Fig. 1. (A) Antisense oligonucleotides to KGFR/Bek decrease branching morphogenesis of E12 SMGs; a representative photograph of each group is shown. (B) The number of terminal buds of at least six glands at each timepoint was counted. There was a significant decrease (ANOVA, ^**P<0.01) in the number of buds in the antisense-treated glands. (C) Antisense oligonucleotides decrease FGFR2 expression by 50%; the expression of FGFR2 was normalized to GAPH.
