Higher tumor burden coupled with higher metastasis in arthritic versus nonarthritic breast cancer-bearing mice. (A, B) Significant increase in tumor burden in SKG versus Balb/C (*P < 0.05) and arthritic PyV MT versus PyV MT (*P < 0.05) mice. (C, D) Percentage of lung and bone metastasis, respectively. (E) Light-microscopic images of circulating tumor cells cultured from peripheral blood of arthritic versus nonarthritic tumor-bearing mice. (A through E, 10 mice).
