摘要
目的 观察锯叶棕提取物(SR)对大鼠胶质瘤的作用及对其免疫系统的影响.方法 制作SD大鼠皮下胶质瘤模型,分成荷瘤组(n=10)、低剂量SR治疗组(n=10)、高剂量SR治疗组(n=10),另取10只大鼠为空白对照组.大鼠造模后饲养1周开始给予锯叶棕提取物及安慰剂,低剂量组50 mg/kg、隔日灌胃一次,高剂量组300 mg/kg、隔日灌胃1次,其他组给予相同剂量的蒸馏水灌胃.喂养大鼠4周后,处死大鼠测瘤重、计算抑瘤率,TUNEL染色法检测肿瘤细胞凋亡,MTT法检测T淋巴细胞增殖活性.结果 (1)与荷瘤组比较,用药组瘤重明显减少(F =62.678,P=0.000);与低剂量组比较,高剂量组抑瘤率明显提高(P<0.05).(2)荷瘤组肿瘤凋亡细胞明显偏少,用药组肿瘤凋亡细胞百分率明显增加,且SR高剂量组细胞凋亡最显著(F=1.287E3,P=0.000).(3)与用药组及空白组比较,荷瘤组脾T淋巴细胞增殖活性降低;与荷瘤组比较,用药组T淋巴细胞增殖活性增加,且SR高剂量组T淋巴细胞增殖活性明显提高(F=103.565,P=0.000).结论 锯叶棕提取物能够激活T淋巴细胞,增强机体免疫功能,杀伤肿瘤细胞、诱导肿瘤细胞凋亡,从而抑制了胶质瘤的生长,药物浓度越大、其抑瘤作用越明显.
Objective To investigate the effect of saw palmetto extract (SR) on GL261 glioma in rats and immune system.Methods The 40 rats were divided into 4 groups randomly,one was the control group without tumor (n =10),the other 30 rats were given subcutaneous inoculation of tumor cells and then divided into 3 groups:tumor-bearing group (n =10),low dose SR group (n =10),and high dose SR group (n =10).After 1 weeks feeded,the rats of SR groups were given the saw palmetto extract,low dose group 50 mg/kg once a day every other day and 300 mg/kg of high dose group every other day.The tumor-bearing groups received the same dose of distilled water.After 4 weeks feeding,we measured the tumor weight and the inhibition rate was calculated.The tumor cell apoptosis was detected by TdT mediated dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) staining.The splenic T lymphocyte proliferation was tested by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTF).Results (1) The SR groups compared to tumor group,the tumor weight was significantly reduced (F =62.678,P =0.000).The tumor inhibition rate was significantly higher in high dose group.(2) The apoptosis of tumor cells in tumor-bearing group was significantly less than SR groups and the apoptosis was significantly increased after treatment with SR,especially in high dose SR group (F =1.287E3,P =0.000).(3) Compared to SR groups and control group,T lymphocyte proliferation of tumor-bearing group reduced obviously.After treated with SR,T lymphocyte proliferation significantly increased and was higher in high-dose group (F =103.565,P =0.000).Conclusions Saw palmetto extract can activate T lymphocytes and induce apoptosis to tumor cells.Its function was related to SR concentration.
