Abstract:
Objective To explore the organic micro environmental effect of skeletal muscles on the proliferation of thoracic malignant cells, its significance in the rarity of metastases in skeletal muscles and the prospect for its clinical applications.Methods Primary culture of new born Wistar rat skeletal muscle cells was established.The murine skeletal muscle conditioned medium(MMCM)was prepared to test its effect on thoracic malignant cell lines of A549、Anip-973,PLA-801C,NCI-H466,Eca109 and benign cell line of BHK-21 by MTT assay.Results Proliferations of thoracic malignant cell lines of A549,Anip-973,PLA-801C,NCI-H466,and Eca109 were significantly restrained when cultured with MMCM,while the proliferation of benign renal cell line(BHK-21)was not affected.Conclusions The conditioned medium of new born Wistar rat skeletal muscle cells could selectively inhibit the proliferation of thoracic malignant cells in vitro.Moreover,it affects tumor cells only and has no apparent effect on normal cells,which differs from most of the chemotherapeutic agents.These findings suggest a sound mechanism in the rarity of metastases in skeletal muscles.A therapeutic agent could be generated from MMCM to complement surgery and/or chemotherapy.
