Severe combined immunodeficiency mouse energy intake, weight, and LAPC-4 xenograft growth. Eight-week-old male severe combined immunodeficiency mice were fed either n-6 diet or n-3 diet (n = 15 per group) for 2 weeks prior to injection of 1×105 LAPC-4 in the lateral flank. A, caloric intake was measured for each mouse thrice per week by subtracting the weight of uneaten food from the weight of the food given at the beginning of each feeding period. B, mice were weighed weekly. C, tumor volumes were measured weekly. Points, means; bars, ±SE; two-tailed Student's t test (*, P < 0.05).
