Objective: To observe the inhibiting tumor effect of moxibustion serum on the tumor-bearing mice Methods: The mice were transplanted with C57BL/6 mouse thymus cells to form solid tumor and were intraperitoneally injected with moxibustion serum. The tumor growth and survival time of tumor-bearing mice were recorded. Results: The moxibustion serum could significantly postpone the formation of tumor nodules. Compared with the tumor-bearing group, tumor nodules formation time of all treatment groups was delayed and the survival time of the tumor-bearing mice was prolonged. Besides, the inhibiting tumor effect of moxibustion serum in the pre-treatment group was better than that in the moxibustion serum treatment group. Moxibustion acts specifically on acupoints. Conclusion: The moxibustion serum had obvious anti-tumor effects.
Observe the effect of Moxibustion Serum(MS) on phenotypes of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes(TIL). METHOD To culture the TIL with MS, to examine the result by the way of Flow Cytometry. RESULT The result showed that MS could assist recombinant interlenkin 2(IL 2) to enhance successively the percentage of CD 3 positive T cells,maintain the number of CD 4 positive T cells,greatly promote the percentage of CD 8 positive T cells among TILs. Such cooperative effect inclined to selective acupoints specificity. CONCLUSION MS is beneficial to the growth of TIL in aspects of phenotypes.
