Caption Phenotype display of wild-type and Glcetm1Jpli/Glcetm1Jpli embryos born at 18.5 days postcoitus. A: Dissected urogenital systems of wild-type (+/+) and Glcetm1Jpli/Glcetm1Jpli (-/-) male embryos. a, adrenal gland; b, bladder; k, kidney; t, testis. Note complete absence of kidneys in the mutant embryo. B: Lungs from mutants are immature and poorly inflated, with thickened, cell-rich interalveolar septa, compared with wild-type lungs. Tissues were fixed in 10% formalin, sectioned, and stained with hematoxylin and eosin. C: Iris coloboma of mutant mice. D: Skeleton samples were stained with alcian blue-alizarin red to distinguish ossified tissue (red) from cartilage (blue). Multiple abnormalities are seen. E and F: All examined mutant embryos (n=4) lacked two proximal phalanges of the fore paws (E) and the inner phalanx of hind paws (F; arrow indicated tarsal bones). All mutant embryos showed twisted tail (G) and polydactyly on one or both forelimbs (H).
