摘要
目的了解在人乳腺癌细胞系MCF-7中是否存在乳腺癌干细胞。方法采用流式细胞技术对MCF-7细胞进行分选,检测MCF-7中不同亚群细胞的体外克隆形成能力和体内成瘤能力。结果MCF-7中有部分细胞具有体外克隆形成能力和体内成瘤能力,而且和CD44+CD24+细胞相比,CD44+CD24-细胞中成瘤细胞的含量更高。结论MCF-7中存在乳腺癌干细胞,并主要集中于CD44+CD24-细胞中,CD44+CD24+细胞也可能是乳腺癌祖细胞。
Objective To investigate whether there are cancer stem cells in the MCF-7 human breast cancer cell line.Methods Flow cytometry was applied to separate different subpopulation cells from MCF-7 cells,and their ability of clone in vitro and reconstruction tumor in vivo were determined.Results The ability of clone in vitro and reconstruction tumor in vivo were observed in some MCF-7 cells.Contrast with CD44^+CD24^+ cells,the proportion of tumorigenic cancer cells in CD44^+CD24^-cells is higher.Conclusion Breast cancer stem cell exists in MCF-7 and it mainly locates the subpopulation of CD44^+CD24^-cells,CD44^+CD24^+ cell possibly is breast cancer progenitor cell.
