Abstract (original English)

Human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells expressing the secreted form of the tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (hAT-MSC.sTRAIL) have demonstrated therapeutic activity against various tumors in preclinical studies. However, the limited expression of TRAIL death receptors remains a challenge. We evaluated the therapeutic efficacy of panobinostat in enhancing the sensitivity of hAT-MSC.sTRAIL-mediated apoptosis in malignant glioma. Panobinostat effectively inhibited all malignant glioma cells (IC 50 , 0.03-0.23 μM), enhancing the expression of DRs, but not in hAT-MSCs. Combined treatment with hAT-MSC.sTRAIL and panobinostat significantly suppressed cell viability and enhanced apoptosis. In a diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) mouse model, the combined treatment induced decreases in tumor volume and prolonged survival. Our study demonstrates that panobinostat enhances the expression of TRAIL DRs and potentiates the anti-cancer effects of hAT-MSC.sTRAIL.
