Abstract
Among multiple hemostasis components, platelets hyperactivity plays major roles in cancer progression by providing surface and internal components for intercellular crosstalk as well as by behaving like immune cells. Since platelets participate and regulate immunity in homeostatic and disease states, we assumed that revealing platelets profile might help in conceiving novel anti-cancer immune-based strategies. The goal of this review is to compile and discuss the most recent reports on the nature of cancer-associated platelets and their interference with immunotherapy. An increasing number of studies have emphasized active communication between cancer cells and platelets, with platelets promoting cancer cell survival, growth, and metastasis. The anti-cancer potential of platelet-directed therapy has been intensively investigated, and anti-platelet agents may prevent cancer progression and improve the survival of cancer patients. Platelets can (i) reduce antitumor activity; (ii) support immunoregulatory cells and factors generation; (iii) underpin metastasis and, (iv) interfere with immunotherapy by expressing ligands of immune checkpoint receptors. Mediators produced by tumor cell-induced platelet activation support vein thrombosis, constrain anti-tumor T- and natural killer cell response, while contributing to extravasation of tumor cells, metastatic potential, and neovascularization within the tumor. Recent studies showed that attenuation of immunothrombosis, modulation of platelets and their factors have a good perspective in immunotherapy optimization. Particularly, blockade of intra-tumoral platelet-associated programmed death-ligand 1 might promote anti-tumor T cell-induced cytotoxicity. Collectively, these findings suggest that platelets might represent the source of relevant cancer staging biomarkers, as well as promising targets and carriers in immunotherapeutic approaches for combating cancer.

Abstract
Periodontitis (PD) is a degenerative, bacteria-induced chronic disease of periodontium causing bone resorption and teeth loss. It includes a strong reaction of immune cells through the secretion of proinflammatory factors such as Interleukin-17 (IL-17). PD treatment may consider systemic oral antibiotics application, including doxycycline (Dox), exhibiting antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties along with supportive activity in wound healing, thus affecting alveolar bone metabolism. In the present study, we aimed to determine whether Dox can affect the regenerative potential of periodontal ligament mesenchymal stem cells (PDLSCs) modulated by IL-17 in terms of cell migration, osteogenic potential, bioenergetics and expression of extracellular matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2). Our findings indicate that Dox reduces the stimulatory effect of IL-17 on migration and MMP-2 expression in PDLSCs. Furthermore, Dox stimulates osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs, annulling the inhibitory effect of IL-17 on PDLSCs osteogenesis. In addition, analyses of mitochondrial respiration reveal that Dox decreases oxygen consumption rate in PDLSCs exposed to IL-17, suggesting that changes in metabolic performance can be involved in Dox-mediated effects on PDLSCs. The pro-regenerative properties of Dox in inflammatory microenvironment candidates Dox in terms of regenerative therapy of PD-affected periodontium are observed.

Abstract
The biology of vitamin D3 is well defined, as are the effects of its active metabolites on various cells, including mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSCs). However, the biological potential of its precursor, cholecalciferol (VD3), has not been sufficiently investigated, although its significance in regenerative medicine—mainly in combination with various biomaterial matrices—has been recognized. Given that VD3 preconditioning might also contribute to the improvement of cellular regenerative potential, the aim of this study was to investigate its effects on bone marrow (BM) MSC functions and the signaling pathways involved. For that purpose, the influence of VD3 on BM-MSCs obtained from young human donors was determined via MTT test, flow cytometric analysis, immunocytochemistry, and qRT-PCR. Our results revealed that VD3, following a 5-day treatment, stimulated proliferation, expression of pluripotency markers (NANOG, SOX2, and Oct4), and osteogenic differentiation potential in BM-MSCs, while it reduced their senescence. Moreover, increased sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) expression was detected upon treatment with VD3, which mediated VD3-promoted osteogenesis and, partially, the stemness features through NANOG and SOX2 upregulation. In contrast, the effects of VD3 on proliferation, Oct4 expression, and senescence were SIRT1-independent. Altogether, these data indicate that VD3 has strong potential to modulate BM-MSCs’ features, partially through SIRT1 signaling, although the precise mechanisms merit further investigation.

