文摘目的探讨125I标记的Flt4多抗(125I-Flt4PcAb)对荷瘤小鼠前哨淋巴结(sentinel lymph node,SLN)的检测,为应用Flt4PcAb进行SLN特异性定位提供实验依据。方法建立BALB/c裸小鼠后肢荷瘤模型,7周后应用125I-Flt4PcAb检测肿瘤的SLN,健侧作为对照,切取窝淋巴结探测γ射线的每分钟计数率(count per minute,Cpm),并进行HE及角蛋白免疫组化染色;分析不同状态淋巴结摄取125I-Flt4PcAb的特点。结果BALB/c裸小鼠后肢皮下注射Tca-8113细胞悬液,移植瘤成功率达100%;患侧70枚窝淋巴结中,HE染色3枚(4.3%)出现肿瘤转移;角蛋白免疫组化染色为5枚(7.1%);125I-Flt4PcAb摄取方面,肿瘤转移淋巴结、反应性增生淋巴结和正常淋巴结之间均有显著差异(P<0.05)。结论BALB/c裸小鼠后肢皮下注射Tca-8113细胞悬液可成功致瘤,但淋巴结转移率低;免疫组化染色较HE染色检测肿瘤转移更敏感;125I-Flt4PcAb能够检测到荷瘤鼠的SLN,肿瘤转移淋巴结对125I-Flt4PcAb的摄取下降。
