Seven days later, all transplanted tumor were formed and the mice were intraperitoneally injected 200 mg/kg cytoxan(CTX) to establish the models of tumor-bearing mouse chemotherapy, then they were randomly divided into model group, continuing CTX chemotherapy group(CTX group), and three CHBF(117, 58.5 and 29.25 g/kg) groups. After ten days of treatments, histology was observed, contents of VEGF, KDR and b FGF in serum and tumor tissue were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA), VEGF and b FGF protein expression and MVD tagged by CD34 were detected by immunohistochemisty.RESULTS: MVD in CHBF(117, 58.5 g/kg) and CTX groups was significantly lower than that in model group(P < 0.01); expressions of VEGF, KDR and b FGF in serum and tumor tissue in CHBF(117 g/kg)group were less than those in model group(P <0.05; P < 0.01); the expressions of MVD, VEGF and b FGF in tumor tissue of CHBF(117 g/kg) groupwere also less than those in CTX group(P < 0.05;P < 0.01).CONCLUSION: CHBF can effectively reduce the expression of VEGF, KDR and b FGF in serum and tumor tissue, and decrease MVD and delay tumor progression.展开更多
