(A) Control, Itgb1^tm1Ref/Itgb1^tm12.1Ref Tg(KRT5-cre)5132Jlj/0 (YY/AA), Itgb1^tm1Ref/Itgb1^tm1Ref Tg(KRT5-cre)5132Jlj/0 (K5-Beta1), and Itgb1^tm1Ref/Itgb1^tm5.1Ref Tg(KRT5-cre)5132Jlj/0 (hpm) mutant mice at the age of 2 weeks. Itgb1^tm1Ref/Itgb1^tm12.1Ref Tg(KRT5-cre)5132Jlj/0 (YY/AA) and Itgb1^tm1Ref/Itgb1^tm1Ref Tg(KRT5-cre)5132Jlj/0 (K5-Beta1) mice have a reddish skin with a reduced number of hairs and blisters, whereas the hair coat of the Itgb1^tm1Ref/Itgb1^tm5.1Ref Tg(KRT5-cre)5132Jlj/0 (hpm) mice is only mildly affected. (B) HE-stained paraffin sections of back skin derived from P14 mice show aberrant hair follicle morphogenesis of the skin. The mutant hair follicles fail to grow as deeply into the subcutis as in the littermate control mice and are abnormally shaped. Itgb1^tm1Ref/Itgb1^tm12.1Ref Tg(KRT5-cre)5132Jlj/0 (YY/AA) and Itgb1^tm1Ref/Itgb1^tm1Ref Tg(KRT5-cre)5132Jlj/0 (K5-Beta1) mice have a hyperthickened epidermis and blisters between the epidermis and dermis (arrows). The Itgb1^tm1Ref/Itgb1^tm5.1Ref Tg(KRT5-cre)5132Jlj/0 (hpm) skin displays an intermediate phenotype. (C) High magnification of the HE-stained back skin section showing blister formation (arrows) and aberrant morphology of the basal keratinocytes in Itgb1^tm1Ref/Itgb1^tm12.1Ref Tg(KRT5-cre)5132Jlj/0 (YY/AA) and Itgb1^tm1Ref/Itgb1^tm1Ref Tg(KRT5-cre)5132Jlj/0 (K5-Beta1) mice. (D) Control, Itgb1^tm1Ref/Itgb1^tm12.1Ref Tg(KRT5-cre)5132Jlj/0 (YY/AA), Itgb1^tm1Ref/Itgb1^tm1Ref Tg(KRT5-cre)5132Jlj/0 (K5-Beta1), and Itgb1^tm1Ref/Itgb1^tm5.1Ref Tg(KRT5-cre)5132Jlj/0 (hpm) epidermis examined for LacZ activity as a readout of Cre-mediated beta1 integrin gene deletion. LacZ-positive cells are visible in the epidermis and hair follicles of the Itgb1^tm1Ref/Itgb1^tm12.1Ref Tg(KRT5-cre)5132Jlj/0 (YY/AA), Itgb1^tm1Ref/Itgb1^tm12.1Ref Tg(KRT5-cre)5132Jlj/0 (K5-Beta1), and Itgb1^tm1Ref/Itgb1^tm5.1Ref Tg(KRT5-cre)5132Jlj/0 (hpm) mutant mice.