Abstract
The fate and behavior of bone marrow mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (BM-MSC) is bidirectionally influenced by their microenvironment, the stem cell niche, where a magnitude of biochemical and physical cues communicate in an extremely orchestrated way. It is known that simplified 2D in vitro systems for BM-MSC culture do not represent their naïve physiological environment. Here, we developed four different 2D cell-based decellularized matrices (dECM) and a 3D decellularized human trabecular-bone scaffold (dBone) to evaluate BM-MSC behavior. The obtained cell-derived matrices provided a reliable tool for cell shape-based analyses of typical features associated with osteogenic differentiation at high-throughput level. On the other hand, exploratory proteomics analysis identified native bone-specific proteins selectively expressed in dBone but not in dECM models. Together with its architectural complexity, the physico-chemical properties of dBone triggered the upregulation of stemness associated genes and niche-related protein expression, proving in vitro conservation of the naïve features of BM-MSC.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) have been considered the promising candidates for the regenerative and personalized medicine due to their self-renewal potential, multilineage differentiation and immunomodulatory capacity. Although these properties have encouraged profound MSC studies in recent years, the majority of research has been based on standard 2D culture utilization. The opportunity to resemble in vivo characteristics of cells native niche has been provided by implementation of 3D culturing models such as MSC spheroid formation assesed through cells self-assembling. In this review, we address the current literature on physical and biochemical features of 3D MSC spheroid microenvironment and their impact on MSC properties and behaviors. Starting with the reduction in the cells' dimensions and volume due to the changes in adhesion molecules expression and cytoskeletal proteins rearrangement resembling native conditions, through the microenvironment shifts in oxygen, nutrients and metabolites gradients and demands, we focus on distinctive and beneficial features of MSC in spheroids compared to cells cultured in 2D conditions. By summarizing the data for 3D MSC spheroids regarding cell survival, pluripotency, differentiation, immunomodulatory activities and potential to affect tumor cells growth we highlighted advantages and perspectives of MSC spheroids use in regenerative medicine. Further detailed analyses are needed to deepen our understanding of mechanisms responsible for modified MSC behavior in spheroids and to set future directions for MSC clinical application.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been identified within dental pulp tissues of exfoliated deciduous (SHEDs) and permanent (DPSCs) teeth. Although differences in their proliferative and differentiation properties were revealed, variability in SHEDs and DPSCs responsiveness to growth factors and cytokines have not been studied before. Here, we investigated the influence of interleukin-17 (IL-17) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) on stemness features of SHEDs and DPSCs by analyzing their proliferation, clonogenicity, cell cycle progression, pluripotency markers expression and differentiation after 7-day treatment. Results indicated that IL-17 and bFGF differently affected SHEDs and DPSCs proliferation and clonogenicity, since bFGF increased proliferative and clonogenic potential of both cell types, while IL-17 similarly affected SHEDs, exerting no effects on adult counterparts DPSCs. In addition, both factors stimulated NANOG, OCT4, and SOX2 pluripotency markers expression in SHEDs and DPSCs showing diverse intracellular expression patterns dependent on MSCs type. As for the differentiation capacity, both factors displayed comparable effects on SHEDs and DPSCs, including stimulatory effect of IL-17 on early osteogenesis in contrast to the strong inhibitory effect showed for bFGF, while having no impact on SHEDs and DPSCs chondrogenesis. Moreover, bFGF combined with IL-17 reduced CD90 and stimulated CD73 expression on both types of MSCs, whereas each factor induced IL-6 expression indicating its' role in IL-17/bFGF-modulated properties of SHEDs and DPSCs. All these data demonstrated that dental pulp MSCs from primary and permanent teeth exert intrinsic features, providing novel evidence on how IL-17 and bFGF affect stem cell properties important for regeneration of dental pulp at different ages.

