Abstract:
Human placental-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hPMSCs) are a promising candidate to inhibit the proliferation of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cell lines such as HepG2. However, the effects of hPMSCs and their conditioned media on HepG2 are still elusive. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects of hPMSCs and their conditioned media on HepG2 and elucidate the underlying mechanism of action. The percentage of cell death (early apoptosis, late apoptosis) was observed by fluorescence-activated cell sorting and MTT assay. The DIO and DID color were used to detect interaction and cell death of both cells through cell fusion. Co-treatment of HepG2 cells with hPMSCs or hPMSCs-conditioned medium (hPMSCs-CM) inhibited HepG2 proliferation and induced their apoptosis. Morphological changes were also observed in the case of 30%, 50%, and 70% co-culture of both cells together in vitro. Treatment with hPMSCs or hPMSCs-CM induced HepG2 cell death through apoptosis as detected by flow cytometry, caspase 9 immunofluorescence, qPCR (detection of Bax, Bcl-2, and B catenin genes), by western blot, immunophenotyping (detection of caspase 9, caspase 3 protein). The hPMSCs and hPMSCs-CM could induce HepG2 cell cycle arrest. HepG2 cell growth was arrested in the G0/ G1 phase following treatment with hPMSCs or hPMSCs-CM. These treatments also inhibited the migration of HepG2 cells with maximum effect when using the highest ratio/concentration of hPMSCs (70%) and hPMSCs-CM (90%). Our results suggested that hPMSCs and hPMSCs-CM will be promising candidates to treat liver cancer.. Recent Publications 1.
