Abstract
BACKGROUND: During obesity, the excessive accumulation of fat in tissue promotes dysregulated hormonal and cytokine homeostasis that triggers chronic inflammation, which is, in part, associated with an increased incidence of some cancers. This protumoral inflammatory environment is further exacerbated through the secretome of mature adipocytes, which promotes tumor angiogenesis. Emerging studies suggest that human adipocyte-derived mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (ADMSCs) may contribute to a complementary process supporting local angiogenesis termed vasculogenic mimicry (VM). The molecular mechanisms linking ADMSCs to VM and inflammation remain poorly understood. METHODS: PCR arrays. Transient gene silencing was performed by transfecting cells with a specific siRNA against STAT3. Protein lysates were harvested and used for Western blotting. Realtime cell migration was performed with the xCELLigence system. RESULTS: Our findings revealed that in vitro priming of ADMSCs with Cultrex led to the formation of 3D capillary-like structures and the acquisition of an inflammatory molecular signature. VM-derived ADMSCs share a common proinflammatory molecular signature similar to that induced in 2D ADMSC monolayers by tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and are characterized by upregulated expression of COX2, CCL2, CCL5, CXCL5, CXCL8, IL-6, SNAI1, and MMP9. Interestingly, pharmacological inhibition or gene silencing of the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway reduced chemotactic cell migration, in vitro VM and the expression of proinflammatory and invasive biomarkers. CONCLUSIONS: Overall, we provide novel evidence that inhibiting JAK2/STAT3-regulated VM can also alter the acquisition of a proinflammatory signature and prevent the contribution of ADMSCs to alternative tumor neovascularization processes.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
