肿瘤干细胞与正常成体干细胞在自我更新与增殖分化能力、表型标记和强耐药性等诸多方面存在着相类似的生物学特征,所以肿瘤干细胞被推测为肿瘤发生的细胞起源。基于肿瘤干细胞与正常干细胞之间的相似性质和肿瘤发生的分子机制,科学家建立了一系列从肿瘤组织或肿瘤细胞系分离肿瘤干细胞的实验方法和研究肿瘤干细胞起源的动物实验模型。现就目前在肿瘤干细胞起源和生物学特性领域的研究作概括阐述。  相似文献

ABCG2/Bcrp1转运蛋白:侧群干细胞的表型标记与功能调控蛋白   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4  
在骨髓、骨骼肌及神经组织均发现侧群干细胞(SPSCs)。ABC转运蛋白ABCG2/Bcrp1基因在不同来源侧群(SP)干细胞均呈高表达,且该基因表达与SP细胞表型密切相关。SP细胞能向不同类型或不同胚层的组织细胞分化,很可能代表了一群更原始的干细胞,且与干细胞可塑性相关。而ABCG2/Bcrp1在造血及神经等组织来源的SP干细胞中的特异表达,使得该转运蛋白成为从不同组织中分选多潜能干细胞的一种新的表型标记。  相似文献

To provide suitable models for human GBM cancer stem cells in vitro and in vivo, and investigate their biological characteristics, a new human GBM cancer stem-like cell line, WJ2, was established in this experiment through serial passages from adherent monolayer culture to nonadherent tumor sphere culture in turns; Its partial biological characteristics were studied through cell proliferation and tumor sphere assay; cell cycle distribution, side population, and CD133 phenotype were analyzed with FCM. The expressions of CD133, Nestin, and GFAP of cancer stem-like cells and xenograft tumor cells were detected with RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry. Biological characterization, side population, CD133 phenotype and CD133 Nestin, BCRP-1, Wnt-1 gene expression revealed the stemness of this cancer stem-like cell line. Tumorigenicity heterotransplanted in nude mice; histopathological characteristics of xenograft tumor, and expressions of CD133, Nestin, and GFAP of xenograft tumor cells indicated that xenograft tumors recapitulated the phenotype and biological characterization of human primary GBM. All findings of this experimental study suggested that WJ2 cancer stem-like cell line could accurately mimic human GBM cancer stem cell in vitro and in vivo; it would be useful in the cellular and molecular studies as well as in testing novel therapies of CSC-based anti-cancer therapies for human GBM.  相似文献

The cancer stem cell theory describes a small subset of cancer cells that have the ability to initiate and drive the growth of a tumor. The niche refers to the environmental factors and the surrounding cells within which the tumor develops. The exact relationship between cancer stem cells and the tumor niche is not known. However, using side population analysis by flow cytometry, it is possible to analyze the relationship between environmental stresses and putative cancer stem cells. The side population is a subpopulation of cells that efflux Hoechst 33342 and has been previously shown to be enriched for cancer stem cells. Using this technique, we characterized the response of side population cells to low confluency, serum starvation and hypoxia using three different human cancer cell lines. We found that these stresses, characteristic of the tumor niche enrich the side population of DLD1, SW480 and MCF7 cancer cell lines, thus possibly predisposing the tumor to a more malignant phenotype.  相似文献

ABCG2 is a member of the ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporters, which can pump a wide variety of endogenous and exogenous compounds out of cells. Widely expressed in stem cells, ABCG2 is also found to confer the side population phenotype and is recognized as a universal marker of stem cells. Although the precise physiological role of ABCG2 in stem cells is still unclear, existing data strongly suggest that ABCG2 plays an important role in promoting stem cell proliferation and the maintenance of the stem cell phenotype. In addition, ABCG2 is also found to be expressed in a number of cancer cells and appears to be a marker of cancer stem cells. Moreover, ABCG2 expression in tumors may contribute to their formation and progression. Thus, ABCG2 has potential applications in stem cell and tumor therapy.  相似文献

Although cancers are widely considered to be maintained by stem cells, the existence of stem cells in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) has seldom been reported, in part due to the lack of unique surface markers. We here identified cancer stem cell-like cells with side population (SP) phenotype in five human RCC cell lines. Flow cytometry analysis revealed that 769P, a human clear cell RCC cell line, contained the largest amount of SP cells as compared with other four cell lines. These 769P SP cells possessed characteristics of proliferation, self-renewal, and differentiation, as well as strong resistance to chemotherapy and radiotherapy that were possibly related to the ABCB1 transporter. In vivo experiments with serial tumor transplantation in mice also showed that 769P SP cells formed tumors in NOD/SCID mice. Taken together, these results indicate that 769P SP cells have the properties of cancer stem cells, which may play important roles in tumorigenesis and therapy-resistance of RCC.  相似文献

