Doxorubicin modulated clock genes and cytokines in macrophages extracted from tumor-bearing mice.

ABSTRACT: Circadian rhythm is essential for cellular regulation of physiological, metabolic, and immune functions. Perturbations of circadian rhythms have been correlated with increased susceptibility to cancer and poor prognosis in the cancer treatment. Our aim is to investigate the role of doxorubicin (DOX) treatment on clock genes expression and inflammation in intraperitoneal macrophages and the antitumoral response.

Methods

Macrophages were extracted from intraperitoneal cavity of mice without or with Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) and treated with DOX totaling four groups (CTL, LLC, LLC+DOX and DOX) and analyzes of clock genes in six time points (ZT02, ZT06, ZT10, ZT14, ZT18 AND ZT22). Intraperitoneal macrophages cell culture was stimulated with LPS and DOX and clock genes and inflammatory