Abstract
The incidence of musculoskeletal diseases is steadily increasing with aging of the population. In the past years, extracellular vesicles (EVs) have gained attention in musculoskeletal research. EVs have been associated with various musculoskeletal pathologies as well as suggested as treatment option. EVs play a pivotal role in communication between cells and their environment. Thereby, the EV cargo is highly dependent on their cellular origin. In this review, we summarize putative mechanisms by which EVs can contribute to musculoskeletal tissue homeostasis, regeneration and disease, in particular matrix remodeling and mineralization, pro-angiogenic effects and immunomodulatory activities. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) present the most frequently used cell source for EV generation for musculoskeletal applications, and herein we discuss how the MSC phenotype can influence the cargo and thus the regenerative potential of EVs. Induced pluripotent stem cell-derived mesenchymal progenitor cells (iMPs) may overcome current limitations of MSCs, and iMP-derived EVs are discussed as an alternative strategy. In the last part of the article, we focus on therapeutic applications of EVs and discuss both practical considerations for EV production and the current state of EV-based therapies.

Abstract
Adipose tissue (AT) forms depots at different anatomical locations throughout the body, being in subcutaneous and visceral regions, as well as the bone marrow. These ATs differ in the adipocyte functional profile, their insulin sensitivity, adipokines’ production, lipolysis, and response to pathologic conditions. Despite the recent advances in lineage tracing, which have demonstrated that individual adipose depots are composed of adipocytes derived from distinct progenitor populations, the cellular and molecular dissection of the adipose clonogenic stem cell niche is still a great challenge. Additional complexity in AT regulation is associated with tumor-induced changes that affect adipocyte phenotype. As an integrative unit of cell differentiation, AT microenvironment regulates various phenotype outcomes of differentiating adipogenic lineages, which consequently may contribute to the neoplastic phenotype manifestations. Particularly interesting is the capacity of AT to impose and support the aberrant potency of stem cells that accompanies tumor development. In this review, we summarize the current findings on the communication between adipocytes and their progenitors with tumor cells, pointing out to the co-existence of healthy and neoplastic stem cell niches developed during tumor evolution. We also discuss tumor-induced adaptations in mature adipocytes and the involvement of alternative differentiation programs.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) are an essential element of most modern tissue engineering and regenerative medicine approaches due to their multipotency and immunoregulatory functions. Despite the prospective value of MSCs for the clinics, the stem cells community is questioning their developmental origin, in vivo localization, identification, and regenerative potential after several years of far-reaching research in the field. Although several major progresses have been made in mimicking the complexity of the MSC niche in vitro, there is need for comprehensive studies of fundamental mechanisms triggered by microenvironmental cues before moving to regenerative medicine cell therapy applications. The present comprehensive review extensively discusses the microenvironmental cues that influence MSC phenotype and function in health and disease - including cellular, chemical and physical interactions. The most recent and relevant illustrative examples of novel bioengineering approaches to mimic biological, chemical, and mechanical microenvironmental signals present in the native MSC niche are summarized, with special emphasis on the forefront techniques to achieve bio-chemical complexity and dynamic cultures. In particular, the skeletal MSC niche and applications focusing on the bone regenerative potential of MSC are addressed. The aim of the review was to recognize the limitations of the current MSC niche in vitro models and to identify potential opportunities to fill the bridge between fundamental science and clinical application of MSCs.

