Abstract In bone tissues, metabolic turnover through bone resorption by osteoclasts and bone formation by osteoblasts, termed bone remodeling, is strictly controlled and maintains homeostasis. Fibrinolytic factors are expressed in osteoclasts and osteoblasts, and are involved in bone remodeling through bone resorption and formation. The repair/regeneration process after bone injury is divided into the acute inflammatory, repair, and remodeling stages. Osteoblasts, osteoclasts, chondrocytes, and macrophages involved in the bone repair process originate from hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in the bone marrow. Therefore, stem cells in the bone marrow may be strongly influenced by bone injury. The urokinase-type PA (u-PA)/plasminogen (Plg) system functions in macrophage accumulation/phagocytosis through chemokines in the acute inflammatory stage, and Plg increases blood vessel-related growth factor expression, being involved in vascularization in mice. Plasminogen activator inhivitor-1 (PAI-1) causes bone loss and delayed bone repair through the inhibition of osteoblast differentiation in a drug-induced diabetes model in mice. Plg is considered to induce transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) production in macrophages in the bone repair process, TGF-β release from the extracellular matrix through the activation of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), and stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) expression in endosteal preosteoblasts, leading to the induction of bone marrow HSPCs in mice. Based on the above, establishment of a fibrinolytic factor-targeting method efficiently promoting bone repair/regeneration and fracture healing, and development of a new osteoporosis treatment method and diagnostic marker are awaited.

Osteoblasts, osteoclasts, chondrocytes, and macrophages that participate in the bone repair process are derived from hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). However, the roles of these stem cells during the repair of injured bone tissue are still unclear. In the present study, we examined the effects of bone defect on HSCs and MSCs in bone marrow and spleen in 75 mice and its mechanism. We analyzed the HSC and MSC populations in these tissues of a mouse with femoral bone damage by using flow cytometry. The number of HSCs in the bone marrow of mice with damaged femurs was significantly lower than the number of these cells in the bone marrow of the contralateral intact femurs on day 2 after injury. Meanwhile, the number of MSCs in the bone marrow of mice with damaged femurs was significantly higher than that of the contralateral femurs. Both intraperitoneal administration of AMD3100, a C-X-C chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) antagonist, and local treatment with an anti-stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) antibody blunted the observed decrease in HSC and increase in MSC populations within the bone marrow of injured femurs. In conclusion, the present study revealed that there is a concurrent decrease and increase in the numbers of HSCs and MSCs, respectively, in the bone marrow during repair of mouse femoral bone damage. Furthermore, the SDF-1/CXCR4 system was implicated as contributing to the changes in these stem cell populations upon bone injury.

Maturation Factor

The recently cloned cytotoxic lymphocyte maturation factor (interleukin 12 [IL-12]) has been described as a growth factor for mature lymphocytes. The present study investigated whether purified recombinant murine IL-12 (rMuIL-12) also could affect the proliferation of primitive bone marrow progenitor cells. Using a population of Lin-Sca-1+ murine bone marrow stem cells, we now demonstrate that IL-12 is a potent synergistic factor for primitive hematopoietic stem cells. The synergy of IL-12 was observed in single-cell cloning assays, demonstrating that its effects are directly mediated. Specifically, IL-12 enhanced stem cell factor-induced myelopoiesis of Lin-Sca-1+ cells sevenfold, and synergized with colony-stimulating factors (CSFs) to induce proliferation of Lin-Sca-1+ stem cells. IL-12 increased the number of responding progenitor cells as well as the size of the colonies formed. IL-12 also increased colony formation of high proliferative potential colony-forming cells with multiple CSF combinations. The effects of IL-12 were concentration dependent with a 50% effective dose of 2-20 and 20-200 ng/ml, resulting in maximum stimulation. Furthermore, a neutralizing anti-IL-12 antibody blocked the synergistic effects of rMuIL-12. In addition, IL-12 was found to have synergistic effects on more committed bone marrow progenitors as well. Our results therefore suggest that in addition to being a potent lymphopoietic stimulator, IL-12 is a regulator of the growth of hematopoietic stem cells and their myeloid progeny.

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.

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.

