To investigate anti-tumor effect of Modified Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction and its impact on VEGF. Methods:Adult male mice (n=100), inoculated with H22 hepatoma cells, were randomized to 10 groups and administered saline, capecitabine, Modified Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction (high, medium and low dose). Tumor inhibition rate, life extension rate and the expression of VEGF in tumors were detected on Day11. Results:Tumor inhibition rate of Capecitabine and Modified Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction at high, medium and low dose were 60%, 49%, 41%, 35%, life extension rate: 1.68% 157.98%, 70.58%, 49.57%. Conclusion:Modified Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction can inhibit tumor cell proliferation in tumor bearing mice, significantly prolong the survival time of mice, and reduce expression of VEGF in the tumor tissue. |
