Article / Publication Details Abstract

Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are predisposed to aneuploidy through continual passages. Some reports indicate more sensitivity of aneuploid hESCs cells to anticancer drugs. The present study was designed to investigate the cytotoxicity of three anticancer drugs (including bortezomib, paclitaxel and lapatinib) and their effect on aneuploidy rate in hESCs. To create a low-level mosaic cell line, normal hESCs (80%) and trisomic hESCs for chromosomes 12 and 17 (20%) were mixed. The effect of the 3 mentioned anticancer drugs on the chromosomal status was assessed by metaphase spread analysis after selection of the nontoxic conditions. Expression of pluripotency genes was analyzed and an alkaline phosphatase test was performed to assess pluripotency preservation. Our data showed that treatment with bortezomib, paclitaxel and lapatinib was nontoxic at 0.01, 0.01, and 0.2μM concentrations, respectively. Alkaline phosphatase and pluripotency gene expression analyses revealed maintenance of pluripotency following treatment with above-noted nontoxic concentrations. Aneuploid cells were dominant in treated and control groups with a minimum abundance of 70%, with no significant differences between groups. Drug treatments had no negative effect on pluripotency. Insensitivity of aneuploid cells in treatment groups could be related to the specific characteristics of each cell line in response to the drug and the proliferative superiority of cells with trisomies 12 and 17.
