一种抑制肿瘤干细胞的方法及调控肿瘤血管正常化的方法 【技术领域】
本发明涉及肿瘤治疗领域,更具体的,涉及一种抑制肿瘤干细胞的方法及调控肿瘤血管正常化的方法。
【背景技术】
肿瘤干细胞是一类具有自我更新能力与多向分化潜能的细胞,是肿瘤不断生长的根源,同时也是肿瘤发生、转移与复发的“起始细胞”。肿瘤干细胞的形成是导致肿瘤细胞对化疗药物治疗失败的原因之一。
另一方面,肿瘤发展出了与正常血管系统不同的自身功能性血管。肿瘤血管结构高度异常,具体表现为血管密度异常,血管轮廓不规则,基底膜和内皮层不完整或缺失,并且缺乏周细胞和平滑肌。此外,肿瘤血管功能高度异常,包括不稳定的血流速度和方向,高血管阻力,高血管脆性,红细胞淤塞,白血球粘连,血小板聚集和肿瘤细胞阻塞血管。这些异常功能导致药物很难递送到肿瘤内部,从而使肿瘤深部细胞与肿瘤干细胞免于被药物杀伤。
【发明内容】
针对目前肿瘤化疗疗效差这一问题,本发明提供一种抑制肿瘤干细胞的方法及调控肿瘤血管正常化的方法,其目的在于通过高压氧治疗降低患者肿瘤组织中干细胞的比例,同时调控肿瘤血管正常化,提高肿瘤化疗的疗效,解决临床上化疗药物疗效差这一问题。
为实现上述目的,本发明提供了一种降低肿瘤组织中干细胞比例的方法,对肿瘤患者进行高压氧治疗,以降低肿瘤患者其肿瘤组织中干细胞的比例;所述高压氧治疗具体为:将肿瘤患者置于高压氧环境中进行治疗。
本发明还提供了一种调控肿瘤组织血管正常化的方法,对肿瘤患者进行高压氧治疗,以调控促进肿瘤患者其肿瘤组织血管正常化;所述高压氧治疗具体为:将肿瘤患者置于高压氧环境中进行治疗。
总体而言,通过本发明所构思的以上技术方案与现有技术相比,能够取得以下有益效果:
(1)本发明通过对肿瘤患者进行高压氧治疗,即将肿瘤患者置于高压氧环境中进行治疗,实验发现,对肿瘤患者进行高压氧治疗能够显著降低肿瘤组织中干细胞 的比例,比如某实施例中对4T1乳腺癌原位瘤小鼠进行高压氧处理,与不进行高压氧处理的对照组相比,小鼠肿瘤干细胞的比率降低了57%。
(2)本发明将高压氧治疗与静脉注射纳米化疗药物相结合,对肿瘤患者进行抗肿瘤治疗,实验发现对肿瘤患者进行高压氧治疗能够进一步降低肿瘤组织中干细胞的比例。优选实施例中,与单用纳米化疗药物相比,高压氧联合纳米化疗药物Abraxane和Doxil在不增加毒副作用的同时,将肿瘤内部干细胞的占比分别降低了53%和97%。
(3)本发明通过对肿瘤患者进行高压氧治疗,即将肿瘤患者置于高压氧环境中进行治疗,实验发现,对肿瘤患者进行高压氧治疗能够显著改善肿瘤组织血管,比如某实施例中对4T1乳腺癌原位瘤小鼠进行高压氧处理,与不进行高压氧处理的对照组相比,Saline组血管呈现弯曲增粗的形态,而HBO组的血管形态正常。
(4)本发明将高压氧治疗与静脉注射纳米化疗药物相结合,对肿瘤患者进行抗肿瘤治疗,实验发现对肿瘤患者进行高压氧治疗能够显著调控肿瘤血管,使肿瘤血管整体密度降低,新生肿瘤血管减少,肿瘤血管弯曲程度降低,并增加肿瘤血管中血液的灌注量,促进纳米化疗药物在肿瘤部位的穿透与富集,同时提高肿瘤细胞对药物的摄取。优选实施例中,与单用纳米化疗药物相比,高压氧联合纳米化疗药物Abraxane和Doxil在不增加毒副作用的同时,将药物在治疗部位的富集量分别提高了1.38倍和1.26倍。
