The current treatment options for BC are limited, which necessitates the development of alternative treatment strategies. Hyperthermia (HT), as an adjuvant cancer therapy, is known to improve the efficacy of chemotherapy or radiotherapy. The present study aimed to investigate the anti‑tumor effects of HT on cell survival, invasiveness, chemoresistance and immune evasion in human BC cell lines (5637, T24 and UMUC3). Calcein AM staining was performed to analyze the cytotoxicity of natural killer (NK) cells against human BC cells following HT treatment. Cell migration and invasion affected by HT were analyzed using Transwell migration and invasion assays. It was found that HT inhibited the proliferation of BC cells by downregulating the phosphorylation of protein kinase B. Moreover, HT effectively enhanced the sensitivity of BC cells to the chemotherapy drug cisplatin (DDP) and reduced the chemoresistance of DDP‑resistant cells by downregulating the expression of cadherin‑11. It was further demonstrated that HT inhibited the migration and invasion of BC cells and enhanced the cytotoxic effects of NK cells. In summary, the antineoplastic effects of HT were mediated through three main mechanisms: Enhancement of the chemosensitivity of BC cells and mitigation of DDP‑induced chemoresistance, suppression of the invasive potential of BC cells and reinforcement of the anticancer response of NK cells. Thus, HT appears to be a promising adjunctive therapy for human BC.</p>","PeriodicalId":14175,"journal":{"name":"International journal of oncology","volume":"65 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11575926/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142602089","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Adjuvants are agents used alongside primary treatments to enhance their efficacy and the treatment outcomes of patients. Modern lifestyles contribute to deficiencies in melatonin and vitamin D. Limited sun exposure affects vitamin D synthesis, and artificial light at night suppresses melatonin production. Both melatonin and vitamin D possess anti‑inflammatory, immune‑boosting and anticancer properties, rendering them potential adjuvants of interest. Studies suggest melatonin and vitamin D supplementation may address antioxidant imbalances in lip, oral and pharyngeal cancers. Moreover, promising results from breast, head and neck, brain, and osteosarcoma research indicate potential for tumor growth inhibition, improved survival, and a better quality of life of patients with cancer. The radioprotective properties of melatonin and vitamin D are another exciting area of exploration, potentially enhancing radiotherapy effectiveness while reducing side effects. For its part, the sleep‑promoting effects of melatonin may indirectly benefit patients with cancer by influencing the immune system. Thus, the prevalence of vitamin D and melatonin deficiencies highlights the importance of supplementation, as lower levels can worsen side‑effects from cancer treatments. The present review explores the potential of combining melatonin and vitamin D as synergistic adjuvants for cancer therapy.

In the present study, the impact of cinobufagin (CB) on macrophage polarization and the consequences on tumor‑associated behaviors were investigated. Morphological transformations of THP‑1 cells into M0, M1 and M2 macrophages were observed, including distinct changes in the size, shape and adherence properties of these cells. CB treatment inhibited the viability of A549 and LLC cells in a concentration‑dependent manner, with an IC<sub>50</sub> of 28.8 and 30.12 ng/ml, respectively. CB at concentrations of <30 ng/ml had no impact on the viability of M0 macrophages and lung epithelial (BEAS‑2B) cells. CB influenced the expression of macrophage surface markers, reducing CD206 positivity in M2 macrophages without affecting CD86 expression in M1 macrophages. CB also altered certain expression profiles at the mRNA level, notably downregulating macrophage receptor with collagenous structure (MARCO) expression in M2 macrophages and upregulating tumor necrosis factor‑α and interleukin‑1β in both M0 and M1 macrophages. Furthermore, ELISA analyses revealed that CB increased the levels of pro‑inflammatory cytokines in M1 macrophages and reduced the levels of anti‑inflammatory factors in M2 macrophages. CB treatment also attenuated the migration and invasion capacities of A549 and LLC cells stimulated by M2 macrophage‑conditioned medium. Additionally, CB modulated peroxisome proliferator‑activated receptor γ (PPARγ) and MARCO expression in M2 macrophages and epithelial‑mesenchymal transition in A549 cells, which was partially reversed by rosiglitazone, a PPARγ agonist. Finally, CB and cisplatin treatments hindered tumor growth <i>in vivo</i>, with distinct impacts on animal body weight and macrophage marker expression in tumor tissues. In conclusion, the results of the present study demonstrated that CB exerted complex regulatory effects on macrophage polarization and tumor progression, suggesting its potential as a modulator of the tumor microenvironment and a therapeutic for cancer treatment.</p>","PeriodicalId":14175,"journal":{"name":"International journal of oncology","volume":"65 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11419410/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142287174","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
