马齿苋多糖对S180荷瘤小鼠免疫功能的影响

本文探讨马齿苋多糖对S180荷瘤小鼠免疫功能的影响。马齿苋采用水提醇沉法得到马齿苋多糖,分别以50、100、200mg／kg通过腹腔给药10d,观察马齿苋多糖对S180荷瘤小鼠的抑瘤作用及对小鼠淋巴细胞转化功能、腹腔巨噬细胞的吞噬能力、白介素-l（IL-1）和白介素-2（IL-2）生成量的影响。结果显示,马齿苋多糖对S180荷瘤小鼠有明显的抑瘤作用,抑瘤率分别为16．92％、51．45％和64．96％。不同剂量马齿苋多糖与对照组相比可明显促进淋巴细胞的转化、小鼠腹腔巨噬细胞吞噬能力,可有效的增加荷瘤小鼠脾淋巴细胞的转化和腹腔巨噬细胞的吞噬能力以及白介素-1（IL-1）和白介素-2（IL-2）的分泌。说明马齿苋多糖对S180荷瘤小鼠具有显著的抗肿瘤作用,其作用机制与增强小鼠免疫作用有关。     

仙茅多糖对氟尿嘧啶增效减毒作用

本文探讨了仙茅多糖(COP)对氟尿嘧啶的增效减毒作用。实验中建立小鼠S180实体瘤模型,连续给药10 d,测定小鼠瘤重,体质量、白细胞、红细胞、胸腺指数、脾脏指数以及小鼠脾脏中的超氧化物歧化酶活性和丙二醛含量。同时建立小鼠S180腹水瘤模型,连续给药30 d,记录小鼠存活天数,计算生命延长率。结果显示,仙茅多糖能改善氟尿嘧啶引起的小鼠白细胞减少、胸腺萎缩、脾脏肿大(P0.05或P0.01);但联用高剂量组使小鼠脾脏中SOD活力(P0.01)降低,联用低、中剂量组使MDA含量增加(P0.05)。COP和5-FU均延长荷瘤小鼠的生存期,(5-FU+COP)联合用药组生命延长率比5-FU单独用药组明显增高,且与联用的COP剂量呈量效关系。从而表明仙茅多糖对氟尿嘧啶具有一定的增效减毒作用,机制可能与其能调节机体免疫力有关,而与过氧化反应无关。

Synergistic antitumor effect of anti-PD-L1 combined with oxaliplatin on a mouse tumor model

Oxaliplatin (OXP) can change tumor microenvironment from immune-suppressive toward the immune-favorable condition. Almost all of the antitumor agents cannot totally cure cancer as monotherapy. So the current focus of cancer research became combining therapy using different treatment regimen, especially chemotherapy with checkpoint blockers. In this study, we assessed the activity of combining regimen using anti-PD-L1 with OXP in CT26 tumor-bearing BALB/c mice. We further analyzed the immune cell phenotypes in tumor site, lymph nodes, and spleen by flow cytometry analysis. Our study showed that combination therapy with OXP and anti-PD-L1 significantly increased survival in vivo and inhibited tumor growth of tumor-bearing mice. Inconsistent with better antitumor activity, our combination therapy led to an increase in tumor-infiltrating activated CD8+ T cells. In draining lymph nodes and spleen, regulatory T cells decreased significantly. Mice receiving either anti-PD-L1 or OXP alone had a larger tumor and lower survival rate in comparison with combination therapy receiving group. The time and order of administration of each component of the combination therapy affected antitumor response.     

Immune reaction of tumor-bearing mice to Propionibacterium acnes and the antitumor effect of the bacteria

Summary The relationship between immunological reaction to Propionibacterium acnes (PA) and the antitumor effect of the injected bacterium was investigated. The aim was to determine whether the strength of the immune reaction to the bacterium can be used to predict its antitumor effectiveness. C3Hf/Sed mice received SC injections (right thigh) of viable cells of a methylcholanthrene-induced fibrosarcoma. When the tumor grew to 5 mm, the hosts received 350 g PA IV as the antitumor treatment. Cellular immunity (footpad test) to PA was assayed in one group of these mice 14 days later, and in the other anti-PA agglutinins were determined 28 days later. The PA injection cured 22 of 58 mice in the first, and 20 of 46 mice in the second group. Footpad reaction and agglutinin titers to PA in cured mice were not statistically different from those in mice eventually killed by the tumor. Therefore, the strength of the immune reaction to PA in tumor-bearing mice could not be used to predict the antitumor effectiveness of the bacterium.Andres Soriano, Director of Cancer Management     

