Diagram of tail biopsy procedure. The distal 5 mm of tail was transected in all mice, and then the next most distal 10 mm of tail was collected for histopathology. Cetacaine was applied directly to the site of transection. For ethyl chloride application, Vasoline was applied to along the length of the tail, sparing the most distal 1 cm in these mice.
