Abstract

BACKGROUND
Mesenchymal Stem/Stromal Cells (MSCs) from the decidua parietalis (DPMSCs) of human term placenta express several molecules with important biological and immunological properties. DPMSCs induce natural killer cell expression of inflammatory receptors and their cytotoxic activity against cancer cells. These propertiesmakeDPMSCs promising therapeutical agent for cancer. The successful development of MSCs as an anti-cancer therapeutic cells rely on their ability to function in a hostile inflammatory and oxidative stress cancer environment. Here, we studied the effects of conditioned medium obtained from the culture of breast cancer cells (CMMDA-231) on the functional and phenotypic properties of DPMSCs.
METHODS
DPMSCs were cultured with CMMDA-231 and important functions of DPMSCs were measured. The effect of CMMDA-231 on DPMSC expression of several genes with different functions was also evaluated.
RESULTS
DPMSCs were able to function in response to CMMDA-231, but with reduced proliferative and adhesive potentials. Preconditioning of DPMSCs with CMMDA-231 enhanced their adhesion while reducing their invasion. In addition, CMMDA-231 modulated DPMSC expression of many genes with various functional (i.e., proliferation, adhesion, and invasion) properties. DPMSCs also showed increased expression of genes with anti-cancer property.
CONCLUSION
These data show the ability of DPMSCs to survive and function in cancer environment. In addition, preconditioning of DPMSCs with CMMDA-231 enhanced their anti-cancer properties and thus demonstrating their potential as an anti-cancer therapeutic agent. However, future studies are essential to reveal the mechanism underlying the effects of MDA-231 on DPMSC functional activities and also to confirm the anti-cancer therapeutic potential of DPMSCs.
