Prostate cancer (PrCa) is the most common male cancer in Western countries
.
Radiotherapy (RT) is the main treatment for all stages of prostate cancer, but prostate tumors are resistant to this treatment
Anti- diabetic drugs metformin (MET) and aspirin metabolite salicylate (SAL) can activate AMP protein kinase (AMPK) and inhibit adipogenesis (DNL) and mammalian rapamycin (mTOR) pathways, and can reduce in vitro Proliferation of PrCa
.
Recently, researchers from Canada published an article in "Transl Oncol", investigating whether MET+SAL treatment can enhance PrCa tumor suppression and improve the response to RT
.
Investigate whether MET+SAL treatment can enhance the PrCa tumor suppression effect and improve the response to RT.
The researchers used androgen-sensitive (22RV1) and resistant (PC3, DU-145) PrCa cells and PC3 xenografts to investigate whether MET+SAL treatment is better than MET or SAL alone in inhibiting PrCa cells and Tumor activity
.
The mechanism of action was investigated by analyzing signal pathways, mitochondrial respiration and DNL activity determination
It was found that PrCa cells are resistant to clinical doses of MET
.
MET+SAL treatment can produce synergistic anti-proliferative activity at clinical doses and enhance the anti-proliferative effect of RT
Metformin + salicylic acid can inhibit tumor growth and DNA replication
Metformin + salicylic acid can inhibit tumor growth and DNA replicationIn summary, MET+SAL treatment can inhibit the proliferation of PrCa cells and tumor growth, and enhance the response to RT at clinical doses
.
MET and SAL are widely used safely and cheaply.
