The effect of iv injection in C57BL/6 mice of 3X10(7) bone marrow cells preincubated in either thymosin fraction V or thymosin alpha-1 was evaluated on the growth of a 3-methylcholanthrene-induced transplantable tumor in a syngeneic system. The effect was then compared to that elicited by theophylline or levamisole, which both demonstrated thymosin-like action in vitro. The results showed significantly retarded tumor growth (P less than 0.001) and prolonged survival time (P less than 0.001) when thymosin fraction V was used. The same results were obtained with thymosin alpha-1 with use of the same protocol but only one-twentieth of the concentration of fraction V. Theophylline and levamisole demonstrated no antitumor effect.
评估在C57BL/6小鼠中静脉注射预先在胸腺素组分V或胸腺素α-1中孵育的3×10⁷个骨髓细胞,对同基因系统中3-甲基胆蒽诱导的可移植肿瘤生长的影响。然后将该效果与茶碱或左旋咪唑所引发的效果进行比较,茶碱和左旋咪唑在体外均表现出胸腺素样作用。结果显示,当使用胸腺素组分V时,肿瘤生长显著迟缓(P<0.001)且存活时间延长(P<0.001)。使用相同方案,但仅为组分V浓度的二十分之一的胸腺素α-1也得到了相同结果。茶碱和左旋咪唑未显示出抗肿瘤作用。