Abstract
Objectives Soluble IL‐33 (interleukin (IL)‐1‐like cytokine) acts as endogenous alarm signal (alarmin). Since alarmins, besides activating immune system, act to restore tissue homeostasis, we investigated whether IL‐33 exerts beneficial effects on oral stem cell pull. Materials and Methods Clonogenicity, proliferation, differentiation and senescence of stem cells derived from human periodontal ligament (PDLSCs) and dental pulp (DPSCs) were determined after in vitro exposure to IL‐33. Cellular changes were detected by flow cytometry, Western blot, immunocytochemistry and semiquantitative RT‐PCR. Results IL‐33 stimulated proliferation, clonogenicity and expression of pluripotency markers, OCT‐4, SOX‐2 and NANOG, but it inhibited ALP activity and mineralization in both PDLSCs and DPSCs. Higher Ki67 expression and reduced β‐galactosidase activity in IL‐33‐treated cells were demonstrated, whereas these trends were more conspicuous in osteogenic medium. However, after 7‐day IL‐33 pretreatment, differentiation capacity of IL‐33‐pretreated cells was retained, and increased ALP activity was observed in both cell types. Results showed that IL‐33 regulates NF‐κB and β‐catenin signalling, indicating the association of these molecules with changes observed in IL‐33‐treated PDLSCs and DPSCs, particularly their proliferation, pluripotency‐associated marker expression and osteogenesis. Conclusions IL‐33 treatment impairs osteogenesis of PDLSCs and DPSCs, while increases their clonogenicity, proliferation and pluripotency marker expression. After exposure to IL‐33, osteogenic capacity of cells stayed intact. NF‐κB and β‐catenin are implicated in the effects achieved by IL‐33 in PDLSCs and DPSCs.

Abstract
Adipose tissue (AT) homeostasis and expansion are dependent on complex crosstalk between resident adipose stromal/stem cells (ASCs) and AT extracellular matrix (ECM). Although adipose tissue ECM (atECM) is one of the key players in the stem cell niche, data on bidirectional interaction of ASCs and atECM are still scarce. Here, we investigated how atECM guides ASCs' differentiation. atECM altered shape and cytoskeleton organization of ASCs without changing their proliferation, β-galactosidase activity and adhesion. Cytoskeleton modifications occurred due to fostered parallel organization of F-actin and elevated expression of Vimentin in ASCs. After seven-day cultivation, atECM impaired osteogenesis of ASCs, simultaneously decreasing expression of Runx2. In addition, atECM accelerated early adipogenesis concomitantly with altered Vimentin organization in ASCs, slightly increasing PPARγ, while elevated Adiponectin and Vimentin mRNA expression. Early adipogenesis triggered by atECM was followed by upregulated mitochondrial activity and Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) expression in ASCs. Proadipogenic events induced by atECM were mediated by SIRT1, indicating the supportive role of atECM in adipogenesis-related metabolic state of ASCs. These results provide a closer look at the effects of atECM on ASC physiology and may support the advancement of engineering design in soft tissue reconstruction and fundamental research of AT.

Abstract
Due to coexistence of stromal and epithelial tumor cells, their dynamic interactions have been widely recognized as significant cellular components to the tumor tissue integrity. Initiation and outcome of epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) in tumor cells are dependent on their interaction with adjacent or recruited mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs). A plethora of mechanisms are involved in MSCs-controlled employment of the developmental processes of EMT that contribute to loss of epithelial cell phenotype and acquisition of stemness, invasiveness and chemoresistance of tumor cells. Interplay of MSCs with tumor cells, including interchange of soluble biomolecules, plasma membrane structures, cytoplasmic content, and organelles, is established through cell-cell contact and/or by means of paracrine signaling. The main focus of this review is to summarize knowledge about involvement of MSCs in cancer cell EMT. Understanding the underlying cellular and molecular mechanism involved in the interplay between MSCs and cancer EMT is essential for development of effective therapy approaches, which in combination with current treatments may improve the control of tumor progression.