(5)本发明将高压氧治疗与静脉注射纳米化疗药物相结合,对肿瘤患者进行抗肿瘤治疗,实验发现对肿瘤患者进行高压氧治疗能够显著降低肿瘤组织中干细胞的比例,同时调控肿瘤血管,使肿瘤血管整体密度降低,新生肿瘤血管减少,肿瘤血管弯曲程度降低,并增加肿瘤血管中血液的灌注量,促进纳米化疗药物在肿瘤部位的穿透与富集,同时提高肿瘤细胞对药物的摄取,最终提高肿瘤化疗的疗效,并且具有良好的安全性。在4T1原位模型和转移模型的实施例中,HBO联合Doxil与单用Doxil相比,小鼠生存期分别延长了11天和14.5天。
(6)本发明提出的高压氧联合纳米化疗药物用于肿瘤治疗的方法简单易于操作,安全可靠,有利于临床转化。

【具体实施方式】
下面结合实施例,对本发明的具体实施方式作进一步详细描述。以下实施例用于说明本发明,但不用来限制本发明的范围。
本发明提供的一种降低肿瘤组织中干细胞比例和/或调控肿瘤组织血管正常化的方法,通过对肿瘤患者进行高压氧治疗,以降低肿瘤患者其肿瘤组织中干细胞的比例,并调控促进肿瘤患者其肿瘤组织中的血管正常化;所述高压氧治疗具体为:将肿瘤患者置于高压氧环境中进行治疗。
本发明一些实施例中,对肿瘤患者进行高压氧治疗包括如下步骤:将肿瘤患者置于舱体内,逐渐通入纯氧使舱内气压升高到2-5倍大气压,维持一段时间后,放气使舱内气压降至大气压。实验证明对肿瘤患者进行高压氧治疗,能够显著降低肿瘤组织中干细胞的比例,并有效改善肿瘤组织中的血管形态。
本发明一些实施例中提供的降低肿瘤组织中干细胞比例和/或调控肿瘤组织血管正常化的方法,通过将高压氧治疗与纳米化疗药物治疗相结合,以进一步降低肿瘤患者其肿瘤组织中干细胞的比例,并调控促进肿瘤患者其肿瘤组织中的血管正常化,具体包括如下步骤:
(1)对肿瘤患者进行高压氧治疗;所述高压氧治疗通过增加肿瘤患者所处环境的气压及吸入氧气的浓度来提高溶解于肿瘤患者血液中氧气的量,从而提高各组织中氧的灌注;
(2)对肿瘤患者静脉注射纳米化疗药物。
原则上本发明不限定高压氧治疗和静脉注射纳米化疗药物治疗的先后顺序。
优选实施例中,对肿瘤患者进行单次或多次高压氧治疗后,再对肿瘤患者静脉注射纳米化疗药物。实验发现首先对肿瘤患者进行高压氧治疗,可以改善肿瘤的乏氧环境,降低肿瘤组织中干细胞的占比,尤为重要地,能够显著调控肿瘤血管并促进纳米化疗药物在肿瘤部位的穿透和富集,增强纳米化疗药物的抗肿瘤疗效。
高压氧(Hyperbaric oxygen,HBO)治疗是指间歇性地在高于正常大气压条件下给予病人纯氧的治疗手段。目前通常采用的治疗压力是2-2.5个大气压(2-2.5ATA,1ATA=101.32KPa)。高压氧治疗的原理是通过增加病人所处环境的气压及吸入氧气的 浓度来提高溶解于血液中氧气的量,从而提高各组织中氧的灌注。高压氧能够有效提高组织中的氧分压、缓解组织缺氧、减少水肿、激活血管新生和胶原合成,因此广泛应用于各种疾病的预防与治疗,比如用于CO中毒,减压病和气压伤等。然而本发明将高压氧与纳米化疗药物联合,通过高压氧改善肿瘤组织乏氧,降低肿瘤组织中干细胞的占比,尤为重要地,能够显著调控肿瘤血管正常化并促进纳米化疗药物在肿瘤部位的穿透和富集,增强纳米化疗药物的抗肿瘤疗效。
本发明对肿瘤患者进行高压氧治疗可以按照现有技术高压氧治疗的常规方式进行,一些实施例中,对肿瘤患者进行高压氧治疗具体为:将肿瘤患者置于密闭舱体内,逐渐通入纯氧使舱内气压升高到2-5倍大气压,维持一段时间后,放气使舱内气压降至大气压。纳米化疗药物治疗方法为:通过静脉注射纳米化疗药物。
一些实施例中,将肿瘤患者置于密闭舱体内,逐渐通入纯氧使舱内气压升高到2-5倍大气压,优选为2-2.5倍大气压,维持1-4小时(优选为1-2小时)后,缓慢放气使舱内气压降至大气压。
在一个优选实施方式中,高压氧治疗与纳米化疗药物给药的先后次序可变,优选为先高压氧治疗,随后静脉注射纳米化疗药物。
