中国医学科学院昆明医学生物研究所研究生瞿素在胡云章导师指导下,论述了肿瘤干细胞的研究进展。他们认为肿瘤是危害人类健康的重大疾病,论其起源有去分化起源和干细胞起源,但大多数倾向于干细胞起源的观点。因肿瘤细胞能从血液系统恶性肿瘤中分离,也能从乳腺癌实体瘤干细胞中分离。当前可针对细胞特异表面标记,可以靶向消灭肿瘤干细胞而治疗肿瘤疾病。有人证实只有部分肿瘤细胞具有致癌性,有人提示肿瘤是通过干细胞的增殖及其分化成组织特异的细胞类型;有人认为恶性肿瘤的产生发展是干细胞的分化受阻,而不是成熟细胞去分化。恶性肿瘤发生于… 相似文献

最近的一项研究报导,采用流式细胞仪分选技术从人胃癌细胞株中分离出CD44+胃癌干细胞. 20~30×103个CD44+细胞入NOD/SCID 鼠腹部皮下和胃浆膜下能形成胃癌移植瘤, 100×103个CD44-的细胞入NOD/SCID 鼠体内不形成肿瘤.采用无血清、无粘附间质的干细胞体外培养方法,发现CD44+的细胞能形成肿瘤微球体,具有自我更新能力,而CD44-的细胞则不形成球形克隆.上述的实验结果说明,在人胃癌细胞株中存在胃癌肿瘤干细胞.据此可以相信,胃癌干细胞是胃癌细胞中具有自我更新及分化潜能的一小群细胞,不能被目前的化疗、放疗等抗癌治疗措施所杀灭,是胃癌术后复发、肿瘤进展扩散转移的根源.胃癌干细胞可能来源于骨髓干细胞.随着对胃癌肿瘤干细胞生物学研究的深入,必将为胃癌的临床诊断和治疗提供新的策略. 相似文献

肿瘤干细胞(cancerstem cells,CSCs)是在肿瘤组织中具有干细胞特性的细胞亚群,它具有正常干细胞的多向分化潜能,能够无限增值和自主分化为各种具有异质性的肿瘤细胞。CSCs在肿瘤的发生、生长、转移中起着重要作用。同时,CSCs对目前大多数治疗如化疗、放疗不敏感,甚至具有耐药性,这也就导致了恶性肿瘤在治疗后容易复发。鉴于此,针对肿瘤干细胞的治疗日益受到关注,光动力疗法(photodynamictherapy,PDT)由于其微创性,不良反应少,靶向性强等特点在肿瘤的治疗研究中不断得到发展。本文将从CSCs的特性入手,结合PDT治疗的最新进展,探讨PDT治疗在肿瘤干细胞治疗中的应用。 相似文献

恶性肿瘤是威胁人类健康的全球重大公共卫生问题,多种方法联合,特别是以靶向治疗联合免疫治疗为主的治疗手段,在一定程度延缓了恶性肿瘤的发展,提高了患者的近期生存率,但这些治疗方法并不能覆盖所有患者,远期疗效仍然有限。因此,如何提高患者的生存质量和远期生存率,降低死亡率,成为当前亟待解决的关键问题。近年来越来越多的研究显示肠道微生物的分布与恶性肿瘤的发生、发展密切相关,或可成为治疗恶性肿瘤的新辅助方法,特别是嗜黏蛋白阿克曼菌(Akkermansia muciniphila)的报道较多,然而,关于该菌在恶性肿瘤辅助治疗中安全性和有效性的文献报道尚不多见。因此,本文旨在通过收集近年来嗜黏蛋白阿克曼菌在恶性肿瘤方面的文献,将其研究成果和应用结果进行归纳、分析,以期为临床综合治疗提供一定的药物选择。 相似文献

Despite many advances and optimization in colon cancer treatment, tumor recurrence and metastases make the development of new therapies necessary. Colon cancer stem cells (CCSCs) are considered as the main triggering factor of cancer progression, recurrence, and metastasis. CCSCs as a result of accumulated genetic and epigenetic alterations and also complex interconnection with the tumor microenvironment (TME) can evolve and convert to full malignant cells. Mounting evidence suggests that in cancer therapy both CCSCs and non-CCSCs in TME have to be regarded to break through the limitation of current therapies. In this regard, stem cell capabilities of some non-CCSCs may arise inside the TME condition. Therefore, a deep knowledge of regulatory mechanisms, heterogeneity, specific markers, and signaling pathways of CCSCs and their interconnection with TME components is needed to improve the treatment of colorectal cancer and the patient's life quality. In this review, we address current different targeted therapeutic options that target cell surface markers and signaling pathways of CCSCs and other components of TME. Current challenges and future perspectives of colon cancer personalized therapy are also provided here. Taken together, based on the deep understanding of biology of CCSCs and using three-dimensional culture technologies, it can be possible to reach successful colon cancer eradication and improvise combination targeted therapies against CCSCs and TME. 相似文献

