| Type | MGI:General | Description | adult homozygotes exhibit an abnormal SCG with only a few neuronal cells, some of which appear to be undergoing degeneration although the mutant SCG cell number is normal at E11.5, it reaches 60%-80% of wild-type values between E12.5 and P1, and is only 50% and 0%-5% of wild-type values at P7 and P60, respectively, indicating progressive SCG cell death after birth |
