- Metastases lesion areas were determined by measurement of the two-dimensional pixel area. Two diseased lungs, one from the untreated group and one from the DB treated group, could not be reliably measured to include in the analysis. A single asterisk (*) designates lesion areas that were significantly different from pulmonary lesions in untreated mice (p < 0.05). A double asterisk (**) designates lesion areas that were significantly different from pulmonary lesions in untreated mice (p < 0.001).
