Caption | Absence of Pten in the mesenchyme does not affect lung morphogenesis, but leads to increased mesenchymal cell proliferation. (A-D) Histological analysis of E18.5 lungs. Ptentm1Hwu/Ptentm1Hwu (Ptenfl/fl) and Ptentm1Hwu/Ptentm1Hwu Twist2tm1.1(cre)Dor/Twist2+ (Ptenfl/fl;Dermo-Cre) lungs were hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stained. Representative control and mutant sections are shown. No macroscopic differences were detected between the control and mutant embryos except for increased cell density (D versus C). Scale bars: 100 um (A and B); 50 um (lower magnification), 20 um (higher magnification) (C and D). (E and F) Increased cell proliferation in conditional mutant mice compared with controls. IF for E-CAD and PH3, showing increased proliferation in conditional mutant mesenchyme (F) compared with Ptentm1Hwu/Ptentm1Hwu (E). Scale bars: 50 um. | ||||||
