Fig. 5. — Morphology of Erg^Δ^Ex4/+ and Erg^Δ^Ex4/^Δ^Ex4 embryos. (A,B) At E9.5, lacZ expression in Erg^ΔEx4/+ is seen in all embryonic vasculature. The Erg^ΔEx4/ΔEx4 embryos were smaller (B), but did not display any other significant morphological differences when compared with controls (A). (C,D) By E10.5, Erg^ΔEx4/ΔEx4 embryos (D) were notably smaller than control littermates (C), were paler and displayed disrupted vessels associated with hematoma (arrows). (E,F) Surviving Erg^ΔEx4/ΔEx4 embryos at E11.5 (F) showed a dramatic reduction in size and development compared with controls (E).
