Serca2 deletion in the mouse adult Bmi1+ compartment induces a lethal phenotype involving a severe gastric dysfunction

Figure 2 Inducible deletion of Serca2 in the Bmi1⁺ populations in the gastric tract. Cryosections prepared from DSerca2^Bmi1homo and control (Bmi1-DTmt) mice [0 day-7 days post-tamoxifen (Tx)]; samples were stained for Ki67 analysis and counterstained with 4’,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole. A: Cryosections from esophagus and stomach, were prepared from 5 days post-Tx mice (n = 4); B: Samples from small intestine, 0 day-7 days post-Tx (n = 3) were prepared (several sections were analyzed for each animal). Representative images. Scale bars: 100 μm.
