Intratumoral administration of encapsulated paclitaxel with GW2558 did not alter the metastatic potential of 4T1 tumor cells. Mice were killed 3 days after the last dose injection to check the metastatic colonization of luciferase expressing 4T1 tumor cells. a, b IP-injection of naked paclitaxel decrease the tumor weight. c Although encapsulated paclitaxel (PCL-Pac + GW) showed a tendency towards increased weight, no significant difference were detected for spleen weight between groups. d, e While only micro metastases were observed in the lungs of naked pac-treated animals, two of animals in encapsulated pac-treated group showed macro-metastasis in their lungs. Yet, signal intensity of luciferase was not significantly different between groups. Results are presented as mean ± SD (three mice in each group)
