Use of H19 Gene Regulatory Sequences in DNA-Based Therapy for Pancreatic Cancer

Figure 6

Effect of DTA-H19 treatment in Tumor Growth Progression and ex vivo tumor size on the orthotopic pancreatic carcinoma in the hamster. (a) Average of tumor growth progression of the DTA-H19 ( 𝑛 = 9) and Luc-H19 ( 𝑛 = 7) treated groups calculated as the ratio of tumor size at the end of the experiment (day 11 after cells implantation) compared to the size before treatment (day 7 after cells implantation). (b) Average of ex vivo tumor volume of the treated (DTA-H19) and control group (Luc-H19) measured after sacrifice (day 11). (c) The left picture corresponds to a tumor treated with DTA-H19 plasmid, and the right picture corresponds to a tumor from the control group.
