Methods: A total of 30 C57 rats were selected, and the monoplast suspension of Lewis lung cancer was injected into the left axilla to prepare the subcutaneous transplanted tumor models in the axilla of right upper limb. The models were randomly divided into Groups A, B, and C. Medication was conducted when the tumor grew to 400 mm3. Group A was the control group without any interventional treatment. Group B was injected with Endostar 5 mg.kg-1.d for 10 d. Group C was given the injection of Endostar 5 mg.kg-1.d combined with intraperitoneal injection of cisplatin 5 mg.kg-1.d for 10 d. All the rats in three groups were executed the day after the 10-d medication and the tumor was taken off for measurement of volume and mass changes and calculation of antitumor rate, after which the vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) concentration in rats' plasma was determined by ELISA. The tumor tissues were cut for the preparation of conventional biopsies. After hematoxylin-eosin staining, the pathologic histology was examined to observe the structures of tumor tissues, VEGF score and microvessel density(MVD) in each group. Results: The volume and mass of tumor in Groups B and C were significantly lower than Group A(P < 0.05) while the tumor volume and mass in Group C were significantly lower than Group B(P < 0.05). The antitumor rate in Group C was significantly higher than Group B(P < 0.05), but the tumor VEGF score, MVD and plasma VEGF level in Group C were significantly lower than Groups A and B(P < 0.05). In Group B, the tumor VEGF score, MVD and plasma VEGF level were significantly lower than Group A(P < 0.05). The microscopic image of Group C showed that its number of active tumor cells and the blood capillary around tumor was significantly smaller than that of Groups A and B, and meanwhile atrophy and liquefactive necrosis were seen in local tumor. Conclusions: Endostar injection combined with intraperitoneal injection of cisplatin is effective in reducing tumor VEGF score and MVD of transplanted tumor tissues in rats with Lewis lung cancer to obstruct the nutrient supply of tumor cells and kill tumor cells, so that the inhibition of tumor cell proliferation and metastasis can be achieved with a remarkable effect.展开更多

However, the possible effect of rh-Endostatin in reversing DDP-resistance in A549/DDP cells and the mechanism are needed to be investigated. Methods: Lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549 and its DDP-resistant cell line A549/DDP were treated with DDP and/or recombinant human Endostatin. Difference in drug resistance was analyzed between different regi- mens and between different cell lines after a 72 h-treatment in vitro. And below the non-cytotoxic concentration of rh-End- ostatin, the possibility of rh-Endostatin in reversing DDP-resistance in A549/DDP was evaluated. The resistance protein which was detected in the study included P glycoprotein (P-gp) and topoisomerase II (Topo-II). Results: Rh-Endostatin below 400 IJg/mL showed no cytotoxicity in either A549 or A549/DDP after 72 h-treatment with it. The inhibited concentration of 50% (IC50) observed for DDP was (0.79 _+ 0.05) IJg/mL in A549 and (13.2 + 1.1) in A549/DDP respectively. IC50 was reduced to 2.57 + 0.05 #g/mL in A549/DDP treated by rh-Endostatin below the non-cytotoxic concentrations in combination with DDP, with a reversal fold (RF) of 5.14 and a relative reversal rate of 85.6%. Apoptotic rates were 2.01%, 13.47% and 29.26% re- spectively for cells treated with rh-Endostain, DDP, and the combination. The rate of the A549/DDP control group was 0.99%. The expression level of P-gp or Topo-II was higher in A549/DDP cells than in A549 cells. Rh-Endostatin may partially reverse DDP-resistance in A549/DDP cells in vitro, with a probable mechanism related to lowering expression of P-gp and Topo-II. Conclusien: Rh-Endostatin of non-cytotoxic dose partially reversed cisptatin resistance in cisplatin-resistant human lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549/DDP. Rh-Endostatin reversed the resistance of A549/DDP cells to DDP, which may be related to decreased protein expression of P-gp and Topo-II in A549/DDP cells.展开更多

文摘Objective: To observe the antitumor effect and mechanism of recombinant human endostatin(Endostar) injection in tumor combined with intraperitoneal injection of cisplatin on subcutaneous transplanted Lewis lung cancer in rats. Methods: A total of 30 C57 rats were selected, and the monoplast suspension of Lewis lung cancer was injected into the left axilla to prepare the subcutaneous transplanted tumor models in the axilla of right upper limb. The models were randomly divided into Groups A, B, and C. Medication was conducted when the tumor grew to 400 mm3. Group A was the control group without any interventional treatment. Group B was injected with Endostar 5 mg.kg-1.d for 10 d. Group C was given the injection of Endostar 5 mg.kg-1.d combined with intraperitoneal injection of cisplatin 5 mg.kg-1.d for 10 d. All the rats in three groups were executed the day after the 10-d medication and the tumor was taken off for measurement of volume and mass changes and calculation of antitumor rate, after which the vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) concentration in rats' plasma was determined by ELISA. The tumor tissues were cut for the preparation of conventional biopsies. After hematoxylin-eosin staining, the pathologic histology was examined to observe the structures of tumor tissues, VEGF score and microvessel density(MVD) in each group. Results: The volume and mass of tumor in Groups B and C were significantly lower than Group A(P < 0.05) while the tumor volume and mass in Group C were significantly lower than Group B(P < 0.05). The antitumor rate in Group C was significantly higher than Group B(P < 0.05), but the tumor VEGF score, MVD and plasma VEGF level in Group C were significantly lower than Groups A and B(P < 0.05). In Group B, the tumor VEGF score, MVD and plasma VEGF level were significantly lower than Group A(P < 0.05). The microscopic image of Group C showed that its number of active tumor cells and the blood capillary around tumor was significantly smaller than that of Groups A and B, and meanwhile atrophy and liquefactive necrosis were seen in local tumor. Conclusions: Endostar injection combined with intraperitoneal injection of cisplatin is effective in reducing tumor VEGF score and MVD of transplanted tumor tissues in rats with Lewis lung cancer to obstruct the nutrient supply of tumor cells and kill tumor cells, so that the inhibition of tumor cell proliferation and metastasis can be achieved with a remarkable effect.
