肠道菌群与恶性肿瘤的研究进展

人类微生物群是由寄生在人体上皮屏障的细菌和其他微生物组成的，其中大部分位于肠道内，与宿主之间形成共生的关系。机体肠道微生物的组成虽然受到年龄、饮食、生活方式等因素的影响，但在正常生理情况下是相对稳定的。近年来，肠道菌群与恶性肿瘤的关系越来越受到重视。肠道菌群不但能够维持局部稳态，还能调节机体代谢、炎症和免疫等生理过程。有研究表明，微生物群，特别是肠道菌群能够显著调节机体对癌症治疗的反应性以及机体对毒副反应的敏感性。检查肠道菌群中各菌种之间的比例可作为筛查恶性肿瘤的新方法。本文将综述微生物群具有影响肿瘤的发生发展、抗肿瘤治疗疗效以及药物不良反应的证据，以及其中所涉及的微生物种类，从而为恶性肿瘤精准治疗提供证据。

A comparative study of the JAM test and 51Cr-release assay to assess the cytotoxicity of dendritic cells on hematopoietic tumor cells

Dendritic cells (DCs) are potent antigen presenting cells and possess a direct anti-tumor cytotoxic ability. Nevertheless, the mechanism of anti-tumor cytotoxicity by DCs and the methods for its evaluation are not fully elucidated. In order to clarify this mechanism of cytotoxicity, we examined the ability of DCs 1) to suppress [³H] thymidine (³H-TdR) uptake by tumor cells; 2) to induce cytolysis on ⁵¹Cr-labeled tumor cells; 3) and to induce DNA fragmentation on ³H-TdR labeled tumor cells (JAM test). Cytolysis and DNA fragmentation are markers of necrotic and apoptotic mechanisms of cytotoxicity in vitro, respectively. DCs inhibited approximately 38.6% to 54.8% of the growth of B4D6, NB4, U937, and Daudi cells as evaluated by the uptake of ³H-TdR. However no cytolysis was verified by ⁵¹Cr-release assay. On the other hand, cytotoxicity rates found using the JAM test ranged from 3 to 81% depending on the cell line and the effector to target cell ratio. The discrepancy of cytotoxicity between ⁵¹Cr-release assay and the JAM test may be due to the phagocytosis of apoptotic tumor cells or the absorption of released ⁵¹Cr by DCs surrounding the target cells. In conclusion, the JAM test was more sensitive than the 4-h and the 10-h ⁵¹Cr-release assay to investigate cytotoxicity mediated by DCs toward hematopoietic tumor cell lines in vitro.     

Handling of biological samples in the determination of the anti-neoplastic drug mitomycin C

A study to ascertain suitable conditions for handling biological samples from patients, treated with the antibiotic mitomycin C (MMC), with the objective of improving the accuracy and reliability of the determination is described. Situations frequently occurring in medical practice are simulated to optimize procedures for reliable and reproducible sampling, sample treatment and determination of MMC. Continuation of drug partitioning in whole blood after sampling can be prevented by immediate cooling in ice before the separation of plasma from cells. The adjustment of the pH of urine samples is shown to be particularly important since a low urinary pH causes decomposition of MMC; moreover, it may decrease extraction recovery. Furthermore, long-term exposure of samples to daylight induces drug decomposition. Frozen storage of plasma and urine samples for periods greater than 3 weeks is to be avoided as this results in a considerable drop in MMC concentration. Repeated cycles of freezing and thawing are shown to have no effect upon the analytical results (6 cycles tested). The analysis of extracts of biological samples may take place up to at least 24 h after their preparation without measurable loss of analyte.

目的 研究A组溶血性链球菌冻干生物制剂OK-432联合白细胞介素2（IL-2）对小鼠C57BL/6Lewis 肺癌（LLC）生长的抑制作用及对Bcl-2表达的影响。方法 将40只C57BL/6荷瘤LLC小鼠分4组,分别用生理盐水、OK-432、IL-2和OK-432联合IL-2处理,观察用药后肿瘤生长的状况, 用抗鼠bcl-2单克隆抗体进行SABC免疫组化技术半定量测定Bcl-2在Lewis肺癌原发灶中的表达。结果 OK-432/IL-2抑制肿瘤作用强,抑瘤率为60%,（P<0.05）。对照组中的Bcl-2的表达明显高于联合用药组（P<0.05）。结论 OK-432与IL-2有明显的协同抗肿瘤活性,其杀瘤过程主要为对瘤细胞的直接或间接攻击,并促进体内多种反应细胞相互作用,其机制可能与抑制Bcl-2基因的表达、诱导瘤细胞的凋亡有关。
