    Up-regulation of BST2 in both esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cells and cancer-associated fibroblast (CAF)–like cells. A: A schematic overview of the experimental design of direct co-culture and cDNA microarray analysis. ESCC cell lines (TE-9, TE-10, and TE-15) were co-cultured with mesenchymal stem cells <t>(MSCs)</t> in the same dish for 4 days, whereas monocultured ESCC cells and MSCs served as controls. Following co-culture, cells were separated using epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) microbeads, with EpCAM-positive and EpCAM-negative fractions from the co-culture designated as TE co (TE-9 co, TE-10 co, and TE-15 co) and CAF-like cells (CAF9, CAF10, and CAF15), respectively. Similarly, monocultured ESCC cells and MSCs were applied to a cell separator and classified as TE mono (TE-9 mono, TE-10 mono, and TE-15 mono) or MSC mono, respectively. A cDNA microarray was performed between TE-9 mono and TE-9 co or between MSC mono and CAF9 in previous studies. B: Venn diagram of 188 genes with TE-9 co [signal intensity (global normalization) > 1000]/TE-9 mono ratio >2 and 59 genes with CAF9 [signal intensity (global normalization) > 1000]/MSC mono ratio >2 in the cDNA microarray analysis. A total of 32 overlapping genes were identified between the two groups. Among them, BST2, which facilitates direct cell-cell interactions, was selected for further investigation in this study. C: The mRNA expression levels of BST2 in MSC mono and CAF-like cells were analyzed and compared by quantitative real-time PCR. D: Western blot analysis was performed to compare BST2 protein expression levels in MSCs and CAF-like cells using SDS sample buffer containing 2-mercaptoethanol (2-ME), with β-actin serving as the loading control. E: Western blot analysis was performed to compare BST2 protein expression levels in MSCs and CAF-like cells using SDS sample buffer lacking 2-ME, with β-actin serving as the loading control.

    Up-regulation of BST2 in both esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cells and cancer-associated fibroblast (CAF)–like cells. A: A schematic overview of the experimental design of direct co-culture and cDNA microarray analysis. ESCC cell lines (TE-9, TE-10, and TE-15) were co-cultured with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in the same dish for 4 days, whereas monocultured ESCC cells and MSCs served as controls.

    Alizarin Red staining of BM-MSCs cultured in different osteogenic media (DM1–DM4) at various time points reveals differences in calcium deposition. Cells were cultured for 7, 14, and 28 days in DM1–DM4 media. Red staining indicates the presence of calcium-rich deposits. The most extensive mineralization was observed in DM4, particularly on day 14 and 28, whereas DM2 (lacking DEX after day 7) showed the weakest staining. Scale bar = 200 μm

    A Quantification of calcium deposition in BM-MSCs cultured in osteogenic media DM1–DM4 using Alizarin Red extraction. Absorbance was measured at 562 nm and expressed in arbitrary units. B ALP activity in BM-MSCs cultured in different osteogenic media (DM1–DM4) at various time points. ALP activity was normalized to total protein content and expressed as enzyme activity per milligram of protein per milliliter of lysate. All data represent means ± standard deviations from three independent biological replicates. Statistical significance was assessed using a two-tailed unpaired t -test and is indicated by asterisks (* P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001).

    Visualization of actin cytoskeleton and mitochondrial network in BM-MSCs undergoing osteogenic differentiation in various media (DM1–DM4). Cells were stained with Phalloidin–TRITC (red) to visualize F-actin filaments and MitoTracker™ Red CMXRos (red) to detect mitochondria. Cell nuclei were counterstained with NucBlue™ (blue). Images were processed using ImageJ software (W. S. Rasband, U.S. National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA). Scale bar = 100 μm

    Relative expression levels of osteogenic marker genes during BM-MSCs osteodifferentiation in different supplementation conditions. Transcript levels of A RUNX2 , B ALP , C OCN , and D BMP2 were measured by qRT-PCR at days 7, 14, and 28 in BM-MSCs cultured in osteogenic media DM1–DM4. Gene expression was normalized to the housekeeping gene GAPDH and expressed relative to undifferentiated control levels. All data are presented as means ± standard deviation from three biological replicates. Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences (* P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01; unpaired two-tailed t -test).