Cancer stem cells (CSCs), a group of tumour cells with stem cell characteristics, have the ability of self-renewal, multi-lineage differentiation and tumour formation. Since CSCs are resistant to conventional radiotherapy and chemotherapy, their existence may be one of the root causes of cancer treatment failure and tumour progression. The elimination of CSCs may be effective for eventual tumour eradication. Because of the good therapeutic effects without major histocompatibility complex (MHC) restriction and the unique characteristics of CSCs, chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy is expected to be an important method to eliminate CSCs. In this review, we have discussed the feasibility of CSCs-targeted CAR-T therapy for cancer treatment, summarized current research and clinical trials of targeting CSCs with CAR-T cells and forecasted the challenges and future direction from the perspectives of toxicity, persistence and potency, trafficking, infiltration, immunosuppressive tumour microenvironment, and tumour heterogeneity. 相似文献

Background: There is an unmet need to identify biomarkers that directly reflect response to adjuvant radiotherapy (RT). Circulating epithelial tumor cells (CETCs) represent the liquid component of solid tumors and are responsible for metastatic relapse. CETC subsets with cancer stem cell characteristics, circulating cancer stem cells (cCSCs), play a pivotal role in the metastatic cascade. Monitoring the most aggressive subpopulation of CETCs could reflect the aggressiveness of the remaining tumor burden. There is limited data on the detection and monitoring changes in CETC and cCSC numbers during RT in early breast cancer.Methods: CETC numbers were analyzed prior to, at midterm and at the end of RT in 52 primary non-metastatic breast cancer patients. Hormone receptor status was determined in CETCs prior to and at the end of RT. For the identification of cCSCs cell suspensions from the peripheral blood of patients were cultured in vitro under conditions favoring growth of tumorspheres.Results: Hormone receptor status in CETCs before RT was comparable to that in primary tumor tissue. Prior to RT numbers of CETCs correlated with aggressiveness of primary tumors. cCSCs could be successfully identified and monitored during RT. Prior to RT patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy had significantly higher numbers of CETCs and tumorspheres compared to patients after adjuvant chemotherapy. During RT, the number of CETCs decreased continuously in patients after neoadjuvant chemotherapy but not after adjuvant chemotherapy.Conclusion: Monitoring the number of CETCs and the CETC subset with cancer stem cell properties during RT may provide additional clinically useful prognostic information. 相似文献

关于恶性肿瘤发生、复发与转移机制的研究由来已久,但目前的临床治疗方法依然不能克服肿瘤复发与转移的难题,肿瘤患者的生存率并未得到显著改善。近年来的研究提示肿瘤的起源、复发与转移的真正原因可能是存在于肿瘤内的极少数具有干细胞特性的细胞,即肿瘤干细胞(cancer stem cells,CSC)。与此同时,越来越多的研究表明,对于肿瘤干细胞的发生与功能维持,表观遗传学的调控机制可能发挥着极其重要的作用。该文简要综述目前肿瘤干细胞和表观遗传学相关领域的研究进展,并对肿瘤干细胞形成及发展过程中表观遗传学的调控作用及机制进行重点介绍。 相似文献

Pancreatic cancer continues to be a malignancy with few therapeutic options. The majority of patients that present for an evaluation have locally advanced or metastatic disease that is incurable by surgical approaches. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy resistance of pancreatic adenocarcinomas limits the efficacy of these therapeutic approaches. Recent evidence supports the existence of human pancreatic cancer stem cells, which appear to drive tumor initiation and progression and are particularly resistant to cell death induced by radiation or chemotherapy. Understanding the mechanisms of pancreatic cancer stem cell self‐renewal and resistance to standard therapies may lead to new, more effective therapies to treat this dismal disease. J. Cell.

