Abstract

Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are multipotent fibroblast-like cells located in the bone marrow that localize to areas of tissue damage including wounds and solid tumors. Within the tumor microenvironment, MSCs adopt the phenotype of carcinoma-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) and stimulate tumor growth. Production of the chemokine CXCL12, also known as stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF-1), by MSCs is required for their in vitro migration in response to tumor cells and has also been implicated in stimulation of tumor growth. The tumor suppressor p53 regulates cellular migration, CXCL12 production and the promotion of tumor growth by carcinoma-associated fibroblasts (CAFs). We investigated the role of p53 in MSC migration to tumors. P53 inhibits the migration of MSCs in response to tumor cells in conjunction with a decrease in CXCL12 transcription. Conversely, decreased p53 activity leads to enhanced MSC migration. Interestingly, increased p53 activity inhibits MSC migration even in the context of high concentrations of exogenous CXCL12. These data show that stromal p53 status impacts the recruitment of MSCs to solid tumors through both regulation of CXCL12 production as well as other mechanisms. Stromal p53 may influence other important aspects of tumor biology such as tumor growth and metastasis through mechanisms distinct from CXCL12.
