| 名称 | Tacrolimus |
| 描述 | Tacrolimus (Fujimycin) is a macrolide antibiotic that binds to FKBP12 to form a high-affinity complex (Ki=0.2 nM) that inhibits calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein phosphatase activity. Tacrolimus is an immunosuppressant that inhibits the overall suppression of T-lymphocytes by inhibiting the release of IL-2. |
| 细胞实验 | Tumor cell proliferation was determined by the MTT. Briefly, after MH3924A cells had reached the logarithmic growth phase, a 0.2-ml cell suspension at 1×10^4 cells/ml was added into each well of a 96-well plate and cultured in DMEM with 10% FBS, 10 μg/l vascular endothelial growth factor and 0.1 g/l heparin for 24 h. When adherent growth was established, different concentrations of FK506 (10, 100 and 1,000 μg/l), AMD3100 (10, 50 and 100 μg/l) and FK506 (0 and 100 μg/l) + AMD3100 (0, 10, 50 and 100 μg/l) were added into the plates. Untreated cells cultured in medium alone were used as controls. After culturing for 48 h, 10 μl MTT (5 g/l) was added, and each well was incubated for 6 h; next, 150 μl/well dimethyl sulfoxide was added, followed by measurements of the absorbance at 570 mm on a spectrophotometer reader. Each well was measured three times, and each sample was assayed in triplicate [2]. |
| 动物实验 | Experiments were performed in 16 healthy August Copenhagen Irish rats (male, 16–20 weeks, weighing 240–300 g). The rat model of liver tumor was established as follows: First, MH3924A cells were collected and injected into the alar skin of rats. The tumors were removed from alar skin when grown to 2×1×1 mm3, and intrahepatic tumor implantation of rats was performed under aseptic conditions as described previously (25,26). Five days later, rats were randomly divided into two groups: one group was subcutaneously injected with normal saline for 14 days (NS group, n=8, 3 mg/kg/day), and the second group was subcutaneously injected with FK506 for 14 days (FK506 group, n=8, 0.3 mg/kg/day). Forty days following implantation, rats were sacrificed, and the weight of tumor, the volume of the fluid in the ascites, the incidence of lymphatic metastasis in the abdominal cavity and of abdominal wall metastasis were measured. In addition, the lungs were irrigated with 15% Indian ink, followed by counting of the number of metastatic nodules in the lung. The tumor and adjacent tissues, as well as healthy liver tissues, were harvested and preserved in 4% formalin for later use [2]. |
| 体外活性 | 方法：大鼠肝癌细胞 MH3924A 用 Tacrolimus (10-1000 µg/L) 处理 48 h，使用 MTT assay 检测细胞活力。
结果：用低浓度 Tacrolimus (10 µg/L) 处理对 MH3924A 细胞的增殖没有显著影响。在用更高浓度的 Tacrolimus (100-1000 µg/L) 处理后，MH3924A 细胞的增殖显著增强。[1]
方法：人肾上皮细胞 HK-2 用 Tacrolimus (1-20 µM) 处理 48 h，使用 resazurin reduction assay 测定细胞活力。
结果：12 µM Tacrolimus 不会导致 resazurin 转化率的显著变化，而 14-20 µM Tacrolimus 导致 resazulin-reduction 的统计学显著降低，表明 Tacrolimus 处理后 HK-2 细胞的活力降低。[2] |
| 体内活性 | 方法：为测试体内免疫抑制活性，将 Tacrolimus (4 mg/kg in Cremaphor) 腹腔注射给酒精/四氯化碳诱导的大鼠肝纤维化模型，每天一次，持续四周。
结果：Tacrolimus 完全阻止了酒精/四氯化碳诱导的大鼠肝纤维化的发展。Tacrolimus 处理的肝脏中没有肝星状细胞的激活，胶原 α2（I）mRNA 的表达处于正常水平。[3] |
