Abstract

Lipofilling is an option for breast reconstruction after tumor resection to avoid the complications of an implant-based reconstruction. Although some concerns exist regarding the oncological safety of a tissue rich in mesenchymal stem cells with their proangiogenic and proliferation-supportive properties, there are also reports that adipose tissue-derived stem cells can exhibit antitumoral properties. We isolated primary adipose tissue-derived stem cells. Both conditioned medium and exosomes were harvested from the cell culture and used to treat the breast cancer cell line MCF-7. Cell viability, cytotoxicity, and gene expression of MCF-7 cells in response to the indirect co-culture were evaluated. MCF-7 cells incubated with exosomes from adipose tissue-derived stem cells show reduced cell viability in comparison to MCF-7 cells incubated with adipose-tissue derived stem cell-conditioned medium. Expression of proapoptotic genes was upregulated, expression of antiapoptotic genes was downregulated. The debate about the oncological safety of autologous fat grafting after tumor resection continues. Here, we show that exosomes from adipose tissue-derived stem cells exhibit some antitumoral properties on breast cancer cell line MCF-7.
