BACKGROUND/AIM: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of extracellular vesicles derived from canine M1-polarized macrophages (M1EVs) on canine tumor cells, such as D17 (osteosarcoma cells) and LMeC (melanoma cells).
Protein expression was determined by western blot analysis. Gene expression was determined by RT-qPCR. In addition, cell apoptosis was analyzed by Annexin V/PI staining.
In the case of M1EV, the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β were increased, and nitrate/nitrite levels were also increased. M1EV induced apoptosis of tumor cells by increasing caspase-3 and caspase-7 activation. In addition, M1EVs decreased expression of CCR4, Foxp3 and CTLA-4 in canine peripheral mononuclear cells cocultured with tumor cells.
M1EV could be an effective anti-cancer therapeutic approach in melanoma and osteosarcoma and M1EVs can be used as immunomodulators in the tumor microenvironment for cancer treatment.
背景/目的:本研究旨在评估犬M1极化巨噬细胞来源的细胞外囊泡(M1EVs)对犬肿瘤细胞(如D17骨肉瘤细胞和LMeC黑色素瘤细胞)的影响。
通过蛋白质印迹分析确定蛋白质表达。通过RT-qPCR确定基因表达。此外,通过Annexin V/PI染色分析细胞凋亡。
在M1EV的情况下,TNF-α、IL-6和IL-1β等促炎细胞因子水平升高,硝酸盐/亚硝酸盐水平也升高。M1EV通过增加caspase-3和caspase-7的激活诱导肿瘤细胞凋亡。此外,M1EVs降低了与肿瘤细胞共培养的犬外周血单个核细胞中CCR4、Foxp3和CTLA-4的表达。
M1EV可能是黑色素瘤和骨肉瘤的一种有效的抗癌治疗方法,并且M1EVs可作为肿瘤微环境中的免疫调节剂用于癌症治疗。
