FIGURE 1.

Rb1+/−;p27T187A/T187A mice do not develop pituitary tumors. A, representative coronal sections of mouse pituitaries were stained with H&E. The three pituitary lobes are marked. PL, posterior lobe; IL, intermediate lobe; AL, anterior lobe. Rb1+/− mice at 6 months of age (n = 5) contained one to two IL tumors as marked by black arrows, while Rb1+/−,p27T187A/T187A mice at 9 months of age (n = 5) contained pituitaries identical to those in WT and p27T187A/T187A mice. B, representative p27 IHC sections showing low level staining in WT, Rb1+/−, p27T187A/T187A, and Rb1+/−;p27T187A/T187A IL, under the H&E images of the same genotypes. C, in the same experiment, POMC-Cre;Rb1lox/lox;Trp53lox/lox;Skp2−/− IL showed robust p27 staining. Scale bars, 100 μm.
