Figure 4. STING in hematopoietic cells contributes to DMBA-induced carcinogenesis.

Figure 4

(a) Schematic representation of bone marrow transplantation (BMT). (b) STING expression level in peripheral blood mononucleated cell 4 weeks post BMT. Transplant groups are labelled as: donor bone marrow > recipient. (c) Percentage of skin-tumour-free mice and (d) number of skin tumours from DMBA-treated mice previously transplanted with bone marrow as indicated. N = 7 per group. Results are shown in the Kaplan–Meier curve. P value of tumour incidence between group 1 and group 2 was calculated from the log-rank test. (e) Representative photographs of skin tumours and haematoxylin/eosin staining of the mice same as in c. Images are shown at original magnification, × 200; bar size, 200 µm. NS, not significant.