本发明所述高压氧治疗与静脉注射纳米化疗药物之间的间隔时间为0-12小时。优选间隔时间为1-12小时,进一步优选为1-3小时。
本发明对肿瘤患者进行静脉注射纳米化疗药物之前或之后,对肿瘤患者给予1-10次高压氧治疗,优选实施例中给予2-5次。
本发明一些实施例中,重复步骤(1)和步骤(2)以完成一次治疗,持续治疗不少于1次。
本发明可根据实际应用情况调整纳米化疗药物的剂量,一些实施例中,每一至三周对肿瘤患者静脉注射纳米化疗药物一次,其单次注射剂量为100-300mg/m 2
本发明优选实施例中,每一次静脉注射纳米化疗药物之前,对肿瘤患者进行至少一次的高压氧治疗,其高压氧治疗频率不限,可根据实际需要对肿瘤患者进行每天、每隔一天、每隔两天、每隔三天或每隔四天等的高压氧治疗。在一个优选实施方式中,每天给予高压氧治疗1-5次,优选为1-2次。
纳米化疗药物的注射剂量可依据个体差异而定,比如静脉注射每2周或每3周一次,直至疾病进展或出现不可耐受的毒性。一些实施例中,根据确定的纳米化疗药物的用量和用法,在每一次注射纳米化疗药物之前,进行每周1-7次的高压氧治疗。
本发明采用的纳米化疗药物包括已应用于临床或未应用于临床的各种纳米药物,包括Abraxane、Doxil等药物。本发明纳米化疗药物的静脉注射剂量可参考不同的纳米化疗药物类型其临床上采用的注射剂量,以及相应的注射频次。比如Abraxane在临床上的推荐剂量为260mg/m 2,每3周给一次药。纳米化疗药物给药方法,包括复溶和稀释等,也可与上述现行上市药物给药方法相同。
本发明所述的治疗方法,一些实施例中,包括如下步骤:
(1)将肿瘤患者置于密闭舱体内,逐渐通入纯氧使舱体内气压升高到2-5倍大气压,维持1-4小时后,缓慢放气使舱体内气压降至大气压;
(2)舱体内气压降至大气压0-12小时后,对肿瘤患者静脉注射纳米化疗药物,注射剂量为100-300mg/m 2
(3)重复步骤(1)和步骤(2)以完成一次治疗,持续治疗不少于1次。
本发明提出的肿瘤治疗方法可以适用于各种肿瘤类型,不仅能够适用于诸如黑色素瘤、小细胞肺癌肿瘤等的非实体瘤,同样也适用于各种实体瘤,包括头颈部肿瘤、胸部肿瘤、消化系统肿瘤、泌尿生殖系统肿瘤、骨肿瘤、中枢神经系统肿瘤、软组织肿瘤、皮肤及附件肿瘤等,联合高压氧治疗能够显著提高纳米化疗药物在实体瘤部位的富集和响应率,显著抑制肿瘤生长速度。
与单用纳米化疗药物相比,本发明高压氧联合纳米化疗药物在不增加毒副作用的同时通过高压氧改善肿瘤组织乏氧,降低肿瘤组织中干细胞的占比,显著调控肿瘤血管正常化并促进纳米化疗药物在肿瘤部位的穿透和富集,提高肿瘤细胞对纳米化疗药物的摄取,增强纳米化疗药物的抗肿瘤疗效。本发明提供了一种新的抗肿瘤联合治疗方式,拓展了高压氧的新用途。

图1为流式检测4T1乳腺癌原位瘤治疗结束后各组肿瘤组织中CD133阳性的肿瘤干细胞占所有肿瘤细胞的比率。从图中可以看出,单用HBO与对照组相比,肿瘤干细胞的比率降低了57%,结果具有显著性差异。同时,HBO+Abraxane与HBO+Doxil组相比于各自的单药治疗组,肿瘤干细胞的比率分别下降了52%和94%,结果同样具有显著性差异。这个结果表明高压氧单独处理能降低肿瘤组织中干细胞的比率,而高压氧联合纳米化疗药物同样可以降低肿瘤组织中干细胞的比率。
图2为4T1乳腺癌原位瘤治疗结束后各组肿瘤组织中干细胞通过纤维蛋白凝胶筛选得到的克隆球照片。从图中可以看出,HBO以及HBO+Abraxane、HBO+Doxil组的克隆球大小均小于各自的对照组。
