The rate of reconstitution following hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation differs widely depending on the tissue source of the cells infused. To test the hypothesis that variability in engraftment kinetics is related to differences in the efficiency with which intravenously transplanted HSCs “home” to the bone marrow (BM), the homing properties of murine fetal liver (FL), adult BM, and mobilized peripheral blood (MPB) cells were compared. Lethally irradiated mice transplanted with 2 × 106 FL, BM, or MPB cells exhibited sequentially slower recovery of circulating leukocytes and platelets that correlates with the progressively lower frequency of colony-forming cells (CFCs) in these tissues. However, differences in the rate and degree of early and long-term reconstitution were maintained even after infusing equal numbers of CFCs derived from FL, BM, and MPB. To compare the homing of progenitors from these tissues, cells were labeled with fluorescent PKH26 dye and injected into lethally irradiated hosts. Three hours later, PKH26+ cells were reisolated from the BM and spleen by fluorescence-activated cell sorting and assayed for in vitro CFCs. Despite the higher level of very late antigen (VLA)-2, VLA-4, and VLA-5 on Sca-1+c-kit+ cells from FL compared to BM, 10-fold fewer FL CFCs homed to hematopoietic organs than those from BM. MPB cells homed slightly better, but still less efficiently than BM cells. Therefore, clonogenic cells from different tissues exhibit striking variations in homing efficiency that does not necessarily correlate with engraftment kinetics. Homing is likely counterbalanced by intrinsic differences in proliferative potential that ultimately determine the rate of hematopoietic reconstitution.

Abstract Background Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) exhibit active abilities to suppress or modulate deleterious immune responses by various molecular mechanisms. These cells are the subject of major translational efforts as cellular therapies for immune-related diseases and transplantations. Plenty of preclinical studies and clinical trials employing MSCs have shown promising safety and efficacy outcomes and also shed light on the modifications in the frequency and function of regulatory T cells (T regs). Nevertheless, the mechanisms underlying these observations are not well known. Direct cell contact, soluble factor production, and turning antigen-presenting cells into tolerogenic phenotypes, have been proposed to be among possible mechanisms by which MSCs produce an immunomodulatory environment for T reg expansion and activity. We and others demonstrated that adult bone marrow (BM)-MSCs suppress adaptive immune responses directly by inhibiting the proliferation of CD4+ helper and CD8+ cytotoxic T cells but also indirectly through the induction of T regs. In parallel, we demonstrated that fetal liver (FL)-MSCs demonstrates much longer-lasting immunomodulatory properties compared to BM-MSCs, by inhibiting directly the proliferation and activation of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. Therefore, we investigated if FL-MSCs exert their strong immunosuppressive effect also indirectly through induction of T regs. Methods MSCs were obtained from FL and adult BM and characterized according to their surface antigen expression, their multilineage differentiation, and their proliferation potential. Using different in vitro combinations, we performed co-cultures of FL- or BM-MSCs and murine CD3+CD25−T cells to investigate immunosuppressive effects of MSCs on T cells and to quantify their capacity to induce functional T regs. Results We demonstrated that although both types of MSC display similar cell surface phenotypic profile and differentiation capacity, FL-MSCs have significantly higher proliferative capacity and ability to suppress both CD4+ and CD8+ murine T cell proliferation and to modulate them towards less active phenotypes than adult BM-MSCs. Moreover, their substantial suppressive effect was associated with an outstanding increase of functional CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ T regs compared to BM-MSCs. Conclusions These results highlight the immunosuppressive activity of FL-MSCs on T cells and show for the first time that one of the main immunoregulatory mechanisms of FL-MSCs passes through active and functional T reg induction.

Multiple replication-defective retrovirus vectors were tested for their ability to transfer and express human adenosine deaminase in vitro and in vivo in a mouse bone marrow transplantation model. High-titer virus production was obtained from vectors by using both a retrovirus long terminal repeat promoter and internal transcriptional units with human c-fos and herpes virus thymidine kinase promoters. After infection of primary murine bone marrow with one of these vectors, human adenosine deaminase was detected in 60 to 85% of spleen colony-forming units and in the blood of 14 of 14 syngeneic marrow transplant recipients. This system offers the opportunity to assess methods for increasing efficiency of gene transfer, for regulation of expression of foreign genes in hematopoietic progenitors, and for long-term measurement of the stability of expression in these cells.

