We employed hydrodynamic injection as previously described in detail [47]. The dosage of pT3-EF1α-HA-myr-AKT (AKT) and pT3-EF1α-YapS127A (Yap) plasmids was 20 and 30 μg, respectively. To suppress the canonical Notch signaling, we applied 60 μg pT3-EF1α-dnRBPJ or 60 μg pT3-EF1α together with AKT and Yap plasmids in FVB/N mice. In transgenic models, we injected 60 μg pCMV-Cre or 60 μg empty pCMV vector together with AKT/Yap. Mice were housed, fed, and monitored according to protocols approved by the Committee for Animal Research at the University of California San Francisco (San Francisco, CA).
