Effect of CMNa combined with radiotherapy on the tumor immune microenvironment of mouse cervical cancer cell transplantation tumor model.

In this study, we construct a subcutaneous tumor mice model of U14 cells, observe the tumor growth, and detect the expression of Foxp3 and VISTA in cervical cancer tissues and adjacent tissues during CMNa-enhancing radiotherapy.From the 15th day, compared with the control group, the tumor volume changes in each treatment group were significant (P < 0.01). CMNa combined with radiotherapy had an interactive effect and a positive effect in inhibiting tumor volume growth. There was no significant difference in the expression of Foxp3 and VISTA in mouse cervical cancer tissues and adjacent tissues in each group. The Foxp3 level in the RT group was the highest, and the CMNa group was the lowest. The VISTA level of the CMNa+RT group was the highest, the RT group is followed by, and the Control group is the lowest. The Foxp3 level of the CMNa group did not change much at each different point. The Foxp3 level in RT and CMNa+RT group gradually decreased after a transient increase, and the VISTA level in the CMNa+RT group increased more.Our results show that CMNa can enhance the efficacy of radiotherapy, and at the same time can reduce the compensatory increase in regulatory T cell Foxp3 levels caused by radiotherapy, and reduce the radiotherapy response. However, in the course of the treatment of the two, there may be a substantial increase in the level of VISTA, and the combined application of VISTA inhibitors may increase the anti-tumor response.
