Adult stem cells represent a potential source for cell-based therapy of cancer. The present study evaluated the potential of bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSC), genetically modified to express interferon (IFN)-α, for the treatment of lung metastasis in an immunocompetent mouse model of metastatic melanoma. A recombinant adeno-associated virus 6 vector (rAAV) encoding IFN-α was used to transduce mouse bone marrow-derived MSC ex vivo. Expression and bioactivity of the transgenic protein from rAAV-transduced MSC were confirmed prior to in vivo studies. A lung metastasis model of melanoma was developed by intravenous injection of B16F10 cells into 8-week-old C57BL/6 mice. Ten days later, MSC, transduced with rAAV-IFN-α or GFP were intravenously injected. One cohort of mice was sacrificed to determine the effects of the therapy at an earlier time point and another cohort was observed for long-term survival. Results indicated that systemic administration of MSC producing IFN-α reduced the growth of B16F10 melanoma cells and significantly prolonged survival. Immunohistochemistry analysis of the tumors from MSC-IFN-α treated animals indicated an increase in apoptosis and decrease in proliferation and blood vasculature. These data demonstrate the potential of adult MSC, constitutively producing IFN-α, to reduce the growth of lung metastasis in melanoma.
