Abstract: Object:To study the antitumor and immune activity of SPG-1 on H22 tumor mice.Methods:Sweet potato glycoprotein(SPG-1)was extracted from the cultivar Guangdong 98.The kunming H22 fumor mice were given SPG-1 by intragastrical injection(i.g.)then the inhibiting rate of tumor growth,life prolongation rate,katyokinesis index of tumor cells,spleen index,thymus index and the activity on macrophage of celiac plexus were studied.Results:SPG-1 can significantly inhibit the tumor growth(p<0.05)on H22 entity-tumor mice,significantly prolong life(p<0.05)on H22 bearing-tumor mice.SPG-1 can obviously inhibit karyokinesis of tumor cells(p<0.01)on H22 bearing-tumor mice,and notably enhanced the spleen index(p<0.01),the thymus index(p<0.05 )and the activity on macrophage of celiac plexus(p<0.01)on H22 entity-tumor mice. Conclusion:SPG-1 has anti-tumor and immune function on H22 tumor mice.
