Myh10 deficiency causes emphysema-like phenotypes. a H&E staining of wild-type (n = 10) and Gli1-Myh10cKO (n = 8) P7 lungs. Quantification of alveolar space in wild-type and Gli1-Myh10cKO P7 lungs. b Immunostaining for α-SMA in wild-type (n = 10) and Gli1-Myh10cKO (n = 8) P7 lungs. Arrows point to secondary septae. Quantification of secondary septae length in wild-type and Gli1-Myh10cKO P7 lungs. c Immunostaining for Tropoelastin in wild-type (n = 10) and Gli1-Myh10cKO (n = 8) P7 lungs. Arrowheads point to truncated elastin fibers. d H&E staining and morphometric analysis of alveolar space in wild-type (n = 8) and Gli1-Myh10cKO (n = 6) adult lungs. Arrowheads point to macrophages. e Immunostaining for MMP2, tropoelastin, and fibronectin in wild-type (n = 8) and Gli1-Myh10cKO (n = 6) adult lungs. Arrowheads point to truncated elastin fibers. Error bars are means ± s.e.m. ***P < 0.001, ****P < 0.0001, two-tailed Student’s t-test. Scale bars: 50 μm (a, d), 30 μm (b, c (left), e (left, right)), 15 μm (c (right), e (middle))
