Effect of in vitro pretreatment with SCF on metastatic ability of 6647 cells injected intravenously into nude mice. A: Metastatic ability to the lungs and to extrapulmonary sites. Cross-hatched bars, untreated control cells; solid bars, cells pretreated in vitro with 10 ng/ml of SCF for 48 hours. Metastases were evaluated 31 days after cell injection. Bars represent the median number of metastases; figures reports the number of mice with metastases/total number of mice. Significance: **, P < 0.01; *, P < 0.05 (Wilcoxon’s rank sum test). B: Survival of mice after intravenous injection of untreated cells (open symbols) or cells pretreated in vitro with SCF (closed symbols). Statistical significance was evaluated by the Mantel-Haenszel test.
