Tumor growth rates in mice treated with INH154 are evidently slower than those in control animals in a dose-dependent manner. In agreement with the tumor-growth data, the tumor proliferation index, determined by measuring BrdU staining, is clearly reduced in residual tumors treated with INH154 in comparison with vehicle alone. The expression levels of Nek2 and Hec1 S165 phosphorylation are also substantially reduced in INH154-treated tumors than in vehicle-treated tumors. On the other hand, mice body weights are measured during the 6.5 weeks treatment period and show little difference among treated and control groups. In addition, the toxicity of INHs by treating normal BALB/c ByJNarl mice with high dosage of INH154 (20 mg/kg) shows no significant difference of body weights, blood chemistry, and complete blood count (CBC) analysis among these groups of animals^[1].
