Abstract

Objective To study the antitumor effect and the mechanism of the polysaccharide from Gloipeltis furcata on H_(22),tumor bearing mice.Methods The polysaccharides from Gloipeltis furcata were administered by oral route in mice bearing H_(22) tumor.The treatments lasted for 7 days.The inhibition rate against H_(22) tumor and the indices of thymus, spleen and liver were measured.In addition,the levels of antibodies against H_(22) tumor and GPT in serum,and GPT,GOT,MDA and SOD in liver were measured using commercially available kits.Results The administration of the polysaccharides from Gloipeltis furcata(200 mg?kg~(-1)?d~(-1) and 400 mg?kg~(-1)?d~(-1) ) for 7 days,the inhibition rates of H_(22) tumor were 35.64%(P
