title: Expression profile of IL-8 and growth factors in breast cancer cells and adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) isolated from breast carcinoma.
abstract: Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) are regarded as a major player of breast cancer microenvironment. By production of various growth factors and expression of regulatory molecules, it is postulated that ASCs protect breast cancer cells from the host immune responses. In this study, the expressions of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), CXCL8 (IL-8) in breast cancer cells and adipose-derived stem cells isolated from breast tissue of women with breast cancer were investigated. The results were analyzed comparatively in normal ASCs isolated from healthy normal women. In case of breast cancer tissues, results were analyzed between high stage and low stage patients. The expressions of extracted mRNAs were determined using real-time quantitative RT-PCR. As a result, in breast cancer tissues, IGF-1 and IL-8 mRNAs had 28.6 and 56-fold more expressions in high stage compared to low stage patients. In ASCs, relative quantifications (RQ) of VEGF, IL-8, HGF and IGF-1 was about 2-fold higher in patients than controls. Data of this study conclude that presence of resident ASCs within the scaffold of breast tissue may support breast tumor growth and progression through the expressions of tumor promoting factors.
