The malignity of lung cancer is conditioned by the tumor microenvironment (TME), in which cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are relevant. In this work, we generated organoids by combining A549 cells with CAFs and normal fibroblasts (NF) isolated from adenocarcinoma tumors. We optimized the conditions for their manufacture in a short time. We evaluated the morphology of organoids using confocal microscopy analysis of F-actin, vimentin and pankeratin. We determined the ultrastructure of the cells in the organoids via transmission electron microscopy and the expression of CDH1, CDH2 and VIM via RT-PCR. The addition of stromal cells induces the self-organization of the organoids, which acquired a bowl morphology, as well as their growth and the generation of cell processes. They also influenced the expression of genes related to epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT). CAFs potentiated these changes. All cells acquired a characteristic secretory phenotype, with cohesive cells appearing inside the organoids. In the periphery, many cells acquired a migratory phenotype, especially in organoids that incorporated CAFs. The deposit of abundant extracellular matrix could also be observed. The results presented here reinforce the role of CAFs in the progression of lung tumors and could lay the foundation for a useful in vitro pharmacological model. |
