Fig. 9From: Colorectal cancer-derived microvesicles modulate differentiation of human monocytes to macrophagesCytotoxic/cytostatic activity of MDM against tumour cells. Monocytes were differentiated in the presence of TMVs and then cocultured with appropriate tumour cells for 48 h (a Caco-2, b SW480, c SW620, d LoVo). Proliferation of cells was determined by MTT reduction assay. The results of five independent experiments are shown (mean ± SD). *p < 0.05Back to article page
