Figure 5. Effects of JCo extract on tumor growth in tumor-bearing nude mice.

HepG₂ cells were subcutaneously injected into the right flank of female nude mice (n=3). Mice were divided into an experimental and a control group (n=5), and both groups were subcutaneously injected with mineral oil (100 μg/ml), while only the experimental group also received JCo extract (200 mg/kg). Tumor volumes were determined every 2 days. (A) Tumor volume (mm³); (B) survival rate (%). *: significant differences between the experimental and control group (P<0.05).
