08 What's in the room Eight modalities, sequenced per patient
For example, in a breast cancer model, MT inhibits the growth of tumors by binding to the melatonin membrane receptor (MT1), down-regulates the expression of estrogen receptor (ER), and promotes changes in the number of CD4+ and CD25+ Treg cells in the tumor microenvironment, triggering anti-cancer immunity
Seiwerth and colleagues (Inflammopharmacology, 1999) documented effects on angiogenic growth factor pathway signalling, and subsequent work has expanded characterisation to include VEGF receptor 2 upregulation, endothelial cell migration in capillary-formation assays, and improved healing in ischemia-reperfusion preparations

These MHC-antigen complexes are recognized by CD4+ T helper cells, which become activated upon binding
