Abstract excerpt
Somatic activating Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homologue (KRAS) mutations have been reported in patients with arteriovenous malformations. By producing LSL-Kras (G12D); Cdh5 (PAC)-CreERT2 [iEC-Kras (G12D*)] mice, we hoped to activate KRAS within vascular endothelial cells (ECs) to generate an arteriovenous malformation mouse model. Neonatal mice were treated daily with tamoxifen from postnatal (PN) days...
