Differences of the Immune Phenotype of Breast Cancer Cells after Ex Vivo Hyperthermia by Warm-Water or Microwave Radiation in a Closed-Loop System Alone or in Combination with Radiotherapy

The treatment of breast cancer by radiotherapy can be complemented by hyperthermia. Little is known about how the immune phenotype of tumor cells is changed thereby, also in terms of a dependence on the heating method. We developed a sterile closed-loop system, using either a warm-water bath or a mi...
