Fig 3. Postnatal growth retardation and lethality of miR-29 null mice.

Fig 3

(A) Expression of miR-29a/b/c is undetectable in lungs of miR-29 DKO mice (n = 3). (B) miR-29 null mice are significantly smaller as compared to their littermates two weeks after birth (n = 5). (C) Representative image of miR-29 null mice at age four weeks. (D) Survival cure of miR-29 null mice (n = 15 for DKO and n = 19 for WT). All miR-29 null mice die within 6 weeks of birth, while none of wild type littermates died in the same period. Data are mean ± SEM; Student’s t test, * P<0.05; ** P<0.01.
