Title: [Inhibition of river clam extract LX01 on human lung epithelial carcinoma cell line A549]. Author: Wang SG, Li L. Journal: Di Yi Jun Yi Da Xue Xue Bao; 2004 Aug; 24(8):917-20. PubMed ID: 15321761. Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To explore the inhibition effect of river clam extract LX01 on human lung epithelial carcinoma (A549) in mice. METHODS: The inhibition ratio of LX01 on A549 was detected by MTT method. A549 was inoculated into BALB/c mice, and 2 days later, LX01 (50, 100, 200 mg/kg.d) or cytoxan (0.02 mg/kg.d) were administrated for 15 days. Tumor weight, survival time and leukocyte count were measured. RESULTS: Tumor growth was markedly inhibited by LX01 in a dose- dependent manner. LX01 could significantly extend the survival time compared with the control group (P<0.01), but LX01 did not reduce leukocyte count of mice transplanted with A549. CONCLUSION: LX01 could efficiently inhibit the growth of A549 transplanted into mice and maintain the normal immunological function.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
