In vivo tumorigenic capacity of NGF-treated SCLC cells

Mice with tumors
Untreated SCLC cells 7/7
NGF-treated SCLC cells 0/8

Female athymic Nu/Nu mice were xenografted in the dorsal region with either 107 NCI-N-592 cells or 107 NCI-N-592 cells previously exposed to 50 ng/ml NGF for 15 days. Tumor volume in mice receiving untreated cells was calculated by determining perpendicular diameters with callipers. Experiment was terminated 2 months after cell injection.
