The antitumor activity of tumor necrosis factor (TNA) against various human cancer cells (32 cases) was investigated by 51Cr cytotoxic release assay and tumor stem cell assay. Over 50% sensitivity (the ratio of cytotoxicity for L929 cells) was shown by 4 of 14 cases of gastric cancer (28.6%), 7 of 9 cases of leukemic cells (77.8%), and 1 case each of pancreatic carcinoma and ovarian cancer. However, scarcely any sensitivity was shown by APL, a portion of the gastric cancer cells, normal lymphocytes or colony-forming cells tested. No correspondence was observed between the histological type of the cancer and TNF sensitivity. The above results seem to confirm the significant antitumor activity of TNF against human cancer cells.  相似文献

The soluble antitumor activity of regional lymph node cells obtained from patients with cervical cancer was investigated by using a human tumor clonogenic assay (HTCA). A significant antiproliferative activity of the lymph node cells (LNCs) against a cervical cancer cell line, HeLa cells, was demonstrated by stimulation with either phytohemagglutinin (PHA) or concanavalin A (Con A), but not with interleukin-2 (IL-2). This antiproliferative activity of LNC was found in nonadherent cells, possibly T-cells. By using neutralizing antibody experiments, this activity was found to be attributed to interferon gamma (IFN gamma), but not to tumor necrosis factor (TNF), although both cytokines were produced from LNC. These results indicate that human LNC was able to exert an antiproliferative activity mediated through the cytokines by appropriate stimulation.  相似文献

The antitumor activity of highly purified tumor necrosis factor (TNF) was tested. TNF had direct cytotoxic activity on all cancer cells examined in vitro, and no species specificity. Normal cells showed no damage on addition of TNF. TNF showed excellent curative effects against all types of murine and human tumors tested in vivo. A great difference in curative effects of TNF was observed between Meth A sarcoma transplanted into Balb/c nu/+ and Balb/c nu/nu mice with a single intravenous administration. This experiment suggested that in addition to direct cytotoxicity against tumor cells, TNF-induced host-mediated factor which contributed to the antitumor effects Murine TNF has on inhibitory effect against multiple pulmonary metastasis of Lewis Lung-tumor. Very few references to this field could be found in the literature and the present paper mainly presented our own research.  相似文献

Omphalia lapidescens is an important medicinal fungus as well as traditional Chinese medicine used for disease treatment. It is mainly used as a vermifuge for anthelmintic therapy, but it has not been hitherto reported to possess antitumor activity. In this study, a purified bioactive protein in O. lapidescens (pPeOp) was obtained using polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) followed by gel filtration chromatography. To evaluate the in?vitro antitumor activity of pPeOp in human gastric tumor cells (MC-4 and SGC-7901) and normal cells (MC-1), MTT assay and FCM assay were used and the morphological changes, cell viability, cell death rate and cell apoptosis rate of MC-4, SGC-7901 and MC-1 cells were estimated. The results showed that pPeOp could significantly reduce the cell viability of MC-4 and SGC-7901 cells in a concentration-dependent manner, with IC50 values of 236.05 and 156.28 μg/ml, respectively. The morphological observation also indicated a similar result. In FCM assays, a significant increase of cell death rate and cell apoptosis rate of the tumor cells were observed, indicating probable necrosis-inducing effects and/or apoptosis-inducing effects of pPeOp. Importantly, there was no significant effect of pPeOp on MC-1 cells in each assay, showing that pPeOp has no adverse effects on the normal cells. In conclusion, pPeOp is a newly discovered bioactive protein in O. lapidescens and this is the first report on antitumor activity of such a fungal protein. This may provide a meaningful basis for developing a new protein drug for treatment against cancer, especially gastric cancer.  相似文献

