Abstract Abstract 3816 Poster Board III-752 Introduction Recent studies in patients with MDS have clearly demonstrated the clinical efficacy of lenalidomide. However, its exact mechanisms of action have not been elucidated yet. Myelosuppression is the most common adverse event and seems to be dependent on dose as well MDS subtype, being rather infrequent in patients other than del5q. The aim of this study was to investigate whether lenalidomide affects the bone marrow microenvironment. Therefore, we analyzed in-vitro characteristics of isolated mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) from MDS patients and from healthy controls. Methods Bone marrow samples were collected from healthy donors (n=5) and patients with MDS (del5q MDS n=3, RA n=2, RAEB1/2 n=3). MSCs were isolated according to the standard adhesion protocol and cultured in the presence or absence of lenalidomide. Results Lenalidomide treatment of MSCs caused no morphological changes but proliferation was slightly increased. Typical surface molecules as CD73, CD90, CD105 and CD166 were expressed in MSCs from MDS patients at comparable levels to healthy controls. Lenalidomide treatment caused an upregulation of CD29 by 17.8 ± 4.4% and of CD73 by 24 ± 5.7% (mean fluorescence intensity). Investigating the cytokine production, we found lower IL-8 mRNA and protein levels in MSCs from MDS patients (mean in MDS MSC: 138.1 pg/ml vs. mean in healthy MSC: 1177 pg/ml). Interestingly, the IL-8 production can be increased by approximately 40% under lenalidomide treatment. MDS MSCs retained the capacity for adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation as well as their supportive function towards hematopoietic cells in long term culture-initiating assays (LTC-IC). However, the LTC-IC frequency was lower on MSC which had been preincubated with lenalidomide compared to controls. Lenalidomide also slightly accelerated osteogenic differentiation because mineralization started as early as on day 5 with lenalidomide whereas in the control cells first calcium deposits were visible after 7 days. Other samples showed augmented lipid vacuoles after adipogenic differentiation under lenalidomide treatment. Conclusion In conclusion, lenalidomide modulates the phenotype of MSC and leads to an increase of their IL-8 secretion by a yet unknown mechanism. Whether these in-vitro effects are associated with the clinical efficacy of this compound in patients with MDS remains to be investigated.

White Fat

Brown-like adipocytes can be induced in white fat depots by a different environmental or drug stimuli, known as “browning” or “beiging”. These brite adipocytes express thermogenin UCP1 protein and show different metabolic advantages, such as the ability to acquire a thermogenic phenotype corresponding to standard brown adipocytes that counteracts obesity. In this research, we evaluated the effects of several browning agents during white adipocyte differentiation of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs). Our in vitro findings identified two compounds that may warrant further in vivo investigation as possible anti-obesity drugs. We found that rosiglitazone and sildenafil are the most promising drug candidates for a browning treatment of obesity. These drugs are already available on the market for treating diabetes and erectile dysfunction, respectively. Thus, their off-label use may be contemplated, but it must be emphasized that some severe side effects are associated with use of these drugs.

