MX1cre+LRPflox/flox mice (n = 29 and 21 for 10 days and 6 weeks after pI:pC induction, respectively) or control LRPflox/flox mice (n = 18 and 9, for 10 days and 6 weeks after pI:pC induction, respectively) were injected 3 times intraperitoneally with 250 μg pI:pC at 2-day intervals. A parallel group of MX1cre+LRPflox/flox littermates were not induced with pI:pC (n = 5 and 6 for 10 days and 6 weeks after pI:pC induction, respectively). At 10 days and 6 weeks after the final pI:pC injection, blood samples were withdrawn and analyzed for plasma factor VIII and VWF, as described in “Materials and methods.” Data represent geometric mean values and 68% confidence intervals.
P < .001, significantly different from control LRPflox/flox mice with the use of the Mann-WhitneyU test.
P < .05, significantly different from control LRPflox/flox mice with the use of the Mann-WhitneyU test.
