Abstract (original English)

This study aimed to confirm whether human omental adipose-derived stem cells (O-ASC) from donors with varying body mass index (BMI, calculated in kg/m 2 ) exert different effects on proliferation and migration of endometrial cancer (EC) cells. Omental adipose-derived stem cells were isolated from the omental adipose tissues of eight patients who were diagnosed with EC aged from 35 to 56 years. According to the patients' BMI, the O-ASC was divided into two groups: obesity group (BMI ≥ 30) and normal group (18.5 < BMI ≤ 24.9). A broad spectrum cytokine antibody array was used to measure 62 paracrine cytokines secreted by all the O-ASC. MTS assays, direct and indirect co-culture assays were used to assess the effects of O-ASC on proliferation and migration of Hec-1A (estrogen receptor-/progesterone receptor-) and Ishikawa (estrogen receptor+/progesterone receptor+) EC cells. Eight samples of O-ASC were successfully isolated including four samples in obesity group and four in normal group. All the O-ASC displayed typical characteristics of mesenchymal stem cells and possessed similar secretory functions as 26 cytokines were identified in condition medium of O-ASC based on cytokine antibody array. The proliferation of Ishikawa cells was gently stimulated by O-ASC from the two groups (P < 0.05) whereas without any effects on Hec-1A cells. Both horizontal and vertical migrations of EC
