Antibiotics-chemotherapeutics combination have become on the table for many cancer treatments. For this reason, we thought that further progress and development of studies to support chemotherapeutic approaches with the use of antibiotics may be beneficial in the clinical field. Cell lines (SCC-15, HTB-41, and MRC-5) were treated with 5100 mu M/ml concentrations of cisplatin (cisp) and amoxicillin/clavulanic acid (amx/cla) with combination (amx/cla-cisp) and alone in three different incubation periods. The all-cells viability was examined with WST-1 and apoptotic activity of the drugs were investigated via cell death ELISA assay kit. The cytotoxic impact of the 100 mu M amx/cla-cisp combination was found to be reduced by up to 21.8%, which was significant given that the cytotoxic effect of only cisplatin therapy was 86.1%. Because our findings demonstrated that solo amx/cla therapy have almost no impact on proliferation or death, we focused on the amx/cla-cisp combination effect. It was found that the amx/cla-cisp combination has reduced the apoptotic fragment when comparing with the solely cisp-treated cells. Due to amx/cla-cisp combination on both cells but significantly on SCC-15 recovered the sole cisplatin effect, we believe that there might be a second thought when prescribing antibiotics while treating cancer patients. Not only the antibiotic's type but also the cancer type might interact to lessen the chemotherapeutic agent's impact which is clinically a dilemma to focus on. (c) 2023 Elsevier Masson SAS.
