Abstract: Objective To study the effects of factors secreted by mouse embryonic stem cells (ESC) on the biological characteristics of prostate cancer cells RM-1 and to explore the mechanism. Methods A non-contact co-culture system was established with Transwell chambers in vitro. The chambers connecting ESC combined with mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF) and RM-1 cells served as experimental group, while the chambers connecting MEF and RM-1 cells were negative controls. After cells were co-cultured for 72 h, the proliferation of RM-1 cells in the two groups were measured. Differences of RM-1 cells in cell morphology, cell cycle, apoptotic level, migration and invasion ability between the two groups were observed. Results The RM-1 cells in experimental group were loosely arranged with less cell division and more cell death, and some cells showed signs of apoptosis. The RM-1 cells in experimental group proliferated more slowly (P<0.01), with cell cycle arrest between phase G1 and S in addition with increased apoptosis, especially late stage apoptosis (both P<0.01). The RM-1 cells in experimental group showed weaker migration and invasion ability (both P<0.05). Conclusion The factors secreted by ESC exhibited anti-tumor effects. They inhibited RM-1 cell proliferation by arresting cell cycle, increasing cell apoptosis, and weakening cell migration and invasion ability.
