Effect of tomatidine and TRTLE on the tumor growth of an 85As2 syngeneic mouse model. Eight-week-old male BALB/c-AJcl-nu/nu mice were subcutaneously injected with 85As2 cells derived from human gastric cancer tissues. The mice were fed control diets (Control) or diets containing tomatidine (Tomatidine) or TRTLE (TRTLE) for 3 weeks. (a) Body weight (BW), BW after tumor removal (Tumor removal BW), and (b) tumor weight after 3-week experimental period are shown. (c) Total food intake during the 3 weeks of the experimental period is also shown. n = 9–13, means ± standard error (SE). * p < 0.05 vs. Control.
