Defect in angioblast differentiation in Pten^tm1Hwu/Pten^tm1Hwu Twist2^{tm1.1(cre)Dor}/Twist2⁺ Kdr^tm1Jrt/Kdr⁺ (Pten^{fl/fl;Dermo-Cre} Flk1^LacZ) lungs showing increased Kdr (Flk1)-positive cells, a marker for angioblasts in the mutant lungs. (B and C) Whole mount Beta-gal staining of the left lobe. Increased Kdr (Flk1)-positive cells in the mutant lungs compared with control was observed. (D and E) Double staining showed majority of Kdr (Flk1)-positive cells are PECAM (a marker for mature endothelial cells) negative. Scale bars: 25 um (lower magnification), 50 um (higher magnification) (B-E).
