Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Our previous study showed that human omental adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) promote ovarian cancer growth and metastasis. In this study, the role of autophagy in the ovarian cancer-promoting effects of omental ADSCs was further determined. METHODS:The growth and invasion of ovarian cancer cells were detected by CCK-8 and Transwell assays, respectively. The autophagy of ovarian cancer cells transfected with MRFP-GFP-LC3 adenoviral vectors was evaluated by confocal microscopy and western blot assay. Transfection of STAT3 siRNA was used to inhibit the expression of STAT3. RESULTS:Our results show that autophagy plays a vital role in ovarian cancer and is promoted by ADSCs. Specifically, we show that proliferation and invasion are correlated with autophagy induction by ADSCs in two ovarian cancer cell lines under hypoxic conditions. Mechanistically, ADSCs activate the STAT3 signalling pathway, thereby promoting autophagy. Knockdown of STAT3 expression using siRNA decreased hypoxia-induced autophagy and decreased the proliferation and metastasis of ovarian cancer cells. CONCLUSION:Taken together, our data indicate that STAT3-mediated autophagy induced by ADSCs promotes ovarian cancer growth and metastasis.
