Abstract
ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of different concentrations of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) on the proliferation and apoptosis of human hemangioma stem cells, it will provide a basis for studying the mechanism of FSH in treating hemangioma. MethodsHemangioma specimens were collected from the Longgang District Maternity & Child Healthcare Hospital of Shenzhen City. Hemangioma stem cells were treated with different concentrations of FSH. Cell viability was detected by CCK8 method and cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry. ResultsHemangioma stem cells (HemSCs) were extracted from fresh tissue of infantile hemangioma by the CD133 immunomagnetic bead method. Under the influence of FSH at different concentrations (0, 100, 1000 IU/L), the cell viability of hemangioma stem cells increased significantly in a concentration-dependent manner (P < 0.05). At the same time, the apoptosis of hemangioma stem cells decreased with increasing concentrations of follicle-stimulating hormone (P < 0.05). Specifically, 1000 IU/L FSH significantly promoted the proliferation of hemangioma stem cells and inhibited their apoptosis. ConclusionHigh concentration of follicle-stimulating hormone can maintain the growth of hemangioma by promoting the proliferation and inhibiting the apoptosis of hemangioma stem cells.
