Abstract (original English)
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) from various sources exhibit different potential for stemness and therapeutic abilities. Recently, we reported a unique MSCs from human palatine tonsil (TMSCs) and their superior proliferation capacity compared to MSCs from other sources. However, unique characteristics of each MSC are not yet precisely elucidated. We investigated the role of stanniocalcin-1 (STC1), an anti-oxidative hormone, in the functions of TMSCs. We found that STC1 was highly expressed in TMSC compared with MSCs from bone marrow or adipose tissue. The proliferation, senescence and differentiation of TMSCs were assessed after the inhibition of STC1 expression. STC1 inhibition resulted in a significant decrease in the proliferation of TMSCs and did not affect the differentiation potential. To reveal the anti-oxidative ability of STC1 in TMSCs themselves or against other cell types, the generation of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) in TMSC or ROS-mediated production of interleukin (IL)-1β from macrophage-like cells were detected. Interestingly, the basal level of ROS generation in TMSCs was significantly elevated after STC1 inhibition. Moreover, down-regulation of STC1 impaired the inhibitory effect of TMSCs on IL-1β production in macrophages. Taken together, these findings indicate that STC1 is highly expressed in TMSCs and plays a critical role in proliferating
