Abstract

Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are immature cells with an immunosuppressive function. MDSCs have been related to inflammation in many settings, including infections, transplantation, obesity, aging, or cancer. In oncological settings, MDSCs participate in tumor immunoescape, growth, and metastasis. Certain nutrients can modify chronic inflammation by their interaction with MDSCs. Therefore, the possible influence of certain nutrients on immune surveillance by their actions on MDSCs and how this may affect the prognosis of cancer patients were evaluated in this scoping review. We identified seven papers, six of which were murine model studies and only one was a human clinical trial. Globally, a significant reduction in cancer growth and progression was observed after achieving a reduction in both MDSCs and their immunosuppressive ability with nutrients such as selected vegetables, icaritin, retinoic acid, curdlan, active vitamin D, soy isoflavones, and green tea. In conclusion, the consumption of certain nutrients may have effects on MDSCs, with beneficial results not only in the prevention of tumor development and growth but also in improving patients’ response.
