Cover: Micro-computed tomography images of the spines and ribs of control (left) and induced SHP-2-deficient (right) adult mice. SHP-2-deficient mice show spinal curvature (kyphosis and scoliosis), osteopetrosis and ectopic calcified growths. The induced SHP-2-deficient mouse serves as a useful model for understanding how mutations of the PTPN11 gene (which encodes SHP-2) cause skeletal malformations in humans.
