From: Axin gene methylation status correlates with radiosensitivity of lung cancer cells
The comparison of xenograft tumor growth between the cell line with a hypermethylated Axin gene (H157) and the cell line with an unmethylated Axin gene (LTE) after X-ray treatment. Figure A shows asignificant decrease in tumor mass in the mice transplanted with X-ray treated cancer cells, particularly in the mice with treated H157 cells in comparison with each control. Figure B shows the curves of time dependent tumor growth. Note X-ray treatment significantly suppresses the growth of tumor xenografts, with a more significant effect noted in H157 cells than in LTE cells.
