Phenotypic information | Ophthalmic observations found reduced mean artery-to-vein ratio in the homozygous mutant mice as compared to wild-type littermates. In microscopic examination, homozygotes showed signs of retinal degeneration characterized by a reduction in thickness of external nuclear and photoreceptor layers as well as vacuolization of photoreceptor and external plexiorm layers. The male homozygotes also had a higher mean total tissue mass and mean total body fat as compared to the gender-matched wild-type littermates. RT-PCR analysis revealed that the transcript was absent in the homozygous mutant mice. |
