Abstract (original English)

Background Assisted lipotransfer for breast reconstruction involves the isolation and supplementation of adipose-derived stromal cells. This procedure has raised concerns regarding safety with respect to promotion of tumor growth and relapse. Several in vitro and animal experimental studies have indicated increased survival, growth, and invasive characteristics of breast cancer cells on interaction with adipose-derived stromal cells. These results seem to be in poor concordance with clinical observations of a low rate of cancer recurrences after assisted lipotransfer. Methods The authors investigated the effects of adipose-derived stromal cells and adipose-derived stromal cells differentiated into adipocytes and fibroblasts on five breast cancer cell lines (i.e., T47D, MCF-7, BT20, MDA-MB-231, and ZR-75-1) and MCF-10A, a nonmalignant counterpart. Results Conditioned media of adipose-derived stromal cells stimulated the proliferation of breast cancer cell lines depending on the individual adipose-derived stromal cell-breast cancer cell line combination. Conditioned media of adipose-derived stromal cells differentiated into adipocytes gave a lower response, and conditioned media of fibroblasts were also active. A putative cancer stem cell-like phenotype was not increased by adipose-derived stromal cell-conditioned media, no physical interaction of cancer cells with adipose-derive