文摘We report a 55-year-old male who developed advanced hepatic metastasis and peritoneal carcinomatosis after resection of remnant gastric cancer resection 3 mo ago. The patient only received epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor antibody (Cetuximab) plus recombinant human endostatin (Endostar). Anti-tumor activity was assessed by 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computer tomography (PET/CT) at baseline and then every 4 wk. The case illustrates that 18FDG-PET/CT could make an early prediction of the response to Cetuximab plus Endostar in such clinical situations. 18FDG-PET/CT is a useful molecular imaging modality to evaluate the biological response advanced hepatic metastasis and peritoneal carcinomatosis to Cetuximab plus Endostar in patients after remnant gastric cancer resection.

文摘Objective: Recombinant human Endostatin (rh-Endostatin, YH-16) can reverse cisplatin resistance in A549/DDP cells. However, the possible effect of rh-Endostatin in reversing DDP-resistance in A549/DDP cells and the mechanism are needed to be investigated. Methods: Lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549 and its DDP-resistant cell line A549/DDP were treated with DDP and/or recombinant human Endostatin. Difference in drug resistance was analyzed between different regi- mens and between different cell lines after a 72 h-treatment in vitro. And below the non-cytotoxic concentration of rh-End- ostatin, the possibility of rh-Endostatin in reversing DDP-resistance in A549/DDP was evaluated. The resistance protein which was detected in the study included P glycoprotein (P-gp) and topoisomerase II (Topo-II). Results: Rh-Endostatin below 400 IJg/mL showed no cytotoxicity in either A549 or A549/DDP after 72 h-treatment with it. The inhibited concentration of 50% (IC50) observed for DDP was (0.79 _+ 0.05) IJg/mL in A549 and (13.2 + 1.1) in A549/DDP respectively. IC50 was reduced to 2.57 + 0.05 #g/mL in A549/DDP treated by rh-Endostatin below the non-cytotoxic concentrations in combination with DDP, with a reversal fold (RF) of 5.14 and a relative reversal rate of 85.6%. Apoptotic rates were 2.01%, 13.47% and 29.26% re- spectively for cells treated with rh-Endostain, DDP, and the combination. The rate of the A549/DDP control group was 0.99%. The expression level of P-gp or Topo-II was higher in A549/DDP cells than in A549 cells. Rh-Endostatin may partially reverse DDP-resistance in A549/DDP cells in vitro, with a probable mechanism related to lowering expression of P-gp and Topo-II. Conclusien: Rh-Endostatin of non-cytotoxic dose partially reversed cisptatin resistance in cisplatin-resistant human lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549/DDP. Rh-Endostatin reversed the resistance of A549/DDP cells to DDP, which may be related to decreased protein expression of P-gp and Topo-II in A549/DDP cells.
文摘Objective:To study the effect of continuous recombinant human endostatin pumping combined with TP chemotherapy on serum malignant molecules and angiogenesis molecules in patients with advanced ovarian cancer.Methods:78 patients with advanced ovarian cancer who were treated in our hospital between July 2011 and December 2015 were selected and divided into observation group and control group (n=39) according to the single-blind randomized control method. Before treatment and after 4 cycles of treatment, electrochemical luminescence immunity analyzer was used to detect serum tumor marker levels;RIA method was used to determine serum apoptosis molecule levels;enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the serum angiogenesis molecule levels.Results:Before treatment, differences in serum levels of tumor markers, apoptosis molecules and angiogenesis molecules were not statistically significant between two groups of patients (P>0.05). After 4 cycles of treatment, serum carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125), carbohydrate antigen 153 (CA153), human epididymis protein 4 (HE4), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), human chorionic gonadotropin (β-HCG), Bcl-2, Survivin, Bag-1, angiogenin-2 (Ang-2), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) levels of observation group were significantly lower than those of control group (P<0.05) while Bax level was significantly higher than that of control group (P<0.05).Conclusions:Continuous recombinant human endostatin pumping combined with TP chemotherapy can decrease the malignant degree of advanced ovarian cancer and inhibit angiogenesis.

