Figure 5. ENU-treated mice with Apc haploinsufficiency develop a fatal macrocytic anemia at an accelerated pace, regardless of Egr1 or Tp53 expression. (A) Kaplan-Meier survival curve of Apcdel/+mice, or mice crossed with Egr1+/−; Tp53+/−; or Egr1+/− and Tp53+/−. Mice were treated with 3 doses of pI-pC at 2 months of age, and ENU, where indicated, at 3 months. All mice treated with ENU died at a significantly faster rate (P < .0001). (B) CBC are shown for ENU-treated Apcfl/+and Apcdel/+mice or Apcdel/+mice crossed with Egr1+/−(E), Tp53+/− (P), or Egr1+/−, Tp53+/− (EP). CBCs of Apcdel/+ mice were taken at the time of sacrifice, when the mice were severely anemic and moribund. Blood counts of ENU-treated Apcfl/+ control mice were taken during a similar timeframe, but mice were not moribund. MO, monocytes; PLT, platelets; WBC, white blood cells.
