Abstract:Objective To investigate the “time window” of Endostar (recombinant human endostatin) normalization of tumor vasculature in nude mouse model of orthotopic cisplatin (DDP)-resistant human ovarian cancer. Methods Methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay was used to determine the DDP resistance of SKOV3-DDP (DDP-resistant human ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma) cells, which were then used to establish orthotopic tumor model in nude mice. A total of 30 mice were randomly divided into 6 groups with 5 mice in each group. Among them, 3 groups were injected daily with 0.2 mL Endostar (10 mg/kg) intraperitoneally (i.p.) and sacrificed respectively 3, 6, and 9 days after the injection; the other 3 control groups were i.p. injected daily with 0.2 mL saline and sacrificed respectively 3, 6, and 9 days after the injection. The integrity of tumor vascular endothelial cells at different time points after Endostar treatment was measured by immunofluorescent staining of CD31. Results The tumor vasculatures in saline control groups were irregular and tortuous, with varied diameter and multiple branches, the vast majority of which were covered with incomplete endothelial cells. However, 3 and 9 days of Endostar administration improved the vascular integrity (23±4.6% and 17.7±8.3%, P>0.05) and reduced the number of vascular branches. In particular, the tumor vasculatures in mice treated with Endostar for 6 days showed complete vascular wall, uniform diameter, and significantly improved integrity (75.3±8.0%, P<0.01 vs. 3 and 9 days respectively). Conclusion Endostar treatment produced a short “time window” of normalization in tumor vasculature, which may provide an experimental basis for combination therapy
