Conditional inactivation of VEGF-A in areas of collagen2a1 expression results in embryonic lethality in the heterozygous state
Abstract
VEGF-A has been implicated in regulating the initial angiogenic invasion events that are essential for endochondral bone formation. VEGF-A mRNA expression was indeed found in the sclerotome of the developing somite and in the limb-bud mesenchyme at E10.5 in mouse development but declined during chondrogenesis and became upregulated in hypertrophic chondrocytes prior to angiogenic invasion. To determine the functional importance of VEGF-A expression in the developing chondrogenic tissues, VEGF-A was conditionally inactivated during early embryonic development using Collagen2a1-Cre transgenic lines. Deletion of a single VEGF-A allele in Collagen2a1-Cre-expressing cells results in embryonic lethality around E10.5. This lethality is characterized by aberrant development of the dorsal aorta and intersomitic blood vessels, along with defects in the developing endocardial and myocardial layers of the heart. A small percentage of VEGFFlox/+, Collagen2a1-Cre fetuses survive until E17.5, show aberrant endochondral bone formation and develop a heart phenotype resembling a dilated form of ischemic cardiomyopathy. These results provide insights into the function of VEGF-A in heart and endochondral bone formation and underscore the importance of tightly controlled levels of VEGF-A during development.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
