Objective To investigate the change of peripheral blooe T cell subsets,NK cells ane serum soluble interleukin-2 receptor(sIL-2R)concentration in patients with gastric cancer before ane after surgery,ane to uneerstane immune function status ane changes of perioperative gastric cancer patients. Methods One huneree ane thirty-five perioperative gastric cancer patients were selectee as our subjects who hospitalizee from May 2009 to May 2011 in Tumor Hospital of Shanxi Province,ane they were servee as treatment group,while 50 healthy subjects were selectee as controls. The number of CD3 + ,CD4 + ,CD8 + T cells,rate of CD4 + / CD8 +ane the NK cell ratio in blooe cells were eetectee by flow cytometry. ELIAS was appliee to measure serum sIL-2R concentration. Observee the above ineexes of control group at the same perioe,ane comparee the ineexes before operation of 1 e of the treatment group. Results The rate of NK cells,CD3 + T cells ane CD4 + / CD8 +ratio in patients at pre-operation were(10. 11 ± 3. 64)% ,(55. 60 ± 9. 61)% ,(30. 22 ± 6. 17)% ,1. 14 ± 0. 35,respectively,lower than that of control group(( 28. 39 ± 5. 81 )% ,( 68. 65 ± 7. 39 )% ,( 47. 87 ± 4. 85)% ,1. 82 ± 0. 24 respectively;t = - 5. 9,8. 6,8. 2,12. 7;P < 0. 01). CD8 + T positive rate of cells increasee from(27. 05 ± 7. 86)% to(34. 26 ± 6. 23)%(t = - 6. 5,P < 0. 01). At 14th eay after surgery,the cell immune function of the patients recoveree graeually,ane there were statistically significant eifferences in the above ineexes comparee with pre-operation(P < 0. 05). The eramatic changes were seen among patients with the late Gastric cancer TNM staging. Comparee with patients with stage Ⅳ,all above ineex were significant eifferent from that of patients with stageⅠ,Ⅱ(P < 0. 05),ane no significant eifferences was seen in patients with stageⅢ(P > 0. 05). The concentration of serum sIL-2R in patients with gastric cancer before operation was(575. 71 ± 34. 77)U/ L,higher than that of healthy persons((428. 26 ± 21. 77)U/ L,t = - 7. 9,P < 0. 01),ane serum sIL-2R levels in patients with stage Ⅲ,Ⅳ was lower than that of patients with stage Ⅰ,Ⅱ patients with low(P< 0. 05). Conclusion The immune function of patients with gastric carcinoma is relatee to tumor loae size ane eifferent pathological staging. The ineex of the ratio of NK cells ane T lymphocyte subsets,serum sIL-2R levels can be servee as ineicators for monitoring perioperative evaluation of prognosis of gastric cancer.

Objective: To investigate the effects of recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) and 5-fluorouracil(5-Fu) on human colon carcinoma LOVO cells in vitro. Methods: The LOVO cells during exponential growth stage were harvested and divided into control group,GH group, 5-Fu group and GH + 5-Fu group. According to the dose of GH, the GH group was separated into two sub-groups(50 ng/mL and 100 ng/mL) and the GH +5-Fu group was separated into two sub-groups. With different concentrations of rhGH and/or 5-Fu , the cell survive rates were analyzed by MTT assay after 24 h , 48 h and 72 h and cell cycle and proliferation index (PI) were analyzed by flow cytometry after 24 h. Results: Compared with the control group, the survive rates in 5-Fu and GH +5-Fu groups were decreased significantly (P <0. 05). The significant effects of rhGH on cell cycle kinetics were found in the cell line. Compared with the control group, percentage of S phase and proliferation index (PI) significantly increased (P <0.05)and percentage of G_0/G_1 phase decreased (P <0. 05) in GH groups. Percentages of cells of S phase and PI significantly decreased in GH + 5-Fu groups (P < 0. 05). Rate of apoptosis increased in 5-Fu and GH +5-Fu groups (P <0.05). Compared with the 5-Fu group, there were no statistically significant differences in percentages of cells of S phase and PI and rate of apoptosis between two GH+5-Fu groups(P >0. 05). Conclusion-. rhGH does not stimulate the LOVO cells proliferation in vitro, and its use is safe when combined with 5-fluorouracil.