文摘Objective Medulloblastoma(MB)is the most common primary central nervous system malignancy in children.Nonetheless,there is no standard treatment for recurrent MB.The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical value and toxicity of recombinant human endostatin injection(Endostar~?)combined with craniospinal radiotherapy for the treatment of recurrent MB in children.Methods This study retrospectively analyzed 13 patients with recurrent MB aged 5–18 years.Endostar?7.5 mg/m~2/d was synchronized during craniospinal radiotherapy for 7 children with a portable micro uniform speed infusion pump.Endostar~?was applied 3 days prior to the initiation of radiotherapy.The drug was in continuous use for 7 days.Similarly,the withdrawal of the drug took place over 7 days.This represented a cycle.During radiotherapy,the application was repeated until the end of radiotherapy(experimental group).In the other 6 cases,only craniospinal radiotherapy was used(control group).Results The complete remission rate was 71.4%in the experimental group and 16.7%in the control group.The median progression-free survival(PFS)was 14 months(95%CI:0.0–29.60)and 19 months(95%CI:0.0–39.53)in the experimental and control groups,respectively.The median overall survival(OS)was 19 months(95%CI:0.0–38.20)and 23 months(95%CI:2.47–43.53)in the experimental and control groups,respectively.The most common adverse events included grade 1 thrombocytopenia(7.7%),grade 3 neutropenia(38.5%),and grade 1 anemia(30.8%).Conclusion Endostar~?synchronizing craniospinal radiotherapy significantly improved the complete response rate of children with recurrent MB.It did not increase the side effects of radiation therapy.However,it did not improve the PFS or OS.
文摘BACKGROUND Chronic heart failure(CHF)is a serious and prevalent condition characterized by impaired cardiac function and inflammation.Standard therapy for CHF has limitations,prompting the exploration of alternative treatments.Recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide(BNP)has emerged as a potential therapy,with evidence suggesting that it can improve cardiac function and reduce inflammation in patients with CHF.However,further research is required to determine the efficacy and safety of lyophilized recombinant human BNP in CHF patients and its impact on microinflammatory status.This study aimed to investigate the effects of lyophilized recombinant human BNP therapy on CHF patients’cardiac function and microinflammatory status.AIM To investigate the effects of freeze-dried recombinant human BNP therapy on cardiac function and microinflammatory status in patients with CHF.METHODS In total,102 CHF patients admitted to our hospital from January 2021 to January 2022 were randomly assigned to control and observation groups(n=51 patients/group).The control patients were treated with standard HF therapy for 3 d,whereas the observational patients were injected with the recombinant human BNP for 3 d.Clinical efficacy,inflammatory factor levels,myocardial damage,cardiac function before and after the treatment,and adverse reactions during treatment were compared between the two groups.RESULTS The overall clinical efficacy was higher in the observation group than in the control group.Compared with baseline,serum hypersensitive C-reactive protein,N-terminal proBNP,and troponin I level,and physical,emotional,social,and economic scores were lower in both groups after treatment,with greater reductions in levels and scores noted in the observation group than in the control group.The overall incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was not significantly different compared with that in the control group(P>0.05).CONCLUSION Freeze-dried recombinant human BNP therapy can improve heart function and enhance microinflammatory status,thereby improving overall quality of life without any obvious side effects.This therapy is safe and reliable.
文摘Lyophilized recombinant brain natriuretic peptide(BNP)is an exogenous peptide synthesized by artificial recombination technology,with a similar structure and similar physiological effects with the endogenous natriuretic peptide secreted by the human body.It’s main mechanism of action is to increase cyclic guanosine monophosphate by binding with its corresponding receptor in the body,regulating,thus,the imbalance of the vascular system and cardiac hemodynamics,improving the heart’s pumping capacity,and inhibiting sympathetic excitability and myocardial remodeling.Moreover,it can promote mitochondrial metabolism and enhance the use of adenosine triphosphate in cardiomyocytes.In the present study,102 chronic heart failure(HF)patients were randomly assigned to a control and an observation group consisting of 51 patients each.Patients of the control group were treated with standard HF therapy for 3 d including oral metoprolol tartrate tablets,spironolactone,and olmesartanate while patients of the observation group were administered the recombinant human BNP injection for the same time-period,plus the standard HF therapy.The recombinant human BNP group(observation group)demonstrated better physical,emotional,social,and economic scores,as well as cardiac and inflammatory biomarkers such as serum hypersensitive C-reactive protein,N-terminal pro BNP and troponin I levels,compared to the control group.Moreover,cardiac function was also improved,as left ventricular ejection fraction and stroke volume were significantly higher in the observation group than in the control group.Interestingly,adverse reactions were not different between the 2 groups.However,these results are not generalizable and the need of large multicenter randomized controlled trials examining the safety and efficacy of recombinant human BNP in HF patients is of major importance.
