Abstract:
Objective:By observing effects of Dahuang Zhechong Pills on CD44,VEGF and the metastasis suppressor in mice with Lewis Lung carcinoma,to discuss its mechanism of anti-tumor metastasis preliminarily.Methods:The mice were divided randomly into five groups the day after modeling and each group included ten mice.According to the pre-test,high-dose,medium-dose and low-dose were quantitated with 0.18g/ml,0.09 g/ml,0.045g/ml.The model group was intragastric administrated with NS 0.2ml for ten days;the chemotherapy group was Intraperitoneal administrated 50mg/kg CTX on the first day.Observing and numerating the pulmonary metastases with nodules by pulmonary pressure slide film on the 12th day.Based on immunohistochemical method to detect the expression of VEGF and the activity detection by flow cytometry CD44,Its anti-tumor mechanism and the role of target were preliminarily studied.Results:The inhibition rates of lung spontaneous metastasis in experimental groups of high(H),medium(M),low(L)dosages and the chemotherapy group were respectively 57.44 percent, 55.32 percent,38.72 percent,60.00 percent.CD44,respectively,values were 0.59?0.86,0.21?0.28,0.33?0.31,1.36?0.52; the experimental group(M)compared with model group,VEGF expression was significantly reduced,there was a significant difference(P0.05).Conclusion:Dahuang Zhechong Pills reduced the lung metastases incidence of C57BL mice with Lewis lung carcinoma and prolonged their lives.These results were obvious in the medium-dose experimental group.Medium-dose of Dahuang Zhechong Pills had effects on C57BL mice with Lewis lung carcinoma,whose CD44 activity were inhibited and the expression of VEGF was reduced.
