Abstract Objective: Due to absence of a single definitive marker of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and low incidence in human bone marrow, the primary culture of MSCs, conventionally isolated with its characteristic of adherent, were considered to be heterogeneous containing of several subpopulations, which had currently limited our understanding of their biology and therapeutic applications. In our previous study, a novel murine monoclonal antibody (McAb) ZUC3 was produced by hybridoma technology, which was specifically reactive with human MSCs, while showed negative cross-reactivity when screened against a variety of human tissues. Now, ZUC3 antigen positive MSCs population would be further identified by magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS). Methods: Bone marrow were taken from the iliac crest of normal healthy adult volunteers, and mononuclear cells were separated by density gradient centrifugation, then separated into positively- and negatively-labelled fractions with McAb ZUC3 by immunomagnetic activated cell sorting. The purity of positive cells was analyzed by flow cytometry, then ZUC3 antigen positive and negative cells were plated respectively in human MSCs medium consisting of 10% FBS, LG-DMEM. Characteristics of ZUC3 antigen positive cells phenotype was analyzed by flow cytometry, and proliferation and multiple differentiation potential of the cells was observed in vitro. Results: Flow cytometric analysis showed that ZUC3 antigen expression by cultured MSCs and mononuclear cells derived from bone marrow were 91.31±2.92%, 0.96±0.28% respectively, and western blotting showed the molecular mass of antigen was about 33KD. The purity of the recovered fractions for ZUC3 by MACS was 76.82±6.32%. The positive cells have adhered to culture flask in vitro, and the quantity of adhered cells that had fibroblast-like morphology increased and proliferated during primary expansion period, while the negative cells were observed as round shape cells without any proliferation. It was demonstrated that ZUC3 antigen positive cells continued growth with spindle-shape, extending beyond 30 population doublings in long-term culture. Analyzed by flow cytometry, the culture-expanded positive cells were uniformly positive for CD29, CD44, CD105, CD106, and lack typical hematopoietic antigens such as CD14, CD34, CD45, HLA-DR, which demonstrated that ZUC3 postive cells sorted from bone marrow mononuclear cells by McAb were MSCs. With proper medium, the ZUC3 antigen positive cells could be successfully induced to differentiate into adipocytes, osteoblasts, and neuro-like cells which were positive of neuron markers such as nestin, NSE and NF-M. Conclusion: ZUC3 McAb was a specific surface marker against human MSCs for cell sorting. The ZUC3 antigen positive cells separated from bone marrow mononuclear cells had potential capacity of high proliferation and multiple differentiation.

