Figure 8

Effect of active and inactive rTOP on tumor cell development and animal survival after subcutaneous implantation of B16F10-Nex2 melanoma cells. 5 × 104 viable cells were injected subcutaneously with 8 μg of active rTOP (A, B, open circle), inactive rTOP (C, D, open circle), and PBS (control, solid circle) in C57Bl/6 mice (4–5 animals per group). The tumor volume was measured every 2–3 days and a maximal volume of 3 cm3 was allowed before sacrifice. (B, D), tumor volume of individual animals; (A, C), survival plots. Statistical analysis of survivals was performed using Kaplan-Meier test.
