A scheme is presented whereby pluripotent hemopoietic stem cells (PHSC) from rat bone marrow can be enriched 320-fold with the aid of the fluorescence- activated cell sorter. This scheme is based on the observations that PHSC are strongly positive for Thy-1 antigen (upper 10th percentile); have light- scattering properties (size distribution) between those of bone marrow lymphocytes and myeloid progenitor cells; and are relatively resistant to cortisone. It is estimated that PHSC may constitute 80 percent of the cells isolated according to these parameters. Candidate PHSC are described at the light and electron microscopic levels. At least two populations of accessory cells appear to influence the number and/or the nature of the hemopoietic colonies that form in the in vivo spleen colony-forming unit assay. Putative amplifier cells are strongly Thy-1(+) and cortisone sensitive; putative suppressor cells are weakly Thy-1(+) and cortisone resistant. Three subsets of granulocyte (G) -macrophage (M) progenitor cells (in vitro colony-forming cells [CFC]) are identified on the basis of relative fluorescence intensity for Thy-1 antigen: G-CFC are strongly Thy-l(+); M-CFC are weakly Thy-l(+); and cells that produce mixed G and M CFC have intermediate levels of Thy-1. GM-cluster-forming cells and mature G and M are Thy-1(-). The results suggest that G-CFC are bipotential cells that give rise to G and M-CFC; and that the latter produce mature M through a cluster- forming cell intermediate. Thy-1 antigen is also demonstrated on members of the eosinophil, megakaryocyte, erythrocyte, and lymphocyte cell series in rat bone marrow. In each instance, the relative concentration of Thy-1 antigen is inversely related to the state of cellular differentiation.

AbstractDiallyl sulphide (DAS), the pungent component of garlic, is known to have several medicinal properties and has recently been shown to have radiomitigative properties. The present study was performed to better understand its mode of action in rendering radiomitigation. Evaluation of the colonogenic ability of hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) on methocult media, proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), and transplantation of stem cells were performed. The supporting tissue of HSCs was also evaluated by examining the histology of bone marrow and in vitro colony-forming unit–fibroblast (CFU-F) count. Alterations in the levels of IL-5, IL-6 and COX-2 were studied as a function of radiation or DAS treatment. It was observed that an increase in proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells occurred by postirradiation DAS administration. It also resulted in increased circulating and bone marrow homing of transplanted stem cells. Enhancement in bone marrow cellularity, CFU-F count, and cytokine IL-5 level were also evident. All those actions of DAS that could possibly add to its radiomitigative potential and can be attributed to its HDAC inhibitory properties, as was observed by the reversal radiation induced increase in histone acetylation.

Cells capable of forming colonies in spleens of irradiated mice (CFU) are lost temporarily when bone marrow cells from rats or mice are maintained in culture. Rat marrow CFU go through a minimum at about 3 days after which there is a slow increase in the number of CFU in culture, reaching a maximum at 9 days. Mouse marrow CFU reach a minimum at 3 days and a maximum at 7 days. Some rat marrow CFU persist in culture for as long as 28 days.

The CD34 antigen is expressed on most, if not all, human hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and hematopoietic progenitor cells, and its use for the enrichment of HSCs with repopulating potential is well established. However, despite homology between human and murine CD34, its expression on subsets of primitive murine hematopoietic cells has not been examined in full detail. To address this issue, we used a novel monoclonal antibody against murine CD34 (RAM34) to fractionate bone marrow (BM) cells that were then assayed in vitro and in vivo with respect to differing functional properties. A total of 4% to 17% of murine BM cells expressed CD34 at intermediate to high levels, representing a marked improvement over the resolution obtained with previously described polyclonal anti-CD34 antibodies. Sixty percent of CD34+ BM cells lacked lineage (Lin) markers expressed on mature lymphoid or myeloid cells. Eighty-five percent of Sca-1+Thy-1(10)Lin- /10 cells that are highly enriched in HSCs expressed intermediate, but not high, levels of CD34 antigen. The remainder of these phenotypically defined stem cells were CD34-. In vitro colony-forming cells, day-8 and -12 spleen colony-forming units (CFU-S), primitive progenitors able to differentiate into B lymphocytes in vitro or into T lymphocytes in SCID mice, and stem cells with radioprotective and competitive long-term repopulating activity were all markedly enriched in the CD34+ fraction after single-parameter cell sorting. In contrast, CD34-BM cells were depleted of such activities at the cell doses tested and were capable of only short-term B-cell production in vitro. The results indicate that a significant proportion of murine HSCs and multilineage progenitor cells express detectable levels of CD34, and that the RAM34 monoclonal antibody is a useful tool to subset primitive murine hematopoietic cells. These findings should facilitate more direct comparisons of the biology of CD34+ murine and human stem and progenitor cells.

