Stable deceleration of Walker 256 tumor growth was detected in Brattleboro rats with vasopressin synthesis defect in comparison with normal WAG rats. In contrast to continuous tumor growth typical of rats, the growth of this tumor in Brattleboro rats was negligible and was observed during the first 15-18 days after transplantation, after which the tumor regressed and disappeared. The effect was age-dependent and was more pronounced in old animals. Repeated injection of Walker 256 cells does not lead to tumor development, which attested to direct involvement of the immune system in the detected phenomenon.

While low-dose cannabinoid 2 (CB2) receptor agonists attenuate morphine tolerance in cancer pain models, chemokine ligand 12 (CXCL12)/chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) expression induces morphine tolerance. Whether CB2 receptor agonists attenuate morphine tolerance by modulating CXCL12/CXCR4 signaling or whether CXCL12/CXCR4 signaling affects the mu opioid receptor (MOR) in the development of morphine tolerance in cancer pain remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the attenuation of morphine tolerance by a non-analgesic dose of the CB2 receptor agonist AM1241, focusing specifically on the modulation of CXCL12/CXCR4 signaling and its effect on the MOR.

: this study investigates the efficacy, immunological impact, and preliminary safety of methotrexate (MTX) modified magnetic FeO nanoparticles in thermochemotherapy for mammary tumors in rats. : transmission electron microscopy images revealed that the MTX-modified magnetic FeO nanoparticles are nearly spherical, approximately 10 nm in diameter. Chemically co-precipitated PEI-modified magnetic nanoparticles were utilized for thermotherapy, while MTX-modified nanoparticles were employed for thermochemotherapy.

Patients with advanced-stage cancers often suffer from severe pain caused by bone metastasis and destruction, for which effective treatment options are limited. Liu-Shen-Wan (LSW) is a widely recognized herbal formula utilized for pain relief. This study aims to elucidate the effects of LSW on bone cancer pain (BCP).

Bone cancer pain remains a significant clinical challenge, often refractory to conventional treatments. The upregulation of the P2X3 receptor in the dorsal root ganglia has been implicated in the pathogenesis of bone cancer pain. This study aimed to elucidate the role of the P2X3 receptor in this context and assess the therapeutic potential of receptor silencing.
