Lipopolysaccharide sensitizes the therapeutic response of breast cancer to IAP antagonist

186 views | Apr 03 2023

The study shows that LPS enhances the therapeutic response of IAP antagonists in treating triple-negative and ER+ breast cancer by inducing rapid apoptosis of cancer cells through TLR4- and MyD88-mediated production of TNFα, and suggests that antibiotics that can reduce microbiota-derived LPS should not be used together with an IAP antagonist for cancer therapy.
