Tumor Suppression in Mice

Caption

Comparison of tumor suppression in the lungs of wild mice (top row) and 'humanized' mice (bottom row). First column represents untreated mice. Second column, mice treated with KRN7000, a synthesized compound. Third column, mice treated with a new compound, AH10-7. Results show the newly synthesized compound AH10-7 is at least as effective as KRN7000 in suppressing growth of melanoma cells.
