Figure 4

TIMP-1 deficient mice are not protected from hepatic carcinogenesis. Liver carcinogenesis was induced via juvenile DEN injection. (a) No differences between TIMP-1 wt and ko could be observed in tumor number or size. (b) TIMP-1 wt and ko show the same liverweight/bodyweight ratio. (c) ALT level were not induced following DEN treatment and did not differ between TIMP-1 wt and TIMP-1 ko. (d) Representative pictures of excised livers and (e) in vivo MRI images show equal tumor load of livers. Bar columns represent mean ± standard error of the mean. (n = 16–22).
