Effect of RADA16-I on K562 tumor growth. We analyzed the effect of RADA16-I on K562 tumor growth by using mouse models. (A) After treatment with RADA16-I, average tumor weight in treatment group (1.51 ± 0.08 g) was markedly decreased as compared with that in control group (2.72 ± 0.50 g), data shown are Means ± SEM, P < 0.05. (B) Histological examination of tumors. Tumors were fixed with formaldehyde, and sectioned for histological examination by H & E staining. H & E staining showed that massive cell death existed in tumors treated by RADA16-I compared with the controls. These results suggested that RADA16-I could inhibit the K562 tumor growth in vivo.
