Abstract:
Objective To study the relationship between the microvessel damage and the death rate of tumor cells and determine role of microvessel damage in the tumoricidal effect of hyperthermia.Methods H22 hepatoma cells were inoculated in the right hind legs of KM mice with immunosuppression.Local hyperthermia was administered to these mice which were divided randomly into 10 groups (8 in each group),which included groups of 3,6,12,24,48,72 and 96 h after hyperthermia for 30 min and groups of hyperthermia for 15,30 and 45 min.The tumor tissues were analyzed by flow cytometry(FCM)and immunohistochemistry.The cultured H22 cells were also given hyperthermia for 15,30,45 min and analyzed by FCM.Results The apoptotic rate(0.115±0.008)was higher in the initiation phase of hyperthermia in vitro,then the necrotic rates rose gradually.The difference between in vivo and in vitro was significant in hyperthermia of the same time about death rate(P<0.05).A strong positive linear correlation(r=0.844)was observed between the death rate of tumor cells and MVD.Conclusion Microvessel damage plays the cardinal role in tumoricidal effect of hyperthermia.