图3为4T1乳腺癌原位瘤治疗结束后各组肿瘤组织中干细胞通过纤维蛋白凝胶筛选得到的克隆球数量统计结果。从图中可以看出,单用HBO与对照组相比,肿瘤干细胞的数量降低了45%,结果具有显著性差异。同时,HBO+Abraxane与HBO+Doxil组相比于各自的单药治疗组,肿瘤干细胞的数量分别下降了49%和75%,结果同样具有显著性差异。这个结果表明高压氧处理可以显著降低肿瘤组织中干细胞的数量。

实施例9
基于高压氧联合纳米化疗药物对荷乳腺癌原位瘤小鼠肿瘤干细胞细胞周期的测试。
实验药物的配制:将纳米化疗药物Abraxane溶解在生理盐水中配制成2mg/mL 的溶液,将纳米化疗药物Doxil溶解在生理盐水中配制成0.8mg/mL的溶液。
建立小鼠乳腺癌4T1原位瘤模型,当肿瘤长到体积为100mm3时,随机将荷瘤小鼠分为6个组(Saline组、HBO组、Abraxane组、HBO+Abraxane组、Doxil组和HBO+Doxil组)并记为第1天,分别在第1、2、5、8、11天给予HBO组、HBO+Abraxane组和HBO+Doxil组小鼠高压氧治疗,治疗方式为,将小鼠置于密闭舱体内,逐渐通入纯氧使舱内气压升高到2.5倍大气压,维持1.5小时后,缓慢放气使舱内气压降至大气压。第2、5、8、11天在高压氧之前通过尾静脉注射给予HBO+Abraxane组小鼠0.2mg/0.1mL Abraxane,给予HBO+Doxil组小鼠0.08mg/0.1mL Doxil。并分别将生理盐水、Abraxane、Doxil以0.1mL/只、0.1mg/0.1mL、0.08mg/0.1mL剂量通过尾静脉注射到对应实验组小鼠。治疗结束后,在第11天处死小鼠,分离小鼠肿瘤组织。用剪刀将肿瘤组织剪碎后,加入胶原蛋白酶和DNA酶消化40分钟后,使用50mL注射器橡胶塞子研磨并通过70μm细胞筛网过滤得到单细胞悬液。
使用APC-CD1331流式抗体、Hoechst33342以及EDU染料与细胞悬液共孵育后流式细胞仪分析CD133阳性细胞的细胞周期及G0-G1细胞占比。
图5为4T1乳腺癌治疗结束后各组小鼠肿瘤组织中肿瘤干细胞的细胞周期分布,从图中可以看出,经过高压氧处理的三个组相比于对照组,处于S分裂期的细胞比率提高了。
图6为4T1乳腺癌治疗结束后各组小鼠肿瘤组织中肿瘤干细胞处于G0/G1周期阻滞的细胞比率。从图中可以看出HBO组、HBO+Abraxane组和HBO+Doxil组处于G0/G1期的干细胞比率相较于各自的对照组显著下降了。而处于G0/G1期的细胞由于周期阻滞,不能进入DNA的复制分裂期,因此对Abraxane和Doxil的药物杀伤不敏感,从而导致化疗耐药。这个结果表明,高压氧处理能降低处于周期阻滞的干细胞比率,增加肿瘤干细胞对纳米化疗药物的敏感性。
实施例10
基于高压氧治疗对荷乳腺癌原位瘤小鼠肿瘤血管形态影响的测试。
建立小鼠乳腺癌4T1原位瘤模型,当肿瘤长到体积为100mm 3时,随机将荷瘤小鼠分为2个组(Saline组、HBO组)并记为第1天,分别在第1、2、5、8、11天给予HBO组小鼠高压氧治疗,治疗方式为,将小鼠置于密闭舱体内,逐渐通入纯氧使舱内气压升高到2.5倍大气压,维持1.5小时后,缓慢放气使舱内气压降至大气压。第2、5、8、11天通过尾静脉注射给予Saline组小鼠0.1mL生理盐水。治疗结束后, 在第11天处死小鼠,分离小鼠肿瘤组织,多聚甲醛固定包埋切片后,通过CD31染色检测肿瘤组织中血管的形态与密度。
