Before treatment and after 8 weeks of treatment, RIA method was used to determine serum esophageal cancer-related tumor marker levels, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to determine serum angiogenesis index levels, and flow cytometry was used to measure cellular immunity indexes.Results: Before treatment, the differences in serum tumor marker and angiogenesis index levels as well as cellular immune function indexes were not statistically significant between the two groups. After 8 weeks of treatment, serum tumor markers CY211, CEA, SCC, CA724 and CA125 levels of observation group were lower than those of control group, angiogenesis indexes HIF-α, VEGF and MMP-9 levels were lower than those of control group, and peripheral blood cellular immunity indexes CD4+ and CD4+/CD8+ levels were higher than those of control group while CD8+ level was lower than that of control group. Conclusion: Nedaplatin combined with paclitaxel liposome can more effectively reduce the tumor load, causes less adverse effects, and has good curative effect and security.展开更多

To ameliorate the disadvantages of paclitaxel, this study designed liposomes to load paclitaxel, adding the acidsensitive material cholesteryl hemisuccinate(CHEMS) to increase the accumulation of the drug in the tumor site. To begin, we used a high-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)method to determine the content of PTX and the encapsulation efficiency. Then, we prepared paclitaxel-loaded acid-sensitive liposomes(PTX ASLs) by a thin-film dispersion method.We investigated the physical and chemical properties of the liposomes. The particle size was 210.8 nm, the polydispersity index(PDI) was 0.182 and the ζ-potential was-31.2 mV.The liposome shape was observed by transmission electron microscopy(TEM), and the results showed that the liposomes were round with a homogenous size distribution. The release characteristics of the liposomes in vitro were studied via a dynamic dialysis method. The results showed that the prepared liposomes had acid sensitivity and sustained release properties. An in vitro cellular uptake assay of MCF-7 cells showed that the cell uptake of coumarin-6-loaded acid-sensitive liposomes was significantly higher than that of free coumarin-6. The cytotoxicity of the PTX ASLs was significantly higher than that of paclitaxel. In conclusion,these results showed that the prepared liposomes had clear acid-sensitive release characteristics and a higher cell uptake rate and cytotoxicity than free PTX. The system is very suitable for targeted cancer therapy with paclitaxel.展开更多
