ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • Fancg(-/-) mice have normal viability and no gross developmental abnormalities but their primary splenic lymphocytes, bone marrow progenitor cells, and fibroblasts display spontaneous chromosome breakage and increased sensitivity to mitomycin C and ionizing radiation. Fancg(-/-) mice have decreased fertility and abnormal gonadal histology
  • Fancg/Xrcc9 null mice show showed hypogonadism and impaired fertility and hypersensitivity to mitomycin C
  • fancg(-/-) mice presented with microcephalies and a decreased neuronal production in developing cortex and adult brain
