LSZ inhibits tumor formation by increasing PTEN levels and blocking the Wnt/β-catenin pathway in vivo. The mice were randomly divided into 2 groups (n=10): LSZ group; mice were injected intraperitoneally (i.p.) with 70 mg/kg LSZ; Control group, mice were subjected to the same volume of physiological saline daily. (A) Tumor growth; (B) tumor weight; (C) tumor volume; (D) the protein levels of PTEN, GSK-3β, Wnt, and β-catenin were detected by western blotting in the control group and LSZ group. (**, P<0.01; ***, P<0.001 vs. control group); (E) the expression level of PTEN was detected by IHC in tumor tissues from the control group and the LSZ group. LSZ, ligustrazine; LC, lung cancer.
