Figure 5.
At 1, 5, and 10 days post-TACE, at each time point, animals were sacrificed with a pentobarbital overdose. (A) Histological H&E staining in tumor tissue (magnification ×200); IHC staining of TLR4, p-STAT3, COX-2, and TUNEL in tumors (magnification ×200). (B) Quantitative PCR (qPCR) was used to detect TLR4 and COX-2 mRNA levels in tissue. Data are represented as the mean ± standard deviation (SD). ∗∗∗ p < 0.001. (C) Western blotting of tumor tissues.
