In this study, we used Tie2-Cre to deactivate the Hspd1 gene in both hematopoietic and vascular endothelial cells, and found that Tie2-Cre+Hspd1f/f (HSP60CKO) mice were embryonic lethal between the embryonic day 10.5 (E10.5) and E11.5, exhibiting growth retardation, anemia, and vascular defects. The gene discussed is TEK; the disease is anemia (phenotype).
