Abstract:

ObjectiveTo investigate the anti-tumor effect and mechanism of C-3 extractive from Periplaneta americana on S180 sarcoma-bearing mice. MethodsS180 sarcoma-bearing mice were randomly divided into model grouppositive control CTXgrouphigh-dosemedium-dose and low-dose C-3 groupsand a normal control groupwith 10 mice in each group. The pathological changes of tumor tissue in each group were observed after administrationand the tumor inhibition rate was calculated. ELISA kits were used to test the levels of vascular endothelial growth factorVEGFand telomeraseTEin serum. The expression of p53B-cell lymphoma 2Bcl-2), cysteinyl asparate specific protease-3Caspase-3), microvessel density MVDand cyclooxygenase-2COX-2protein in tumor tissue were detected by immunohistochemistry. ResultsThe tumor inhibition rates of CTX grouphigh-dosemedium-doseand low-dose C-3 groups were 85.71%55.71%44.28%34.28%respectively. The necrotic area of tumor tissue was obvious in high-dose and medium-dose C-3 groups. Compared with the model groupthe TE activity was decreased in high-dose C-3 groupP<0.05), and the expression of p53Bcl-2MVD and COX-2 in tumor tissues of high-dose and medium-dose C-3 groups were significantly decreasedP<0.01), while the Caspase-3 expression was significantly increasedP<0.01. ConclusionC-3 can significantly inhibit the growth of S180 sarcomaand its mechanism may be related to the reduction of TE activitythe decrease of p53Bcl-2MVDCOX-2 expressionand the increase of Caspase-3 expression in tumor tissue.
