Figure EV3. Ablation of the mitotic surveillance pathway restores brain size and increases survival but does not rescue cilia defects in Sas4cKO animals. Related to Fig 3 .

Figure EV3

  • A
    Telencephalon area of P60 brains of the indicated genotypes. WT littermates N = 6, Trp53bp1 −/− N = 5, Usp28 −/− N = 5, Trp53 −/− N = 4; one‐way ANOVA with post hoc analysis. 4 WT data points are from Fig 1B and shown alongside for comparison.
  • B
    Cortical thickness of P60 brains of the indicated genotypes. WT littermates N = 4, Trp53bp1 −/− N = 3, Usp28 −/− N = 4, Trp53 −/− N = 3; one‐way ANOVA with post hoc analysis. WT data are from Fig EV1B and shown alongside for comparison.
  • C
    Representative histology images of P14 brains of the indicated genotypes. Arrows indicate the enlarged ventricles caused by the lack of motile cilia. Scale bar = 0.2 cm.
  • D
    Kaplan–Meier survival analysis of Sas4cKO, Sas4cKO;Trp53bp1 −/−, Sas4cKO;Usp28cKO, Sas4cKO;Trp53 −/− animals compared to WT littermates. P values were calculated using the log‐rank test.
  • E
    Quantification of total number of cells within a 500 μm‐width column of cortices at P14. WT littermates N = 4, Sas4cKO N = 3, Sas4cKO;Trp53bp1 −/− N = 4, Sas4cKO;Usp28cKO N = 5, Sas4cKO;Trp53 −/− N = 4; one‐way ANOVA with post hoc analysis.
  • F, G
    Quantification of the number of cells in the (F) superficial layer (CUX1+) and (G) deep layer (CTIP2+) within a 500 μm‐width column of P14 cortices. WT littermates N = 3, Sas4cKO N = 3, Sas4cKO;Trp53bp1 −/− N = 4, Sas4cKO;Usp28cKO N = 4, Sas4cKO;Trp53 −/− N = 4; one‐way ANOVA with post hoc analysis.
  • H
    P14 cortices of the indicated genotypes stained with antibodies against the deep layer marker CTIP2 (green), superficial layer marker CUX1 (red) and DAPI (blue). Scale bar = 200 μm.

Data information: All data represent the means ± SEM. *P < 0.05; **< 0.01; ****< 0.0001 and not significant indicates P > 0.05.