Abstract Background: Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are clonal hematopoietic disorders characterized by no efficient hematopoiesis and frequent progression to acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Even in low risk MDS, clonal hematopoiesis already dominates at diagnosis, and clones found in secondary AML originate from the MDS stage of disease, highlighting the need to specifically target the MDS-initiating clone. PF-0449913 is a potent and selective hedgehog pathway inhibitor that act by binding Smoothened (SMO) and blocking signal transduction. PF-04449913 demonstrated preliminary antitumor activity in a phase I trial, when given as monotherapy in patients with several hematopoietic malignancy. Jak1 tyrosine kinase plays an important role in cytokine signaling. Jak1 functions to phosphorylate STAT3 transcription factor, which triggers their dimerization and nuclear translocation. In the present study, we investigated the combining effects of PF-04449913 and Jak1 inhibitor, PF-6667291 in terminal differentiation of MDS-derived induced potent stem cells (iPSC). Methods: We generated iPSCs from bone marrow mononuclear cells of two MDS patients (RAEB1 and RAEB2 by WHO classification) with chromosome 5 deletion and complex karyotypic abnormalities, respectively. Karyotyping analysis revealed that MDS-derived iPSCs have identical abnormalities to primary MDS cells. We also generated iPSCs from bone marrow mononuclear cells of normal volunteer as control. To investigate the effects of PF-04449913 on self-renewal and the relevance as a therapeutic target in MDS initiating cells, we examined the activity of PF-04449913 against MDS-derived iPSCs transferred NOD/SCID mice in vivo. NOD/SCID mice were injected subcutaneously with MDS-derived iPSCs or normal iPSCs then treated with PF-04449913 (100 mg/kg; p.o.) from day 10 for 28 days. We also used MDS-L, a myelodysplastic cell line established from MDS patient with del (5q) and complex karyotypic abnormalities for in vitro studies. In vitro re-differentiation of MDS-iPSCs was performed with differentiation media (30 ng/ml VEGF, 30 ng/ml BMP-4, 40 ng/ml SCF, 50 ng/ml Activin) for 4 days. At day 14, a single cell suspension expressing CD34+CD38- was achieved with hematopoietic cytokines (300 ng/ml Flt-3 ligand, 10 ng/ml IL-3, 10 ng/ml IL-6, 50 ng/ml G-CSF, 25 ng/ml BMP-4). Results: Both MDS-derived iPSCs transferred NOD/SCID mice and normal iPSCs transferred NOD/SCID mice demonstrated the engraftment of CD34+CD38- positive cells by flow cytometry. However, the treatment with PF-04449913 reduced the population of CD34+CD38- positive cells in MDS-derived iPSCs transferred NOD/SCID mice. We isolated human CD45+ cells from the spleen of mice from each treatment group and injected equivalent numbers of CD45+ cells into secondary recipients. Following 50 days, all mice treated with vehicle engrafted with CD34+CD38- positive cells. In contrast, CD34+CD38- positive cells engraftment was not detected in recipient mice (n=3) from PF-04449913-treated donors. These results demonstrate the persistent effects of PF-0449913 on long term self-renewing MDS-initiating cells. Next we performed in vitro re-differentiation of MDS-iPSCs, which express CD34+CD38- population. CD34+CD38- cells from MDS-derived iPSCs were cultured with 2 μM of PF-04449913 and 1 μM of PF-6667291 in STEMdiff APEL medium for 14 days for CFC activities. Treatments with PF-04449913 and PF-6667291 significantly reduced the colony formations of mature erythroid, granulocyte-macrophage, and mixed of these hematopoietic cells. To identify the mechanisms that limit the terminal differentiation of MDS-derived iPSC by PF-04449913 and PF-6667291, MDS-L cells were cultured with PF-04449913 and PF-6667291 for 72 hrs. The treatments with PF-04449913 and PF-6667291 induced the expressions of p21Cip1, cleaved PARP and reduced the expression of BMI-1, c-Myc, Nanog, and phospho-Stat3. Conclusion: Our preclinical results indicate that the combination with PF-04449913 and PF-6667291 have potential as an important option for controlling the terminal differentiation of MDS-initiating cells. It is expected that the combination with PF-04449913 and PF-6667291 may become extremely useful therapeutic interventions in a number of hematological neoplasms, including MDS.

Cd34 Antigen

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.

Bone marrow-derived CD34 + CXCR4 + progenitor cells are mobilized into peripheral blood early in acute myocardial infarction (MI). Adult murine bone marrow contains population of small CD34 + lin − CD45 − CXCR4 + cells expressing markers of pluripotent stem cells (PSC) SSEA, Oct-4 and Nanog. This population of very small embryonic-like cells (VSEL) has unique morphology (small size 2– 4 μm, large nucleus, euchromatin) and capability to form embrioid bodies (EB). Murine EB-derived cells can in vitro differentiate into cells from all three germ layers including cardiomyocytes. We hypothesized that in patients with acute MI small cells expressing the VSEL immunophenotype and PSC markers are present in bone marrow and mobilized into peripheral blood. Blood samples (20 mL) from 18 patients with acute MI were obtained after 12 hours, 2 and 5 days after symptoms onset. Bone marrow samples (20 mL) were obtained from 2 patients with acute MI and 3 healthy volunteers. Mononuclear cells were isolated using hypotonic lysis and samples were analyzed by FACS. Mobilization of following cell populations was confirmed: hematopoietic lin − CD45 + CXCR4 + , lin − CD45 + CD133 + , lin − CD45 + CD34 + and non-hematopoietic (VSEL) lin − CD45 − CXCR4 + , lin − CD45 − CD133 + , lin − CD45 − CD34 + . Analysis of the cell number using lymphocyte gate showed more significant increase of CD45 + (hematopoietic) populations of lin − CD34 + , lin − CD133 + and lin − CXCR4 + cells. After gating for small events (VSEL size range) we found more significant mobilization of small, non-hematopoietic populations of lin − CD34 + , lin − CD133 + and lin − CXCR4 + cells (Table ). The expression of PSC markers (Oct-4, Nanog, SSEA-1) in VSEL was confirmed using real-time RT-PCR. Conclusion: We report for the first time that acute MI is associated with mobilization of non-hematopoietic VSELs expressing pluripotent stem cells markers.

