Comparison of the therapeutic effects between stem cells and exosomes in primary ovarian insufficiency: As promising as cells but different persistency and dosage.

ABSTRACT: Primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) refers to the loss of ovarian function under the age of 40 and results in amenorrhea and infertility. Our previous studies have shown that transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and MSC-derived exosomes in chemotherapy-induced POI mouse ovaries can reverse the POI and eventually achieve pregnancy. Based on our recent studies, MSC-derived exosomes have almost equal therapeutic potentials as transplanted MSCs. However, it is still unclear whether exosomes can completely replace MSCs in POI treatment. In this study, we induced POI in C57/BL6 mice by chemotherapy (CXT) using a standard protocol. We compared the RNA expression pattern in ovarian tissue after MSC or exosome treatment. our data suggest that a minimal 10-fold increase, and ideally 100-fold increase, in the exosome concentration is required to generate more analogous results to MSC treatment.

Project description:Carcinoma-associated mesenchymal stem cells (CA-MSCs) are critical stromal progenitor cells within the tumor microenvironment. We previously demonstrated that CA-MSCs differentially express BMP genes, promote tumor cell growth, increase cancer ‘stemness’ and chemotherapy resistance. Here we use RNA sequencing of normal omental MSCs and ovarian CA-MSCs to demonstrate CA-MSCs have global changes in gene expression. Using these expression profiles we create a unique predictive algorithm to classify CA-MSCs. Our classifier, accurately distinguishes normal omental, ovary and bone marrow MSCs from ovarian cancer CA-MSCs. Suggesting broad applicability, the model correctly classifies pancreatic and endometrial cancer CA-MSCs and distinguishes cancer associated fibroblasts (CAFs) from CA-MSCs. Using this classifier, we definitively demonstrate ovarian CA-MSCs arise from tumor mediated reprograming of local tissue MSCs. While cancer cells alone cannot induce a CA-MSC phenotype, the in vivo ovarian tumor micoenvironment (TME) can reprogram omental or ovary MSCs to protumorigenic CA-MSC (classifier score of >0.96). In vitro studies suggest that both tumor secreted factors and hypoxia are critical to induce the CA-MSC phenotype. Interestingly, while the breast cancer TME can reprogram BM MSCs into CA-MSCs, the ovarian TME cannot, demonstrating for the first time that tumor mediated CA-MSC conversion is tissue and cancer type dependent. Together these findings (1) provide a critical tool to define CA-MSCs and (2) highlight cancer cell influence on distinct normal tissues providing powerful insights into the mechanisms underlying cancer specific metastatic niche formation.