The antitumor effect of bleomycin combined with bestatin against Ehrlich ascites carcinoma in mice

The effect of bleomycin against Ehrlich ascites carcinoma transplanted subcutaneously to mice used in combination with bestatin was investigated. Male Balb/c mice weighting approximately 20 g and bred in our laboratories were used in this study. Each mouse was injected in its left lateral abdominal region subcutaneously with 7 X 10(6) tumor cells in 0.2 ml of ascites fluid. The mice were divided into four groups: control, bestatin alone (5 mg/kg intraperitoneally on Days 9-14), bleomycin alone (10 mg/kg intraperitoneally on Days 7 and 8), and bestatin plus bleomycin. Our results show that bestatin enhances the antitumor effect of bleomycin against Ehrlich ascites carcinoma as measured by the increased survival rates. Being an agent of very low toxicity, bestatin should be considered as a part of the chemoimmunotherapy protocol.     

Analysis of effector cells in tumor-bearing mice pre-treated with active specific immunization followed by cyclophosphamide

In order to analyse the effector population in an immunization model, we treated BALB/c mice with intraperitoneal (i.p.) active specific immunization (ASI), which consists of interleukin (IL)-1- and sonicated tumor supernatant (SS) of a plasmacytoma MOPC-104E followed by i.p. injection of cyclophosphamide (CY). This ASI-CY treatment provoked a protective immunity against i.p. tumor inoculation more strongly than that of ASI alone. The main effector cells in tumor neutralizing assay were CD4+ T cells at this pont. The number of spleen cells of the ASI-CY treated mice were significantly lower than that of ASI alone treated mice but it increased significantly 6 days thereafter while this increase was not observed on the mice treated with ASI alone. The spleen cells of the ASI-CY treated mice responded to SS in vitro in the presence of IL-2, more profoundly in CD4 enriched population which produced high amount of TNF-. In vivo tumor-neutralizing activity at a later stage was dependent on CD8+ T cells in addition to CD4+ T cells. These results suggest that antitumor activity by ASI and CY is transduced by sequential population shift from CD4 alone to both of CD4 and CD8.     

Delayed lethal response to Aspergillus fumigatus infection in sarcoma 180 tumor-bearing mice

A longer survival and a decrease in the number of fungal cells in kidneys and brain were observed in groups of mice inoculated with Aspergillus fumigatus conidia 2-3 weeks (especially 3 weeks) after sarcoma 180 tumor transplantation compared to groups of non-tumor-bearing (control) mice inoculated with fungal cells only. The 3-4-week tumor-bearing mice had significantly decreased levels of serum iron and increased levels of unbound iron binding capacity in the serum compared to those of the non-tumor-bearing mice.     

T-suppressors from tumor-bearing mice inhibit antitumor cytotoxic T-lymphocytes in monoculture]

The generation of specific antitumor cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTL) via 2-fold immunization in vivo and subsequent cultivation without tumor cells (in monoculture) was previously described. The spleen cells from B10 mice bearing progressively growing MX-11 sarcoma suppressed the maturation of CTL specific to MX-11 but not to EL-4 lymphoma in monoculture. It was observed, that the suppression was not the result of the inhibitory effect of suppressor cells upon the IL-2 production, because suppression took place in the presence of the exogenous IL-2 in monoculture. Since the treatment of the spleen cells with MoAb against both L3T4 and Lyt2.2 antigens plus C' considerably decreased the suppressive activity, it was suggested, that two distinct subsets of T-lymphocytes were required for suppression. It might be possible, that the presence of anti-idiotype on the effector suppressors was the cause of the suppressive specificity in the absence of tumor antigens in vitro.

Enhancement of antitumor effect of cyclophosphamide by thaliblastine in Lewis lung carcinoma and L1210 leukemia in mice

Cyclophosphamide (CY) was tested in combination with the thalictrum alkaloid named thaliblastine (TBL) for therapeutic activity against early Lewis lung carcinoma and early L1210 leukemia in mice. TBL alone had no activity whereas therapy with CY and TBL was significantly better than with CY alone. The therapeutic potentiation resulting from the combination of CY and TBL is apparently due to the different mechanisms of action and the pharmacological behavior of the two agents.
