Cap and DHC inhibit the growth of U251 human glioma tumor xenografts in a BALB/c nude mouse xenograft model. (A) Average tumor volume, measured using vernier calipers. Data are presented as the mean ± standard error (n=6–7 mice per group). (B) Average wet weight of tumors following 3 weeks of treatment. Data are presented as the mean ± standard error (n=6–7 mice per group). *P<0.05, **P<0.01 vs. control. (C) Morphological changes in tumors, visualized by hematoxylin and eosin staining. (D) Immunohistochemical analysis of cytochrome c immunoreactivity in dissected tumors. Cap, capsaicin; DHC, dihydrocapsaicin.