Abstract
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a pertinent deleterious factor in oral microenvironment for cells which are carriers of regenerative processes. The aim of this study was to investigate the emerging in vitro effects of LPS (Escherichia coli) on human periodontal ligament stem cell (PDLSC) functions and associated signaling pathways. We demonstrated that LPS did not affect immunophenotype, proliferation, viability, and cell cycle of PDLSCs. However, LPS modified lineage commitment of PDLSCs inhibiting osteogenesis by downregulating Runx2, ALP, and Ocn mRNA expression, while stimulating chondrogenesis and adipogenesis by upregulating Sox9 and PPARγ mRNA expression. LPS promoted myofibroblast-like phenotype of PDLSCs, since it significantly enhanced PDLSC contractility, as well as protein and/or gene expression of TGF-β, fibronectin (FN), α-SMA, and NG2. LPS also increased protein and gene expression levels of anti-inflammatory COX-2 and pro-inflammatory IL-6 molecules in PDLSCs. Inhibition of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (MNCs) transendothelial migration in presence of LPS-treated PDLSCs was accompanied by the reduction of CD29 expression within MNCs. However, LPS treatment did not change the inhibitory effect of PDLSCs on mitogen-stimulated proliferation of CD4+ and the ratio of CD4+ CD25high /CD4+ CD25low lymphocytes. LPS-treated PDLSCs did not change the frequency of CD34+ and CD45+ cells, but decreased the frequency of CD33+ and CD14+ myeloid cells within MNCs. Moreover, LPS treatment attenuated the stimulatory effect of PDLSCs on CFC activity of MNCs, predominantly the CFU-GM number. The results indicated that LPS-activated ERK1,2 was at least partly involved in the observed effects on PDLSC differentiation capacity, acquisition of myofibroblastic attributes, and changes of their immunomodulatory features.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells from human adipose tissue (hASCs) are proposed as suitable tools for soft tissue engineering and reconstruction. Although it is known that hASCs have the ability to home to sites of inflammation and tumor niche, the role of inflammatory cytokines in the hASCs-affected tumor development is not understood. We found that interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and/or tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) prime hASCs to produce soluble factors which enhance MCF-7 cell line malignancy in vitro. IFN-γ and/or TNF-α-primed hASCs produced conditioned media (CM) which induced epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) of MCF-7 cells by reducing E-Cadherin and increasing Vimentin expression. Induced EMT was accompanied by increased invasion, migration, and urokinase type-plasminogen activator (uPA) expression in MCF-7 cells. These effects were mediated by increased expression of transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1) in cytokines-primed hASCs, since inhibition of type I TGF-β1 receptor on MCF-7 cells and neutralization of TGF-β1 disabled the CM from primed hASCs to increase EMT, cell migration, and uPA expression in MCF-7 cells. Obtained data suggested that IFN-γ and/or TNF-α primed hASCs might enhance the malignancy of MCF-7 cell line by inducing EMT, cell motility and uPA expression in these cells via TGF-β1-Smad3 signalization, with potentially important implications in breast cancer progression.

