This study aims to investigate whether bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC) exosomes (BMSC-exos) affects the progression of colon cancer. Ultracentrifugation was used to extract and collect BMSC-exos which were assessed under electron microscope and by flow cytometry. The BMSCs were divided into two groups: control group treated with α-MEM basal medium and experimental group with exosomes (10 μg/ml). Exos were extracted from BMSCs and co-cultured with colon cancer cells, followed by analysis of cell viability by CCK-8 assay and GLUT3 mRNA and protein expression by RT-qPCR and Western blot. The electron microscope analysis indicated that the primary BMSCs showed a long spindle shape with a negative expression of antigen CD34 and positive antigen CD90. Importantly, exos inhibited the viability of colon cancer cells HCT116 and decreased the expression of GLUT3, suggesting that exos might increase the colon cancer cell apoptosis. In conclusion, BMSC-exos inhibit cell progression in colon cancer and might be served as a promising biomarker.

Abstract Background: Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BM-MSC) has been shown to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). However, excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) increases the apoptosis of BM-MSCs, leading to poor survival and engraft efficiency. Thus, improving the ability of BM-MSCs to scavenge ROS may considerably enhance the effectiveness of transplantation therapy. Mammalian Ste20-like kinase 1 (Mst1) is a pro-apoptotic molecule which increases ROS production. The aim of this study is to uncover whether Mst1 inhibition enhanced the tolerance of BM-MSCs under H2O2 condition and the underlying mechanisms. Methods: Mst1 expression in BM-MSCs was inhibited via transfection with adenoviruses expressing a short hairpin (sh) RNA directed against Mst1 (Ad-sh-Mst1) and exposure to H 2 O 2 . Cell viability was detected by Cell counting Kit 8 (CCK-8) assay, and cell apoptosis was analyzed by Annexin V-FITC/PI, Caspase 3 Activity Assay kits, and pro caspase 3 expression. ROS level was evaluated by the ROS probe DCFH-DA, mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) assay, SOD1/2, CAT, and GPx expression. Autophagy was assessed using transmission electron microscopy, stubRFP-sensGFP-LC3 lentivirus and autophagy-related protein expression. The autophagy/Keap1/Nrf2 signal in H 2 O 2 -treated BM-MSC/sh-Mst1 was also measured. Results: Mst1 inhibition reduced ROS production, increased antioxidant enzyme SOD1/2, CAT, GPx expression, maintained ΔΨm, and alleviated cell apoptosis in H 2 O 2 -treated BM-MSCs. In addition, this phenomenon was closely correlated with the autophagy/Keap1/Nrf2 signal pathway. The autophagy inhibitor, the antioxidant pathway Keap1/Nrf2, was also blocked when autophagy was inhibited by 3-MA. However, Keap1 or Nrf2 knockout via siRNA had no effect on autophagy activation or suppression. Conclusion: Mst1 inhibition mediates the cytoprotective benefit of mBM-MSCs against H 2 O 2 oxidative stress injury. The underlying mechanisms involve autophagy activation and the Keap1/Nrf2 signal pathway.

Background and Aim: Endometriosis affects the ovaries and causes a decrease in the oocyte quality during endometrial receptivity. During the development of ovarian follicles, paracrine communication occurs between granulosa cells and oocytes. This study was conducted to determine the effects of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell transplantation on tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) receptor 1 (TNFR1) expression, granulosa cell apoptosis, and folliculogenesis in endometriosis mouse models. Materials and Methods: This study involved 42 female mice, which were divided into three groups: Healthy mice (T0), endometriosis mice without transplantation (T1), and endometriosis mice with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell transplantation (T2). The mice were injected intraperitoneally with endometrial fragments (200 μL) to become endometriosis models. On day 15, the endometriosis models received mesenchymal stem cells. Sample collection was performed on day 29. Granulosa cell apoptosis and TNFR1 expression were examined using immunohistochemical staining, and folliculogenesis was assessed using hematoxylin and eosin staining of ovary samples. The data obtained from both examinations were statistically analyzed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences. Results: The results showed that TNFR1 expression is significantly decreased in T2 (p<0.004). The apoptosis of granulosa cells was lower in T2 (p<0.000). The primary, secondary, and graafian follicle counts in T2 were significantly increased. Conclusion: Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell transplantation in endometriosis mouse models can reduce TNFR1 expression and granulosa cell apoptosis and improve folliculogenesis.