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) hold great promise as therapeutic agents in regenerative medicine. They are also considered as a preferred cell source for urinary tract reconstruction. However, as MSCs exhibit affinity to tumor microenvironment, possible activation of tumor-initiating cells remains a major concern in the application of stem cell-based therapies for patients with a bladder cancer history. To analyze the influence of adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) on bladder cancer cells with stem cell-like properties, we isolated CD133-positive bladder cancer cells and cultured them in conditioned medium from ASCs (ASC-CM). Our results showed that parental 5637 and HB-CLS-1 cells showed induced clonogenic potential when cultured in ASC-CM. Soluble mediators secreted by ASCs increased proliferation and viability of unsorted cells as well as CD133+ and CD133− subpopulations. Furthermore, incubation with ASC-CM modulated activation of intracellular signaling pathways. Soluble mediators secreted by ASCs increased phosphorylation of AKT1/2/3 (1.4-fold, P < 0.05), ERK1/2 (1.6-fold, P < 0.02), and p70 S6K (1.4-fold) in CD133+ cells isolated from 5637 cell line. In turn, decreased phosphorylation of those three proteins involved in PI3K/Akt and MAPK signaling was observed in CD133+ cells isolated from HB-CLS-1 cell line. Our results revealed that bladder cancer stem-like cells are responsive to signals from ASCs. Paracrine factors secreted by locally-delivered ASCs may, therefore, contribute to the modulation of signaling pathways involved in cancer progression, metastasis, and drug resistance. 相似文献

Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) are a type of mesenchymal stem cells isolated from adipose tissue and have the ability to differentiate into adipogenic, osteogenic, and chondrogenic lineages. Despite their great therapeutic potentials, previous studies showed that ADSCs could enhance the proliferation and metastatic potential of breast cancer cells (BCCs). In this study, we found that ADSCs fused with BCCs spontaneously, while breast cancer stem cell (CSC) markers CD44+CD24-/lowEpCAM+ were enriched in this fusion population. We further assessed the fusion hybrid by multicolor DNA FISH and mouse xenograft assays. Only single nucleus was observed in the fusion hybrid, confirming that it was a synkaryon. In vivo mouse xenograft assay indicated that the tumorigenic potential of the fusion hybrid was significantly higher than that of the parent tumorigenic triple-negative BCC line MDA-MB-231. We had compared the fusion efficiency between two BCC lines, the CD44-rich MDA-MB-231 and the CD44-poor MCF-7, with ADSCs. Interestingly, we found that the fusion efficiency was much higher between MDA-MB-231 and ADSCs, suggesting that a potential mechanism of cell fusion may lie in the dissimilarity between these two cell lines. The cell fusion efficiency was hampered by knocking down the CD44. Altogether, our findings suggest that CD44-mediated cell fusion could be a potential mechanism for generating CSCs. 相似文献

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) can control cancer and cancer stem cells (CSCs), and this topic has drawn immense attention recently. Stem cells are a tiny population of a bulk of tumor cells that have enormous potential in expansion and metastasis of the tumor. miRNA have a crucial role in the management of the function of stem cells. This role is to either promote or suppress the tumor. In this review, we investigated the function and different characteristics of CSCs and function of the miRNAs that are related to them. We also demonstrated the role and efficacy of these miRNAs in breast cancer and breast cancer stem cells (BCSC). Eventually, we revealed the metastasis, tumor formation, and their role in the apoptosis process. Also, the therapeutic potential of miRNA as an effective method for the treatment of BCSC was described. Extensive research is required to investigate the employment or suppression of these miRNAs for therapeutics approached in different cancers in the future. 相似文献

Recent experimental evidence indicates that many solid cancers have a hierarchical organization structure with a subpopulation of cancer stem cells (CSCs). The ability to identify CSCs prospectively now allows for testing the responses of CSCs to treatment modalities like radiation therapy. Initial studies have found CSCs in glioma and breast cancer relatively resistant to ionizing radiation and possible mechanisms behind this resistance have been explored. This review summarizes the landmark publications in this young field with an emphasis on the radiation responses of CSCs. The existence of CSCs in solid cancers place restrictions on the interpretation of many radiobiological observations, while explaining others. The fact that these cells may be a relatively quiescent subpopulation that are metabolically distinct from the other cells in the tumor has implications for both imaging and therapy of cancer. This is particularly true for biological targeting of cancer for enhanced radiotherapeutic benefit, which must consider whether the unique properties of this subpopulation allow it to avoid such therapies.
