Effects of CI-1040 in a mouse xenograft model. (A) CI-1040-treated cells produced small tumour nodules in the peritoneal cavity. However, the diluent control-treated cells grew much larger i.p. tumours in KRAS mutant MDAH2774 cells. (B) In contrast, there were no differences in tumour weights between CI-1040-treated cells and control-treated cells in wild-type (WT) KRAS/BRAF SKOV3 cells. Tumours were excised and weighed. The data are expressed as the total tumour weight from each mouse. (C and D) Immunohistochemical staining of phosphorylated extracellular-regulated kinase 1/2 (p-ERK1/2) in tumours with KRAS mutant MDAH2774 cells. (C) Intense immunoreactivity is present in both the nucleus and the cytoplasm in CI-1040-untreated tumour. (D) Immunoreactivity is absent in both the nucleus and the cytoplasm in CI-1040-untreated tumour cells.