图7是CD31免疫荧光染色的切片拍照结果。从图中可以看出血管的形态,Saline组血管呈现弯曲增粗的形态,而HBO组的血管形态正常。
图8是对切片中血管密度的统计结果,从图中可以看出,高压氧处理会显著降低肿瘤组织中血管的密度。
图9是对切片中血管弯曲程度的统计结果,从图中可以看出,高压氧处理后血管弯曲程度显著降低,这表明HBO处理可以促进肿瘤血管正常化。
实施例11
基于高压氧治疗对荷乳腺癌原位瘤小鼠肿瘤血流灌注影响的测试。
建立小鼠乳腺癌4T1原位瘤模型,当肿瘤长到体积为1500mm 3时,通过腹腔注射1%戊巴比妥钠溶液麻醉小鼠,使用激光散斑血流成像仪检测小鼠肿瘤血管的血流灌注情况,随后给予小鼠高压氧治疗,治疗方式为,将小鼠置于密闭舱体内,逐渐通入纯氧使舱内气压升高到2.5倍大气压,维持1.5小时后,缓慢放气使舱内气压降至大气压。在治疗结束后再次麻醉小鼠并通过激光散斑血流成像仪检测小鼠肿瘤血管的血流灌注情况。
图10是小鼠高压氧前后血流灌注图。从图中可以看出,高压氧处理后小鼠肿瘤血管的血流灌注量增强了。
图11是对小鼠高压氧前后血流灌注量的定量统计结果。从图中可以看出,三只不同的小鼠在高压氧处理之后,血流灌注分别增强了7%、3.7%和2.9%。这个结果表明,高压氧处理可以提高肿瘤血管中血流灌注量。
实施例12
基于高压氧联合纳米化疗药物对荷乳腺癌原位瘤小鼠药物递送的测试。
实验药物的配制:使用Cy5-NHS酯标记Abraxane,并通过透析除去多余的Cy5分子。再将标记后的Abraxane溶解在生理盐水中配制成2mg/mL的溶液。
建立小鼠乳腺癌4T1原位瘤模型,当皮下瘤长到体积为250mm 3时,随机将荷瘤小鼠分为2个组(Abraxane组和HBO+Abraxane组)分组后记为第0小时,立即通过尾静脉注射给予Abraxane组和Abraxane组小鼠0.3mL Cy5荧光标记的Abraxane。给予HBO+Abraxane抑制剂组小鼠高压氧治疗,治疗方式为,将小鼠置于密闭舱体内,逐渐通入纯氧使舱内气压升高到2.5倍大气压,维持1.5小时后,缓慢放气使舱 内气压降至大气压。使用小动物成像系统在第0、4、8、12、16、24小时分别对小鼠进行成像,检测Abraxane在小鼠体内的分布,并在第24小时处死小鼠,分离心肝脾肺肾和肿瘤,使用小动物成像系统检测Abraxane在小鼠各组织中的分布情况。
图12为小动物成像检测到纳米化疗药物在活体小鼠体内分布随时间的变化以及离体组织中的分布情况。从图中可以看出,在第0小时,两个组小鼠均无本底荧光信号,在注射荧光标记的Abraxane之后,随时间变化,小鼠体内逐渐出现不同强弱的荧光信号,HBO联合Abraxane组小鼠肿瘤部位Abraxane的荧光信号在不同时间点均强与单用Abraxane组。

图14为小动物成像检测到Abraxane在活体小鼠肿瘤组织分布随时间的变化的定量结果。从图中可以看出,随着时间的延长,Abraxane在各组小鼠肿瘤组织中的富集逐渐增多,其中,第0到24小时为快速富集阶段,随后富集速度逐渐减慢。而在整个过程中,HBO联合Abraxane治疗组Abraxane在肿瘤部位的富集量均显著高于单用Abraxane组,HBO处理将Abraxane在肿瘤的平均富集量提高了47%左右。
图15为小动物成像检测的Abraxane组织分布定量结果。从图中可以看出,与单用Araxane组相比,联合治疗组肿瘤部位Abraxane的富集量显著增多,其余各器官富集量无显著性差异,结果表明HBO可以显著提高Abraxane在小鼠肿瘤部位的富集。

实施例14
