Abstract:
Objective To trace human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)labelled by USPIO-PLL which were transplanted into mouse subcutaneous xenotransplanted lung cancer by using 3.0T MR,to investigate the relationship between MSCs and VEGF expression and tumor angiogenesis by using SABC immunohistochemical method and to comprehensively analyze the effect of MSCs transplantation on lung cancer.Methods Cultured MSCs and poly lysine (PLL)was as a transfection agent which was magnetically labeled by USPIO and implanted into mice with subcutaneous xenotransplanted lung cancer through the tail vein.MRI was performed at pre-transplantation, 1 d and 10 d after transplantation and the tissues were performed by immunohistochemistry respectively.Results (1)MSCs could reach the tumor area at the first day after the transplantation and be monitored by MRI.MSCs increased at the 10th day.MRI signal intensity was reducedand the difference was statistically significant (P <0.05).The inhibitory rate of the 1st day and 10th day was positive;(2)At the 10th day after the transplantation,the rate of the VEGF positive expression in MSCs group was 86.67％,the value of MVD was 44 .22 ± 12 .36 ,and the rate of the VEGF positive expression in NS group was 26 .67 ％ ,the value of MVD was 20 .29 ±8.47 (P <0.05).Conclusion Tracing stem cell transplantation in vivo can be proceeded effectively by using 3.0T MR.Stem cell has bidirectional effect on lung cancer which inhibites the tumor growth by directional chemotaxis and differentiation,and also enhances expression of VEGF and angiogenesis at a certain extent.
