This study was designed to investigate the effect on tumor growth inhibition activity of lizards (Gekkoswinhonis Guenther) with different extent of broiling. Samples were prepared by a traditional drying method combined with broiling on clay tiles. Four groups of samples were all dried before broiling. Group A was without broiling; group B was mildly broiled; group C was moderately broiled; and group D was heavily broiled. Crispiness was detected by the sizes of the generated fragments of different groups and crispiness increased with broiling. Sensory evaluation of vision and olfaction was performed, and scores were generated by evaluators. Moderately broiled group had the highest total score in sensory evaluation. Water content and content of water-soluble extracts were detected according to Chinese Pharmacopoeia. With the increasing broiling extent, content of water-soluble extracts increased while water content decreased. Soluble protein concentration was detected by bicinchoninic acid (BCA) kit and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) with the same crude drug content. Soluble protein concentration decreased with the increasing broiling extent. With equal loading of proteins at the same concentration, soluble protein diversity was detected by SDS-PAGE. Band difference was marked by red boxes. Soluble protein molecule weights showed significant difference with the increasing broiling extent. H₂₂ tumor-bearing mice model was established and used to detect tumor growth inhibition rate and immune organ index. Life quality of mice was evaluated. Mice treated with Gekkoswinhonis Guenther had better appetites and higher average weights compared with positive control group treated with fluorouracil (5-FU). Animal experiments were approved by the Ethics Committee of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine. Group A had the highest tumor growth inhibition rate (34.11%), followed by Group B (29.14%) and Group D (28.43%), Group C (21.98%) had the lowest tumor growth inhibition rate, but sensory evaluation was on the contrary. These results indicated that moderately broiling improved sensory evaluation but reduced the tumor growth inhibition activity of Gekkoswinhonis Guenther. The best tumor growth inhibition activity appeared when water content was 7.71%.
