Abstract:
Objectives To isolate cancer stem cells (CSCs) in pancreatic cancer cell lines PANC1 and ASPC-1 with serum-free medium( SFM ), and to detect the expression of miR-590-3p in CSCs. Methods PANC1 and ASPC-1 cells was cultured in serum-free medium. The monoclonal formation, differentiation and cell cycle, half inhibitory concentration ( IC50 ), and the expression of the surface markers CD24 + , CD44 + were detected. qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of miR-590-3p. Results After SFM culture, (0.94 ±0.53 ) ％ of ASPC-1 and (0.57 + 0. 12 ) ％ PANC1 survived, and they formed spheres, and could continuously passage in vitro. Cell spheres differentiation recurred when serum was supplemented in SFM. The G0/G1 stage proportion, CD24+ , CD44 + , CD24+ CD44+ cells proportion, IC50 in ASPC-1 cell were (75.3 ± 5.4)％,0.96％ ～ 2.01％, 27.52％ ～ 34.47％, 0.35％ ～ 0.44％ and (224.37 ± 5.71 ) μg/ml, which were significantly higher than that those in parent cell [ (43.7 ± 3.8 ) ％, 0. 38％ ～ 0.42％, 17.65％ ～ 18.25％,0.05％ ～0.08％, (11.43 ±2.10)μg/ml, P＜0.05]. The G0/G1 stage proportion, CD24+ ,CD44+ ,CD24 +CD44 + cells proportion, IC50 in PANC 1 cell were ( 80. 1 ± 4.7) ％, 5.31％ ～ 9.84％, 72.05％ ～ 93.06％,4.91％ ～5.21％, (296.58±4.27) μg/ml, which were significantly higher than that those in parent cell [ (46.1 ±5.3)％, 4.09％ ～4.97％, 47.71％ ～55.66％, 1.48％ ～2.63％, (26.17 ±3.81)μg/ml, P＜0.05]. The expression of miR-590-3p in ASPC-1, PANC1 spheres was 4.67 and 4.52 times higher than the expression in parent cell lines. Conclusions Pancreatic cancer cell spheres can be isolated from ASPC-1, PANC1 by culture with SFM. miR-590-3p is up-regulated and may play an important role in regulating biological characteristics of pancreatic cancer stem cells.
