摘 要:AIM: To investigate the effects of oral Lactococcus lactis (L lactis) containing endostatin on 1, 2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH)-induced rat colorectal cancer. METHODS: Recombinant endostatin was produced by the expression of L lactis NZ9000. Sixty male Wistar rats were injected with DMH (40 mg/kg body weight) subcutaneously once a week for 10 wk to induce colorectal cancer. The rats were gavaged with 1 mL of endostatin at a dose of 1×10^8/d and fed with the basal diet. The animals were killed after 22 wk for histopathological examination. The total time of experimental observation was 58 wk. RESULTS: Rat endostatin protein was expressed in L lactis. Recombinant endostatin exhibited a significant effect on colorectal cancer (P〈0.05). Furthermore, the mean survival time of the rats treated with endostatin was longer than that of the animals treated with DMH. There was no statistically significant difference between the rats treated with endostatin and those treated with DMH. The results showed that endostatin could not result in complete cure. CONCLUSION: Oral endostatin exerts an influence on the progression of chemically induced colon tumors.
