| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the present study, we tried to develop tumor-targeting cell therapeutics for cancer therapy using mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), which have a tumor-homing ability. We selected an avidin-biotin complex (ABC) method and a gene transfection method to functionalize mouse mesenchymal stem cell line C3H10T1/2 cells. We revealed the ABC method could modify C3H10T1/2 cells with Nanoluc luciferase, a reporter protein, for at least 14 days without significant changes in the characteristics of C3H10T1/2 cells. The ABC method was also used to develop doxorubicin-containing liposome-modified C3H10T1/2 cells. Moreover, interferon gamma-releasing C3H10T1/2 cells were established by the gene transfection method. These cells showed an excellent anti-tumor effects. These functionalized MSCs will be useful for cell-based cancer therapy.
