经沉默免疫负调控基因技术处理的树突状细胞联同细胞毒性T淋巴细胞对HepG2细胞移植瘤的抑制作用

目的观察经沉默免疫负调控基因(iAPA)技术处理的树突状细胞(DC)联同细胞毒性T淋巴细胞(CTL)(iAPA-DC/CTL)对HepG2细胞移植瘤的抑制作用。方法利用人肝癌细胞系HepG2建立裸鼠皮下移植瘤模型,将12只裸鼠随机分为2组:生理盐水对照组(C组)和iAPA-DC/CTL组(DC组),每组6只,行iAPA-DC/CTL治疗4次(1周/次)后处死。实验期间观察各组裸鼠的肿瘤生长,测量肿瘤长短径并描绘肿瘤生长曲线,称量瘤重并计算抑瘤率,病理检测。两组间均数比较采用成组t检验。结果造模成功率为92.31%。C组和DC组肿瘤体积分别为:(697.69±143.99)、(485.64±188.75)mm3,DC组生长相对缓慢(t=2.28,P0.05);C组和DC组肿瘤重量分别为:(0.32±0.07)、(0.22±0.08)g,DC组肿瘤重量小于对照组(t=2.31,P0.05),抑瘤率为30.39%。肿瘤免疫组化染色后T淋巴细胞计数分别为:C组未见、DC组(39.74±5.11)个/高倍视野,DC组肿瘤内T细胞数多于对照组(t=19.05,P0.05)。结论 iAPA-DC/CTL能够有效抑制HepG2细胞裸鼠皮下移植瘤的生长。

Inhibitory effect of iAPA- DC /CTL on HepG2 xenograft in nude mice

Objective To investigate the inhibitory effect of inhibition of antigen presentation attenuators（ iAPA）- based dendritic cells（ DC） and cytotoxic T lymphocytes（ CTL）（ iAPA- DC/CTL） on HepG2 xenograft in nude mice. Methods Human hepatocarcinoma HepG2 cells were subcutaneously implanted into nude mice on nude mice to establish a HepG2 xenograft model transplanted tumor model of human HCC. Twelve nude mice were randomly and equally divided into two groups： normal saline control group（ C group） and iAPA- DC /CTL group（ DC group）. After four times of treatment with iAPA- DC /CTL（ once a week）,all mice were sacrificed. Tumor growth was evaluated by measuring the long and short diameters and delineating the tumor growth curve. The tumors were weighed,and the tumor inhibition rate was calculated. In addition,histopathological examination was performed. Comparison of means between the two groups was made by independent- samples t test. Results The HepG2 xenograft model was successfully established in 92. 31% of all mice. The tumor volume was 697. 69 ± 143. 99 mm3 in C group and 485. 64 ± 188. 75 mm3 in DC group; the tumor growth was significantly slower in DC group than in C group（ t = 2. 28,P〈0. 05）. The tumor weight was 0. 32 ± 0. 07 g in C group and 0. 22 ± 0. 08 g in DC group; DC group had a significantly lower tumor weight than C group（ t = 2. 31,P〈0. 05）,and the tumor inhibition rate was 30. 39%. After immunohistochemical staining,T lymphocyte count was 0 cell /high- power field（ HPF） in C group and 39. 74 ± 5. 11 cells /HPF in DC group; the number of T lymphocytes in DC group was significantly higher than that in C group（ t = 19. 05,P〈0. 05）. Conclusion iAPA- DC /CTL can effectively inhibit the growth of subcutaneous HepG2 xenograft in nude mice.
