Abstract

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a heterogeneous population of multipotent cells that are capable of differentiating into osteocytes, chondrocytes and adipocytes. Recently, MSCs have been found to home to the tumour site and engraft in the tumour stroma. However, it is not yet known whether they have a tumour promoting or suppressive function. We investigated the interaction between prostate cancer cell lines 22Rv1, DU145 and PC3, and bone marrow-derived MSCs. MSCs were 'educated' for extended periods in prostate cancer cell conditioned media and PC3-educated MSCs were found to be the most responsive with a secretory profile rich in pro-inflammatory cytokines. PC3-educated MSCs secreted increased osteopontin (OPN), interleukin-8 (IL-8) and fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) and decreased soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 (sFlt-1) compared to untreated MSCs. PC3-educated MSCs showed a reduced migration and proliferation capacity that was dependent on exposure to PC3-conditioned medium. Vimentin and α-smooth muscle actin (αSMA) expression was decreased in PC3-educated MSCs compared to untreated MSCs. PC3 and DU145 education of healthy donor and prostate cancer patient derived MSCs led to a reduced proportion of FAP+ αSMA+ cells contrary to characteristics commonly associated with cancer associated fibroblasts (CAFs). The migration of PC3 cells was increased towards both PC3-educated and DU145-educated MSCs compared to untreated MSCs, while DU145 migration was only enhanced towards patient derived MSCs In summary, MSCs developed an altered phenotype in response to prostate cancer conditioned medium which resulted in increased secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines, modified the functional activity and the chemoattraction of prostate cancer cells.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 4. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 22 December 2017.
All research outputs
#7,778,732
of 25,250,629 outputs
Outputs from International Journal of Cancer
#4,678
of 12,245 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#145,240
of 455,758 outputs
Outputs of similar age from International Journal of Cancer
#35
of 103 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,250,629 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 69th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 12,245 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 9.0. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 61% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 455,758 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 67% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 103 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 66% of its contemporaries.
