Abstract: | AIM:To investigate the interaction between human Burkitt lymphoma cell line Raji and human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSC). METHODS:The direct and indirect effects of MSC on Raji cells were investigated. The viability of Raji cells was tested by CCK-8 assay, and the cell cycle was determined by flow cytometry. The importance of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the migration of MSC to Raji cells was analyzed by blocking VEGF expression in Raji cells with small interfering RNA (siRNA). VEGF level in the supernatant was detected by ELISA, and the mRNA expression of VEGF was measured by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). RESULTS:Both MSC and MSC-conditioned medium (MSC-CM) promoted the growth of Raji cells. The viability of Raji cells co-cultured with MSC-CM was 0.99±0.05 at 72 h, and that in control group was 0.71±0.07. Both direct co-culture with MSC and MSC-CM turned the Raji cells from G0/G1 phase to S phase. The number of Raji cells co-cultured with MSC-CM in S phase was increased from 16.33±1.37 to 28.50±1.41, and the number in G0/G1 phase was decreased from 77.70±1.57 to 54.40±1.57. The expression of VEGF was down-regulated either at mRNA or protein level after transfection with siRNA. The ability of MSC migrated to Raji cells was significantly declined (96.00±5.28 vs 143.00±7.20). CONCLUSION:Raji cells recruit MSC by secreting VEGF, and MSC promote the proliferation of Raji cells by turning the cells from G0/G1 phase to S phase. |
