目的:探讨吉非替尼(gefitinib)联合靶向EGFR DNA疫苗对小鼠Lewis肺癌体内外的抑制作用。方法:用鸡EGFR与兔IgG Fc段异种融合DNA疫苗pVAX1/cEGFRrFc免疫小鼠制备抗血清,ELISA方法测定抗血清的效价。MTT法检测Lewis细胞的生长情况。建立Lewis肺癌鼠移植瘤模型,随机分为疫苗组、吉非替尼组、吉非替尼+疫苗组和对照组,观察各组小鼠肿瘤体积、重量及生存情况。结果:pVAX1/cEGFRrFc DNA疫苗免疫小鼠后抗EGFR血清效价为1∶1 000。与抗血清组或吉非替尼组相比,抗血清+吉非替尼组可显著抑制Lewis细胞的生长(P<0.05)。体内实验显示,吉非替尼+疫苗组小鼠移植瘤生长缓慢, 荷留小鼠生存率显著提高(P<0.01) 。结论:以EGFR为靶点的DNA疫苗和靶向药物吉非替尼之间具有协同性抗肿瘤作用,DNA疫苗主动免疫可以提高吉非替尼的疗效。

[Abstract]
Objective:To observe the inhibitory effect of gefitinib combined with DNA vaccine targeting EGFR against implanted Lewis tumors in mice.Methods: Chicken EGFR L2 domain and rabbit IgG Fc domain fusion pVAX1/cEGFRrFc DNA vaccine was injected into mice and the titer of antiEGFR in serum was determined by ELISA. The growth of Lewis cells was measured by MTT. Lewis lung cancer mouse models were established and were randomly divided into vaccine, gefitinib, gefitinib+vaccine, and control groups. The tumor volume and weight and survival of mice were examined in different groups.Results:The titer of antiEGFR in mice vaccinated with pVAX1/cEGFRrFc plasmid was 1∶1 000. The proliferation of Lewis cells in antiEGFR combined with gefitinib was significantly inhibited compared with those in antiEGFR and gefitinib groups (P<0.05). In vivo results showed that the growth of implanted Lewis tumors in vaccine+gefitinib group was greatly inhibited, and the survival rate of Lewisbearing mice was significalty increased (P<001). Conclusion:DNA vaccine targeting EGFR has a synergistic effect with gefitinib in antitumor activity, and this DNA vaccine can increase the efficiency of gefitinib.
