Effects of chronic alcohol consumption on NKT cells in the thymus and blood of non-tumor injected mice and tumor-bearing mice after 2 weeks of tumor inoculation. A. (Percentage) and B. (Number) of iNKT cells in the thymus of non-tumor injected mice (Control) and tumor-bearing mice (TB). C (Percentage) and D. (Number) of CD3+NK1.1+ NKT cells and CD4+NK1.1+ NKT cells in the blood of non-tumor injected mice (Control) and tumor-bearing mice (TB). Values are mean± SD for groups containing 8-10 mice. Each experiment was repeated at least twice with similar results. Open bars are water- drinking mice and black bars are alcohol-consuming mice. Control=mice not injected with melanoma. TB=tumor-bearing mice injected with melanoma. Two-tailed Student's t-test was used to analyze the difference between groups. **Different from water-drinking mice within group, p<0.01; ***Different from water-drinking mice within group, p<0.001.
