Effects of Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells Derived from Patients with Newly Diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia on the Cell Proliferation, Cell Cycle and Immunophenotypes of HL-60 Cells / 中国实验血液学杂志

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the role of bone marrow microenvironment(niche) in the development of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and the effect of AML patients-derived MSC on the proliferation, cell cycle and immuno-phenotypes of HL-60 cells.@*METHODS@#The MSC derived from bone marrow of patients with newly diagnosed AML were isolated and co-cultured with HL-60 cells. The effect of MSC on proliferation of HL-60 cells was detected by using 3H-TdR incorporation method, the cell cycle and immunophenotypes of HL-60 cells were detected by flow cytometry.@*RESULTS@#The results of 3H-TdR incorporation assay showed that both AML-MSCs and normal MSCs remarkably suppressed the HL-60 cell proliferation in a time- and dose-dependent manner. The results of cell cycle analysis demonstrated that AML MSCs and normal MSCs induced arrest of the HL-60 cells in G/G phase. The results of immunophenotyping revealed that MSCs suppressed the expression of CD11a and CD154 on the surface of HL-60 cells. Moreover, AML MSCs exhibited increased inhibitory effects than that of normal MSCs. However, no remarkable effect of MSCs on CD54 expressions of HL-60 cells was observed in the current study.@*CONCLUSION@#AML-MSCs possess effects on HL-60 cell proliferation, cell cycle and immunophenotypes similiar to normal MSCs, but exhibited increased suppressive capacity on the expression of CD11a and CD154.
