`
`bations were performed under the same conditions except as otherwise
`noted. Meth-A cells were passaged i.p. in mice.
`Observation of Tumor Vasculature. Observations were made under a
`stereoscopic microscope, through a sight glass consisting of two stain-
`less steel plates (1 1), one containing a drilled hole 13 mm in diameter
`which was covered by a clear glass plate affixed to the outside surface.
`On day 0, the sight glass was affixed with surgical thread to a raised
`portion of the dorsum as shown in Fig. l with an excised dermal area
`facing the drilled hole, and Meth-A cells (1 x 10‘ cells/0.1 ml Eagle's
`MEM) were then injected into the region under the drilled hole. On
`day 9, TNF (l x 10‘ units/0.1 ml 0.1% gelatin-phosphate buffered
`saline, pH 7.4) or the TNF diluent as control was administered i.v.,
`and the tumor vasculature under the sight glass was observed 1, 2, 4,
`6, and 24 h later with the mouse under secobarbital anesthesia (0.6 mg,
`i.p.; Yoshitomi Pharmaceutical). Prophylactic penicillin (0.8 mg; Toy-
`ama Chemical Industry Co.) was administered on days 0, 1, 2, 4, and
`6.
`
`Evaluation of Antimmor Effect. Meth-A cells (1 x 10‘ cells/0.1 ml
`Eagle’s MEM) were injected i.d. in each mouse on day 0, and on day 6
`TNF (l x 10’-1 X 10‘ units/0.1 ml) was administered iv. with or
`without prior injection of heparin (3 units/0.1 ml) via the caudal vein.
`Control mice each received TNF diluent (0.1% gelatin-phosphate buff-
`ered saline, pH 7.4, 0.1 ml) instead of TNF. Tumor weight was
`estimated from measurements on days 6 and 8 of the minor (a) and
`major (b) axes, as a2 X b/2. Necrotic response was graded on day 8 as
`+++ (necrosis over entire tumor), ++ (necrosis over 50% or more of
`tumor), + (necrosis over less than 50% of tumor), and —- (no apparent
`necrosis). Occurrence of complete cure was judged on day 97. Tumor
`sections were obtained from 8 mice 4 h after TNF administration with
`and without heparin and periodically thereafter, embedded in paraffin,
`and subjected to histological examination by optical microscope after
`hematoxylin and eosin staining.
`Cytotoxic Assay. One hundred ul of CPAE or L—M cells (1 x 10’
`cells/ml) and 100 pl of TNF at various concentrations were added to
`the wells of a 96-well microculture plate and incubated for 48 h.
`Cytotoxicity was then assessed by dye uptake method (12-14).
`
`RESULTS
`
`ABSTRACT
`
`Stereoscopic observation via an implanted swat glass in mice bearing
`transplanted methylcholanthrene-induced A-cells showed tumorivascular
`hemorrhage at 1—2 h after tumor necrosis factor (TNF) administration,
`congestion at 4-6 h, and hemorrhage, congestion, and blood circulation
`blockage at 24 h.
`Histological examination after TNF administration to mice bearing
`similar methylcholanethrene-induced A-cell transplants showed throm-
`bus formation in the tumor vasculature at 4 h and thereafter. Suppression
`of this thrombus formation with heparin had no apparent influence on
`the necrotic response, tumor growth inhibition or complete cure rate
`following TNF administration to mice bearing the methylcholanethrene-
`induced A-cell tumors. The results suggest that direct toxicity of TNF
`on tumor vasculature is a factor in the overall antitumor mechanism of
`TNF.
