High levels of lymphoid expression of enhanced green fluorescent protein in nonhuman primates transplanted with cytokine-mobilized peripheral blood CD34(+) cells.
We have used a murine retrovirus vector containing an enhanced green fluorescent protein complimentary DNA (EGFP cDNA) to dynamically follow vector-expressing cells in the peripheral blood (PB) of transplanted rhesus macaques. Cytokine mobilized CD34(+) cells were transduced with an amphotropic vector that expressed EGFP and a dihydrofolate reductase cDNA under control of the murine stem cell virus promoter. The transduction protocol used the CH-296 recombinant human fibronectin fragment and relatively high concentrations of the flt-3 ligand and stem cell factor. Following transplantation of the transduced cells,up to 55% EGFP-expressing granulocytes were obtained in the peripheral circulation during the early posttransplant period. This level of myeloid marking,however,decreased to 0.1% or lower within 2 weeks. In contrast,EGFP expression in PB lymphocytes rose from 2%-5% shortly following transplantation to 10% or greater by week 5. After 10 weeks,the level of expression in PB lymphocytes continued to remain at 3%-5% as measured by both flow cytometry and Southern blot analysis,and EGFP expression was observed in CD4(+),CD8(+),CD20(+),and CD16/56(+) lymphocyte subsets. EGFP expression was only transiently detected in red blood cells and platelets soon after transplantation. Such sustained levels of lymphocyte marking may be therapeutic in a number of human gene therapy applications that require targeting of the lymphoid compartment. The transient appearance of EGFP(+) myeloid cells suggests that transduction of a lineage-restricted myeloid progenitor capable of short-term engraftment was obtained with this protocol.

Identification of a novel class of human adherent CD34- stem cells that give rise to SCID-repopulating cells.
Here we describe the in vitro generation of a novel adherent cell fraction derived from highly enriched,mobilized CD133(+) peripheral blood cells after their culture with Flt3/Flk2 ligand and interleukin-6 for 3 to 5 weeks. These cells lack markers of hematopoietic stem cells,endothelial cells,mesenchymal cells,dendritic cells,and stromal fibroblasts. However,all adherent cells expressed the adhesion molecules VE-cadherin,CD54,and CD44. They were also positive for CD164 and CD172a (signal regulatory protein-alpha) and for a stem cell antigen defined by the recently described antibody W7C5. Adherent cells can either spontaneously or upon stimulation with stem cell factor give rise to a transplantable,nonadherent CD133(+)CD34(-) stem cell subset. These cells do not generate in vitro hematopoietic colonies. However,their transplantation into nonobese diabetic/severe combined immunodeficiency (NOD/SCID) mice induced substantially higher long-term multilineage engraftment compared with that of freshly isolated CD34(+) cells,suggesting that these cells are highly enriched in SCID-repopulating cells. In addition to cells of the myeloid lineage,nonadherent CD34(-) cells were able to give rise to human cells with B-,T-,and natural killer-cell phenotype. Hence,these cells possess a distinct in vivo differentiation potential compared with that of CD34(+) stem cells and may therefore provide an alternative to CD34(+) progenitor cells for transplantation.

Hematopoietic stem cells do not engraft with absolute efficiencies.
Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) can be isolated from murine bone marrow by their ability to efflux the Hoechst 33342 dye. This method defines an extremely small and hematopoietically potent subset of cells known as the side population (SP). Recent studies suggest that transplanted single SP cells are capable of lymphohematopoietic repopulation at near absolute efficiencies. Here,we carefully reevaluate the hematopoietic potential of individual SP cells and find substantially lower rates of reconstitution. Our strategy involved the cotransplantation of single SP cells along with different populations of competitor cells that varied in their self-renewal capacity. Even with minimized HSC competition,SP cells were only able to reconstitute up to 35% of recipient mice. Furthermore,through immunophenotyping and clonal in vitro assays we find that SP cells are virtually homogeneous. Isolation of HSCs on the basis of Hoechst exclusion and a single cell-surface marker allows enrichment levels similar to that obtained with complex multicolor strategies. Altogether,our results indicate that even an extremely homogeneous HSC population,based on phenotype and dye efflux,cannot reconstitute mice at absolute efficiencies.

One-day kinetics of myocardial engraftment after intracoronary injection of bone marrow mononuclear cells in patients with acute and chronic myocardial infarction.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the kinetics of myocardial engraftment of bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells (BMNCs) after intracoronary injection using 99mTc-d,l-hexamethylpropylene amine oxime (99mTc-HMPAO) nuclear imaging in patients with acute and chronic anterior myocardial infarction. DESIGN: Nuclear imaging-derived tracking of BMNCs at 2 and 20 h after injection in the left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery. SETTING: Academical cardiocentre. PATIENTS: Five patients with acute (mean (SD) age 58 (11) years; ejection fraction range 33-45%) and five patients with chronic (mean (SD) age 50 (6) years; ejection fraction range 28-34%) anterior myocardial infarction. INTERVENTIONS: A total of 24.2 x 10(8)-57.0 x 10(8) BMNCs (20% labelled with 700-1000 MBq 99mTc-HMPAO) were injected in the LAD coronary artery. RESULTS: At 2 h after BMNC injection,myocardial activity was observed in all patients with acute (range 1.31-5.10%) and in all but one patient with chronic infarction (range 1.10-3.0%). At 20 h,myocardial engraftment was noted only in three patients with acute myocardial infarction,whereas no myocardial activity was noted in any patient with chronic infarction. CONCLUSIONS: Engraftment of BMNCs shows dynamic changes within the first 20 h after intracoronary injection. Persistent myocardial engraftment was noted only in a subset of patients with acute myocardial infarction.

