Mice were sacrificed at the 30th day after administration, the size and weight of tumors and metastatic condition in liver and lung were determined, levels of CD34 and VEGF mRNA in tumor tissues were detected by immunohistochemical and semi-quantitative RT-PCR, respectively, and microvessel density (MVD) in tumor tissues was also counted.
