Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effects and mechanism of anti IL-9 antibody on malignant ascites ( MA) of hepatic carci-noma in mice.Methods:A mouse model of MA was established by mouse H 22 cell line.45 mice were divided randomly into experi-mental group,negative control group and blank control group at 24 hours after modeling,with 15 mice in each group.The experimental group was injected intraperitoneally with anti IL-9 antibody;the negative control group was injected with isotype IgG antibody;the blank control group was injected with normal saline .The weight and behavior of the mice were measured before each injection .Five mice of each group was sacrificed at 24 hours after the last injection to measure the volume of MA .The level of VEGF,MMP-2,IL-9 and IFN-γin MA were determined with ELISA assay;the survival time of rest mice were recorded and compared .Results:The mean volume of MA of experimental group,negative control group and blank control group were (6.70±1.52)ml,(10.28±1.75)ml,(10.36±2.30) ml,respectively,the MA volume of experimental group were lower as compared to negative control group and blank control group ( P<0.05).The mean survival time of experimental group was (17.2±2.1)d,which was significantly prolonged compared with the negative control group (14.5±1.2)d and the blank control group (14.8±1.4)d (P<0.05).The levels of VEGF of MA in experimental group was significantly lower compared to the negative control group and blank control group (P<0.05).The levels of IL-9 of MA in experi-mental group was significantly lower compared to the negative control group (P<0.05).The levels of MMP-2 and IFN-γin experimental group had no significant difference compared with the negative control group and blank control group ( P>0.05 ) .Conclusion:Intraper-itoneal injection anti IL-9 antibody on H22 ascites-bearing mice can effectively inhibit the generation of the MA .The mechanism may be related to the inhibition of the expression of the VEGF and IL-9.
