Immune suppression facilitates tumor cell survival in the yolk. Approximately 500 tfRFP-B16 cells were injected into the yolk sac of fish at 2 dpf. At 4 dpf (2 dpi), dexamethasone (Dex) dissolved in ethanol was added into the water at a final concentration of 1 or 10 µg/ml to fish culture for 2 days to inhibit the immune system. The corresponding ethanol-containing water (0.1%) was used as a negative control (Control). Vessels are green and tumor cells are red. Scale bars, 500 µm. (d) Quantification shows that tumor cells survived much better in fish when immune system was inhibited by 10 µg/ml Dex. Mean+s.e.m.; n=12 larvae for each condition; ***p < 0.001. |
