- Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of exosome from human colon cancer derived mesenchymal stem cells on the biological function of colon cancer cells. METHODS: Human colon cancer mesenchymal stem cells (hCC-MSCs) were induced from human colon cancer stem cells, and verified by flowcytometry, osteogenesis and adipogenesis differentiation. The exosomes were purified by ExoQuick Exosome Precipitation kit and characterized by electron microscopy, nanoparticle tracking analysis and Western blot. PKH67-labeled hCC-MSCs-Exo was co-cultured with HCT-116 and HT-29. The effects of hCC-MSCs-Exo on the biological function of colon cancer cell lines were investigated by CCK8 assay, wound healing assay and Transwell invasion assay. RESULTS: The hCC-MSCs showed monolayer adherent growth, fibrocyte-like with positive expression of CD29, CD90, CD105 and negative expression of CD34, CD45, HLA-DR, which have the abilities of osteoblasts and adipocytes. hCC-MSCs-Exo has an average diameter of 135 nanometers and positive expression of Alix, CD63 and CD81. After co-culture with colon cancer cell lines, hCC-MSCs-Exo was uptaken into the colon cancer cells. CCK8, wound healing and Transwell assays showed that the proliferation, migration and invasion ability of co-culture group were significantly enhanced compared with control group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: hCC-MSCs-Exo can promote the proliferation, migration and invasion of colon cancer cells. It is expected to be a new target for colon cancer treatment.
