FEV overexpression suppresses tumor xenografts growth in vivo. (a and b) Lentivector-mediated overexpression of FEV in PC-3 cells completely blocked subcutaneous tumor regeneration. Tumor growth was monitored for 44 days (PC-3) after tumor cell injection. (c) Tumor wet weights in FEV overexpression and negative control groups were shown. (d) A tumor growth curve is shown. PC-3 () cells transfected with FEV-expressing lentivectors or the mock control were administered to nude mice by subcutaneous injection. The tumor sizes were measured at four-day intervals as soon as the tumors were measurable. and using the Student’s -test. The data are presented as the .
