We studied the effect of mesenchymal stem cells from the bone marrow and adipose tissue on the growth rate of melanoma B16 and mammary adenocarcinoma Ca755 tumors after their co-administration with tumor cells to syngeneic mice. Stimulation of tumor growth and formation of melanoma metastases in the lungs was found under the influence of adipose tissue-derived, but not bone marrow-derived stem cells. At delayed terms after irradiation in sublethal doses, the adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells also stimulated the tumor growth. Stimulation of the tumor growth by adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells was caused by factors secreted by these cells. Transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells to humans is possible only after accurate exclusion of malignant tumors.