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a malignant disorder of the hematopoietic stem cell. It has been shown that normal stem cells coexist with malignant stem cells in the bone marrow of patients with chronic-phase CML. To characterize the primitive hematopoietic progenitor cells within CML marrow, CD34+DR- and CD34+DR+ cells were isolated using centrifugal elutriation, monoclonal antibody labeling, and flow cytometric cell sorting. Polymerase chain reaction analysis of RNA samples from these CD34+ subpopulations was used to detect the presence of the BCR/ABL translocation characteristic of CML. The CD34+DR+ subpopulation contained BCR/ABL(+) cells in 11 of 12 marrow samples studied, whereas the CD34+DR- subpopulation contained BCR/ABL(+) cells in 6 of 9 CML marrow specimens. These cell populations were assayed for hematopoietic progenitor cells, and individual hematopoietic colonies were analyzed by PCR for their BCR/ABL status. Results from six patients showed that nearly half of the myeloid colonies cloned from CD34+DR- cells were BCR/ABL(+), although the CD34+DR- subpopulation contained significantly fewer BCR/ABL(+) progenitor cells than either low-density bone marrow (LDBM) or the CD34+DR+ fraction. These CD34+ cells were also used to establish stromal cell-free long-term bone marrow cultures to assess the BCR/ABL status of hematopoietic stem cells within these CML marrow populations. After 28 days in culture, three of five cultures initiated with CD34+DR- cells produced BCR/ABL(-) cells. By contrast, only one of eight cultures initiated with CD34+DR+ cells were BCR/ABL(-) after 28 days. These results indicate that the CD34+DR- subpopulation of CML marrow still contains leukemic progenitor cells, although to a lesser extent than either LDBM or CD34+DR+ cells.

SummaryMobilization into peripheral blood of bone marrow-derived cells including hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs), is regulated by chemokines/cytokines. These cells can contribute to the formation of new blood vessels (vasculogenesis) under pathological conditions including atherosclerosis, wound healing and tumor growth. We will review how these cells are mobilized into circulation, and supplied to the sites, where vessel formation is needed (i.e. ischemic tissue or tumor bed).We will give evidence that matrix metalloproteinase-9 mediated Kit ligand (Stem cell factor) processing is essential for cell mobilization induced by chemo-/cyto-kines, like vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), Placental growth factor (PlGF), stromal cell derived factor-1 (SDF-1). These studies may provide the basis for the development of new therapeutic strategies for vascular diseases through targeting kit ligand mediated mobilization and homing of bone marrow-derived progenitor cells for cell therapy and cancer therapy.This publication was partially financed by Serono Foundation for the Advancement of Medical Science.

Abstract Adhesion molecules have been implicated in the interactions of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells with the bone marrow extracellular matrix and stromal cells. In this study we examined the role of very late antigen-5 (VLA-5) in the process of stem cell mobilization and homing after stem cell transplantation. In normal bone marrow (BM) from CBA/H mice 79±3 % of the cells in the lineage negative fraction express VLA-5. After mobilization with cyclophosphamide/G-CSF, the number of VLA-5 expressing cells in mobilized peripheral blood cells (MPB) decreases to 36±4%. The lineage negative fraction of MPB cells migrating in vitro towards SDF-1α (M-MPB) demonstrated a further decrease to 3±1% of VLA-5 expressing cells. These data are suggestive for a downregulation of VLA-5 on hematopoietic cells during mobilization. Next, MPB cells were labelled with PKH67-GL and transplanted in lethally irradiated recipients. Three hours after transplantation an increase in VLA-5 expressing cells was observed which remained stable until 24 hours post-transplant. When MPB cells were used the percentage PKH-67GL+ Lin− VLA-5+ cells increased from 36% to 88±4%. In the case of M-MPB cells the number increased from 3% to 33±5%. Although the increase might implicate an upregulation of VLA-5, we could not exclude selective homing of VLA-5+ cells as a possible explanation. Moreover, we determined the percentage of VLA-5 expressing cells immediately after transplantation in the peripheral blood of the recipients and were not able to observe any increase in VLA-5+ cells in the first three hours post-tranpslant. Finally, we separated the MPB cells in VLA-5+ and VLA-5− cells and plated these cells out in clonogenic assays for progenitor (CFU-GM) and stem cells (CAFC-day35). It could be demonstared that 98.8±0.5% of the progenitor cells and 99.4±0.7% of the stem cells were present in the VLA-5+ fraction. Hence, VLA-5 is not downregulated during the process of mobilization and the observed increase in VLA-5 expressing cells after transplantation is indeed caused by selective homing of VLA-5+ cells. To shed more light on the role of VLA-5 in the process of homing, BM and MPB cells were treated with an antibody to VLA-5. After VLA-5 blocking of MPB cells an inhibition of 59±7% in the homing of progenitor cells in bone marrow could be found, whereas homing of these subsets in the spleen of the recipients was only inhibited by 11±4%. For BM cells an inhibition of 60±12% in the bone marrow was observed. Homing of BM cells in the spleen was not affected at all after VLA-5 blocking. Based on these data we conclude that mobilization of hematopoietic progenitor/stem cells does not coincide with a downregulation of VLA-5. The observed increase in VLA-5 expressing cells after transplantation is caused by preferential homing of VLA-5+ cells. Homing of progenitor/stem cells to the bone marrow after transplantation apparantly requires adhesion interactions that can be inhibited by blocking VLA-5 expression. Homing to the spleen seems to be independent of VLA-5 expression. These data are indicative for different adhesive pathways in the process of homing to bone marrow or spleen.