The antitumor effects of human tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) mutant RGD-V29 (code no. F4614), that includes the cell adhesive sequence (4)Arg-(5)Gly-(6)Asp and (29)Arg-->Val substitution, were evaluated. The therapeutic index, a measure of the extent of the therapeutically-effective range, using three constitutive administrations of RGD-V29 in Meth A-bearing mice was 4.8, whereas that of recombinant human TNF (rhTNF) ((1)SSS(4)RTPSDK...(29)RR...(155)L) was 2.8, clearly indicating that the effective RGD-V29 dose-range was extended. Furthermore, RGD-V29 showed potent antitumor activity against human lung cancer Mqnu-1 xenografted nude mice without severe gastrointestinal and other organ toxicities, even when administered at the maximal tolerated dose (MTD). In contrast, rhTNF induced severe toxicity at the MTD. Direct cytotoxicity of RGD-V29 against Mqnu-1 cells was similar to that of rhTNF. In addition, a cytotoxicity assay using a tumor-derived endothelial-like cell (tEC)/normal endothelial cell (nEC) system used to study TNF antitumor effects on tumor-associated endothelial cells, suggested that RGD-V29 showed preferential cytotoxicity toward tumor-associated endothelial cells compared with rhTNF. Thus, RGD-V29 appears to be a low-toxicity mutant of rhTNF that shows preferential activity towards tumors, and therefore merits further investigation in pre-clinical and clinical studies.  相似文献

Steroid binding assay using the dextran coated charcoal (DCC) method was applied to human tissues including tumors of the digestive organs, and the results were compared with those of enzymeimmunoassay (EIA) and immunocytochemical assay (ICA) with monoclonal antibody against human estrogen receptor of MCF-7 breast cancer cells. Using the DCC method, estrogen receptor activity was detected in 6 of 26 cases (23.1%) with gastric carcinoma, 3 of 16 hepatocellular carcinoma cases (18.8%), 1 of 3 gallbladder carcinoma cases (33.3%), and both of the 2 cases (100%) with normal liver tissue. However, using EIA, no ER activity was detected in any case. Moreover, ER positive cells were not found by immunohistochemical staining in the gastric carcinoma cases or in normal liver tissue, both of which showed ER activity by the DCC method. These results suggest that the estrogen receptor like material exists in cytosol of the human digestive tumors and normal liver tissue, but that the specificity of the antibodies against estrogen receptor molecules in these tumors may be different from that of the breast tumors.  相似文献

Due to preferential uptake and retention, the small molecular weight lipophilic, cationic antimicrobial agent dequalinium chloride (DECA) displays potent in vitro and in vivo antitumor activity against carcinoma cells. The primary mechanism of DECA activity is directed against the mitochondria where it disrupts cellular energy production. One of the direct antitumor effects of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is also targeted against the mitochondria. The ability of DECA to synergize this effect was examined in vitro against a panel of human ovarian cancer cell lines. The data from single agent and combined drug exposure were analyzed by the isobologram methods of Tsai et al (Cancer Res 49: 2390-2397, 1989). We demonstrate that TNF and DECA strongly synergize in vitro at clinically achievable doses for TNF and potentially clinically achievable doses for DECA. The degree of synergy varied with the cell line tested with UCI-101 being the least responsive and PA-1 cells displaying the greatest synergistic effect. DECA treatment also prolonged animal survival in mice bearing the PA-1 intraperitoneal ovarian carcinoma xenograft. Single agent DECA (5 mg/kg; qod) increased animal survival by 37% (p=0.002) whereas recombinant human TNF (0.5 mug/mouse; qod) increased survival by 12% (p=0.27) in those animals treated 3 days post tumor injection. Sequential DECA/TNF enhanced animal survival by 45% (p=0.0002) in similarly treated animals. DECA, as a mitochondrial poison is an agent capable of potentiating the effects of tumor necrosis factor against ovarian cancer cell lines.  相似文献

