Cryopreservation of adenovirus-transfected dendritic cells (DCs) for clinical use.
In this study,we examined the effects of cryoprotectant,freezing and thawing,and adenovirus (Adv) transduction on the viability,transgene expression,phenotype,and function of human dendritic cells (DCs). DCs were differentiated from cultured peripheral blood (PB) monocytes following Elutra isolation using granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and interleukin-4 (IL-4) for 6 days and then transduced using an Adv vector with an IL-12 transgene. Fresh,cryopreserved,and thawed transduced immature DCs were examined for their: 1) cellular concentration and viability; 2) antigenicity using an allogeneic mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR); 3) phenotype (HLA-DR and CD11c) and activation (CD83); and 4) transgene expression based on IL-12 secretion. Stability studies revealed that transduced DCs could be held in cryoprotectant for as long as 75 min at 2-8°C prior to freezing with little effect on their viability and cellularity. Further,cryopreservation,storage,and thawing reduced the viability of the transduced DCs by an average of 7.7%; and had no significant impact on DC phenotype and activation. In summary,cryopreservation,storage,and thawing had no significant effect on DC viability,function,and transgene expression by Adv-transduced DCs.

Structure-function relationships for human antibodies to pneumococcal capsular polysaccharide from transgenic mice with human immunoglobulin Loci.
To investigate the influence of antibody structure and specificity on antibody efficacy against Streptococcus pneumoniae,human monospecific antibodies (MAbs) to serotype 3 pneumococcal capsular polysaccharide (PPS-3) were generated from transgenic mice reconstituted with human immunoglobulin loci (XenoMouse mice) vaccinated with a PPS-3-tetanus toxoid conjugate and their molecular genetic structures,epitope specificities,and protective efficacies in normal and complement-deficient mice were determined. Nucleic acid sequence analysis of three MAbs (A7,1A2,and 7C5) revealed that they use two different V(H)3 genes (A7 and 1A2 both use V3-15) and three different V(kappa) gene segments. The MAbs were found to have similar affinities for PPS-3 but different epitope specificities and CDR3 regions. Both A7 and 7C5 had a lysine at the V(H)-D junction,whereas 1A2 had a threonine. Challenge experiments with serotype 3 S. pneumoniae in BALB/c mice revealed that both 10- and 1- micro g doses of A7 and 7C5 were protective,while only a 10- micro g dose of 1A2 was protective. Both A7 and 7C5 were also protective in mice lacking either an intact alternative (FB(-/-)) or classical (C4(-/-)) complement pathway,but 1A2 was not protective in either strain. Our data suggest that PPS-3 consists of epitopes that can elicit both highly protective and less protective antibodies and that the superior efficacies of certain antibodies may be a function of their structures and/or specificities. Further investigation of relationships between structure,specificity,and efficacy for defined MAbs to PPS may identify antibody features that might be useful surrogates for antibody (and vaccine) efficacy.

Thrombopoietin cooperates with FLT3-ligand in the generation of plasmacytoid dendritic cell precursors from human hematopoietic progenitors.
Type 1 interferon-producing cells (IPCs),also known as plasmacytoid dendritic cell (DC) precursors,represent the key effectors in antiviral innate immunity and triggers for adaptive immune responses. IPCs play important roles in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and in modulating immune responses after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Understanding IPC development from hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) may provide critical information in controlling viral infection,autoimmune SLE,and graft-versus-host disease. FLT3-ligand (FLT3-L) represents a key IPC differentiation factor from HPCs. Although hematopoietic cytokines such as interleukin-3 (IL-3),IL-7,stem cell factor (SCF),macrophage-colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF),and granulocyte M-CSF (GM-CSF) promote the expansion of CD34+ HPCs in FLT3-L culture,they strongly inhibit HPC differentiation into IPCs. Here we show that thrombopoietin (TPO) cooperates with FLT3-L,inducing CD34+ HPCs to undergo a 400-fold expansion in cell numbers and to generate more than 6 x 10(6) IPCs per 10(6) CD34+ HPCs within 30 days in culture. IPCs derived from HPCs in FLT3-L/TPO cultures display blood IPC phenotype and have the capacity to produce large amounts of interferon-alpha (IFN-alpha) and to differentiate into mature DCs. This culture system,combined with the use of adult peripheral blood CD34+ HPCs purified from G-CSF-mobilized donors,permits the generation of more than 10(9) IPCs from a single blood donor.

