Table 2. Tdgf1 Heterozygosity Enhances EtOH-Induced HPE in Cdon-/- Embryos.
| Treatment | Genotype (# embryos with HPE/total (%))* | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cdon+/-;Tdgf1+/- | Cdon-/-;Tdgf1+/+ | Cdon-/-;Tdgf1+/- | ||
| Saline | 0/23 (0%) | 0/11 (0%) | 2/27 (7.4%) | |
| EtOH (2.9 g/kg) | 1/48 (2.1%) | 9/32 (28.1%) | 31/56 (55.4%)** | |
* Crosses between the following genotypes were used to generate the genotypes scored above:.
Cdon+/-;Tdgf1+/- x Cdon+/-;Tdgf1+/-.
Cdon+/-;Tdgf1+/- x Cdo-+/-;Tdgf1+/-.
Cdon+/- x Cdon+/-;Tdgf1+/-.
Cdon+/- x Cdon-/-;Tdgf1+/-.
Cdon-/- x Cdon+/-;Tdgf1+/-.
No HPE was found in offspring genotypes other than those shown.
** p=0.014 by Fisher's two-tailed exact test, when compared to EtOH-treated Cdon-/-; Tdgf1 +/+ embryos.
