Expression of MGP, pulmonary endothelial and epithelial makers, and hepatic markers in Cd31+ and CD31− pulmonary cells of Mgp+/+ and Mgp−/− mice. (a) Expression of MGP in embryonic lung from E12.5 to E18.5 (n = 5). (b) Expression of MGP in CD31+ and CD31− cells isolated from lung and liver (n = 3). (c) Relative gene expression in CD31+ and CD31− cells isolated from lung and liver in Mgp+/+ and Mgp−/− mice (n = 3). (d) Expression of MGP in liver at E18.5 was analyzed by two-sided t test. ***, P < 0.001. Error bars are standard deviation. Data distribution was assumed to be normal, but this was not formally tested. Bars, 50 µm.