Cetuximab, a chimeric monoclonal antibody to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), has been proved to have clinically significant antitumor activity against advanced colorectal cancers, but its therapeutic activity for gastric cancers remains unclear. In the present study, we investigated the antitumor effect and action mechanism of cetuximab using EGFR high-expressing (MKN-28) and EGFR low-expressing (GLM-1) gastric cancer cell lines without gene amplification. Cetuximab showed neither significant growth inhibition nor induction of apoptosis in either cell line in vitro , and only slightly inhibited ligand-induced phosphorylation of protein kinase B and extracellular signal-regulated kinase in MKN-28 cells. In contrast, cetuximab significantly inhibited subcutaneous and intraperitoneal tumor growth of MKN-28 cells, but not GLM-1 cells, in nude mice. This antitumor activity was significantly enhanced and diminished in nude mice by treatment with interleukin-2 (IL-2) and antiasialo GM1 antibody, which can expand and deplete natural killer (NK) cells, respectively. Antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) of cetuximab, as measured by 51Cr release assay, was significantly higher in MKN-28 than in GLM-1 cells. This ADCC activity was enhanced by IL-2 and reduced by heat-aggregate of human immunoglobulin G, an inhibitor for FcR-III of NK cells. These results suggest that cetuximab in combination with IL-2 shows significant antitumor activity against EGFR high-expressing gastric cancer mainly through NK cell-mediated ADCC. Combination therapy with cetuximab and IL-2 would thus offer a new potential therapeutic approach for a subset of EGFR-overexpressing gastric cancers. ( Cancer Sci 2008; 99: 1471–1478)  相似文献

We examined whether 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) induces nitric oxide (NO) production and evaluated the role of NO in antitumor activity in human gastric cancer cells. MKN-1 gastric cancer cells were treated with the IC50 of 5-FU in the presence of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma). In addition, s-methylisothiourea (an antagonist of inducible nitric oxide synthase) or anti-TNF-alpha antibody was added to the culture medium. Production of NO was measured by nitrite assay, TNF-alpha was measured by enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay, antitumor activity was evaluated by 3-[4,5-dimethylethiazol-2-yl]-2,5-dipheniltetrasolium bromide (MTT) assay. After 5-FU treatment in the presence of IFN-gamma, NO and TNF-alpha were produced and anti-tumor activity was enhanced. In contrast, s-methylisothiourea abolished the antitumor activity of 5-FU treatment. Anti-TNF-alpha antibody inhibited NO production and decreased the antitumor activity. 5-FU induces NO production by gastric cancer cells, and NO participates in antitumor activity in gastric cancer cells. These effects may be mediated by TNF-alpha production.  相似文献

The abilities of human alveolar macrophages (AM) obtained from healthy donors and patients with lung cancer to produce tumor necrosis factor (TNF) were compared with those of their blood monocytes after activation with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). TNF activity was assayed by measuring cytotoxicity against actinomycin D-treated L929 cells and TNF was determined quantitatively by sandwich enzyme-linked immnnosorbent assay (ELISA) with polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies against TNF-α. Unstimulated AM from healthy donors released variable amounts of TNF spontaneously, whereas blood monocytes did not. When treated with LPS for 24 h, AM and monocytes produced TNF dose-dependently, but TNF production by AM was significantly more than that by blood monocytes. This TNF activity was inhibited completely by monoclonal anti-TNF-α antibody. Macrophages generated by in vitro maturation of monocytes induced by granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) produced more TNF than freshly isolated monocytes. No difference was found in the abilities of AM from healthy donors and patients with lung cancer to produce TNF after activation stimuli. These observations suggest that human AM may be important in in vivo antitumor defense of the lung through TNF-α production.  相似文献

Tumor colony-forming cells were grown from fresh biopsy specimens from 102 patients with a variety of nonhematologic malignant neoplasms and exposed in vitro to pharmacologically achievable doses of recombinant human tumor necrosis factor (rTNF). In 68 instances, the tumor specimens were also tested against recombinant human gamma-interferon (rIFN-gamma), as well as the combination of rTNF and rIFN-gamma. rTNF exhibited dose-dependent and tumor-type-dependent antitumor effects. Sensitivity to rTNF at doses of less than 100 U was observed in 28% of the tumors tested. A higher than average frequency of sensitivity was observed in colorectal and lung cancer. Resistance to rTNF was observed in 42% of the tumors, including 52% of the ovarian cancer specimens tested. In paired experiments, exposure of tumor specimens to rTNF and rIFN-gamma in combination often resulted in a greater antitumor effect than was observed with either agent alone, with at least subadditive effects seen in 62% of the specimens tested against the combination. Antagonism between rTNF and rIFN-gamma was observed in 18% of the studies. Overall, exposure to the combination of rTNF and rIFN-gamma reduced the dose of rTNF required for significant antitumor activity by about threefold. Normal bone marrow granulocyte-macrophage colony-forming cells were also tested against both rTNF and rIFN-gamma and the combination. The bone marrow progenitors were more sensitive to rTNF and the combination with rIFN-gamma than were the tumor cells; however, the significance of this comparison between two different in vitro assay systems is indeterminate. Based on our observations, rTNF warrants phase II clinical trials in selected solid tumors with definite emphasis on colorectal and lung cancer. Additionally, studies of the combination of rTNF and rIFN-gamma are indicated and will be of particular interest in endometrial and breast cancer.  相似文献

