Saccharides used in clinical nutrients and the hyperglycemia status may facilitate tumor growth and aggravate cancer patients’ outcome. As glucose, fructose and maltodextrin are widely used in clinical practice, various effects on tumor progress among them remain unknown. Six kinds of tumor cell lines were included in this study. We evaluated the discrepant effects of sugars on tumor growth by nude mice xenograft model, wound-healing assay and cell counting kit-8 test were for measuring the migration and proliferation capability in vitro, and oral gavage on C57BL/6 N mice was applied to assess the fluctuation of blood glucose level. Results showed that though tumor cells presented discrepant sensitivity to different saccharides, the combined usage of glucose, fructose with maltodextrin has milder effect on tumor progression and moderate effect on blood glucose fluctuation, which may indicate a brighter option on saccharides selection for tumor patients.
