Figure 8. FAK is not required for normal mammary gland function in vivo.

Figure 8

A. Wildtype (WT) and FAK fx/fx;BLG-Cre Tg (FAK −/−) mice were put through two rounds of pregnancy, and mammary glands isolated on day 18 (P18) of the second pregnancy. Whole mounts of the glands were prepared and show no significant difference in the presence of absence of FAK. Scale bar = 5 mm. B. H and E staining of mammary glands from second pregnancy P18, lactation day 2 and 8 (L2, L8), and involution day 2 (I2) wildtype (WT) and FAK fx/fx;BLG-Cre Tg (FAK −/−) mice. There was no difference in the morphology of the acini, and both showed the clear presence of fat globules indicative of milk production. Scale bar = 800 μM.
