Methods: To measure the effects of KSC and/or Cyclophosphamide (Cy) on natural killer (NK) activity, lymphokine activated killer (LAK) activity, the produc tion of interleukin 2 (IL 2), ATK activity and the growth of sarcoma 180 (S 180 ). Results: KSC promoted NK activity, LAK activity and ATK activity in vivo , increased IL 2 production at 40 mg/kg/d×9d. It also enhanced the antitumor action of Cy (20 mg/kg/d×9d) and offset the inhibition of Cy on immunocopetent cells. The ATK activity in splenocytes of S 180 bearing mice could be induced and increased by recombinant interleukin 2 (rIL 2) in vitro . Conclusion: KSC has an up regulating effect on the immune functions and ATK activity in tumor bearing mice. It can be used as a biological response modifier (BRM) in cancer biotherapy.展开更多

Methods: Changes of total T cell count and subsets in mice were determined by monoclonal antibody assay before and after treatment with FAM-sl, and the lymphokine activated killer cell (LAK) activity was tested simultaneously by isotope label method.Results: FAM-sl could promote the proliferation of lymphocytes induced by ConA, raise the total T cell count and regulate the T cell subsets disturbance, and elevate the LAK activity induced by recombinant interleukin-2 (rIL-2).Conclusion: FAM-sl possesses effects of immune stimulation and immune regulation in treating immunosuppressive mice. This study provides experimental evidence for clinical application of FAM-sl.展开更多
