Radial alveolar counts. Radial alveolar counts (RAC) were performed on hematoxylin and eosin-stained tissue sections from conditionally targeted (n = 7) and littermate control (n = 8) mice at 8 weeks of age. There is a significant 17% reduction in the number of alveoli in conditionally targeted mice (mean number of 8.2 vs. 9.9, p = 0.045). Error bars represent standard deviation.
