Figure 2.
Effect of CTX on the volume of the ascites fluid. The animals were inoculated with EAT (1 × 107 cells/0.5 mL) and treated concomitantly with different doses of CTX (0.9 µg/animal and 5.0 µg/animal, in 100 µL of saline, s.c.) or saline (100 µL). On the 6th and 13th day of tumor cell inoculation, ascitic fluid was collected from the peritoneal cavity and the total volume was measured. *** p < 0.001 compared to the control group (EAT + saline) and the CTX-treated group. Values are expressed as mean ± SEM of 5–8 animals per group.
