Background: Ovarian cancer (OC) is the 5th leading cause of cancer death among women, and presents
poor prognosis when diagnosed at a late stage. Despite recent advances in OC managements,
patients can acquire chemoresistance after first-line treatments, and tumor progression
take place. Novel therapies targeting the immunological system have emerged as promising
complementary therapies for OC. The Protein aggregate magnesium-ammonium phospholinoleate-palmitoleate
anhydride (P-MAPA) immunotherapy and human recombinant interleukin-12 (IL-12) have
showed important effects in solid tumors and might be largely useful against OC development.
To evaluate the effects of P-MAPA and IL-12 alone and the combination therapy (P-MAPA
+ IL-12) on toll-like receptor 2 and 4 (TLR2 and 4)-mediated signaling pathway, cytokine/chemokine
secretion and migratory potential in OC cells.