In vitro chemosensitivity was evaluated by SDI test in various human tumors including 1 lymph node metastasis of esophageal cancer, 10 gastric cancers, 4 colo-rectal cancers, 1 hepatoma, 2 lung cancers, 2 breast cancers and 1 gallbladder cancer. Tumor fragments cut with scissors were exposed to twelve kinds of antitumor drugs at five to ten times peak plasma concentration. After 3 days at 37 degrees C, each tumor fragment suspension was washed with phosphate-buffered saline and assayed for succinate dehydrogenase (SD) activity using 3-(4,5- dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2, 5-diphenyl-2H tetrazolium bromide (MTT) as a hydrogen acceptor. When the SD activity of the drug-treated cells was reduced to below 50% that of control cells, the chemosensitivity to the antitumor drug was considered positive. The chemosensitivity of each tumor varied individually. Mitomycin C or 5-fluorouracil are regularly used to treat gastric cancer patients, but, some specimens of gastric cancer in this study showed a resistance to these drugs and an unexpected sensitivity to other drugs. Our results show that the SDI test is a convenient method for clinical use and gives significant information about drug sensitivity.  相似文献

The tumor suppressor gene p53 is the most frequently mutated gene in human cancers. However, its mutation rate is relatively low in gastric cancer compared with other cancers. In this study, we investigated the mechanisms underlying the antitumor effects of nutlin-3, an inhibitor of human homolog of murine double minute 2 (MDM2). MDM2 is a negative regulator of p53. Four gastric cancer cell lines with wild-type p53 (wt p53) and three with mutant-type p53 (mt p53) were analyzed for MDM2 and MDM4 expression by immunoblotting, and for their gene amplification by quantitative real-time PCR. Moreover, the viability of cells exposed to nutlin-3 was examined by WST-8 assay, and the expression of p53 and its downstream genes was analyzed by immunoblotting. Nutlin-3 stabilized p53 and increased the expression of p21(WAF1) and Noxa, and cleaved poly (ADP)-ribose polymerase regardless of the pre-expression levels of MDM2 and MDM4 in gastric cancer cells with wt p53. Flow cytometry revealed that nutlin-3 arrested the cell cycle in G(1) phase and induced apoptosis in the cell lines. These nutlin-3 effects were not observed in the cell lines with mt p53. Nutlin-3 exerted additive or synergistic cytotoxicity in combination with 5-fluorouracil or cisplatin in most cell lines with wt p53. An in vivo antitumor effect of nutlin-3 alone and its additive augmentation by 5-fluorouracil were confirmed in an MDM2 overexpressed xenograft tumor model. Nutlin-3 showed potent antitumor activity against human gastric cancer cells with wt p53 and shows promise as a single agent and in combination with conventional anticancer drugs.  相似文献

Based on the finding that expression of endogenous tumor necrosis factor (TNF) which is not detected in TNF-susceptible cells was observed in TNF-resistant cells, the assumption was made that endogenous TNF may be a protective protein against the cytotoxic activity of TNF. In order to confirm this possibility, we investigated the relationship between expression of endogenous TNF and TNF susceptibility by using the gene transfection method. When L-M, TNF-highly sensitive murine fibrosarcoma cells were transfected with a human TNF gene, the stable transfectants expressed endogenous TNF and acquired resistance to TNF. Conversely, when endogenous TNF synthesis was inhibited by introducing an antisense TNF gene into HeLa, TNF-less sensitive human cervical cancer cells, the sensitivity was enhanced. These findings indicate that endogenous TNF is one of the protective factors against the cytotoxic activity of TNF.  相似文献
