    Abstract:
    Objective:To determine the feasibility and efficacy of combined murine interleukin 12 (mIL-12) and human interleukin 2 (hIL-2) gene therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma in a rat model. Methods: The retroviral vector encoding mIL-12/hIL-2 gene was constructed and then transfected into packaging cell line. The cells were injected into rats in the established hepatoma at different time points. The therapeutic effect, immune function and toxicological response were evaluated. Results:Intratumoral injection of recombinant retroviral vector encoding mIL-12/hIL-2 gene resulted in marked hepatoma regression. The 35 d survival rates of the subgroups treated on the first,third,fifth and seventh day after tumor implantation were 100%, 100%, 30% and 10% respectively. The average survival time of the IL-12+IL-2 treatment group was superior to those of the physiological saline group(P<0.01), retroviral empty vector group(P<0.01), IL-2 treatment group(P<0.01) and IL-12 treatment group(P<0.01). The immunological study showed that the number of hepatoma infiltrating lymphocytes was increased in the IL-12+IL-2 treatment group. Conclusion:The retroviral packaging cell line encoding mIL-12 and hIL-2 gene via intratumoral injection inhibits the growth of hepatocellular carcinoma significantly. The therapeutical effects of early administration is superior to that of later one.

    Abstract:
    Objective: To construct the potent targeting gene delivery and expression system, and to investigate the special killing effect of HSV-tk/GCV system on human liver cancer cells in vitro mediated by it. Methods: The anti-TfR ScFv-GAL4 fusion protein expression vector ScFv-GAL4-pET28a and the eukaryocyte expression plasmid pEBAF/tk-GAL4rec were constructed by recombinant DNA technology. After the induction by IPTG, we got the anti-TfR ScFv-GAL4 fusion protein as delivery vector to transfect pEBAF/tk-GAL4rec into the human liver cancer cells line HepG2,SMMC7721 and lung cancer cells line A549 which all over-express TfR via receptor-mediated endocytosis. The positive cell clones were selected by hygromycin and were named HepG2/tk,SMMC7721/tk and A549/tk respectively. Then MTT method was used to determine the killing effect of GCV on them. Results: The constructions of the ScFv-Gal4 fusion protein and the recombination expression plasmid pEBAF/tk-GAL4rec were confirmed by double enzyme digestion, SDS-PAGE and sequencing. In the experiment of cytotoxicity effect, the HepG2/tk cells that over-secrete AFP (845 ng/ml) were highly sensitive to the toxicity of GCV, whereas the SMMC7721/tk cells that under-secrete AFP (2 ng/ml) were slightly sensitive to GCV, and the A549/tk cells that don t secrete AFP were not.Conclusions:The double-targeting and tissue-specific HSV-tk/GCV anti-tumor system has been constructed successfully, and it displays a good targeting to tumor cells.

    Abstract:
    Objective: Designing dendritic-cell-based vaccines against cancer concerned with the infection of EBV to solve tumor escape. Methods: CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells of bone marrow were cultured in presence of hGM-CSF,hTNF-α,hIL-3,hIL-4 in vitro for two weeks to obtain large amount of DC. DC were characterized by FACS analysis and pulsed with the EBV envelope glycoprotein gp340. The gp340-loaded DC initiate T lymphocytes to induce T lymphocytes activated (CTL) against cancer concerned with the infection of EBV. Results: Marrow-derived DC expressing high levels of CD1а have typical dendritic morphology. They could acquire Epstein-Barr virus latent membrane glycoprotein gp340 efficiently and induce T cells increasing stimulatory capacity in MLR. Only gp340-loaded DC could induce special CTL against tumor cells concerned with the infection of EBV in cytotoxicity assays. Conclusion: Using DC pulsed with EBV vaccines against EBV infection could start up anti-tumor immunity and induce specific CTLs to availability kill tumor cells associated with EBV in vitro.

Tiam-1 ASODNS-Lf significantly inhibitted Rho protein expression ratio from 27.86% to 16.86%(P<0.001), which related to signal transduction pathway. Conclusions:Antisense gene inhibits invasion and metastasis of tumor cells through a cascade reaction of gene-protein-cell effect and provides the theoretical and experimental bases for clinical therapy and study of antimetastasis.

    Abstract:
    Objective: To investigate the inhibitory effects of human angiostatin (AS) on the subcutaneously transplanted mouse glioma. Methods: Effects of AS on the proliferation of angioendothelial cell line ECV-304 and human glioma cell line TJ-905 were observed with MTT method. Mouse model of subcutaneously transplanted of glioma line G422 was established. AS was injected subcutaneously, tumor ratio and tumor in hibitory rate were estimated. Results: (1) Inhibitory effects of AS on ECV-304 enhanced with the increase of dose, while AS exerted no effect on TJ-905 ; (2) It was shown with animal experiments that tumer inhibitory rates were 21.8% and 84.3% with AS doses of 10 mg and 50 mg·kg-1·d-1, respectively; (3) Immunochemical factor Ⅷ staining indicated there the differences between the control and the control and the test groups in both the angiodevelopment and quantity. Conclusion: There was no inhibitory effect for AS to angiolorna cell in vitro, however in vivo, it inhibited the glioma growth via its inhibitory effect on the proliferation of angioend othelial cell line. It was then suggested that AS would be of wide application in tumor treatment.

    Abstract:
    Objective:To evaluate the value of lung cancer treatment by chemotherapeutic drugs through bronchoartery perfusion combined with interferon.Methods:40 cases with lung cancer were randomly divided into 2 groups. 20 cases accepted chemotherapeutic drugs through bronchoartery perfusion combined with interferon were considered as observed group, and the other 20 cases accepted only chemotherapeutic drugs through bronchoartery perfusion as control group. Χ2 test was used to compare the differences of the recent curative effects and survival rates between the two groups. Results:The total effective rate (CR+PR) of the observed group during the first treatment was 60.0% (12/20), which was not significant as compared with that of control group (40.0%) (Χ2= 1.60, P>0.05). But the survival rates of the observed group during 1 and 2 years were 85.0% (17/20) and 45.0% (9/20), respectively. There were significant differences as compared with 50.0% (10/20) and 10.0% (2/20) in control group (Χ2= 5.58 and 6.14, P<0.05).Conclusion:Bronchoartery perfusion with chemotherapeutic drugs combined with interferon can raise the survival rates of patients with lung cancer, and is a valuably therapeutic method.
