  1. Tumor comparisons have only been made for days 16 and 21 due to the difficult in obtaining sufficient samples at earlier stages (days 5 and 10). Comparisons between liver tissues, however, have been made at all stages (Days 5, 10, 16 and 21 post-tumor induction). Values were considered significant for P < 0.05 (highlighted in bold).
