CRT0066101 reduces MCs recruitment and tumor angiogenesis in vivo. a Experimental setting. b C57BL6 mice bearing RM1 tumors were administered a daily vehicle [control group; 5% (w/v) dextrose] or CRT0066101 at 20 μM and 40 μM for 2 weeks (4 mice per group), then excised tumor images. c Tumor volume were represented at indicated day. d Immunohistochemistry staining for phospho-PKD, microvessel density (stained with CD31), and mast cells (stained with c-Kit). Representative image were shown in 400X under the microscope (Left panel). Quantification of the indicated parameter was analyzed among groups after treatment with CRT0066101 (Right panel). e Schematic model of the mechanistic role of PKD2 and PKD3 in tumor angiogenesis by regulating SCF-, CCL5-, and CCL11-mediated mast cell recruitment
