Enriched cancer-associated-fibroblasts (CAFs) enhanced the resistance of gastric cancer cells to chemotherapy. Accumulated CAFs in the chemotherapy-resistant gastric tumor sites and facilitate the resistance to chemotherapy drugs in gastric cancer cells. (A) The percentage of the cancer-associated fibroblasts in samples from chemo-sensitive (CS) and chemo-resistance (CR) gastric cancer patients was detected by flow cytometry. (B) The expression of the cancer-associated fibroblasts in samples from CS and CR gastric cancer patients was detected by immunohistochemistry. (C-H) The cell viability of SGC7901was detected after treated by different concentration of DDP (C), doxorubicin (D), and etoposide (E) pre-co-cultured with or without CAFs by using MTT assay. The cell viability of BGC823 was detected after treated by different concentration of DDP (F), doxorubicin (G), and etoposide (H) pre-co-cultured with or without CAFs by using MTT assay. The data was presented as mean±standard error of mean from three independent experiments. ***p < 0.001.
