Human carcinoma-associated fibroblasts (CAF): co-culture with cancer cells vs. CAF only

ABSTRACT: Gene expression profiling of CAF co-cultured with human oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cells compared with mono-cultured CAF. To identify key molecular regulators expressed by carcinoma-associated fibroblasts (CAF) that promote cancer cell invasion, microarrays were performed by comparing co-cultured OSCC cells and CAF with monoculture controls. comparison 1: CAF co-cultured with OSCC vs. mono-cultured CAF comparison 2: OSCC co-cultured with CAF vs. mono-cultured OSCC 1.7X10(5) YD-10B OSCC cells and 1.7X10(5) CAF were seeded in the upper chamber and lower chamber, respectively, of 6-transwell plates containing collagen-coated 1 micrometer pore transmembrane filters (Becton Dickinson, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA). Monoculture control samples were generated by culturing only CAF or OSCC on
