Dkk-1 secreted by mesenchymal stem cells inhibits growth of breast cancer cells via depression of Wnt signalling

Qiao, Ling, Xu, Zhi-li, Zhao, Tie-jun, Ye, Li-hong, Zhang, Xiao-dong·2008·Cancer Letters

Abstract

We determined the molecular mechanism of inhibitory effect of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) on the growth of human MCF-7 breast cancer cells. Our finding showed that beta-catenin was down-regulated in MCF-7 cells by conditioned media from Z3 hMSCs, and the expression level of dickkopf-1 (Dkk-1) was higher in Z3 cells than that in MCF-7 cells. Neutralization of Dkk-1 and small interference RNA targeting Dkk-1 mRNA in Z3 cells attenuated the inhibitory effect of Z3 cells on MCF-7 cells. Overexpression of Dkk-1 in Z3 cells enhanced the inhibition. Therefore, Dkk-1 secreted by Z3 cells involves the inhibition via the Wnt pathway.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
