Exosomes derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells promote osteosarcoma development by activating oncogenic autophagy
Open accessAbstract
Osteosarcoma (OS) is a malignant bone tumor that frequently occurs in adolescents. It has a high rate of pulmonary metastasis and mortality. Previous studies have demonstrated that human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) can promote the malignant progression in various tumors, including OS. Also, it is recognized that exosomes derived from hBMSCs (hBMSC-Exos) mediate cell-to-cell communication and exhibit similar effects on the development of various tumors. However, the role of hBMSC-Exos in the development of OS is still unclear and the underlying mechanism needs to be elucidated. Our results show that hBMSC-derived exosomes promote OS cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Meanwhile, silencing autophagy-related gene 5 (ATG5) in OS cells abolishes the pro-tumor effects of hBMSC-Exos in vitro and in vivo. Our present study demonstrates that hBMSC-Exos promotes tumorigenesis and metastasis by promoting oncogenic autophagy in OS.

Silencing autophagy-related gene 5 in OS cells eliminates the pro-tumor influence of BM-MSC exosomes both in vivo and in vitro.
“However, if the autophagy-related gene 5 is silenced in OS cells, it eliminates the pro-tumor influence of BM-MSC exosomes both in vivo and in vitro [122].”

The Results report that ATG5 silencing abolished the exosome-induced effects on OS-cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro, and reduced tumor growth and lung metastasis in vivo. But the Discussion explicitly says siATG5 did not totally abolish exosome-mediated tumorigenesis. Thus, “eliminates” overstates the in vivo finding and the paper’s overall conclusion.

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredBM-MSC-derived exosomes may boost osteosarcoma development by promoting oncogenic autophagy in nude mice.
“Also, BM-MSC-derived exosomes may boost osteosarcoma development by promoting oncogenic autophagy in nude mice [122].”

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.
