ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the therapeutic effects of recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) expressing fusion peptide NT4p53(C22)Ant against transplanted liver cancer in ICR mice.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>NT4p53(C22)Ant was constructed, subcloned into recombinant AAV vector, and amplified in 293 packaging cells. The efficacy of rAAV-NT4p53(C22)Ant on tumors derived from H22 cells inoculated subcutaneously in IRC mice was evaluated according to the tumor weight, inhibition rate, survival time of the mice and the histological findings.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>A single dose of rAAV-NT4p53(C22)Ant of 100 microl (2 x 10(11) pfu/ml) injected into the transplanted H22 tumors in the ICR mice resulted in tumor disappearance in 7 (totally 12) mice, and death occurred in only 1 mouse. The injection also resulted in decreased tumor weight and prolonged survival of the mice (for over 70 days). All the 7 mice with only rAAV injection or no treatment all died, with a mean survival of about 30 days. The tumor inhibition rate exceeded 90% in mice with rAAV-NT4p53(C22)Ant injection, significantly higher than that of mice without the injection. The histological examination revealed significantly decreased tumor cells in mice with rAAV-NT4p53(C22)Ant injection as compared with those without such treatment.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>rAAV-NT4p53(C22)Ant can induce apoptosis of the H22 tumor cells transplanted in IRC mice to inhibit the tumor growth and prolong the survival of the mice.</p>
