摘要
目的:探讨酪氨酸激酶抑制剂 Erlotinib 联合放疗对鼻咽癌裸鼠移植瘤的作用。方法将鼻咽癌细胞株 CNE2接种于32只裸鼠后腿皮下,8 d 后肿瘤体积在100~200 mm 3之间,将裸鼠按体积大小随机分为4组:对照组、Erlotinib 组、放疗组和放疗+Erlotinib 组,每组8只。分组第1天予以照射1次8 Gy,Erlotinib 分组第1天予以灌胃给药,1.6 mg/次,1次/d,连用2周。停药1周后处死动物,测量瘤块体积和重量,采用免疫组织化学法检测各组标本中 EGFR 和 p -EGFR 的表达情况,并进行统计学分析。结果对照组、Erlotinib 组、放疗组、放疗+Erlotinib 组的瘤重分别为(2.60±1.51)、(1.56±0.67)、(0.71±0.42)、(0.48±0.31)g,放疗+Erlotinib 组瘤重小于 Erlotinib 及放疗组(P =0.026,P =0.047)。各组 EGFR 表达无明显差异,p -EGFR 在放疗组明显增强,放疗+Erlotinib 组阳性表达率最低。结论Erlotinib 通过抑制 EGFR 磷酸化增强了鼻咽癌的放射敏感性。
Objective To investigate the effects of radiotherapy combined with erlotinib on nasopharyngeal carci -noma (NPC) xenografts in nude mice.Methods The NPC cell lines CNE2 were injected s.c.into the hind legs of athy-mic nude mice.When tumor volume was approximately between 100 -200 mm 3 , nude mice were randomly divided into four groups: control, erlotinib, radiation and radiotherapy in combination with erlotinib groups .Radiotherapy was delive-red with 8 Gy in one time on the first day of randomization .Erlotinib was administered by oral gavage (1.6 mg once dai-ly) for 2 weeks.The nude mice were sacrificed 1 week after stopping the treatment , and the tumor size and weight were measured.The expression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and phosphorylated EGFR (p -EGFR) were de-tected in histologic sections of xenografts by immunohistochemistry and analyzed by statistical method .Results Erlotinib combined with radiotherapy could significantly slow down tumor growth .Tumor weights in control group , erlotinib group, radiotherapy group and radiotherapy in combination with erlotinib group were (2.60 ±1.51), (1.56 ±0.67), (0.71 ± 0.42) and (0.48 ±0.31) g, respectively.Compared with erlotinib group or radiotherapy group , radiotherapy in combina-tion with erlotinib group significantly inhibited the growth of xenografts in nude mice (P =0.026, P =0.047).There was no significant difference in expression of EGFR among the 6 groups.Conclusion Erlotinib can enhance radiosensitivity of NPC by the inhibition of EGFR phosphorylation .