In recent years, a special type of cancer cell--the cancer stem cell (CSC)--has been identified and characterized for different tumors. CSCs may be responsible for the recurrence of a tumor following a primarily successful therapy and are thought to bear a high metastatic potential. For the development of efficient treatment strategies, the establishment of reliable methods for the identification and effective isolation of CSCs is imperative. Similar to their stem cell counterparts in bone marrow or small intestine, different cluster of differentiation surface antigens have been characterized, thus enabling researchers to identify them within the tumor bulk and to determine their degree of differentiation. In addition, functional properties characteristic of stem cells can be measured. Side population analysis is based on the stem cell-specific activity of certain ATP-binding cassette transporter proteins, which are able to transport fluorescent dyes out of the cells. Furthermore, the stem cell-specific presence of aldehyde dehydrogenase isoform 1 can be used for CSC labeling. However, the flow cytometric analysis of these CSC functional features requires specific technical adjustments. This review focuses on the principles and strategies of the flow cytometric analysis of CSCs and provides an overview of current protocols as well as technical requirements and pitfalls. A special focus is set on side population analysis and analysis of ALDH activity. Flow cytometry-based sorting principles and future flow cytometric applications for CSC analysis are also discussed.  相似文献

It has been suggested that cancer stem cells population within the solid tumor with indefinite proliferation potential drives the growth and metastasis of cancer. In literature, these malignant stem cells also named Cancer initiating cells. Cancer stem cells exhibit low rate of division and proliferation in their niche that help them to avoid chemotherapy and radiation. Epithelial cancers are believed to originate from transformation of tissue stem cells. Bone marrow-derived cells, which are frequently recruited to sites of tissue injury and inflammation, might also represent a potential source of malignancy in the gastrointestinal tract. Pancreatic cancer is one of most common cause of cancer-related death. Pancreatic cancer stem cells have been characterized recently through serial transplantation of human pancreatic cancer cells. The phenotype of Pancreatic cancer stem cells has been defined as CD24(+)CD44(+)CD326 (ESA)(+). CD133 antigen has been also suggested as a potential marker for cancer stem cell in gastrointestinal tract but recently there is also debate in this regard. More recently, other cancer stem cells in gastrointestinal tract, such as colon cancer stem cells, liver cancer stem cells, have been also characterized in their phenotype. These advances clearly will bring the new strategy in cancer treatment and control in the gastrointestinal tract. In this review, the author will discuss the current status and progress about cancer stem cell research in gastrointestinal tract and liver.  相似文献

The side population (SP) phenotype is shared by stem cells in various tissues and species. Here we demonstrate SP cells with Hoechst dye efflux were surprisingly collected from the epithelia of both the rat limbus and central cornea, unlike in human and rabbit eyes. Our results show that rat limbal SP cells have a significantly higher expression of the stem cell markers ABCG2, nestin, and notch 1, compared to central corneal SP cells. Immunohistochemistry also revealed that ABCG2 and the epithelial stem/progenitor cell marker p63 were expressed only in basal limbal epithelial cells. These results demonstrate that ABCG2 expression is closely linked to the stem cell phenotype of SP cells.  相似文献

In the field of stem cell research, SP (side population) phenotype is used to define the property that cells maintain a high efflux capability for some fluorescent dye, such as Hoechst 33342. Recently, many researches proposed that SP phenotype is a phenotype shared by some stem cells and some progenitor cells, and that SP phenotype is regarded as a candidate purification marker for stem cells. In this research, murine fertilized ova (including conjugate and single nucleus fertilized ova), 2-cell stage and 8-cell stage blastomeres, morulas and blastocysts were isolated and directly stained by Hoechst 33342 dye. The results show that fertilized ovum, blastomere and morula cells do not demonstrate any ability to efflux the dye. However, the inner cell mass (ICM) cells of blastocyst exhibit SP phenotype, which is consistent with the result of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) in vitro. These results indicate that the SP phenotype of ICM-derived ESCs is an intrinsic property and independent of the culture condition in vitro, and that SP phenotype is one of the characteristics of at least some pluripotent stem cells, but is not shared by totipotent stem cells. In addition, the result that the SP phenotype of ICM cells disappeared when the inhibitor verapamil was added into medium implies that the SP phenotype is directly associated with ABCG2. These results suggest that not all the stem cells demonstrate SP phenotype, and that SP phenotype might act as a purification marker for partial stem cells such as some pluripotent embryonic stem cells and multipotent adult stem cells, but not for all stem cells exampled by the totipotent stem cells in the very early stage of mouse embryos.  相似文献
