AIM: To study effects of recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) on growth of a human gastric carcinoma cell in vivo.METHODS: Experimental mice were divided into control group, rhGH group, oxaliplatin (L-OHP) group and rhGH+L-OHP group. Cultured human gastric carcinoma cells BGC823 were inoculated into right axilla of nude mice and carcinoma xenograft model wasestablished successfully. Inhibitory rate of xenograft tumor growth was estimated by measuring tumor volume; expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), Bax and Bcl-2 proteins of xenograft tumor was detected using immunohistochemical S-P method.RESULTS: Tumor growth inhibitory rate, the positive expression rate of PCNA, Bax and Bcl-2 were 49.3％,58.2％, 65.2％ and 59.2％ in rhGH+L-OHP group respectively; 46.6％, 62.5％, 59.7％ and 64.7％ in L-OHP group; 5.0％, 82.7％, 23.2％ and 82.2％ in rhGH group and 0, 77.8％, 23.5％ and 80.3％ in control group. There was significant difference between rhGH+L-OHP group (or L-OHP group ) and control group or rhGH group (P ＜0.05), whereas there were no significant differences (P ＞0.05) between L-OHP group and rhGH+L-OHP group and between rhGH group and control group.CONCLUSION: rhGH does not accelerate the proliferation of human gastric cancer cell in vivo.
