TY - JOUR PY - 2010// TI - Effect of adenovirus-mediated CD/TK double suicide gene system on colorectal cancer growth and cytokines in the tumor microenvironment in mice JO - Nan Fang Yi Ke Da Xue Xue Bao A1 - Yao, Xiao-jun A1 - Huang, Zong-hai A1 - Li, Qiang A1 - Wang, Zhao-yang SP - 260 EP - 262 VL - IS - 12 N2 - <p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the effect of adenovirus-mediated CD/TK double suicide gene system on tumor growth and cytokine levels in the tumor microenvironment in mice bearing transplanted colorectal cancer.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>CT26 cells were implanted subcutaneously into 30 Balb/c mice, which were subsequently randomized into the control (n=15) and experimental group (n=15). After the tumor formation, CD/TK double suicide gene system was administered for tumor treatment, and the changes in the tumor volume, tumor inhibition rate, and levels of cytokines in the tumor microenvironment were investigated.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>CD/TK double suicide gene system resulted in a significant inhibition of the tumor growth and significantly increased levels of such cytokines as IL-2, IL-10, TNFalpha and IFNgamma in the tumor microenvironment.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>CD/TK double suicide gene system produces significant tumor inhibition effect and causes obvious cytokine changes in the tumor microenvironment in mice bearing transplanted colorectal cancer.</p>
