シンガポール国立大学(NUS)のフランコ=オブレゴン准教授率いる研究チームは、短時間の弱いパルス電磁場を利用して筋肉を刺激し、抗がん性を持つタンパク質を生成・放出させる新しい方法を開発しました。この方法は、運動の抗がん効果を模倣しており、運動が困難ながん患者にも同様の効果をもたらします。研究チームは、磁気療法が乳がん細胞の成長、浸潤、移動を抑制することを確認し、HTRA1というタンパク質がその抗がん効果の中心であることを発見しました。現在、臨床試験を計画しています。

Abstract

Briefly (10 min) exposing C2C12 myotubes to low amplitude (1.5 mT) pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMFs) generated a conditioned media (pCM) that was capable of mitigating breast cancer cell growth, migration, and invasiveness in vitro, whereas the conditioned media harvested from unexposed myotubes, representing constitutively released secretome (cCM), was less effective. Administering pCM to breast cancer microtumors engrafted onto the chorioallantoic membrane of chicken eggs reduced tumor volume and vascularity. Blood serum collected from PEMF-exposed or exercised mice allayed breast cancer cell growth, migration, and invasiveness. A secretome preconditioning methodology is presented that accentuates the graded anticancer potencies of both the cCM and pCM harvested from myotubes, demonstrating an adaptive response to pCM administered during early myogenesis that emulated secretome-based exercise adaptations observed in vivo. HTRA1 was shown to be upregulated in pCM and was demonstrated to be necessary and sufficient for the anticancer potency of the pCM; recombinant HTRA1 added to basal media recapitulated the anticancer effects of pCM and antibody-based absorption of HTRA1 from pCM precluded its anticancer effects. Brief and non-invasive PEMF stimulation may represent a method to commandeer the secretome response of muscle, both in vitro and in vivo, for clinical exploitation in breast and other cancers.
