TNP-40 inhibits the growth of submandibular sarcoma in KM mice / 实用口腔医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective: To study the effect of a potent angiogenic in hi bitor TNP-470 on the growth of sarcoma. Methods:1?10 6 sarcom a S-180 cells 0.1 ml were inoculated into submandibular region in each of 40 K M mice. The mice were divided into control and treatment groups with 10 in each group. Treatment was started 8 hours after inoculation. TNP-40 at 10 mg/kg, 30 mg/kg and 100 mg/kg was given subcutaneously every other day in the 3 treatment groups,total 6 times. On the 12th day, the mice were sacrificed, tumor and mice were weighted. Apoptosis of tumor cells was observed by TUNEL method and transmi ssion microscope. Express of VEGF, bFGF were detected by immunohistochemical sta ining. Results:Sarcoma was developed in all of the mice. The sa rcoma cells invaded deep into adjacent organs and tissues such as muscle, subman dibular gland, parotid and facial nerve. 10 mg/kg, 30 mg/kg and 100 mg/kg TNP- 470 inhibited the growth of the tumor by 27.62%,63.81% and 85.71% respective ly, increased the apoptosis cell number by 54.46%,156.69% and 432.48% respect ively (P
