Background

Extensive evidence has accumulated regarding the role of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) in tumor progression, but the exact effects and mechanisms underlying this role remain unclear. We investigated the effects of MSC-associated tumor progression in MSC-sarcoma models and a gastric cancer metastatic model.

Methods

We conducted an in vitro growth kinetics assay and an in vivo tumor progression assay for sarcoma cells and gastric cancer cells in the presence or absence of MSCs.

Results

MSC-cocultured human fibrosarcoma cells (HT1080) showed accelerated growth compared with HT1080 alone (79- vs 37-fold change, p<.050). For HT1080, human MSC-coinjected tumors showed significantly greater and highly infiltrative growth compared to those of HT1080 alone (p=.035). For mouse fibrosarcoma cells (WEHI164), mouse MSC-coinjected tumors had greater volume than those of WEHI164 alone (p=.141). For rat sarcoma cells (RR1022), rat MSC-coinjected tumors exhibited greater volume and infiltrative growth than those of RR1022 alone (p=.050). For human gastric cancer cells (5FU), tumors of 5FU alone were compact, nodular in shape, and expansile with good demarcation and no definite lung metastatic nodules, whereas tumors grown in the presence of human MSCs showed highly desmoplastic and infiltrative growth and multiple lung metastasis.

Conclusions

We observed morphological evidence for MSC-associated tumor progression of fibrosarcomas and gastric cancer cells.

Abstract PDF

Background

Fibroadenoma (FA) and phyllodes tumor (PT) are stromal tumors of breast and are histologically similar. There are no established differences in tumorigenesis and oncogene expression among them. Ras homolog enriched in brain (RHEB) plays an important role in cell growth and cell-cycle control, histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) is an important factor in breast tumor progression and prognosis, and WEE1 homolog (WEE1) functions as a tumor suppressor. No studies on the expressional differences of these proteins in FA and PT have been reported to date.

Methods

The expression of these proteins in FA, PT, and normal breast was compared. We used 102 cases of FA and 25 cases of benign PT.

Results

In epithelial cells, the expression of RHEB, HDAC1, and WEE1 was lowest in PT, higher in FA, and most enhanced in normal breast. In addition, the expression of RHEB and HDAC1 was higher in the stromal cells of PT than in FA and normal breast.

Conclusions

Both epithelial and stromal cells of FA and PT express these proteins, which indicates that epithelial cells play an important role in the development of stromal tumors. In addition, the expressional differences of these proteins may be associated with the tumorigenesis of breast stromal tumors.

Abstract PDF

BACKGROUND
Stromal cells (SCs) of hemangioblastomas (HBs) have been regarded as true neoplastic components, but their ontogeny remains unclear. Convincing evidence suggests that embryonic mesenchymal cells may be the cells of origin of HBs. The aim of the present study was to investigate the immunophenotypic characteristics of neoplastic SCs using a set of markers against endothelial cells (ECs), vascular smooth muscle cells (vSMCs), mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs), and pericytes.
METHODS
Intracranial HBs (n=46), angiolipoma (n=9), and pyogenic granuloma (n=11) were retrieved and the immunophenotypic profile of SCs was determined by immune stainings.
RESULTS
The MIB-1 labeling index was significantly higher in SCs compared to that of ECs and vSMCs, regardless of the type of lesion. The neoplastic SCs of HBs consistently expressed both MSC and pericyte markers, but did not express markers of ECs and vSMCs. Double immunofluorescent staining demonstrated that the neoplastic SCs of HBs expressing MSC or pericyte markers directly abutted onto the ECs of capillaries/venules.
CONCLUSIONS
The results suggest that the neoplastic SCs of HBs share the immunophenotypic profile and distribution with those of pericyte-derived MSCs. Thus, HBs might originate from a distinctive population of pericyte-derived MSCs in the central nervous system.
