Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Mesenchymal stem cells have the specific chemotaxis to the inflammation and tumor tissue, but the effect of mesenchymal stem cells on the growth of cervical cancer cells becomes an urgent problem.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells on the proliferation of cervical cancer Hela cells.
METHODS: Hela cells were co-cultured with human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells at different number or its conditioned medium at different concentrations for 3 days. Then, cell counting kit-8 was used to detect the proliferation of Hela cells.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: When Hela cells were co-cultured with human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells at ratios of 1:3, 1:2, 1:1, 2:1, 4:1, 8:1, the relative proliferation inhibition rates were 67.12%, 47.18%, 31.15%, 27.61%, 15.55% and 15.95%, respectively. When the Hela cells were co-cultured with human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell conditioned medium at 5, 10, 20, 40, 60, 100 mg/L, the relative proliferation inhibition rates were 0.61%, 40.1%, 63.47%, 80.61%, 93.56%, 90.65%, respectively. These findings indicate that the proliferation of Hela cells can be inhibited by co-culture with human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells at a certain concentration-dependent manner.
