Etv2 is associated with cellular proliferation during embryogenesis. (a) Immunohistochemical analysis of transgenic Etv2-EYFP mouse embryos5 at E8.5. The boxed region is magnified and shown in the right panels. White arrowheads indicate EYFP+/Ki67+ double-positive cells. (b) Quantitative analysis of EYFP+ and Ki67+ cells in the Etv2-EYFP transgenic embryo sections. (bd) qPCR analysis of cell cycle gene expression from zsGreen and zsGreen+ cells sorted from Etv2-zsGreen1-DR11 EBs on D3 or D4 of differentiation. Pro-proliferative cell cycle genes Ccnd2 and Cdk7, showed increased expression in zsGreen+ cells, while expression of Cdkn2a, a cell cycle repressor, was decreased in zsGreen+ cells relative to zsGreen cells. Data are presented as mean ± SEM (n = 3 replicates; *p < 0.05).
