摘要
Objective： The aim of this study was to compare effect of rh-endostatin on microvasculature in tumor and myocardium tissue. Methods： Nude mice were randomized into 4 groups, blank control group [did not burden tumor, normalsaline （NS） 100 μL/d], drug control group （did not burden tumor, rh-endostatin 400 μg/d）, model group （mice burdened tumor, NS 100 μL/d） and treatment group （mice burdened tumor, rh-endostatin 400 μg/d）, administration was given during d1-d28. The volume of tumor and the weight of mouse were measured before and after administration. The expression of CD34, MMP-2, MMP-9, HIF-la and VEGF in myocardium and tumor were detected by immunohistochemistry. The structure of vasculature was observed by immunoenzymatic double staining with CD34 and Masson. Results： The tumor volume increase of treatment group （48.18 mm3） was less than the model group （113.80 mm3）, the change of weight was not significant among the four groups. After treated with endotar, the expression of MMP-9 and VEGF in tumor were obviously down-regulated, but the same results was not found in MMP-2, HIF-la of tumor. MVD in tumor of treatment group decreased significantly compared with model group. Proportion of tumor vessels covered by collagen in treatment group increased compared with model group. However, MVD and microvasculature in myocardium did not change significantly. Conclusion： Rh-endostatin can decrease the expression of MMP-9, VEGF and MVD to inhibit growth of tumor and normalize micrangium in tumor but cannot weaken MMPs and MVD of mature micrangium in myocardium.
