Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the inhibitory effect of selective angiotensinⅡtype 1 receptor antagonist ZD7155 on pancreatic cancer xenografts of nude mice.Methods:Sixty nude mice were given subcutaneous injections of PaTu8988s cells to establish the pancreatic cancer xenograft models;then the animal models were evenly randomized into 3 groups:low-dose (10 mg?kg~(-1)?d~(-1))ZD7155,high-dose(20 mg?kg~(-1)?d~(-1))ZD7155 and normal saline groups.Ten mice in each group were sacrificed 10 d after treatment and the tumor sizes and body weights were measured.The microvessel density(MVD)was assessed by immunostaining of endothelial cells for CD31 and the cell apoptoses were observed by transmission electron microscope.Another thirty mice were treated for 30 days;the survival period of mice and toxicity of ZD7155 were observed till the 49th day of treatment.Results:Ten days after treatment,the mean tumor volumes in the control,low-dose and high-dose groups were(35.8?6.7)cm~3,(21.5?6.1)cm~3 and (10.7?4.1)cm~3,respectively(P
