High salt diet does not impact the development of acute myeloid leukemia in mice.

ABSTRACT: The gut microbiota has not only been implicated in the development of some cancers but has also been shown to modulate the efficacy of cancer therapeutics. Although the microbiota is an attractive target in cancer therapy, there is limited data available regarding the relevance of microbiota and dietary interventions in the various types of tumors. Recently, a high salt diet (HSD) has attracted attention in cancer development owing to its profound effects on modulating microbiota and immune responses. Here, we investigated the impact of HSD on microbiota, immune responses, and the development of acute myeloid leukemia using two syngeneic transplantation models. HSD significantly changes the microbiota composition, TH17 responses, and NK cells. However, we found no influence of HSD on tumor
