Figure 3From: Characterization of human malignant mesothelioma cell lines orthotopically implanted in the pleural cavity of immunodeficient mice for their ability to grow and form metastasis Orthotopic MPM histology. Fig. 3a. Frozen sections of tumors grown into the pleural cavity of nude mice injected with IST-Mes3 cells were stained with an anti-mouse CD31 antibody. Tumors were intensively stained revealing an intricate network of microvessels. Bar = 500 μm. Fig. 3b. H&E staining of tumor invading the lung. T: tumor, L: lung. Bar = 100 μm.Back to article page
