Abstract:
Granulocyte colony - stimulating factor (G - CSF) is a hematopoietic growth factor that is responsible for the differentiation and proliferation of hematopoietic progenitor cells to mature granulocyte, and can increase the number of peripheral neutrophils. It has been demonstrated that it could inhibit the metastasis of the murine tumors in spontaneous and experimental metastasis models by in vivo administration of recombinant human G - CSF. In order to examine the antitumor effect of G - CSF gene therapy on mice receiving high - dose chemotherapy, C - 26 colon adenocarcinoma - bearing mice which were prepared by S. c. injection of 1?105C-26 cells were i. p. injected with rhG-CSF (2?g/day?14day) or implanted with 1?107 collagen encapsulated NIH3T3-G-CSF cells which secrete high level of G - CSF after gene transfection. In our experiment, rhG-CSF could inhibit the tumor growth and extend the survival time of early stage C-26 bearing mice. However, G - CSF gene therapy could inhibit the tumor growth and prolong the survival both in early or middle stage C-26 mice. The results showed that both rhG - CSF and G - CSF gene therapy have exact antitumor effect and G - CSF gene therapy show more effective than rhG - CSF in vivo. Then we investigated the therapeutic effects of G - CSF gene therapy on C-26-bearing mice receiving high - dose chemotherapy (5-Fu 150mg/mice i. p.) . More effective results could be observed in C-26 - bearing mice receiving high dose chemotherapy after G - CSF gene therapy. The results also suggested that G-CSF gene therapy can inhibit the tumor growth more effectively both in C-26-bearing mice or C-26-bearing mice receiving high - dose chemotherapy.