基于高压氧联合纳米化疗药物对荷乳腺癌原位瘤小鼠抗肿瘤活性的测试。
实验药物的配制:将纳米化疗药物Abraxane溶解在生理盐水中配制成2mg/mL的溶液,将纳米化疗药物Doxil溶解在生理盐水中配制成0.8mg/mL的溶液。
建立小鼠乳腺癌4T1原位瘤模型,当肿瘤长到体积为100mm 3时,随机将荷瘤小鼠分为6个组(Saline组、HBO组、Abraxane组、HBO+Abraxane组、Doxil组和HBO+Doxil组)并记为第1天,分别在第1、2、5、8、11天给予HBO组、HBO+Abraxane组和HBO+Doxil组小鼠高压氧治疗,治疗方式为,将小鼠置于密闭舱体内,逐渐通入纯氧使舱内气压升高到2.5倍大气压,维持1.5小时后,缓慢放气使舱内气压降至大气压。第2、5、8、11天在高压氧之前通过尾静脉注射给予HBO+Abraxane组小鼠0.2mg/0.1mL Abraxane,给予HBO+Doxil抑制剂组小鼠0.08mg/0.1mL Doxil。并分别将PBS、Abraxane、Doxil以0.1mL/只、0.1mg/0.1mL、0.08mg/0.1mL剂量通过尾静脉注射到对应实验组小鼠。每两天用游标卡尺测量肿瘤的最长处(L)和最宽处(W),计算肿瘤体积V=L*W 2/2,在第23天将各组小鼠处死,剥出皮下肿瘤并称重。在检测肿瘤体积的同时,每两天测量小鼠的体重,并记录。
在实验结束时,处死小鼠,取出全血检测血细胞成分及含量,并采血分离出血清,分析其中的血生化指标,共检测谷丙转氨酶、谷草转氨酶、总尿素氮和心肌肌酸激酶四项指标。同时取出小鼠完整的肺,使用Bouin’s染液对其进行固定染色,24小时后用95%乙醇洗涤后,记录肺部肿瘤转移节结数并拍照。同时将小鼠心、肝、脾、肺、肾五种主要脏器取出,用4%多聚甲醛固定,之后进行常规石蜡包埋包埋切片、HE染色,在显微镜下观察组织结构。
图17是治疗过程中小鼠肿瘤体积增长-时间曲线,与Saline组相比,HBO组小 鼠肿瘤生长没有明显的抑制,这说明单独使用HBO治疗并没有明显的抑瘤效果。而Abraxane组和Doxil组相比于Saline组均表现出了抑制肿瘤生长的作用。HBO+Abraxane与HBO+Doxil治疗组肿瘤生长速度明显慢于单用纳米化疗药物治疗组,在第31天,HBO+Abraxane与HBO+Doxil治疗组联合治疗组小鼠平均瘤体积为1633和255mm 3,显著低于单用Abraxane和Doxil组的1949和451mm 3。以上分析表明,HBO联合纳米化疗药物可以显著增强纳米化疗药物对肿瘤生长的抑制效果。
图18为小鼠治疗结束后取出肿瘤称重的统计结果,由图18可知,Abraxane和Doxil组的肿瘤重量明显低于Saline组,同时,联合治疗组的瘤重显著低于单用纳米化疗药物治疗组,这表明HBO联合纳米化疗药物可以增强纳米化疗药物的抗肿瘤效果。
图19为以上6个组在给药期间的体重变化图,由图19可知,相比于Saline组,五个实验组小鼠体重没有明显的下降或上涨趋势,这表明单独使用HBO或Abraxane、Doxil治疗,以及联合治疗均不会影响小鼠的健康状况。
图20为各组治疗结束后血细胞检测结果。由图20可知,与Saline组相比,五个实验组小鼠在治疗结束后血液中白细胞、红细胞、血小板含量以及平均血红蛋白含量均没有明显差异,这表明单独使用HBO或纳米化疗药物治疗,以及联合治疗均具有良好的安全性。
