Survival effect of probiotics in a rat model of colorectal cancer treated with capecitabine

Figure 4 Light micrograph of three hematoxylin-eosin stained sections from large intestine where a mucinous carcinoma with different degrees of infiltration is observed (magnification: 100 ×). A: 1,2-Dimethylhidrazine dihydrochloride (DMH) group the carcinoma invades the sub-serosa and serosa layers of the colonic wall; B: DMH-capecitabine (DMH-C) group the tumor involves the muscular layer; C: Animal’s carcinoma treated with probiotics, DMH-C-probiotics, shows invasion only until the muscular without compromise (orange arrows).
