Analysis of the safety of mesenchymal stromal cells secretome for glioblastoma treatment

hADSC CM neither induced an enrichment of CSCs in U87 cells population nor interfered in the response to TMZ in culture. Nevertheless, paracrine factors released by hADSCs were able to modulate glioblastoma cells migration. These findings provide novel information regarding the safety of using hADSCs against cancer and highlight the importance of considering hADSC-tumor cells interactions in tumor microenvironment in the design of novel cell therapies.