Human mesenchymal stem cells modulate B-cell functions.
Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) suppress T-cell and dendritic-cell function and represent a promising strategy for cell therapy of autoimmune diseases. Nevertheless,no information is currently available on the effects of hMSCs on B cells,which may have a large impact on the clinical use of these cells. hMSCs isolated from the bone marrow and B cells purified from the peripheral blood of healthy donors were cocultured with different B-cell tropic stimuli. B-cell proliferation was inhibited by hMSCs through an arrest in the G0/G1 phase of the cell cycle and not through the induction of apoptosis. A major mechanism of B-cell suppression was hMSC production of soluble factors,as indicated by transwell experiments. hMSCs inhibited B-cell differentiation because IgM,IgG,and IgA production was significantly impaired. CXCR4,CXCR5,and CCR7 B-cell expression,as well as chemotaxis to CXCL12,the CXCR4 ligand,and CXCL13,the CXCR5 ligand,were significantly down-regulated by hMSCs,suggesting that these cells affect chemotactic properties of B cells. B-cell costimulatory molecule expression and cytokine production were unaffected by hMSCs. These results further support the potential therapeutic use of hMSCs in immune-mediated disorders,including those in which B cells play a major role.

Donor natural killer cell allorecognition of missing self in haploidentical hematopoietic transplantation for acute myeloid leukemia: challenging its predictive value.
We analyzed 112 patients with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia (61 in complete remission [CR]; 51 in relapse),who received human leukocyte-antigen (HLA)-haploidentical transplants from natural killer (NK) alloreactive (n = 51) or non-NK alloreactive donors (n = 61). NK alloreactive donors possessed HLA class I,killer-cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) ligand(s) which were missing in the recipients,KIR gene(s) for missing self recognition on recipient targets,and alloreactive NK clones against recipient targets. Transplantation from NK-alloreactive donors was associated with a significantly lower relapse rate in patients transplanted in CR (3% versus 47%) (P textgreater .003),better event-free survival in patients transplanted in relapse (34% versus 6%,P = .04) and in remission (67% versus 18%,P = .02),and reduced risk of relapse or death (relative risk versus non-NK-alloreactive donor,0.48; 95% CI,0.29-0.78; P textgreater .001). In all patients we tested the missing ligand" model which pools KIR ligand mismatched transplants and KIR ligand-matched transplants from donors possessing KIR(s) for which neither donor nor recipient have HLA ligand(s). Only transplantation from NK-alloreactive donors is associated with a survival advantage."

High-resolution video monitoring of hematopoietic stem cells cultured in single-cell arrays identifies new features of self-renewal.
To search for new indicators of self-renewing hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs),highly purified populations were isolated from adult mouse marrow,micromanipulated into a specially designed microscopic array,and cultured for 4 days in 300 ng/ml Steel factor,20 ng/ml IL-11,and 1 ng/ml flt3-ligand. During this period,each cell and its progeny were imaged at 3-min intervals by using digital time-lapse photography. Individual clones were then harvested and assayed for HSCs in mice by using a 4-month multilineage repopulation endpoint (textgreater1% contribution to lymphoid and myeloid lineages). In a first experiment,6 of 14 initial cells (43%) and 17 of 61 clones (28%) had HSC activity,demonstrating that HSC self-renewal divisions had occurred in vitro. Characteristics associated with HSC activity included longer cell-cycle times and the absence of uropodia on a majority of cells within the clone during the final 12 h of culture. Combining these criteria maximized the distinction of clones with HSC activity from those without and identified a subset of 27 of the 61 clones. These 27 clones included all 17 clones that had HSC activity; a detection efficiency of 63% (2.26 times more frequently than in the original group). The utility of these characteristics for discriminating HSC-containing clones was confirmed in two independent experiments where all HSC-containing clones were identified at a similar 2- to 3-fold-greater efficiency. These studies illustrate the potential of this monitoring system to detect new features of proliferating HSCs that are predictive of self-renewal divisions.
