Abstract:

Purpose:
To investigate the effects of dalteparin sodium on the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), VEGF receptor (VEGFR), and hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) in A549 human lung cancer (LC) cell line and a human A549-grafted nude mouse model.
Materials and methods:
A549 human lung adenocarcinoma cell line was divided into control group, treated using normal saline (NS); and dalteparin sodium groups, receiving 5, 15, 50, and 150 IU/ml of dalteparin sodium, respectively. Human A549-grafted nude mouse was induced through subcutaneous (SC) injection of A549 (5 × 106/0.2 ml) into the right armpit, and randomly assigned into control group (n = 6) receiving intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of NS, cisplatin (DDP) group (n = 6, 3 mg/kg DDP alone, i.p., for 3 days), low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) group (n = 6) receiving SC injection of 1500 IU/kg dalteparin sodium for 35 days, and DDP plus LMWH group (n = 6, 3 mg/kg DDP, i.p., for 3 days, followed by SC injection of 1500 IU/kg dalteparin sodium for 35 days).
Results:
Significant difference was noted in the messenger RNA expression of VEGF, VEGFR, and HIF-1α after treating with heparin with a concentration of 15, 50, or 150 IU/ml in the A549 cell line at 24 and 48 h, respectively. In the human A549-grafted nude mouse model, a significant reduction was noted in the expression of VEGF, VEGFR, and HIF-1α in the tumor mass harvested from the mice receiving administration of dalteparin sodium plus DDP.
Conclusion:
Dalteparin sodium had the inhibitory effects on the growth of human LC A549 cells in vitro and A549 LC xenograft model, which could be enhanced when administrated together with DDP.
