Figure 5. ERBB2-expressing Becn1+/+ and Becn1+/− iMMECs have similar tumor-forming capacities in nude mice. (A) Independent ERBB2-overexpressing Becn1+/+ and Becn1+/− iMMEC lines (e.g., A and B) were bilaterally implanted into the 3rd mammary fat pads of nude mice. Mice were monitored for tumor growth. Each data point represents the average volume of iMMEC-generated mammary tumors in 5 mice (2 tumors per mouse) per genotype ± SD (B) Representative images of ERBB2, LC3B, SQSTM1, MKI67, and cleaved CASP3 expression, as determined by IHC, in ERBB2-expressing Becn1+/+ (Becn1+/+;ERBB2) and ERBB2-expressing Becn1+/− (Becn1+/−;ERBB2) iMMEC-generated allograft mammary tumors from (A).
