Effect of ugonin J on the growth of MCF-7 orthotopic tumor model. (a) SCID mice bearing MCF-7 orthotopic tumor were administrated weekly once with Doxorubicin (12 mg/kg) or ugonin J (50 mg/kg). Each group used 6 mice. The tumor volumes of SCID mice were measured weekly when the treatment began. (b) The average tumor volume of MCF-7 tumors was removed from SCID after 4 weeks. *** , ** versus DMSO control or Doxorubicin. (c) Hematoxylin-Eosin stain and immunohistochemical detection (×200) for NANOG and MUC1 on control, doxorubicin-treated, and ugonin J-treated tumor xenografts.
