Abstract:
:Tumor resistance to cytotoxic drugs is one of the main obstacles to successful cancer therapy. Emerging evidence suggests that chemoresistance is promoted by substances released from dead and damaged cells that activate the host repair program orchestrated by Toll-like receptor-4 (TLR4). TLR4 is often overexpressed in malignant and tumor-infiltrating immune cells. In addition to endogenous ligands released by therapy-induced tumor destruction, TLR4 is directly activated by paclitaxel, one of the most commonly used chemotherapeutic drugs against various human cancers. TLR4 activation promotes local and systemic inflammation, leading to induction of multiple circuits that create a regenerative environment favoring local recurrence and metastasis. Of particular importance is TLR4-mediated recruitment of endothelial progenitors derived from immature myeloid cells. These cells play a major role in rebuilding tumor-associated lymphatic and blood vessels, thereby promoting lymphatic and hematogenous metastasis. The latter is further enhanced by the premetastatic niche generated by mobilization of myeloid provascular cells to distant organs. This review summarizes the recent evidence demonstrating that paclitaxel and other clinically used anticancer drugs actively induce metastasis even while shrinking the primary tumor. Better understanding of the mechanisms underlying TLR4-dependent chemotherapy-driven metastasis might be the key to overcoming challenges of cancer eradication.
