Vitamin D increases EO771 tumor progression in overweight mice. EO771 cells were injected in the fat pad of the mammary glands (n = 8) of female mice fed with high-fat diet. (A) The tumor size was measured with a caliper. The values of tumor volume (mm³) are reported (Mean ± SEM). (B) Tumors were weighed at the end of the experiment (g). (C) CD8+ T cells and their markers were quantified by flow cytometry. Statistical significance between control and VD groups was determined by two-tailed Student's t-test. ^*P < 0.05.