Abstract Data from many laboratory and clinical investigations indicate that CD34+ cells comprise approximately 1% of human bone marrow (BM) mononuclear cells, including the progenitor cells of all the lymphohematopoietic lineages and lymphohematopoietic stem cells (stem cells). Because stem cells are an important but rare cell type in the CD34+ cell population, investigators have subdivided the CD34+ cell population to further enrich stem cells. The CD34+/CD38-cell subset comprises less than 10% of human CD34+ adult BM cells (equivalent to < 0.1% of marrow mononuclear cells), lacks lineage (lin) antigens, contains cells with in vitro replating capacity, and is predicted to be highly enriched for stem cells. The present investigation tested whether the CD34+/CD38-subset of adult human marrow generates human hematopoiesis after transfer to preimmune fetal sheep. CD34+/ CD38- cells purified from marrow using immunomagnetic microspheres or fluorescence-activated cell sorting generated easily detectable, long- term, multilineage human hematopoiesis in the human-fetal sheep in vivo model. In contrast, transfer of CD34+/CD38+ cells to preimmune fetal sheep generated only short-term human hematopoiesis, possibly suggesting that the CD34+/CD38+ cell population contains relatively early multipotent hematopoletic progenitor cells, but not stem cells. This work extends the prior in vitro evidence that the earliest cells in fetal and adult human marrow lack CD38 expression. In summary, the CD34+/ CD38-cell population has a high capacity for long-term multilineage hematopoietic engraftment, suggesting the presence of stem cells in this minor adult human marrow cell subset.

Background The objective of this paper is to analyze the role of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) on the differentiation of T follicular helper (Tfh) cells in lupus-prone mice. Methods Bone marrow cells were isolated from C57BL/6 (B6) mice and cultured in vitro, and surface markers were identified by flow cytometry. Naïve CD4+ T cells, splenocytes and Tfh cells were isolated from B6 mice spleens and co-cultured with BM-MSCs. The proliferation and the differentiation of CD4+ T cells and Tfh cells were analyzed by flow cytometry. Lupus-prone MRL/Mp-lpr/lpr (MRL/lpr) mice were treated via intravenous injection with expanded BM-MSCs, the differentiation of Tfh cells was detected, and the relief of lupus nephritis was analyzed. Results MSCs could be successfully induced from bone marrow cells, and cultured BM-MSCs could inhibit T cell proliferation dose-dependently. BM-MSCs could prevent Tfh cell development from naïve CD4+ T cells and splenocytes. BM-MSCs could inhibit IL-21 gene expression and cytokine production and inhibit isolated Tfh cells and STAT3 phosphorylation. In vivo study proved that BM-MSCs intravenous injection could effectively inhibit Tfh cell expansion and IL-21 production, alleviate lupus nephritis, and prolong the survival rate of lupus-prone mice. Conclusions BM-MSCs could effectively inhibit the differentiation of Tfh cells both in vitro and in vivo. BM-MSC treatment could relieve lupus nephritis, which indicates that BM-MSCs might be a promising therapeutic method for the treatment of SLE.