Цель исследования состояла в выявлении информативных клеточных маркеров сосудистых осложнений, регенерации микрососудистой сети и воспаления в венозной крови здоровых волонтеров, больных с метаболическим синдромом, сахарным диабетом 1 и 2 типа. Методы. Обследованы больные с метаболическим синдромом (МС), диабетом 2 типа без осложнений, диабетом 1 типа средней степени тяжести и здоровые волонтеры. Диагноз пациентов подтвержден общеклиническими, биохимическими, коагулометрическими и иммуноферментными методами исследования, для оценки экспрессии антигенов использовался многопараметрический цитометрический анализ. Результаты. При анализе экспрессии маркеров показано изменение числа эндотелиальных клеток, мезенхимальных стволовых клеток (МСК) и гемопоэтических стволовых клеток (ГСК) в крови в зависимости от патологии. Эндотелиальные клетки миелоидного (CD45CD14CD34CD309CD144CD31) и немиелоидного (CD45CD14CD34CD309CD144CD31) происхождения, CD309-эндотелиальные клетки и МСК (CD44CD73CD90CD105) предлагаются в качестве маркеров повреждения эндотелия при диабетической симптоматике. При этом ГСК (CD45CD34) могут выступать ценным диагностическим и прогностическим маркером воспаления. Заключение. Для подтверждения сосудистых повреждений и прогноза развития осложнений при диабете 1 и 2 типа в венозной крови пациентов целесообразно оценивать эндотелиальные прогениторные клетки (ЭПК) не костномозговой локализации (CD31CD309CD144) и костномозговой локализации (CD34CD309), и ЭПК c высоким регенеративным потенциалом (CD45CD34CD31CD144). Циркулирующие ЭПК, формирующие колонии in vitro (CD45CD34CD31), рекомендуется использовать в качестве дифференциального маркера состояния регенерации эндотелия при диабете 2 типа. The aim of this study was to identify mesenchymal stem cells (MSC), hematopoietic stem cells (HSC), mature endothelial cells, and endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) in the blood of healthy volunteers, patients with metabolic syndrome, and type 1 and 2 diabetes mellitus as new, informative cellular markers of vascular complications, endothelial regeneration, and inflammation. Methods. The diagnosis was confirmed by general clinical, biochemical, coagulometeric and ELISA studies; multi-parameter cytometric assay was used for evaluation of antigen expression. Results. Changes in the count of MSC, HSC, mature endothelial cells, and endothelial progenitor cells in blood of patients with metabolic syndrome and type 1 and 2 diabetes depended on the type of pathology. We propose using endothelial cells of myeloid (CD45CD14CD34CD309CD144CD31) and non-myeloid origin (CD45CD14CD34CD309CD144CD31), CD309-endothelial cells, and MSCs with the CD44CD73CD90CD105 phenotype as nonspecific markers of endothelial damage in presence of diabetic symptoms. Furthermore, HSCs (CD45CD34) can be used as a valuable diagnostic and prognostic marker of inflammation. Conclusions. It is relevant to evaluate EPCs of non-bone marrow localization (CD31CD309CD144) and bone marrow localization (CD34CD309) and EPCs with a high regenerative potential (CD45CD34CD31CD144) in the blood of patients with type 1 and 2 diabetes to confirm the presence of vascular damage and predict development of complications. Circulating, in vitro colony-forming EPCs (CD45CD34CD31) are recommended as a differential marker for inhibition of endothelial regeneration in type 2 diabetes.

The effects of cyclophosphamide, vinblastine and azathioprine on spleen and bone marrow hemopoietic stem cells (assayed as CFU-S, CFU-C and CFU-E) during an early phase of erythropoietic response to bleeding have been measured. Differences of effect seem to be mainly related to the number of progenitor cells present at the time of drug administration.
