Number and size of intestinal tumors. Tumors from the gastrointestinal tract were counted and measured under a dissection microscope. (A) Number of intestinal tumors per mouse. In the irinotecan treated groups, ad libitum (AL) fed and fasted (F) mice had respectively 14.0 ± 3.6 and 14.6 ± 2.5 tumors per intestine. In control groups, ad libitum (AL) fed and fasted (F) mice had respectively 16.4 ± 3.1 and 17.3 ± 3.3 tumors per intestine. (B) Size of all intestinal tumors. Tumor size in irinotecan treated mice was 2.4 ± 0.82 mm in fasted, and 2.4 ± 0.67 mm in ad libitum fed and fasted mice respectively. In control groups this was 2.8 ± 1.08 mm and 3.0 ± 1.05 mm (P < 0.001).
