Direct demonstration of instabilities in oxygen concentrations within the extravascular compartment of an experimental tumor.
- Published 2006 in Cancer research
Abstract
To test the hypothesis that temporal variations in microvessel red cell flux cause unstable oxygen levels in tumor interstitium, extravascular oxygenation of R3230Ac mammary tumors grown in skin-fold window chambers was measured using recessed tip polarographic microelectrodes. Red cell fluxes in microvessels surrounding pO2 measurement locations were… (More)
