From: Anti-tumor effect of Liqi, a traditional Chinese medicine prescription, in tumor bearing mice
Effect of Liqi on platelet aggregation in tumor-bearing mice. Lewis lung carcinoma cells were subcutaneously implanted (2 × 106 LLC tumor cells suspended in 50 μl of PBS) in the right axillary region of syngeneic C57BL/6 mice. After 24 h, Liqi (50 g/kg) was administrated daily by gavage for 21 days. Platelet aggregation was monitored by measuring electric impedance using a whole-blood aggregometer. Results are expressed as the mean ± S.D. of 12 mice. *P < 0.05, compared with untreated control of tumor-transplanted animals (model group). The normal group indicates healthy animals without tumor xenograft for comparison.
