Mesenchymal Stem Cell-Based Therapy: Targeting Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

Heather A. Domby, Vincent S. Gallicchio.

Abstract
Across the globe, breast cancer (BC) is the most frequently identified cancer in women, with approximately 1.7 million new cases diagnosed annually. Despite current advances in cancer treatment and detection technology, breast cancer stem cells (bCSCs) within the tumor microenvironment have contributed to the rise in chemotherapy drug resistance and tumor relapse. As a result, BC remains a considerable public health threat and is of utmost importance to biomedical research. The emergence of cell-based therapies has provided promising potential in terms of clinical application, especially regarding tumor heterogeneity. Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-based therapy has been an attractive area of research due to the self-renewal and differentiation capabilities of MSCs. On the other hand, the use of MSCs in cancer treatment and human clinical trials is restricted by contradictory results in preclinical investigations. This review summarizes the unique attributes of MSCs and their mechanistic potential in targeting triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). It addresses preclinical risk factors associated with MSC-based therapy and future direction to improve therapeutic utility.
