Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of Semen Litchi on the expressions of S180 and EAC tumor cells and Bax and Bcl-2 proteins in rats. METHODS: EAC, S180 and hepatic carcinoma tumor-bearing mice models were established in mice by inoculating them with tumor strains. EAC, S180 and hepatic carcinoma suspensions were diluted respectively with normal saline in a ratio of 1∶1 for the preparation of tumor-bearing ascites suspension. Each rat was subcutaneously inoculated with the mixture 0.2 mL via axilla 24 hours before medication, with the whole sterile operation finished within 60 minutes. After treated with Semen Litchi for 10 consecutive days, the growth of EAC, S180 and hepatic carcinoma in mice was observed. RESULTS: The growth of EAC and S180 and hepatic carcinoma cells in mice was significantly inhibited by Semen Litchi. CONCLUSION: Semen Litchi can inhibit the growth of S180 and EAC tumor cells in vitro and in vivo, and its antitumor effect is related to its ability to promote apoptotic of tumor cells.
