Figure 4 Growth of LoVo, LoVo/null, LoVo/bCDwt, and LoVo/bCD-D314A xenografts treated with PBS or 5-fluorocytosine. Treatment was started on 14 d after tumor cell inoculation. PBS or 5-fluorocytosine (5-FC) (500 mg/kg) was injected intraperitoneal once a day for 14 d. Data points represent the mean tumor volume of each group of animals. bCD: Bacterial cytosine deaminase; bCDwt: Wild-type bCD; bCD-D314A: bCD mutant D314A; LoVo/null: LoVo cell transfected with pLJM1-GFP; LoVo/bCDwt: LoVo cell transfected with pLJM1-bCDwt-GFP; LoVo/bCD-D314A: LoVo cell transfected with pLJM1-bCD-D314A-GFP.
