In vivo mechanism of action in Colo-205 xenograft model. (A) Average signal of total human IGF-IR from lysates of excised tumor, (B) human VEGF concentration (pg/ml) from mouse plasma and (C) Mouse VEGF concentration (pg/ml) from mouse plasma after 2- and 7-day treatments with saline, IR mAb, FcD2 and ID2 were determined by electrochemiluminescent assay. Significant differences in mean (p < 0.05, n = 5) are indicated (a vs Saline; b vs IR mAb; c vs FcD2). (D) Percentage of nuclei with positive immunohistochemistry staining for cleaved caspase-3 from representative tumor tissue after 2-day treatment was compared and plotted as mean ± SEM (n = 5). ID2 treated group had significantly increased cleaved caspase-3 activity compared to saline control (p = 0.0035, one way ANOVA), IR mAb (p = 0.0041, one way ANOVA) and FcD2 (p = 0.0254, one way ANOVA). All charts were generated and statistical analyses were performed with SigmaPlot or Graphpad Prism 6.