Abstract Bone marrow suppression is an important cause of death in patients exposed to radiation or in cancer patients treated with conventional chemotherapeutic agents. Myeloablative treatments (i.e. 5-fluorouracil administration) lead to apoptosis of blood forming cells and to regression of blood vessels in bone marrow. It is well known that hematological recovery post-bone marrow insult depends on the capacity of hematopoietic stem cells to regenerate the entire hematopoietic system, however, the transcriptional machinery involved in the regeneration of sinusoidal blood vessels in bone marrow from endothelial progenitor cells is largely unknown. Endothelial cells express the Tie2 receptor tyrosine kinase (a.k.a. Tek), which is involved in the angiogenic remodeling and vessel stabilization. Gene targeting of Tie2 showed that it is not required for differentiation and proliferation of definitive hematopoietic lineages in the embryo although Tie2 is needed during postnatal bone marrow hematopoiesis. ELF is a subgroup of the ETS family of transcription factors composed by ELF1, ELF2 (a.k.a. NERF), ELF3, ELF4 (a.k.a. MEF) and ELF5. ELF1 and ELF2 have been shown to regulate Tie2 expression in vitro. Recently we showed that ELF4 modulates the exit of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) from quiescence (Lacorazza et al., Cancer Cell2006, 9:175–187). Given the high homology between ELF1 and ELF4 and the same origin of HSC and endothelial progenitor cells, we hypothesize that ELF4 regulates proliferation and Tie2 expression of endothelial cells. We used a luciferase gene reporter system in COS-7 and HEK cells to examine the capacity of ELF proteins to activate Tie2. ELF4 is the strongest activator of Tie2 expression following the hierarchy ELF4>ELF1>ELF2 variant 1>ELF2 variant 2. Site directed mutagenesis of each of the five ETS-binding sites (EBS) present in the Tie2 promoter shows that ELF4 binds preferentially to EBS 1, 3 and 5. Binding of ELF4 to the Tie2 promoter was confirmed by chromatin immunoprecipitation and EMSA. Although Elf1 gene expression is essentially normal in Elf4−/− bone marrow cells collected after 5-FU treatment, we detected diminished Tie2 expression compared to Elf4+/+ bone marrow cells. The association of this effect to human endothelial cells derived from umbilical cord (HUVEC cells) was investigated. All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) and vascular-endothelial growth factor (VEGF) induced ELF4 expression in HUVEC cells in a dose and time dependent manner which was followed by increased Tie2 expression, suggesting that expression of ELF4 is modulated by angiogenic signals. Moreover, endothelial cells treated with ATRA showed rapid wound colonization in a wound assay. Expression of the pan-endothelial marker MECA-32 was determined by immunohistochemistry to correlate Tie2 with the regeneration of blood vessels: myeloablated Elf4−/− femurs exhibited a reduction of MECA-32 positive arterioles. Finally, temporal and spatial expression of Tie2 during hematological recovery post ablation was measured in bone marrow using transgenic Tie2-LacZ mice crossed to Elf4−/− mice. Collectively, our data suggests that ELF4 regulates Tie2 expression in endothelial cells but most importantly their proliferative capacity in response to angiogenic signals.
