Endothelium-specific loss of murine thrombomodulin disrupts the protein C anticoagulant pathway and causes juvenile-onset thrombosis
2001-08-15
Abstract excerpt
The thrombomodulin (TM) gene was ablated in mice in a cell type–restricted manner from vascular endothelium by Cre-recombinase–mediated excision controlled by the endothelial cell lineage–specific Tie2 promoter. Forty percent of mutant (TMLox-) mice display a distinct lethal embryonic phenotype not observed in completely TM-deficient embryos. The remaining 60% of TMLox mice survive beyond birth, but invariably suc...
