Fig. 8From: Neutrophil extracellular traps induced by the hypoxic microenvironment in gastric cancer augment tumour growthNETs accelerate tumour growth in vivo via angiogenesis. A and B, Subcutaneous AGS tumour growth was increased in the presence of NET-producing neutrophils from LPS-treated mice in vivo (n = 5 each group). C, Increased angiogenesis in tumours of LPS-treated mice compared to control mice. Representative images of CD31 staining are shown. Magnification: 20 × . Scale bars: 50 μm. All values are the means ± SDs. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01Back to article page
