Vegfr2 heterozygosity impairs Lewis lung carcinoma (LLM) tumor growth, angiogenesis, and VEGFR2 phosphorylation. (a) LLC tumor volume 20 days post tumor cell inoculation showing a significant decrease in Vegfr2Cre/+ compared to control wild type mice (n = 5–6). (b,c) Immunofluorescent staining (b) and quantitation (c) of CD31-positive tumor vasculature and phospho-VEGFR2 (yellow arrows) showing a significant decrease in Vegfr2Cre/+ compared to control mouse (n = 5–6). Two-way repeated-measures ANOVA with Sidak’s multiple comparism-test (a) and two-tailed Student’s t-test (c) were used to analyze significance (*p < 0.05; ***p < 0.001) compared to control.
