Skeletal abnormalities in Wnt5a-deficient mice. The null mice
fail to form the nasal and premaxilla region of the skull, display fused
thoracic vertebrae and fused or absent sacral and caudal vertebrae, possess an
open and malformed sternum, bifurcated ribs, and display a misshapen and reduced
pelvis. In addition, the forelimbs and hindlimbs of these Wnt5a-deficient mice
are grossly foreshortened.
