"Pertumbuhan kanker tidak hanya ditentukan oleh adanya sel kanker itu sendiri akan tetapi ditentukan juga oleh lingkungan mikro disekitarnya. Lingkungan mikro tersebut merupakan jaringan yang heterogen dengan adanya interaksi sel termasuk sel punca mesenkim. Sekretom mengandung faktor-faktor biologis terlarut yang dapat mempengaruhi pertumbuhan sel kanker. Stem cell from Human Exfoliated Deciduous SHED diketahui merupakan sumber sel punca yang memiliki banyak potensi. Sampai saat ini belum diketahui bagaimana dampak pemberian CM dari SHED terhadap sel punca kanker payudara. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pemberian conditioned medium kultur SHED pada sel punca kanker payudara terhadap viablitas, proliferasi dan tumorigenitas serta kepuncaan dari sel punca kanker payudaraALDH dan sel punca kanker MCF7. Conditioned medium SHED SHED-CM adalah medium kultur bebas serum sel SHED yang dikumpulkan dalam 24 jam dan 48 jam. ALDH dan MCF7diberikan 50 v/v SHED-CM 24 jam dan 48 jam dan di inkubasi selama 72 jam. Hal yang sama dilakukan untukperlakuan aktivasi CM dengan suhu. CM sebelum digunakan terlebih dahulu dipanaskan dalam suhu 80 C selama 10 menit. Kontrol adalah sel yang diberikan 50 v/v a-MEM. Perhitungan viabilitas sel dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode Trypan Blue Exclusion Assay dan ekspresi relatif mRNA dari TGF-b1, TGF-b1 receptor TBRI, ALDH1A1 dan OCT4 menggunakan qRT-PCR dan analisis menggunakan perhitungan livak. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ekspresi relatif dari TGF-b1, TGF-b1 reseptor TBRI, ALDH1A1 dan OCT4 pada sel ALDH dan MCF7 pasca induksi dengan CM SHED mengalami peningkatan yang signifikan dibandingkan dengan kontrol. Selain itu, peningkatan yang lebih signifikan ditunjukkan pada perlakuan aktivasi dibandingkan yang tidak diaktivasi. Hal yang berbeda pada hasil uji viabilitas sel. Viabilitas sel mengalami penurunan pasca induksi dengan CM SHED sedangkan setelah diinduksi dengan CM SHED yang telah diaktivasi, viabilitas sel mengalami peningkatan yang signifikan pada sel ALDH dan MCF7. Dengan demikian sekretom SHED dapat meningkatkan viabilitas dan proliferasi serta kemampuan kepuncaan dari ALDH dan MCF7.

Cancer development is not only determined by corresponding of cancer cells but also by the microenvironment. This includes a heterogen network of interacting cell include mesenchymal stem cells. Conditioned medium of MSC culture containing soluble factor hes been identified to affect intercellular communicating between MSC and cancer cells which could affect the stemness of cancer cells. Many studies reported that Stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth SHED as a novel stem cell source with multipotent potential. However, the effect of MSC interaction with cancer cells can not be clearly understood so that the effects of safety in its utilization are not yet known for certain. This study is to confirm the relation between secretom of MSC from SHED with the stemness and agresiveness of ALDH and MCF7. SHED conditioned medium SHED CM, SHED were grown in serum free a MEM for 24 and 48 hours, consist of two groups, non heated and heated at 80 C for 10 min. Human BCSCs ALDH cultured in DMEM F12 were supplemented with 50 v v CM SHED 24 h and 48 h, as well as with heated by 72 h incubation. Control was BCSCs supplemented with 50 v v a MEM. We measured the viability with trypan blue assay and mRNA expression of TGF b1, TGF b1 receptor TBRI, as well as stemness genes ALDH1A1 and OCT4 using qRT PCR. The relative mRNA expression levels of TGF b1, T RI, OCT4 and ALDH1A1 in BCSCs supplemented with non heated SHED CM were increased compared to their control and also after TGF b1 heat activation was significantly higher than in non heated SHED CM. In the other hand, the viability cell was significantly reduced after supplemented with non heated SHED CM, but increased higher than control when treated with heated SHED CM, there are may be a role of the TGF b1 signaling involvement of other factors in SHED CM affect cell proliferation and increase the stemness. We found that secretomes SHED can increase proliferation of breast cancer stem cells ALDH and also expression of stemness gene OCT4 and ALDH1A1. the activation with heated can enhance the increase of proliferation and stemness. We assumed that signalling of TGF can affect tumor proggresion of ALDH and MCF7"

