Umbilical cord-derived MSCs inhibit the proliferation of leukemic tumor cells through cell-to-cell contact. Tumor cells at 0.5 × 105 cells/well of 96-well plates were cultured in the presence or absence of UC-MSC at various ratios for 3 days. Cell viability and proliferation were assessed by MTS assay (Panel a) and 3H-TdR incorporation (Panel b) during the final 4 and 18 h of culture, respectively. The results represent the mean of at least four experiments ±SD. Panel (c) shows the tumor cells were cultured alone (Tumor cell), in direct contact with UC-MSC (Tumor+UC-MSCs), with UC-MSCs separated by Transwell (Transwell+Tumor) and in supernatant aspirated from UC-MSCs culture (SN+Tumor). Data show results from more than three independent experiments with mean ±SD. [*] statistically significant at p<0.05.
