Target protectors block miR-19a repression of Pten in the developing mouse cortex. (A–D) Electroporation of the 60 nt target protector at E13.5 for analysis at E14.5 significantly decreased the number of BrdU-incorporating or Ki67+ proliferative cells colabeled with GFP in the cortex. Ectopic expression of full length Pten containing the 3′UTR (Pten-FL-3UTR) showed a similar effect, while co-electroporation of Pten-FL-3UTR and miR-19a ablated this effect. Data are presented as mean ± SD; n ≥ 3 for all electroporations; p values in relation to control (***p < 0.001). Scale bar: 50 μm.
