| Research Abstract |
Purpose : To evaluate changes in tumor microvessels after administration of anticancer drugs and angiogenesis inhibitor using synchrotron radiation in vivo.
Material and Methods : 1.Anticancer drugs : VX2 carcinomas were transplanted into the auricles of 40 rabbits and three days later the rabbits were divided into two groups ; a group given anticancer drugs by intraarterial injection(IA) and a group given anticancer drugs by drip infusion(DIV). The two groups were administrated Cisplatin, Carboplatin, Docetaxel hydrate and Adriamycin. Five untreated VX2 carcinomas served as control group. 2.Angiogenesis inhibitor : The FR-118487 agent was continuously infused subcutaneously to 30 rabbits with VX2 carcinoma implantation at auricles. The rabbits were divided into six groups : control-3 and control-7 received only propylene glycol for three or seven days, FR-1-3 and FR-1-7 received 1mg/day/kg of FR-118487 for three or seven days, FR-3-3 and FR-3-7 received 3mg/day/kg of FR-118487 for thre

e or seven days. Microangiograms of VX2 carcinomas were obtained with a synchrotron radiation system.
Results : 1.Anticancer drugs : In the control group, the number of tumor microvessels remained stationary. In the IA group, the number of tumor microvessels had decreased after 5 min. In the DIV group, the number of tumor microvessels had decreased after 15 min. Changes in microvessels of approximately 50 to 200μm in diameter. 2.Angiogenesis inhibitor : The control-3 group shows as a hypervascular lesion. In the control-7 group, the hypovascular area on the microangiogram has increased. In the FR group, In the FR-x-3 group, there were a fewer observed irregular vessels than control-3 group. In the FR-x-7group shows many irregular vessels and arteriovenous shunts presented within the tumors. These findings were similar to the control-3 group.
Conclusion : The synchrotron radiation system may be a useful tool for changes in tumor microvessels after administration of anticancer drugs and angiogenesis inhibitor. Less
