Cold plasma can selectively kill a variety of tumor cells, and its biological safety in clinical trials is also very important. In many cases, the patient’s immune level is relatively low, so we first studied the safety assessment of plasma treatment in an immunocompromised animal model. In this study, we examined the safety of immuno-deficient nude mice by oral lavage treatment of plasma-activated water, and studied the growth status, main organs and blood biochemical indexes. Acute toxicity test results showed that the maximum dose of plasma treatment for 15 min had no lethal effect and other acute toxicity. There were no significant changes in body weight and survival status of mice after 2 min and 4 min of plasma-activated water(PAW)treatment for 2 weeks. After treatment, the major organs, including heart, liver, spleen, lung and kidney, were not significantly changed in organ coefficient and tissue structure. Blood biochemical markers showed that blood neutrophils and mononuclear cells were slightly increased, and the others remained unchanged. Liver function, renal function, electrolytes, glucose metabolism and lipid metabolism were not affected by different doses of PAW treatment. The above results indicate that PAW treatment can be used to treat immuno-deficient nude mice without significant safety problems.展开更多

They act on different phase of the cell cycle of the gastric cancer cells, with PV H-1 on the late stage of S phase and AT-1840 on M phase. Combined use of these drugs gives better killing effect than the individual drug alone. In gastric cancer-bearing nude mice (ascites and solid tumor forms), both AT-1840 and PV H-1 increased the survival peroids and decreased the size of solid tumors. Depsite these are the experimental study which may not to be the same in human being. However, the study has layed down a solid foundation for our further exploration of these two substances as anti-gastric cancer drugs in the future.展开更多