ABSTRACT In veterinary medicine, the cell therapy is still unexplored and there are many unanswered questions that researchers tend to extrapolate to humans in an attempt to treat certain injuries. Investigating this subject in nonhuman primates turns out to be an unparalleled opportunity to better understand the dynamics of stem cells against some diseases. Thus, we aimed to compare the efficiency of bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMMCs) and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from adipose tissue of Chlorocebus aethiops in induced bone injury. Ten animals were used, male adults subjected, to bone injury the iliac crests. The MSCs were isolated by and cultured. In an autologous manner, the BMMCs were infused in the right iliac crest, and MSCs from adipose tissue in the left iliac crest. After 4.8 months, the right iliac crests fully reconstructed, while left iliac crest continued to have obvious bone defects for up to 5.8 months after cell infusion. The best option for treatment of injuries with bone tissue loss in old world primates is to use autologous MSCs from adipose tissue, suggesting we can extrapolate the results to humans, since there is phylogenetic proximity between species.

Abstract Multipotent Adult Progenitor Cells (MAPC) are bone marrow derived stem cells that can be extensively expanded in vitro and can differentiate in vivo and in vitro into cells of all three germinal layers: ectoderm, mesoderm, endoderm. The origin of MAPC within bone marrow (BM) is unknown. MAPC are believed to be derived from the BM stroma compartment as they are isolated within the adherent cell component. Numerous studies of bone marrow chimeras in human and mouse point to a host origin of bone marrow stromal cells, including mesenchymal stem cells. We report here that following syngeneic bone marrow transplants into lethally irradiated C57Bl/6 mice, MAPC are of donor origin. When MAPC were isolated from BM chimeras (n=12, 4–12 weeks post-syngeneic BM transplant from a transgenic mouse ubiquitously expressing GFP), a mixture of large and small GFP-positive and GFP-negative cells were seen early in culture. While the large cells stained positive for stroma cell markers (smooth muscle actin), mesenchymal stem cell makers (CD73, CD105, CD44) or macrophages (CD45, CD14), the small cells were negative for all these markers and after 30 cell doublings, these cells displayed the classical phenotype of MAPC (CD45−,CD105−, CD44−, CD73−, FLK-1+(vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2, VEGFR2), Sca-1+,CD13+). In a second experiment, BM obtained one month post BM transplant (n=3) was harvested and mononuclear cells were sorted as GFP-positive and GFP-negative cells and were cultured in MAPC expansion medium. MAPC grew from the GFP-positive fraction. These GFP positive cells displayed the typical MAPC-like immunophenotypes, displayed a normal diploid karyotype and were expanded for more than 50 cell doublings and differentiated into endothelial cells, hepatocytes and neurons. To rule out the possibility that MAPC are the product of cell fusion between a host and a donor cell either in vivo or in our in vitro culture conditions, we performed sex mismatched transplants of female GFP donor BM cells into a male host. BM from 5 chimeras were harvested 4 weeks after transplant and MAPC cultures were established. MAPC colonies were then sorted as GFP-positive and GFP- negative and analyzed for the presence of Y-chromosome by FISH analysis. As expected all GFP-negative (host cells) contained the Y-chromosome whereas all GFP-positive cells (donor cells) were negative for the Y-chromosome by FISH. This proves that MAPC are not derived from an in vitro or in vivo fusion event. In a third study, BM mononuclear cells from mice that had been previously BM-transplanted with syngeneic GFP-positive donors (n=3) were transplanted into a second set of syngeneic recipients (n=9). Two months after the second transplant, BM was harvested and mononuclear cells were cultured in MAPC medium. The secondary recipients also contained GFP-positive MAPC. This is the first demonstration that BM transplantation leads to the transfer of cells that upon isolation in vitro generate MAPCs and, whatever the identity of this cell may be, is eliminated by irradiation. We believe this is an important observation as MAPC hold great clinical potential for stem cell and/or gene therapy and, thus, BM transplant may serve as a way to deliver and reconstitute the MAPC population. In addition, this study provides insight into the nature of MAPC. The capacity to be transplantable within unfractionated BM transplant renders a functional and physiological distinction between MAPC and BM stromal cells. This study validates the use of unfractionated BM transplants to study the nature and possible in vivo role of MAPC in the BM.
