KMP01D Demonstrates Beneficial Anti-inflammatory Effects on Immune Cells: An ex vivo Preclinical Study of Patients With Colorectal Cancer
Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is frequently associated with dysbiosis of the gut microbiome which, together with a compromised gut barrier, can result in perioperative endotoxin leakage into the circulation. Constant local and systemic inflammatory activity is suggested to facilitate metastase...

This study aimed to examine the effects of the colostrum preparation, KMP01D, on the inflammatory activity of patient-derived immune cells.Methods: The effects of KMP01D on pro-/anti-inflammatory cytokine responses and apoptosis were examined ex vivo using immune cells from CRC patients (stages I–IV, n = 48). The expression of CD14, CD68, Toll-like receptor (TLR)4, and insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1 was also analyzed.Results: KMP01D increased interleukin (IL)-10 and IL-13 anti-inflammatory cytokine expression in patient-derived peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Interestingly, KMP01D also decreased the secretion of IL-1β, IL-6, interferon (IFN)-γ, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, IL-12 inflammatory cytokines, and IGF-1 in these cells. Moreover, CD14 and TLR4 expression involved in endotoxin signaling was downregulated in PBMCs and tumor-derived cells.
