Characteristics of mice observed. (A) Survival curves for the 25 nontumor-bearing experimental mice and 54 tumor-bearing experimental mice observed during cerebral microdialysis showing that all but 1 death occurred during the first 4 h of observation (P = 0.43). (B) Number of mice observed for each tumor model. A total of 54 CNS tumor-bearing mice were included in the experimental group; mice were implanted with ependymoma (EPY), choroid plexus carcinoma (CPC), pediatric glioma (GLI), or medulloblastoma (MB) tumor cells. (C) Comparison of body weight between control and experimental mice.
