Figure 1. Mice deleted for intestinal N-WASP are viable and fertile but gain less weight than littermate controls.

Figure 1

(A) Western blot analysis of N-WASP expression in intestinal tissue from eight week-old iNWKO and littermate control mice confirmed complete deletion of N-WASP throughout the small and large intestine. Tubulin was used as a loading control. (B) Appearance of wild type (N-Wasp+/+), iNWKO (NWaspflox/flox tgvil-Cre), and littermate control (N-Waspflox/flox) mice at twelve weeks. (C) Mean change in body weight over time, ±SEM, of iNWKO and littermate control mice. Data represent five mice per group. Black squares: littermate control mice. Green circles: iNWKO mice. (*): indicates a statistical difference between iNWKO and littermate control mice as determined by two-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni post-tests (p<0.05).
