Effect of LQ on tumor blood vessels.

<p>LLC-RFP cells were grown in nestin-driven GFP (ND-GFP) transgenic nude mice in which nascent blood vessel expressed GFP. Three mice were used in each group. In the LQ-treated mice, tumor blood vessels appeared to be destroyed. The GFP florescence of blood vessels was quantitated for area, density, integrated optical density (IOD), length and counts. The measurements indicated that LQ decreased blood vessels by 50%.
