Vesículas extracelulares
Abstract in Portuguese
As células que compõem o tumor podem interagir entre si, através da liberação e incorporação de vesículas extracelulares, muitas vezes contribuindo para a progressão tumoral. Dessa maneira, o presente trabalho teve como objetivo observar se as vesículas extracelulares , como as microvesículas e os exossomas liberados pelas células cancerosas em condições de estresse celular, após quimioterapia e indução de hipóxia conferem alguma vantagem adaptativa às células tumorais. Nossos resultados mostram que vesículas liberadas por células de melanoma humano em hipóxia ou normóxia apresentam tamanho médio característico de exossomos e microvesículas e não modulam os processos de proliferação, morte e migração celular. As vesículas liberadas pelas células após tratamento com o quimioterápico temozolamida também apresentam tamanho característico de exossomos e microvesículas; em adição, o tratamento com a temozolamida induziu um aumento na secreção dessas vesículas pelas células de melanoma. A incubação das células tumorais com vesículas oriundas da terapêutica com a temozolamida aumentou a proliferação celular, conferindo vantagem proliferativa às células de melanoma humano

Abstract in English
Tumor cells can interact with each other by releasing and incorporating extracellular vesicles, contributing to tumor progression. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate if extracellular vesicles, such as microvesicles and exossomes, released by cancer cells under cell stress conditions like chemotherapy and hypoxia, induce an adaptive advantage to tumor cells. Our results show that vesicles shed by human melanoma cells under hypoxia, or normoxia exhibit the characteristic size of exossomes and microvesicles and do not modulate cell proliferation, death or migration. The vesicles released by melanoma cells after temozolomide treatment also showed the average size of exossomes and microvesicles; moreover, temozolomide treatment induced an increase in extracellular vesicles shedding by tumor cells. Incubation of tumor cells with vesicles released under temozolamide therapeutics caused an increase in cell proliferation, providing a proliferative advantage to human melanoma cells
