METHODS The influence of cell cycle kinetics on hepatic metastases of BALB/c mice colonic adenocarcinoma (CT26) with Octreotide treatment in vivo was investigated by flow cytometry. The serum CEA levels were also determined. RESULTS The results showed that the proliferative index (PI) and the S phase fraction in hepatic tumors of mice treated with Octreotide decreased markedly and the G 0/G 1 phase fraction increased significantly in comparison with the control ( P <0 01). After administration of Octreotide, the serum CEA level were also lower than that of control group. The incidence of liver metastases in the treated group were lower than that of control. The mice body weight loss was slow and the survival was long in the treated group. Furthermore, the changes of PI and the fraction distribution of S phase or G 0/G 1 phase in cell cycle were closely related to the serum CEA levels. CONCLUSION Octreotide may be useful for inhibiting the hepatic metastases of colonic carcinoma.展开更多

The results of SDS-PAGE indicated thatwith silver staining both male and female worms of Guangxiisolate showed some definite differences in their protein profile,namely, absence of one band between 50-75 kDa in maleworms and marked reduction in quantity of > 110 and 30 kDabands in female worms. There was no obvious differenceamong other isolates both in male and female worms. TheEITB patterns were similar in S. japonicum of Anhui andHubei, and it was also the case with isolates from Yunnan andSichuau, except that Yuunan female worms had a distinct band展开更多