"Latar Belakang: Uji tube formation merupakan uji paling luas yang digunakan sebagai uji vaskulogenesis/ angiogenesis secara in vitro. Sel punca mesenkimal atau mesenchymal stem cell MSC merupakan sel punca dewasa yang multipoten. Efek parakrinnya terhadap neovaskularisasi sudah banyak diketahui. Secara umum MSC diketahui tidak mengekspresikan penanda permukaan hematopoetik CD34 namun ada pendapat yang menyatakan bahwa MSC secara in vivo mengekspresikan CD34 dan kehilangan ekspresinya saat dikultur secara in vitro. MSC asal lemak dianggap masih memiliki ekspresi CD34 pada kultur in vitro pada pasase awal oleh beberapa ahli. MSC yang paling banyak digunakan dalam uji tube formation adalah BM-MSC padahal ASC juga berpotensi bagi terapi dan rekayasa sel punca. Hingga saat ini potensi vaskulogenesis antara ASC dan BM-MSC masih belum jelas mana yang lebih baik dan apakah ekspresi CD34 mempengaruhi hal ini. Pada penelitian ini kami ingin membandingkan potensi vaskulogenesis antara MSC asal lipoaspirat dengan MSC asal sumsum tulang melalui uji tube formation dan ekspresi CD34. Hasil: Pengukuran kualitas vaskulogenesis menunjukkan bahwa rerata panjang tube lebih tinggi pada BM-MSC, rerata jumlah loop lebih banyak pada BM-MSC dan rerata jumlah titik percabangan lebih banyak pada BM-MSC. Tidak ditemukan kadar CD34 yang tinggi pada ASC. Kesimpulan: BM-MSC memiliki kemampuan lebih baik dalam membentuk tube formation dibandingkan dengan ASC. Tidak ditemukan hubungan antara kadar CD34 dengan kemampuan vaskulogenesis MSC.

Objective: Test tube formation is the most widely used method as an in vitro vasculogenesis test. Mesenchymal stem cells MSC is a multipotent adult cells known not expressing CD34 just like endothelial progenitor cells EPC that play a role in vasculogenesis. Adipose derived stem cells MSCs ASC is considered to still express CD34 2 in cultures. Bone Marrow BM MSCs is most widely used MSCs in vasculogensis research. ASC has great potential for stem cell therapy and engineering. The potential of vasculogenesis between ASC and BM MSC remains unclear which one is better and whether CD34 expression affects this. In this study we wanted to compare the potential of vasculogenesis between MSC of lipoaspiric origin and MSC from bone marrow through tube formation test and CD34 expression. Tube formation assay is the most widely used method as an in vitro vasculogenesis test. Mesenchymal stem cells MSCs are multipotent adult cells. known not to express CD34 surface marker which is expressed by haemapoietic stem cells, but according to some experts bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells BM MSCs express CD34 in vivo and lose its expression when they are cultured in vitro, while adipose derived stem cells ASCs still have CD34 expression in the early passages when cultured in vitro. BM MSCs are the most widely used MSC, but ASCs are also used in stem cell therapy and tissue engineering for angiogenesis purposes. Until now the potential of vasculogenesis between ASCs and BM MSCs is still unclear. Expression of CD34 is also unknown whether effecting the quality of tube formation. In this study we wanted to compare the potential of vasculogenesis between ASC and BM MSCs through tube formation test and CD34 expression.

Results: Measurements of vasculogenesis quality showed higher tube length, number of loops and mean number of branch points on BM MSC. Both BM MSCs and ASCs showed low CD34 levels.

Conclusion: BM MSCs showed better tube formation ability compared with ASCs. No association was found between CD34 levels and MSC vasculogenesis capability. "

Background: Cleft lip and palate (CLP) occurs due to the failure of fusion of the frontal and maxillary process that results in a cleft that extends to the lip, alveoli, nose floor, and hard and soft palate. One of the potentially alternative treatment for CLP cases is tissue engineering technique using Mesenchymal Stromal Cell (MSC). MSC can be found in dental pulp stromal cells (DPSC). Osteogenic ability can be seen through the detection of osteogenic markers such as osteopontin (OPN). Osteopontin is one of the main markers of osteogenic differentiation produced by osteoblast in the process of bone formation and mineralization. Osteopontin is expressed by preosteoblasts in early bone formation and mature osteoblasts at bone remodelling sites. Osteopontin expression as one of osteogenic markers in cleft lip and palate patients is unknown. This study was conducted to determine the ability of osteogenic differentiation through the expression of osteopontin in cleft lip and palate patients. Objective: To compare osteogenic differentiation ability of mesenchymal stromal cells in cleft lip and palate patients and normal subject through the expression of osteogenic marker osteopontin. Methods: RNA sample that was obtained through RNA extraction from dental pulp stromal cells of cleft and lip palate patients and normal subjects were tested with Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) using osteopontin and 18S as housekeeping gene. Results: There was no difference between the relative expression of OPN gene in DPSC from normal subject and cleft lip and palate patients. Conclusion: Osteogenic differentiation ability of dental pulp stromal cells from cleft lip and palate patients is equivalent with dental pulp stromal cells from normal subjects."
