Screening and mechanistic study of natural compounds that enhance T cell anti-tumor effects post-heat treatment by Zhaoyi Wang, Zhongqi Diao, Yiyan Zhang, Jiangying Liu, Yeshan Li, Zijin Sun, Huimin Zhen, Haojia Wang, Siyun Yang, Tieshan Wang, Lei Ni

“…We screened for compounds possessing anti-tumor properties and thoroughly investigated their mechanisms of action.Results and DiscussionThe findings indicated that heating treatment augmented the cytotoxic effect of Jurkat cells against malignant tumors, and the optimal effect was achieved when T cells were exposed to 39°C for a duration of 24 hours(48% increase in cell proliferation rate compared to 37°C treatment). By triggering the generation of heat shock proteins and facilitating mitochondrial energy supply, the 39°C treatment amplified the anti-tumor functions of T cells. …”
