Abstract in brief

This study introduces a new cancer treatment strategy that combines two FDA-approved antibiotics, Doxycycline and Azithromycin, with Vitamin C to target cancer stem cells (CSCs) by disrupting their mitochondrial function.
The approach works by inhibiting mitochondrial protein synthesis through the antibiotics and inducing mitochondrial biogenesis via oxidative stress from Vitamin C, leading to a dramatic 90% reduction in CSC growth in breast cancer cells.
Using sub-antimicrobial doses helps avoid antibiotic resistance issues, and the findings suggest this combination could be a promising and innovative way to target tumor growth and improve overall health.
