Supplementary Table 1 and Fig 1-8 including legends from Platelet-Specific PDGFB Ablation Impairs Tumor Vessel Integrity and Promotes Metastasis

Supplementary Table 1 and Fig 1-8 including legends. Table S1: Observed and expected numbers of Pf4-Cre;Pdgfbfl/fl embryos at different developmental stages. Figure S1: Platelet-specific PDGFB knockout embryos display no obvious abnormalities. Figure S2: Platelet counts and proportion in peripheral blood from WT and pl-PDGFB KO mice. Figure S3: Generation of RIP1-Tag2 mice lacking PDGFB in platelets. Figure S4: Lack of platelet PDGFB does not affect the angiogenic switch or tumor growth in RT2 mice. Figure S5: Tumor vessels in MC38 colon carcinoma in mice with platelet-specific PDGFB ablation have impaired function and decreased pericyte coverage. Figure S6: Increased spontaneous lung metastasis in mice with platelet-specific PDGFB ablation in the HCmel12 melanoma model. Figure S7: Reduced pericyte coverage already in pre-tumorigenic tissue in mice lacking PDGFB in platelets. Figure S8: Expression of Cxcl3, Cxcl5, Cxcl7 and Cxcl15 in tumor tissue from Pf4-Cre- and Pf4-Cre+ mice.
