a, Schematic of breeding, embryonic stem cell engineering, allelic configuration, and staging of KPCTRE-shRNA ESC PDAC. Dashed line defines tumour mass detected by ultrasound, K, kidney. b, Representative whole mount bright field and fluorescent gross pathology of PDAC arising in context of adjacent premalignant (Pre-M) tissue in KPCshRenilla and KPCshp53 mice. c, Survival curve of KPCTRE-shRenilla (n = 33) and KPCTRE-shp53 (n = 21) mice. Significance of difference in survival curves assessed by log rank (Mantel-Cox) test. d, Kate and GFP flow cytometry of primary cultures of dissociated shRenilla and shp53 KPCTRE pancreas following PDAC development at indicated passages. e, PCR detection of recombined versus wild type alleles for Kras and p53 in primary cultures from indicated samples at passage 6. f, Representative flow cytometry plot distinguishing single Kate positive (SP) from double Kate/GFP positive (DP) cells after PDAC development in a KPCshRenilla mouse. g, PCR detection of recombined versus wild type alleles for Kras, p53, as well as shRNA and RIK transgenes in DP and SP cells sorted from KPCshRenilla mice following PDAC development and cell lines generated from PDAC arising in KPCshp53 mice. h, (Top) Digital PCR detecting relative levels of recombined conditional p53 allele, WT p53, and GFP targeted CHC cassette and (bottom) KrasG12D and WT Kras alleles in DP (n = 16) and SP (n = 19) cells sorted from KPCTRE-shRenilla PDAC. i, Relative copy number of chromosome 11 inferred from sparse whole genome sequencing from PDAC arising in KPCshRenilla and KPCshp53 mice (n = 4 each). Normalized segment values are centred around a mean value of 1 with segment values below 1 indictive of deletion events. j, Representative, matched immunofluorescence of GFP and mKate and immunohistochemistry of p53 in sequential sections in a KPCshRenilla PDAC. h, mean ± S.D. Scale bars b, 1 cm, j 50 μm. e and g were repeated at least twice with similar results, and j was repeated 3 times with similar results. Gel source data for e and g, see Supplementary Fig. 1. Gating strategy of d and f, see Supplementary Fig. 2.
