MSCs enhance apoptosis of target cells.

Molecules Mechanisms Effects Refs
miR-23b-5p By reversing the TRIM14-activated PI3K/AKT pathway Reduce the proliferation and induce apoptosis of acute myeloid leukemia cells [123]
miR-205 By inhibiting rhophilin Rho GTPase binding protein 2 Retard prostate cancer progression [124]
IFN-β By upregulating TRAIL expression Induce apoptosis of MDA cells [125]
Fas-L By Fas/Fas-L pathway Induce apoptosis of MM cells [126]
By downregulating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway Inhibit U251 cells proliferation and the EMT-like [127]
By altering cell cycle arrest and MMP7 signaling-triggered EMT Inhibit PDAC cell proliferation, tumor growth and invasion [128]
Inhibit proliferation rate and increase the apoptosis rate [129]
Decrease cell viability and increase apoptosis [130]
IDO Inhibit T-cell proliferation by inducing apoptosis of activated T cells [131]
PD-L1 Suppress the activation of CD4+ T cells, downregulate interleukin-2 secretion and induce irreversible hyporesponsiveness and cell death [132]
Fas-L Fas-regulated monocyte chemotactic protein 1 recruit T cells for Fas-L-mediated apoptosis [18, 133]
Through inhibiting TGF-β1 and Smad3 expression and increasing Smad7 protein expression Promote hepatic stellate cells apoptosis [134, 135]
Via the BATF2/JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway Facilitate relieve ankylosing spondylitis [136]
miR-26a Related to the TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway Inhibit the proliferation of high glucose-induced human skin fibroblasts cells, and promote cell apoptosis [137]
