The equilibrium constants of the aggregation of the metal porphyrin and the equilibrium constant of the π\|π coordination with phenothoroline have been measured by using UV\|Vis titration method. The results show that the equilibrium constants decrease in the order of K \-\{CuP\}> K \-\{NiP\}> K \-\{ZnP\}. The vitro anti\|tumor activities of the dibutyltin(Ⅳ) metal porphyrinate has some relation with the ability of aggregation and coordination with ligand of the metal porphyrin.展开更多

Its chemical structure was determined by spectroscopic methods as hexadecanyl 1 O β D arabinopyranosyloxy (1→4) [ β D arabinopyranosyloxy(1→4)] β D arabinopyranoside. Cervicoside(1) exhibited cytotoxicity against human SKMG 4, Hep G2 and CNE2 cell in vitro.展开更多

Compared with the LAK activity induced by rhuIL-2, the cytotoxicity of the killer cells induced by rhuIL-4 to K562 and Raji cells was lower, but that to TBL-E, a human lymphoid leukernia cell line established in our laboratory, and PHA-activated blast cells (PHA-blasts) was of similar magnitude. In the cytotoxicity assay using PHA-blasts, the addition of PHA increased the IL-4-induced killer cell cytotoxicity by 131%, but had no effect on IL-2-induced killer cell cytotoxicity. This implies that IL-4 mainly induces CTL-like activity, while IL-2 mainly induces NK-like activity. An experimental human tumor model in nude mice was established by injection of TBL-E human leukemia cells. The anti-tumor activity of rhuIL-4 was evaluated by injection of human LAK cells induced from PHA-blasts by rhuIL-2+rhuIL-4 and human cytokines into tumor-bearing nude mice. The results showed that human LAK cells effectively inhibit the tumorigenicity of TBL-E cells in nude mice with an inhibition rate of 61 %. The antitumor effect of rhuIL-2 was better than that of rIL-4, and the antitumor effect of rhuIL-2+rhuIL-4 was similar to that of rhuIL-2, though the former delayed the occurence of tumors. Our data imply the potential application of human IL-4 in clinic, and provide an animal model to evaluate the anti-tumor activity of human cytokine(s) with species specificity.展开更多
