Abstract:
BACKGROUND:There is a close relationship between tumor stem cels and tumor occurrence and recurrence, but there are stil some disputes in the presence of tumor stem cels in al tumors.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the differentiation and culture of tumor stem cels in human primary gastric cancer cels.
METHODS:Primary gastric cancer cels isolated from fresh gastric cancer tissues were stained with hematoxylin-eosin and identified by immunohistochemical detection of carcinoembryonic antigen. The CD44 expression of the cels was detected using immunofluorescence method. Magnetic activated cel sorting was used to isolate CD44+gastric cancer cels that were then seeded subcutaneously behind the armpit of mice. Growth of implanted tumor cels was observed.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Human primary gastric cancer cels were isolated in serum-free medium. Compared with the routine culture group, the number of CD44+cels(P< 0.05)and the tumor volumewere significantly increased in the spheroid culture group. Furthermore, at 90 days after transplantation, the tumor volume of mice in spheroid culture group was significantly higher than that in the routine culture group. These experimental findings indicate that gastric cancer cels with certain tumorigenicity can be successfuly isolated from gastric cancer cels using serum-free culture method and magnetic activated cel sorting method.