Abstract
AIMS In vitro expansion changes replication and differentiation capacity of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), increasing challenges and risks, while limiting the sufficient number of MSCs required for cytotherapy. Here, we characterized and compared proliferation, differentiation, telomere length and pluripotency marker expression in MSCs of various origins. MAIN METHODS Immunophenotyping, proliferation and differentiation assays were performed. Pluripotency marker (Nanog, Oct-4, SOX-2, SSEA-4) expression was determined by immunofluorescence. Quantitative PCR was performed for relative telomere length (RTL) analyses, while expression of relevant genes for pluripotency markers, differentiation state (Cbfa1, human placental alkaline phosphatase, peroxisome proliferator activated receptor, Sox9 and Collagen II a1), and telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) was determined by semiquantitative RT-PCR. KEY FINDINGS Peripheral blood MSCs (PB-MSCs) and umbilical cord MSCs (UC-MSCs) showed the highest, while periodontal ligament MSCs (PDL-MSCs) and adipose tissue MSCs (AT-MSCs) the lowest values of both the replication potential and RTL. Although MSCs from exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHEDs), PDL-MSCs and AT-MSCs showed higher mRNA expression of pluripotency markers, all MSCs expressed pluripotency marker proteins. SHEDs and PDL-MSCs showed prominent capacity for osteogenesis, PB-MSCs and UC-MSCs showed strengthened adipogenic differentiation potential, while AT-MSCs displayed similar differentiation into both lines. SIGNIFICANCE The MSCs populations derived from different sources, although displaying similar phenotype, exhibited high degree of variability regarding biological properties related to their self-renewal and differentiation capacity. These data indicate that for more accurate use in cell therapy, individualities of MSCs isolated from different tissues should be identified and taken into consideration when planning their use in clinical protocols.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have the potential to migrate toward damaged tissues increasing tissue regeneration. Interleukin-17 (IL-17) is a proinflammatory cytokine with pleiotropic effects associated with many inflammatory diseases. Although IL-17 can modulate MSC functions, its capacity to regulate MSC migration is not well elucidated so far. Here, we studied the role of IL-17 on peripheral blood (PB) derived MSC migration and transmigration across endothelial cells. IL-17 increased PB-MSC migration in a wound healing assay as well as cell mobilization from collagen gel. Concomitantly IL-17 induced the expression of urokinase type plasminogen activator (uPA) without affecting matrix metalloproteinase expression. The incremented uPA expression mediated the capacity of IL-17 to enhance PB-MSC migration in a ERK1,2 MAPK dependent way. Also, IL-17 induced PB-MSC migration alongside with changes in cell polarization and uPA localization in cell protrusions. Moreover, IL-17 increased PB-MSC adhesion to endothelial cells and transendothelial migration, as well as increased the capacity of PB-MSC adhesion to fibronectin, in an uPA-dependent fashion. Therefore, our data suggested that IL-17 may act as chemotropic factor for PB-MSCs by incrementing cell motility and uPA expression during inflammation development.

Aim To investigate the survival of laboratory rats after irradiation and to study the cellularity of their bone marrow and the multipotential mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) in groups treated with or without a new thiol-based radioprotector (GM2011) Methods Animals were irradiated by a Cobalt gamma source at 6.7 Gy. Treated animals were given i.p. GM2011 30 minutes before and 3 and 7 hours after irradiation. Controls consisted of sham irradiated animals without treatment and animals treated without irradiation. After 30 days post-irradiation, animals were sacrificed and bone marrow cells were prepared from isolated femurs. A colony forming unit-fibroblast (CFU-F) assay was performed to obtain the number of BM-MSCs. Results In the treated group, 87% of animals survived, compared to only 30% in the non-treated irradiated group. Irradiation induced significant changes in the bone marrow of the treated rats (total bone marrow cellularity was reduced by ~ 60% – from 63 to 28 cells ×106/femur and the frequency of the CFU-F per femur by ~ 70% – from 357 to 97), however GL2011 almost completely prevented the suppressive effect observed on day 30 post-irradiation (71 cells ×106/femur and 230 CFU-F/femur). Conclusion Although the irradiation dosage was relatively high, GL2011 acted as a very effective new radioprotector. The recovery of the BN-MSCs and their counts support the effectiveness of the studied radioprotector.

