Apoptosis in E12.5 dorsal root ganglia and liver

Genotype (n)	Dorsal root ganglia (cells/field)	Liver (cells/field)
bcl-x^+/^/casp9^+/^(6)	7.5 ± 1.1	9.9 ± 1.5
bcl-x^−/−/casp9^+/^*(6)	17.2 ± 1.4^*	21.0 ± 1.2^*
bcl-x^+/^/casp9^−/(7)	0.8 ± 0.4^*	10.6 ± 1.8
bcl-x^−//casp9^−/ (4)	0.7 ± 0.8^*	18.2 ± 1.4^*

Bouin's fixed sagittal sections from paraffin-embedded E12.5bcl-x^+/^*/casp9⁺/^*, bcl-x^−/−/casp9^+/^*, bcl-x^+/^*/casp9^−/−, andbcl-x^−/−/casp9^−/− mice were TUNEL-labeled (^* denotes + or −). The number of embryos analyzed is shown in parentheses. The mean number of positive cells and SEM per 60× field were determined for each group.

p < 0.05 versus bcl-x^+/^*/casp9^+/^*using Kruskal–Wallis ANOVA on ranks.
