• genotoxic effect observed in these strains, no significant increase in CA was found in the third strain V79B (Figure 12). The absence of CA in V79B is interpreted as a resistance to silver nanoparticles. Although we have not yet analyzed this phenomenon in detail, we propose that a multi-drug resistance

• heating modality is also able to induce up-regulation of HIF-1, and the overexpression of HIF-1 could compromise the therapeutic effect by increasing drug resistance by an up-regulation of p-glycoprotein and by reducing cancer cells drug senescence [37][38]. Our results showed that VEGF secretion was also