Abstract Abstract 1566 Accumulating evidence indicates that infiltrating stromal cells contribute directly and indirectly to tumor growth in a wide range of solid cancers and hematological malignancies. In follicular lymphoma (FL), malignant B cells are found admixed with heterogeneous lymphoid-like stromal cells within invaded lymph nodes and bone marrow (BM). In addition, in vitro functional studies have underlined that mesenchymal cells recruit malignant FL B cells and protect them from spontaneous and drug-induced apoptosis. In particular, we have previously demonstrated that mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) efficiently support in vitro FL B-cell survival, especially after their engagement towards lymphoid differentiation through treatment with TNF-α and Lymphotoxin-α1β2 (TNF/LT) or after coculture with malignant B cells. However, the mechanisms of this supportive activity remain largely unknown. In this study, we used Affymetrix U133 Plus 2.0 microarrays, to compare the gene expression profile (GEP) of bone marrow-derived MSC (BM-MSC) obtained from 10 FL patients at diagnosis versus 6 age-matched healthy donors (HD). In these conditions, neither the CFU-F concentration in the BM nor the cumulative population doubling of BM-MSC significantly differed between HD and FL patients. Unsupervised analysis was able to perfectly segregate FL-MSC from HD-MSC and we identified, using supervised analyzes, a list of 408 probesets defining FL-MSC signature, including 320 nonredundant genes upregulated in FL-MSC compared to HD-MSC. We then defined the GEP of human lymphoid-like stroma using HD-MSC treated in vitro by TNF/LT and demonstrated, by a Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) approach, that the FL-MSC signature is significantly enriched for genes associated with a lymphoid-like commitment. Interestingly, CCL2 was strongly overexpressed by FL-MSC, was upregulated in HD-MSC by coculture with malignant B cells, and was detected at a higher level in FL BM plasma compared to normal BM plasma (504.4 pg/mL [23.8-4413] versus 33.9 pg/mL [5-126.1]; P <.01). In agreement, FL-MSC triggered a more potent CCL2-dependent monocyte migration than HD-MSC. Moreover, FL-MSC and macrophages cooperated to sustain malignant B-cell growth through both protection from apoptosis and enhancement of cell proliferation. Finally, FL-MSC promoted monocyte differentiation towards a proangiogenic LPS-unresponsive phenotype close to that of tumor-associated macrophages. We unraveled a key role for the Notch pathway in this process and identified an overexpression of JAGGED1 in FL-MSC compared to HD-MSC. Altogether, these results highlight the complex role of FL stromal cells that promote direct tumor B-cell growth and orchestrate FL cell niche. The identification and characterization of this intricate network of cell interactions may provide novel therapeutic targets in this disease.

Due to their ability to induce immunological tolerance in the recipient, mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) have been utilized in the treatment of various hematological and immune- and inflammation-mediated diseases. The clinical application of MSCs implies prior in vitro expansion that usually includes the use of fetal bovine serum (FBS). The present study evaluated the effect of different platelet lysate (PL) media content on the biological properties of MSCs. MSCs were isolated from the bone marrow of 13 healthy individuals and subsequently expanded in three different culture conditions (10% PL, 5% PL, 10% FBS) during 4 passages. The cells cultured in different conditions had comparable immunophenotype, clonogenic potential, and differentiation capacity. However, MSC growth was significantly enhanced in the presence of PL. Cultures supplemented with 10% PL had a higher number of cumulative population doublings in all passages when compared to the 5% PL condition (p < 0.03). Such a difference was also observed when 10% PL and 10% FBS conditions were compared (p < 0.005). A statistically significant difference in population doubling time was determined only between the 10% PL and 10% FBS conditions (p < 0.005). Furthermore, MSCs cultured in 10% PL were able to cause a 66.9% reduction of mitogen-induced lymphocyte proliferation. Three chromosome aberrations were detected in PL conditions. Since two changes occurred in the same do nor, it is possible they were donor dependent rather than caused by the culture condition. These findings demonstrate that a 10% PL condition enables a higher yield of MSCs within a shorter time without altering MSC properties, and should be favored over the 5% PL condition.

We aimed to identify a suitable method for long-term monitoring of the migration and proliferation of mesenchymal stromal cells in stroke models of rats using ferritin transgene expression by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (BMSCs) were transduced with a lentivirus containing a shuttle plasmid (pCDH-CMV-MCS-EF1-copGFP) carrying the ferritin heavy chain 1 (Fth1) gene. Ferritin expression in stromal cells was evaluated with western blotting and immunofluorescent staining. The iron uptake of Fth1-BMSCs was measured with Prussian blue staining. Following surgical introduction of middle cerebral artery occlusion, Fth1-BMSCs and superparamagnetic iron oxide- (SPIO-) labeled BMSCs were injected through the internal jugular vein. The imaging and signal intensities were monitored by diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), T2-weighted imaging (T2WI), and susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) in vitro and in vivo. Pathology was performed for comparison. We observed that the MRI signal intensity of SPIO-BMSCs gradually reduced over time. Fth1-BMSCs showed the same signal intensity between 10 and 60 days. SWI showed hypointense lesions in the SPIO-BMSC (traceable for 30 d) and Fth1-BMSC groups. T2WI was not sensitive enough to trace Fth1-BMSCs. After transplantation, Prussian blue-stained cells were observed around the infarction area and in the infarction center in both transplantation models. Fth1-BMSCs transplanted for treating focal cerebral infarction were safe, reliable, and traceable by MRI. Fth1 labeling was more stable and suitable than SPIO labeling for long-term tracking. SWI was more sensitive than T2W1 and suitable as the optimal MRI-tracking sequence.
