Adenoviral transducted endostatin gene prevents postoperative recurrence of colorectal carcinoma / 中国普通外科杂志

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo explore the recurrence inhibition of colorectal cancer by adenoviral transducted endostatin gene. Methods The recombinant adenovirus expressing endostatin was constructed. Its biological activities were observed. The levels of endostatin in mice peripheral blood, tumor local recurrence and tumor cell apotosis were analyzed after the endostatin gene transduction by adenovirus. Results The infecting supernatant of recombinant adenovirus significantly inhibited HUVEC proliferation. After the injection of the recombinant adenovirus, persistent high serum levels of endostatin in peripheral blood was observed, local recurrence rate decreased, and apotosis of recurrence tumor cells increased.Conclusions The intraveneously injection of recombinant adenovirus mediated endostatin gene produces high concentration and stable expression of endostatin,which effects prevention of local recurrence after surgical resection of colorectal cancer.
