Table 1. Quantification of morphological changes in the tumor-bearing organ (TINT-changes) in rats carrying AT-1 tumors and in different controls.

AT-1 tumors RPMI-medium controls Heat-killed AT-1 controls
Volume density of CD68 + cells (%) 1.1 +/- 0.46 a 0.18 +/- 0.075 0.18+/-0.094 b
Volume density of blood vessels (%) 1.9 +/- 0.34 a 0.86 +/- 0.20 0.75+/-0.26 b
Endothelial BrdU- labeling index 23 +/- 5.1 a 1.3 +/- 0.45 1.5+/-0.64 b
Volume density of Mast cells (%) 0.34 +/- 0.10 a 0.20 +/- 0.10 0.20 +/-0.060 b

Values are means +/- SD, n = 7–9 animals in each group.

a Significantly different than in both controls,

b Not significantly different from that in RPMI injected animals, p < 0.05
