ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND/AIMS: This study aimed to apply ultra-broadband micromechanical ultrasound (UMUS) for correction of myelosuppression caused by the cytotoxic effects of cyclophosphamide without limiting its antitumor efficacy.
METHODS: The study included animals bearing transplanted Ehrlich carcinoma. Cyclophosphamide (CP) was administered once daily for three consecutive days starting on day 8 of tumor growth at a cumulative dose of 330 mg/kg per mouse. After completion of CP administration, a subset of animals was exposed to UMUS irradiation once daily for five days. Control groups included mice without tumors and tumor-bearing mice not exposed to CP or UMUS. Tumor growth kinetics were analyzed, and quantitative parameters of peripheral blood, bone marrow, and spleen were determined.
RESULTS: The obtained data indicate that UMUS exposure does not reduce the antitumor efficacy of CP but is associated with enhanced recovery of the hematopoietic system and exerts a positive effect on bone marrow regeneration. This is confirmed by a statistically significant increase in the number of cells in specific bone marrow hematopoietic pools, including myelokaryocytes, blast cells, erythroid, lymphoid, and megakaryocytic cells.
CONCLUSION: UMUS exposure was associated with accelerated recovery of multiple hematopoietic lineages in the bone marrow following cyclophosphamide-induced injury, without compromising antitumor efficacy.
