Figure 5 Effects of three anticancer drugs on the growth and morphology of SW480 spheres.
SW-480 spheres were imaged using a three-dimensional imaging system on days 0, 1, 3, 5, and 7 after anticancer drug treatment. Day 7 spheres were examined using scanning electron microscopy. Black scale bar = 200 μm; white thick scale bar = 100 μm; white thin scale bar = 50 μm. 5-FU: 5-fluorouracil; SEM: Scanning electron microscopy.
