TUNEL assay.

Notes: Tumor tissue sections of NS-treated group (A), EM-treated group (B), free-Qu-treated group (C), and Qu-M-treated group (D) were stained with TUNEL for the cell apoptosis assay. The results indicate that inducing apoptosis may be one of the antitumor mechanisms of Qu-M and free-Qu in vivo.

Abbreviations: NS, normal saline; EM, empty MPEG–PCL nanomicelles; MPEG–PCL, monomethoxy poly(ethylene glycol)–poly(ε-caprolactone); free-Qu, free quercetin; Qu-M, quercetin-loaded MPEG–PCL nanomicelles.
