Abstract
Bone sarcomas are rare tumour entities that arise from the mesenchyme most of which are highly heterogeneous at the cellular, genetic and epigenetic levels. The three main types are osteosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma, and chondrosarcoma. These oncological entities are characterised by high morbidity and mortality and an absence of significant therapeutic improvement in the last four decades. In the field of oncology, in vitro cultures of cancer cells have been extensively used for drug screening unfortunately with limited success. Indeed, despite the massive knowledge acquired from conventional 2D culture methods, scientific community has been challenged by the loss of efficacy of drugs when moved to clinical trials. The recent explosion of new 3D culture methods is paving the way to more relevant in vitro models mimicking the in vivo tumour environment (e.g. bone structure) with biological responses close to the in vivo context. The present review gives a brief overview of the latest advances of the 3D culture methods used for studying primary bone sarcomas.

Intracellular ROS mediates gas plasma-facilitated cellular transfection in 2D and 3D cultures. Sci Rep 2016; 6:27872. [PMID: 27296089 PMCID: PMC4906281 DOI: 10.1038/srep27872] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2015] [Accepted: 05/26/2016] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
This study reports the potential of cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) as a versatile tool
for delivering oligonucleotides into mammalian cells. Compared to lipofection and
electroporation methods, plasma transfection showed a better uptake efficiency and
less cell death in the transfection of oligonucleotides. We demonstrated that the
level of extracellular aqueous reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by gas plasma
is correlated with the uptake efficiency and that this is achieved through an
increase of intracellular ROS levels and the resulting increase in cell membrane
permeability. This finding was supported by the use of ROS scavengers, which reduced
CAP-based uptake efficiency. In addition, we found that cold atmospheric plasma
could transfer oligonucleotides such as siRNA and miRNA into cells even in 3D
cultures, thus suggesting the potential for unique applications of CAP beyond those
provided by standard transfection techniques. Together, our results suggest that
cold plasma might provide an efficient technique for the delivery of siRNA and miRNA
in 2D and 3D culture models.
