Effect of integrin-?1 antisense oligodeoxynucleotides on human pancreatic cancinoma transplanted subcutaneously in nude mice / 中国普通外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of integrin-?1 antisense oligodeoxynucleotide(ASODN) on(human) pancreatic cancinoma transplanted subcutaneously in nude mice.Methods The models of human(pancreatic) cancinoma transplanted subcutaneously were established in nude mice,then divided randomly into 3 groups and different treatment was given respectively(control group,random oligodeoxynucleotide group and ASODN group).After treatment,the weight of nude mice and tumor volume were observed,and the tumor growth inhibitory rate and the tumor response rate were calculated.The expressions of integrin-?1 mRNA and protein in tumor tissue were determined by RT-PCR and Western-blot.Results The tumor growth inhibitory rate in the random oligodexynucleotide group and the ASODN group was 4.75% and 72.70%,respectively.The tumor decrease rate of the ASODN group was 10.91%.The expression level of integrin-?1 mRNA and protein was decreased in the ASODN group compared with other 2 control groups. Conclusions Our findings suggest that integrin-?1 antisense oligodeoxynucleotides result in marked inhibition of human pancreatic(cancinoma) growth in nude mice.It may be a novel treatment approach for human pancreatic carcinoma.