Abstract
Adipose tissue is an attractive source of mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) with potential applications in reconstructive plastic surgery and regenerative medicine. The aim of this study was to characterise human adipose tissue MSCs (ASCs) derived from healthy individuals and cancer patients and to compare their interactions with tumour cells. ASCs were isolated from adipose tissue of healthy donors, breast cancer-adjacent adipose tissue of breast cancer patients and tumour-adjacent adipose tissue of non-breast cancer patients. Their proliferation, differentiation, immunophenotype and gene expression were assessed and effects on the proliferation of human breast cancer cell line MCF-7 compared. ASCs from all sources exhibited similar morphology, proliferative and differentiation potential, showing the characteristic pattern of mesenchymal surface markers expression (CD90, CD105, CD44H, CD73) and the lack of HLA-DR and hematopoietic markers (CD11a, CD33, CD45, Glycophorin-CD235a), but uneven expression of CD34. ASCs also shared a common positive gene expression of HLA-DR, HLA-A, IL-6, TGF-β and HIF-1, but were negative for HLA-G, while the expression levels of Cox-2 and IDO-1 varied. All ASCs significantly stimulated the proliferation of MCF-7 tumour cells in direct mixed co-cultures and transwell system, although their conditioned media displayed antiproliferative activity. Data obtained showed that ASCs with similar characteristics are easily isolated from various donors and sites of origin, although ASCs could both suppress and favour tumour cells growth, emphasising the importance of cellular context within the microenvironment and pointing to the significance of safety studies to exclude any potential clinical risk of their application in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
The aim of this study has been to elucidate how different oxygen levels impact the effects of Interleukin-17 (IL-17) on angiogenic properties of endothelial cells. Two endothelial cell lines, mouse MS-1 and human EA.hy 926, were grown in 20% and 3% O2 and their angiogenic abilities analyzed after IL-17 treatment: proliferation, apoptosis, migration and tubulogenesis. Expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (Cox-2) was also measured. Considering EA.hy 926 cell line, hypoxia alone reduced proliferation, survival and migration, but not their ability to form tubules. When cultured at 20% O2 , IL-17 stimulated proliferation, migration and tubulogenesis, whereas a hypoxic environment did not affect their migration and proliferation, but increased their survival and tubulogenic properties. Expression of eNOS and Cox-2 increased by both IL-17 and hypoxia, as well as with their combination. With the MS-1 cell line hypoxia did not affect proliferation, survival, migration and tubule formation. At 20% O2 , IL-17 did not alter their proliferation,but inhibited migration and stimulated tubule formation. At 3% O2 , only the stimulating effect of IL-17 on tubulogenesis was evident. The constitutive expression of eNOS was unaffected by oxygen concentrations or IL-17 supplementation, whereas both IL-17 and hypoxia upregulated Cox-2 expression. Thus the effects of IL-17 on the angiogenic properties of endothelial cells depend on both the cell line used and the oxygen concentration.

Abstract
AIMS To identify independent prognostic factors in patients with cancer of unknown primary site (CUP) who do not belong to prognostically favourable subsets, and to develop a prognostic index for predicting survival in these patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this prospective study, univariate and multivariate analyses of prognostic factors were conducted in a population of 145 patients with CUP in two clinical institutions. Subsets of patients with favourable prognostic features and those requiring well-defined treatment were excluded. RESULTS The 1-year overall survival rate for all patients was 42% and the median overall survival was 330 days. Overall survival was significantly related to the following pre-treatment prognostic factors: poor Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS)>or=2, presence of liver metastasis, elevated serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), high white blood cell count, anaemia, age>or=63 years, and prolonged QTc interval in electrocardiography (ECG). In multivariate analysis, four independent adverse prognostic parameters were retained: elevated LDH (hazard ratio 2.21; 95% confidence interval 1.41-3.47; P=0.001), prolonged QTc interval (hazard ratio 2.10; 95% confidence interval 1.28-3.44; P=0.003), liver metastasis (hazard ratio 1.77; 95% confidence interval 1.11-2.81; P=0.016) and ECOG PS>or=2 (hazard ratio 1.69; 95% confidence interval 1.05-2.73; P=0.03). We developed a prognostic index for overall survival based on the following subgroups: good prognosis (no or one adverse factor), intermediate prognosis (two adverse factors) and poor prognosis (three or four adverse factors). The median overall survival for the three subgroups was 420, 152 and 60 days, respectively, P<0.0001. CONCLUSIONS This study validated previously identified important prognostic factors for survival in patients with CUP. Prolonged QTc was additionally identified as a strong adverse prognostic factor. We developed a simple prognostic index using performance status, LDH, presence of liver metastasis and QTc interval in ECG, which allowed assignment of patients into three subgroups with divergent outcome.
