It has been passaged for more than 212 generations. Moderate round cells were predominant and most of them were mononuclear. Some characteristics of malignant cells and A-type viral-like particles were observed by electron microscopy. The results of cytochemical studies (DNA, RNA, SDH, 5' AMPase, ACP etc.) were comparable to the ultramicroscopic results. It multiplied approximately 27.4 fold on day 5 with mitotic index reaching 1.8% on day 3. This cell line was a hyperdiploid with karyotype of 45 or 45, -2X, tril2, tri17, +M1-5. Cell agglutination was observed when treated with ConA (≥7 fig, ml). Spontaneous agglutination might also take place without adding any ConA. After 5×106 cells of Ca 761-86 suspension were transplanted into the normal inbred 615 mice by different ways (subcutan eous, intrafoot-pad or intraperitoneal), the transplan lability rate reached 100%. Spontaneous remission was never observed and its metastatic ability reserved. PPLO were not detected. Ca 761-86 may be of value for practical purposes.展开更多

The causes of cancer could be attributed to change in several tumor suppressor genes. The relationship between molecule associated to senescence and clinical prognosis of patients affected by mammary cancer is little known. Beyond a collection of data, the major interest of the present study was to carry out a clinical follow-up of patients affected by these tumors, through association with new molecular markers by immunohistochemical technic. Upon completing the study, 15 patients survived, while 45 died. In the case of malignant neoplasms, 40 patients died because of the illness. The type of surgery most used by veterinarian surgeons was the simple lumpectomy, followed by the regional mastectomy. Sentinel node was removed by surgery only when clearly affected. Result: Markings against steroid hormones were positive. Regarding the markings against HER2 and Ki-67, they were negative in all cases. The markings against P53 and CD31 were all positives. Markings against molecules associated with cellular senescence were all positives. No statistical differences were found in immunomarcation for the different antigens used as clinical prognosis factors in mammary neoplasms. Conclusions: According to the study conditions, the survival of patients affected by breast tumors is directly related to diagnosis and malignancy histological grade, but not to animal breed, number of affected glands or patient reproductive status. On the other hand, immunohistochemical markings were not related to the patient prognosis. For this reason, it is important to highlight the persistance of a high percentage of mammary neoplasm cases clinically diagnosed with poor results on patient survival. Thus, educating owners and veterinarians for using diagnostic available tools to improve the prognosis after surgical animals affected by breast cancer is quite necessary.展开更多

Methods： One hundred and ten patients with MC were randomly assigned to two groups. The 58 patients in the tested group were treated with SFI in cooperation with chemotherapy of CAF protocol （Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin and Fluorouracil）, while the 52 patients in the control group were treated with chemotherapy of the same protocol alone. Changes of the patients＇ quality of life （QOF）, adverse reaction that occurred, peripheral lymphocyte count and killing activity of single karyocyte before and after treatment between the two groups were compared. Results： Patients＇ QOF elevating rate after treatment in the tested group and the control group was 34.5% and 13.5% respectively; The lowering of peripheral blood cell count of WBC, platelet and lymphocyte as well as that of the killing activity of single peripheral karyocyte on various kinds of MC cells were all milder and recovery sooner than those in the control group. Conclusion： SFI in combination with chemotherapy in treating MC could reduce the occurrence of adverse reaction to chemotherapy, improve clinical symptoms, elevate QOF and enhance immunity in patients with MC.展开更多

Methods： Metastasis rat mammary tumor-1 cells were transplanted into the left hind limb tibia of SD rats to establish the bone metastasis of the mammary cancer model. The modeled rats were treated with SGD for observing its effect on rats＇ pain behavior, including 50% paw withdrawal threshold （50% PWT） after von Frey fiber stimulation, burden difference of bilateral feet, and thermal withdrawal latency （TWL）, with zoledronic acid as the positive control. Moreover, the damage in the tibia sample of rats was scored by an iconographic method, and the bone mineral density （BMD） as well as the bone mineral content （BMC） were estimated. Results： The model established showed characteristics of mixed metastasis, revealing the manifestations of tumor development, bone destruction, cancerous pain, etc. In the SGD-treated group, 50% PWT was prolonged （8.13±4.76 vs. 2.30±2.19）, and TWL was longer （3.48±0.62 s vs. 2.89± 0.26 s） than those in the control group, respectively （P〈0.05 or P〈0.01）. Iconographic scoring also showed improvement of BMD （0.134±0.009 vs. 0.120±0.007, P〈0.01） and an elevating trend of BMC in the SGD-treated group. Conclusion： SGD could effectively alleviate the cancerous pain of bone metastasis and mitigate the metastasis that cause osteolytic destruction of bone.展开更多

Methods： The model of mammary cancer MA-891 cell strain transplanted tumor of TA2 mice with lung metastasis were developed to observe the effect of Runing II on the growth and metastasis of the transplanted tumor. The immunohistochemical method and image analysis were adopted to detect the levels of vascular endothelial growth factor （VEGF）, vascular endothelial growth factor receptor （VEGFR）, and micro-vessel count （MVC） and micro-vessel area （MVA）. Results： In the Runing II group, the tumor weight inhibition rate and the lung metastasis inhibition rate were 37.3% and 65.4% respectively, the tumor growth and lung metastasis were obviously inhibited; And the levels of VEGF and VEGFR, MVC and MVA were significantly decreased as compared with those in the tumor-bearing control group （P〈0.05）. Conclusion： The Chinese herbal preparation Running II can inhibit the metastasis of tumor through inhibiting the angiogenesis, and the mechanism is possibly related with down-regulation of VEGF and VEGFR expression.展开更多

The results were as follows: In acupuncture group,NK cell activity and T-lymphocyte positive rate of acid a-naphthyl acetate esterase (ANAE) and lymphocytetransformation rate were all increased. Compared with the control group, there was a significant difference( P < 0. 01 ) . The difference was insignificant when compared with normal group ( P >0 . 05) . Comparing thepathology grading of acupuncture group with control group, it showed marked difference in pathological sec-tion ( P< 0 . 01 ) . Adenoid structure and the degree of lymphocytic infiltration also have marked difference be-tween acupuncture and control group ( P < 0. 05 ) . Less tumour volume in acupuncture group than in controlgroup were observed ( P< 0. 01 ) . This indicated that acupuncture might increase the immunologic function oftransplanted mammary cancer in mice and inhibit the growth of mammary cancer and enhance both differentia-tion level of mammary cancer cells and lymphocytic infiltration. Possibly acupuncture might reduce the malig-nancy of mammary cancer cells.展开更多

文摘This experiment mainly describes the effects of acupuncture on immunologic function andhistopathology of transplanted mammary cancer in mice. The results were as follows: In acupuncture group,NK cell activity and T-lymphocyte positive rate of acid a-naphthyl acetate esterase (ANAE) and lymphocytetransformation rate were all increased. Compared with the control group, there was a significant difference( P < 0. 01 ) . The difference was insignificant when compared with normal group ( P >0 . 05) . Comparing thepathology grading of acupuncture group with control group, it showed marked difference in pathological sec-tion ( P< 0 . 01 ) . Adenoid structure and the degree of lymphocytic infiltration also have marked difference be-tween acupuncture and control group ( P < 0. 05 ) . Less tumour volume in acupuncture group than in controlgroup were observed ( P< 0. 01 ) . This indicated that acupuncture might increase the immunologic function oftransplanted mammary cancer in mice and inhibit the growth of mammary cancer and enhance both differentia-tion level of mammary cancer cells and lymphocytic infiltration. Possibly acupuncture might reduce the malig-nancy of mammary cancer cells.
