Figure 3From: Anti-lymphangiogenic properties of mTOR inhibitors in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma experimental models The level of soluble VEGFR-2 was evaluated in serum of SCID mice that were sacrificed on day 21 after injection of the OSC-19 cells. Rapamycin treatment significantly increased the level of soluble VEGFR-2 in serum of SCID mice (p = 0.0001; t-test). Serum samples from 9 control mice and 10 rapamycin-treated mice were evaluated.Back to article page
