Fig. 2

Tumor growth in the femur window (FW) and dorsal skinfold chamber (DSC) during 21 days as absolute (a) and relative (b) values. The Fig. a shows the significant higher tumor burden of LnCap and Du145 cells in striated muscle than in bone. The tumor burden of Pc3 cells was higher in striated muscle than in bone, although the difference was not statistically significant. In Fig. b the growth of Pc3 cell-derived tumors was significantly greater in bone than in striated muscle on days 14 and 21. LnCap cells showed greater tumor growth in bone than in striated muscle tissue on day 14. The growth of Du145 cells showed no significant differences during the observation period
