Effect of ginsenoside Rg3 and gemcitabine on VEGF expression of tumors. A: Immunohistochemical staining of VEGF (200×). a: control group; b: gemcitabine group; c: ginsenoside Rg3 group; d: combination group. B: VEGF score. VEGF staining was scored semiquantitatively as the intensity of the immunoreactive reaction and positive percent of tumor cells. Score 0 to 1 was as negative (-), 2 to 3 as weak expression (1+), 3 to 4 as moderate expression (2+) and above 5 as strong expression (3+). 1: control group; 2: gemcitabine group; 3: ginsenoside Rg3 group; 4: combination group.