`
`INTRODUCTION
`
`TNF' is an anticancer cytokine derived from monocytes and
`macrophages (l-3) and is known to exert a strong antitumori-
`genic effect against tumor cells both in vivo (1, 4) and in vitro
`(5). Its direct effect on tumor cells has been demonstrated in
`vitra and undoubtedly plays a part in its antitumor effect. Many
`aspects of the overall antitumor mechanism nevertheless remain
`unclear. One of these is the possible involvement of reactions
`affecting the tumor blood vessels, which is suggested by the
`hemorrhagic necrosis which is usually observed in the course
`of transplanted tumor regression following administration of
`TNF in mice (1). In vitro studies have provided evidence of
`such reactions. TNF reportedly exerts a cytotoxic effect on
`endothelial cells from bovine arteries (6) and human umbilical
`veins (7), and promotes thrombus formation by acting on
`vascular endothelial cells and stimulating production of a pro-
`coagulant factor (8, 9). No direct evidence of their (6-9) occur-
`rence in vivo has yet been reported.
`The present study is a more direct investigation of the effect
`of TNF on tumor vasculature. To allow visual observation of
`changes in the tumor vasculature under the influence of TNF,
`we implanted a sight glass in mice before their inoculation with
`Meth-A cells. We also investigated the influence of thrombus
`suppression with heparin on the antitumor effect of TNF.
`
`MATERIALS AND METHODS
`
`Materials. Human recombinant TNF (2.37 x 10‘ units/mg protein)
`(10) was provided by Asahi Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. Heparin
`(Midori Juji, Osaka, Japan) was used as anticoagulant. BALD/c mice
`(female, 5 weeks of age; Clea Japan Co., Ltd.) were used.
`Cell (hilture. CPAE cells (bovine endothelial cells of the pulmonary
`artery, L—M cells (mouse tumorigenic fibroblast) and Meth-A cells
`(mouse fibrosarcoma) were used. CPEA and L-M cells were maintained
`in Eagle’s MEM (Nissui Pharmaceutical) containing 10% fetal bovine
`serum (Flow Laboratories) in a 5% CO; incubator at 37'C. All incu-

`
`Effect of TNF on Tumor Vasculature. Stereomicroscopic ob-
`servation of the newly formed blood vessels of the Meth-A
`tumor under the sight glass showed hemorrhage from capillary
`vessels at l and 2 h after TNF administration, both hemorrhage
`from capillary vessels and congestion of nutrient vessels at 4
`and 6 h, and congestion of entire vasculature and complete loss
`of blood circulation due to blocking at 24 h (Fig. 2). None of
`these effects was observed in the control group. Histological
`examination of the Meth-A tumors resected from mice 4 h after
`administration of TNF revealed extensive thrombus formation
`in the tumor vessels of those receiving TNF alone (Fig. 3c,
`arrow), but none in those receiving both TNF and heparin (Fig.
`3d).
`Influence of Thrombus Suppression on TNF Antitumor Effect.
`Despite the histologically observed suppression of thrombus
`formation by heparin in combination with TNF, no significant
`difference in Meth-A tumor growth inhibition, necrotic re-
`sponse, or complete cure rate was observed between the mice
`given TNF alone and those given both TNF and heparin (Table
`l).

`DISCUSSION
`
`Various reports have suggested that reactions affecting the
`tumor vasculature may be involved in the overall antitumor
`mechanism of TNF, in addition to its proven direct cytotoxicity
`against tumor cells and activities mediated by neutrophils (15)
`or macrophages (16). This is based on observation of cytotoxic
`effects by TNF on vascular endothelial cells derived from bovine
`aorta (6) and from human umbilical cord (7). In the present
`study with CPAE cells, a cytotoxic effect was similarly observed.
`The effect was dose dependent in the range of 1-1 x 10’
`units/ml. The level of cytotoxicity against these cells was never-
`theless much lower than that against various tumor cell lines
`as shown by the ID“. of 1.6 x 10‘ units/ml in the 48-h assay.
`The observation of in vitro cytotoxicity against vascular cells,
`however, does not necessarily imply significant alteration of
`tumor blood vessels by TNF. As shown in Fig. 6, the clearance
`of TNF from the blood is relatively rapid. In this experiment,
`the TNF blood level 30 min after i.v. administration of 1 x 10‘
`units/mouse was 4485 units/ml, and the concentration half-life
