Cortactin deficiency leads to increased vascular permeability in vivo. (A) Cttndel/del and CttnWT/WT mice were injected i.v. with Evans blue and 10 min later intradermally with histamine or PBS alone. Animals were sacrificed after an additional 30 min, and the dye was extracted from skin samples and quantified. Data are presented as means ± SD. n = 12 (WT); n = 11 (KO). ***, P < 0.001. Four independent assays with three to four mice per group were performed. (B) Lung lysates from Cttndel/del (KO) and CttnWT/WT (WT) mice were analyzed by Western blot and probed for the indicated proteins. A representative blot from three independent experiments is shown. (C) Whole mount stainings of cremaster muscles from Cttndel/del (KO) and CttnWT/WT (WT) mice for VE-cadherin and ESAM. Images are representative for three independent preparations each. Bars, 50 µm.