Murine bone marrow was either singly or doubly infected with retroviral vectors expressing v-myc (OK10) or v-Ha-ras. The infected bone marrow was cultured in a system that supports the long-term growth of B-lineage lymphoid cells. While the v-myc vector by itself had no apparent effect on lymphoid culture establishment and growth, infection with the v-Ha-ras vector or coinfection with both v-myc and v-Ha-ras vectors led to the appearance of growth-stimulated cell populations. Clonal pre-B-cell lines stably expressing v-Ha-ras alone or both v-myc and v-Ha-ras grew out of these cultures. In comparison with cell lines expressing v-Ha-ras alone, cell lines expressing both v-myc and v-Ha-ras grew to higher densities, had reduced dependence on a feeder layer for growth, and had a marked increase in ability to grow in soft-agar medium. The cell lines expressing both oncogenes were highly tumorigenic in syngeneic animals. These experiments show that the v-myc oncogene in synergy with v-Ha-ras can play a direct role in the in vitro transformation of murine B lymphoid cells.

There is evidence indicating that stromal proteoglycans are an important functional component of the hematopoietic microenvironment. Proteoglycan synthesis was therefore investigated in the MS3–2A and D2XRII hematopoietic stromal cell lines. These lines differ in their capacity to support hematopoiesis in vitro, D2XRII supporting in vitro hematopoiesis, whereas MS3–2A does not. Cells were labeled with 35S- sulfate as precursor, and 4 mol/L guanidine HCl extracts of cells and media were analyzed by ion-exchange chromatography, cesium chloride density gradient centrifugation, and molecular sieve chromatography. Proteoglycans were further examined by enzymatic and chemical digestions. MS3–2A cells produced at least three proteoglycan species. Two chondroitin/dermatan sulfate (CS/DS) proteoglycans, Kav = 0.40 and Kav = 0.68 on Sepharose CL-2B, were present primarily in the medium. The respective glycosaminoglycan molecular weight (mol wt) values were 38 kd and 40 kd. A heparan sulfate (HS) proteoglycan of Kav = 0.58 and glycosaminoglycan mol wt 36 kd was present primarily in the cell layer extract. D2XRII cells synthesized two HS proteoglycans. The larger (Kav = 0.45; glycosaminoglycan mol wt, 30 kd) was of low density on gradient centrifugation and more prominent in the cell layer extracts, whereas the smaller (Kav = 0.68; glycosaminoglycan mol wt, 38 kd) was dense and present mainly in the culture medium. A single CS/DS proteoglycan species of Kav 0.78 and average glycosaminoglycan of mol wt 18 kd was present in roughly equal amounts in the medium and in the cell layer. MS3–2A and D2XRII thus appear phenotypically distinct with respect to proteoglycan synthesis. These differences are discussed in relation to the microenvironmental function of bone marrow stromal elements.

Abstract This work is a continuation of our studies that showed that interleukin- 2 (IL-2)-activated murine bone marrow (ABM) cells have potent cytotoxic potential against murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV)-infected targets in vitro, without loss of reconstitutive ability in vivo. Our data show that ABM cells lyse the MCMV-infected cells in vitro, at both acute and chronic stages of infection; this lysis is specific for the MCMV- infected cells. ABM cells supplemented with IL-2 therapy virtually eradicated the viral infection and prolonged the survival of MCMV- infected Balb/c mice, whether or not they were immunocompromised by irradiation (P less than .001 in both situations). Efficacy of ABM cells alone or IL-2 alone was less than the combination of ABM cells and IL-2. The efficacy of combination treatment with ABM cells and IL-2 in improving the survival of MCMV-infected mice was comparable, whether used in a preventive or a therapeutic setting. Therapy with ABM plus IL- 2 also prevented the reactivation of chronic MCMV infection after irradiation. Preliminary findings indicate that Thy-1+ and asialo GM1+ cells limited the MCMV proliferation by approximately 30% and 80%, respectively, while BM macrophages limited the proliferation of MCMV by 100%. These results suggest that BM transplantation (BMT) with ABM cells followed by IL-2 therapy may constitute a novel strategy to improve the host resistance against cytomegalovirus infection after BMT.
