Abstract:
Objective To study the inhibitory effect of valdecoxib on Lewis tumor and the potential relationship with cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2).Methods HE staining was used to observe lymphocyte infiltration in tumor tissue and the cell structure of the stomach and colon.Western blotting was used to detect the expression of COX-2 in tumor tissue.PGE_2 ELISA kit was used to detect the content of PGE_2 in tumor tissue.Results ① Valdecoxib inhibited the growth of the tumor,and the survival rate was increased.②There was lymphocyte infiltration in treatment group and the content of PGE_2 was decreased.③Valdecoxib did not affect cell structure of stomach and colon,bleeding and clotting time.Conclusion Valdecoxib inhibits the growth of the Lewis tumor and enhances the survival rate.The effect of valdecoxib is related to the inhibition of COX-2.
