Abstract
Tumor-Treating Fields (TTFields) use intermediate-frequency and low-intensity electric fields to inhibit tumor cells. However, their mechanisms are still not well understood. This article reviews their key antitumor mechanisms at the cellular and molecular levels, including inhibition of proliferation, induction of death, disturbance of migration, and activation of the immune system. The multifaceted biological effects in combination with other cancer treatments are also summarized. The deep insight into their mechanism will help develop more potential antitumor treatments.
