Abstract:
BACKGROUND:So far the positive or negative effects of mesenchymal stem cel s on tumor growth and metastasis are under discussion. OBJECTIVE:To explore the mechanism of bone marrow mesenchymal cel s in promoting lung cancer metastasis. METHODS:Primary rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s were obtained by direct adherence method of the whole bone marrow, and differential adherence combined with digestion control method was performed to purify cel s. Lung cancer cel lines were cultured, and the effects of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s on the migration, invasion and metastasis of lung cancer cel s were observed by scratch test, cel invasion and migration assays. Orthotopic lung cancer models were established in rats and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s were seeded onto the left lung of rats. Then, pathological changes of lung tissues were observed at 14 days after transplannation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After the scratch test, the migration rate of lung cancer cel s became higher, and the scratches healed with time. And after cel transplantation, the number of migrated lung cancer cel s increased, as wel as the ability of lung cancer cel s penetrating the Matrigel was strengthened. Besides, fibrous connective tissues could be found around the lung cancer tissues, and necrosis with distinct boundary and large tumor nuclei;the metastatic tissues showed obvious infiltration and necrosis with large tumor nuclei. These results suggest that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s can promote the invasion, migration and metastasis of lung cancer cel lines.