Patient-tailored application for Duchene muscular dystrophy on mdx mice based induced mesenchymal stem cells
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) may be used as powerful tools for the repair and regeneration of damaged tissues. However,isolating tissue specific-derived MSCs may cause pain and increased infection rates in patients,and repetitive isolations may be required. To overcome these difficulties,we have examined alternative methods for MSC production. Here,we show that induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) may be differentiated into mesenchymal stem cells (iMSCs) following exposure to SB431542. Purified iMSCs were administered to mdx mice to study skeletal muscle regeneration in a murine model of muscular dystrophy. Purified iMSCs displayed fibroblast-like morphology,formed three-dimensional spheroid structures,and expressed characteristic mesenchymal stem cell surface markers such as CD29,CD33,CD73,CD90,and CD105. Moreover,iMSCs were capable of differentiating into adipogenic,osteogenic,and chondrogenic lineages. Transplanting iMSC cells to tibialis anterior skeletal muscle tissue in mdx mice lowered oxidative damage as evidenced by a reduction in nitrotyrosine levels,and normal dystrophin expression levels were restored. This study demonstrates the therapeutic potential of purified iMSCs in skeletal muscle regeneration in mdx mice,and suggests that iPSCs are a viable alternate source for deriving MSCs as needed. textcopyright 2014 Elsevier Inc.

Differences between peripheral blood and cord blood in the kinetics of lineage-restricted hematopoietic cells: implications for delayed platelet recovery following cord blood transplantation.
Cord blood (CB) cells are a useful source of hematopoietic cells for transplantation. The hematopoietic activities of CB cells are different from those of bone marrow and peripheral blood (PB) cells. Platelet recovery is significantly slower after transplantation with CB cells than with cells from other sources. However,the cellular mechanisms underlying these differences have not been elucidated. We compared the surface marker expression profiles of PB and CB hematopoietic cells. We focused on two surface markers of hematopoietic cell immaturity,i.e.,CD34 and AC133. In addition to differences in surface marker expression,the PB and CB cells showed nonidentical differentiation pathways from AC133(+)CD34(+) (immature) hematopoietic cells to terminally differentiated cells. The majority of the AC133(+)CD34(+) PB cells initially lost AC133 expression and eventually became AC133(-)CD34(-) cells. In contrast,the AC133(+)CD34(+) CB cells did not go through the intermediate AC133(-)CD34(+) stage and lost both markers simultaneously. Meanwhile,the vast majority of megakaryocyte progenitors were of the AC133(-)CD34(+) phenotype. We conclude that the delayed recovery of platelets after CB transplantation is due to both subpopulation distribution and the process of differentiation from AC133(+)CD34(+) cells.

In vivo selection of MGMT(P140K) lentivirus-transduced human NOD/SCID repopulating cells without pretransplant irradiation conditioning.
Infusion of transduced hematopoietic stem cells into nonmyeloablated hosts results in ineffective in vivo levels of transduced cells. To increase the proportion of transduced cells in vivo,selection based on P140K O6-methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase (MGMT[P140K]) gene transduction and O6-benzylguanine/1,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea (BG/BCNU) treatment has been devised. In this study,we transduced human NOD/SCID repopulating cells (SRCs) with MGMT(P140K) using a lentiviral vector and infused them into BG/BCNU-conditioned NOD/SCID mice before rounds of BG/BCNU treatment as a model for in vivo selection. Engraftment was not observed until the second round of BG/BCNU treatment,at which time human cells emerged to compose up to 20% of the bone marrow. Furthermore,99% of human CFCs derived from NOD/SCID mice were positive for provirus as measured by PCR,compared with 35% before transplant and 11% in untreated irradiation-preconditioned mice,demonstrating selection. Bone marrow showed BG-resistant O6-alkylguanine-DNA-alkyltransferase (AGT) activity,and CFUs were stained intensely for AGT protein,indicating high transgene expression. Real-time PCR estimates of the number of proviral insertions in individual CFUs ranged from 3 to 22. Selection resulted in expansion of one or more SRC clones containing similar numbers of proviral copies per mouse. To our knowledge,these results provide the first evidence of potent in vivo selection of MGMT(P140K) lentivirus-transduced human SRCs following BG/BCNU treatment.

Hematopoietic reconstitution with androgenetic and gynogenetic stem cells.
Parthenogenetic embryonic stem (ES) cells with two oocyte-derived genomes (uniparental) have been proposed as a source of autologous tissue for transplantation. The therapeutic applicability of any uniparental cell type is uncertain due to the consequences of genomic imprinting that in mammalian uniparental tissues causes unbalanced expression of imprinted genes. We transplanted uniparental fetal liver cells into lethally irradiated adult mice to test their capacity to replace adult hematopoietic tissue. Both maternal (gynogenetic) and paternal (androgenetic) derived cells conveyed long-term,multilineage reconstitution of hematopoiesis in recipients,with no associated pathologies. We also establish that uniparental ES cells can differentiate into transplantable hematopoietic progenitors in vitro that contribute to long-term hematopoiesis in recipients. Hematopoietic tissue in recipients maintained fidelity of parent-of-origin methylation marks at the Igf2/H19 locus; however,variability occurred in the maintenance of parental-specific methylation marks at other loci. In summary,despite genomic imprinting and its consequences on development that are particularly evident in the androgenetic phenotype,uniparental cells of both parental origins can form adult-transplantable stem cells and can repopulate an adult organ.