图21为各组治疗结束后的血生化分析结果,其中谷丙转氨酶和谷草转氨酶为肝功能指标,该指标的升高代表着药物具有严重的肝脏毒性,心肌肌酸激酶为心脏功能指标,其值升高意味着心脏发生了病理变化,总尿素氮为肾脏功能指标,该指标的升高意味着肾脏功能出现问题。由图21可知,五个实验组的四项血生化指标与对照组相比都没有显著性变化,以上结果表明,单独使用HBO或纳米化疗药物治疗,以及联合治疗均不会对小鼠的主要脏器产生损伤,治疗具有良好的安全性
图22为组织切片的结构图,放大倍数为200倍。由图22可知,Saline组与五个实验组的心肝脾肺肾结构清晰,没有明显的病理改变,无出血与炎症浸润,以上结果表明,单独使用HBO或纳米化疗药物治疗,以及联合治疗均不会对小鼠的主要脏器产生损伤,具有良好的安全性。

建立小鼠胰腺癌Panc02原位瘤模型并记为第1天,一周后随机将荷瘤小鼠分为6个组(Saline组、HBO组、Abraxane组、HBO+Abraxane组、Doxil组和HBO+Doxil组)并记为第1天,分别在第1、2、5、8、11天给予HBO组、HBO+Abraxane组和HBO+Doxil组小鼠高压氧治疗,治疗方式为,将小鼠置于密闭舱体内,逐渐通入纯氧使舱内气压升高到2.5倍大气压,维持1.5小时后,缓慢放气使舱内气压降至大气压。第2、5、8、11天在高压氧之前通过尾静脉注射给予HBO+Abraxane组小鼠0.2mg/0.1mL Abraxane,给予HBO+Doxil抑制剂组小鼠0.08mg/0.1mL Doxil。并分别将PBS、Abraxane、Doxil以0.1mL/只、0.1mg/0.1mL、0.08mg/0.1mL剂量通过尾静脉注射到对应实验组小鼠。在第21天处死小鼠,剥离肿瘤并称重,取出小鼠全血检测血细胞成分及含量,并采血分离出血清,分析其中的血生化指标,共检测谷丙转氨酶、谷草转氨酶、总尿素氮和心肌肌酸激酶四项指标。同时将小鼠心、肝、脾、肺、肾五种主要脏器取出,用4%多聚甲醛固定,之后进行常规石蜡包埋切片、HE 染色,在显微镜下观察组织结构。
图24为小鼠治疗结束后取出肿瘤称重的统计结果,由图7可知,Abraxane和Doxil组的肿瘤重量明显低于Saline组,同时,联合治疗组的瘤重显著低于单用纳米化疗药物治疗组,这表明HBO联合纳米化疗药物可以增强纳米化疗药物的抗肿瘤效果。
图25为以上6个组在给药期间的体重变化图,由图25可知,相比于Saline组,五个实验组小鼠体重没有明显的下降或上涨趋势,这表明单独使用HBO或Abraxane、Doxil治疗,以及联合治疗均不会影响小鼠的健康状况。
图26为各组治疗结束后血细胞检测结果。由图26可知,与Saline组相比,五个实验组小鼠在治疗结束后血液中白细胞、红细胞、血小板含量以及平均血红蛋白含量均没有明显差异,这表明单独使用HBO或纳米化疗药物治疗,以及联合治疗均具有良好的安全性。
图27为各组治疗结束后的血生化分析结果,其中谷丙转氨酶和谷草转氨酶为肝功能指标,该指标的升高代表着药物具有严重的肝脏毒性,心肌肌酸激酶为心脏功能指标,其值升高意味着心脏发生了病理变化,总尿素氮为肾脏功能指标,该指标的升高意味着肾脏功能出现问题。由图27可知,五个实验组的四项血生化指标与对照组相比都没有显著性变化,以上结果表明,单独使用HBO或纳米化疗药物治疗,以及联合治疗均不会对小鼠的主要脏器产生损伤,治疗具有良好的安全性
图28为组织切片的结构图,放大倍数为200倍。由图28可知,Saline组与五个实验组的心肝脾肺肾结构清晰,没有明显的病理改变,无出血与炎症浸润,以上结果表明,单独使用HBO或纳米化疗药物治疗,以及联合治疗均不会对小鼠的主要脏器产生损伤,具有良好的安全性。
