Figure 4. Effect of the skeletal abnormality in CNP mutant mice on mortality.

Figure 4

(a) Left set of pictures: gross morphologies of 12-week-old total CNP knockout mice with severe malocclusion (left) and normal occlusion (right) of the incisal teeth. Right: three-dimensional reconstructed image of a 12-week-old Nppc−/− mouse with severe malocclusion. (b) Survival curves of total CNP knockout mice supplied with solid feed (▲) and pulverized feed (Δ). (c) Survival curves of Nppcflox/flox (Δ) and Col2a1-Cre; Nppcflox/flox (◊) mice.
