Introduction. Of interest is the use of a conditioned medium from mesenchymal stromal cells in order to increase the expansion of CD34+  hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs).Aim — to analyze the effi cacy of two methods of ex vivo production of human megakaryocytes and platelets from CD34+ cord blood HSC using conditioned media from mesenchymal stromal cells and IMDM. Methods. Two cultivation methods that differ from each other by medium composition were compared. As a control of antigen expression of the donor, venous blood platelets were used. CD34+ HSCs were isolated from mononuclear fraction of cord blood using the immunomagnetic selection technique. The resulting cells were introduced at a concentration of 1 × 104  cells/mL into 24-well plates and cultured at 39 °C and 10 % CO2  for the first 7 days, after which the conditions were changed to 37 °C and 5 % CO2  and cultured for 14 days. In Group 1, up to day 7, the culture was performed using conditioned medium from mesenchymal stromal cell containing TPO (30 ng/mL), SCF (2 ng/mL), IL-6 (7.5 ng/mL), IL-9 (13.5 ng/mL), and in Group 2 a IMDM medium with the same cytokine cocktail was used. The cells were calculated using haemocytometer. CD34, CD41a, CD42b expression was evaluated using fl ow cytometry. Statistic data was processed with using R-language. The differences were evaluated as statistically signifi cant at signifi cance level p < 0.05.Results. Megakaryocyte production was observed starting from day 7 of culture. The expression level using conditioned medium from mesenchymal stromal cells (Group 1) according to CD41a was 5.84 ± 0.33 % versus 10.43 ± 1.08 % using IMDM medium (Group 2). On day 13 the ratio increased up to 42.05 ± 1.71 % in Group 1 and 61.78 ± 1.71 % in Group 2. CD41a+ megakaryocytes of Group 1 expressed the CD42b marker at the level of 96.85 ± 1.06 % versus 88.7 ± 0.56 % in Group 2. With the application of MSC conditioned medium the average number of nucleated cells was signifi cantly higher on the day 11 and it was equal 326.016 ± 1.86 × 104  cells/mL vs 197.26 ± 10.55 × 104  cells/mL in IMDM medium. Proplatelet formation was observed with microscopy staring from the day 12. The ratio of CD41a+ /CD42b+  platelets was 59.5 ± 3.85 % in conditioned medium, 65.9 ± 8.72 % in IMDM, and 96.11 ± 0.89 % in control platelets derived from venous blood.Conclusion. It was demonstrated that the use of MSC conditioned medium leads to an increase in the expansion of nucleated cells, however it decreases the rate of differentiation in megakaryocytes.

Abstract Abstract 4811 The number of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HPCs) in cord blood units are limited and this can result in delayed engraftment. In vitro expansion of HPCs provides a perspective to overcome these limitations. Different combinations of cytokines as well as mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) have been shown to separately support HPCs ex vivo expansion, but the combining effects are under evaluation. Data derived from ex vivo co-culture systems using MSC as a feeder layer suggest that cellular contacts could have a significant impact on expansion. We have evaluated the expansion rate of thawed cord blood samples (n=6) in a medium containing SCF (100 ng/ml) and G-CSF (100 ng/ml) plated over a pre-established bone marrow derived MSC layer in comparison to the absence of either MSC layer or cytokines. After 7 days cultures were demi-depopulated. At 14 days of culture adherent and non-adherent cells were harvested, counted and evaluated for antigens expression and clonogenic capacity. Immunophenotypic analysis was performed using CD34-PE, CD38-FITC, CD45-PE-Cy7, CD133-APC. Clonogenic assay was performed in semisolid methylcellulose culture medium (MethoCult, Stem Cell Technologies), CFU frequencies and total CFU numbers per cord blood sample were determined. After 14 days of culture, in the presence of MSC layer, an 11.2-fold increase (range 4.4–18.4) in total number of cells was observed, in comparison to a 4.8-fold increase (range1.1-10.35) in the absence of MSC layer. The presence of MSC layer generated a 4.3-fold increase (range 1.5–7.2) in the number of CD34 positive cells, compared to a 3.3-fold increase (range 0.9–5.7) in the absence of MSC; when considering the more immature CD34+/CD38− subpopulation the corresponding increase were 26.9-fold vs 2.85-fold, respectively. Moreover, the percentage of the CD34+/CD38− subpopulation was higher in the adherent compared to the non-adherent fraction (76% vs 15%). The selection effect given by the MSC layer was confirmed by the presence of hematopoiesis foci growing onto the MSC layer. Our data show that cord blood HPCs can be expanded in vitro, moreover the co-culture on a MSC layer shows a synergistic effect on TCN, CD34+ cells and on more primitive CD34+/CD38− cells. Therefore, a clinical protocol of cord blood HPCs and MSC co-culture could represent a promising approach for improving engraftment kinetics in cord blood transplant recipients.

Wharton’s jelly mesenchymal stromal cells (WJ-MSCs) have been recently exploited as a feeder layer in coculture systems to expand umbilical cord blood–hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (UCB-HSPCs). Here, we investigated the role of WJ-MSCs in supporting ex vivo UCB-HSPC expansion either when cultured in direct contact (DC) with WJ-MSCs or separated by a transwell system or in the presence of WJ-MSC–conditioned medium. We found, in short-term culture, a greater degree of expansion of UCB-CD34+ cells in a DC system (15.7 ± 4.1-fold increase) with respect to the other conditions. Moreover, in DC, we evidenced two different CD34+ cell populations (one floating and one adherent to WJ-MSCs) with different phenotypic and functional characteristics. Both multipotent CD34+/CD38− and lineage-committed CD34+/CD38+ hematopoietic progenitors were expanded in a DC system. The former were significantly more represented in the adherent cell fraction than in the floating one (18.7 ± 11.2% vs. 9.7 ± 7.9% over the total CD34+ cells). Short-term colony forming unit (CFU) assays showed that HSPCs adherent to the stromal layer were able to generate a higher frequency of immature colonies (CFU-granulocyte/macrophage and burst-forming unit erythroid/large colonies) with respect to the floating cells. In the attempt to identify molecules that may play a role in supporting the observed ex vivo HSPC growth, we performed secretome analyses. We found a number of proteins involved in the HSPC homing, self-renewal, and differentiation in all tested conditions. It is important to note that a set of sixteen proteins, which are only in part reported to be expressed in any hematopoietic niche, were exclusively found in the DC system secretome. In conclusion, WJ-MSCs allowed a significant ex vivo expansion of multipotent as well as committed HSPCs. This may be relevant for future clinical applications.

Abstract Abstract 3211 We have previously shown that primary human stromal cells and hTERT-transduced human stromal cells (hTERT-stromal cells) support cord blood (CB) hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells. However, it is unclear whether human stromal cells maintain the expansion of erythroid progenitor cells without losing erythroid differentiation potential for a long-term ex vivo culture. In an attempt to evaluate the efficacy of human stromal cells, erythroid induction was conducted by SCF, EPO and IGF-1, 2-week after expansion of CB CD34+ cells with or without human stromal cells. The maturation of erythroid cells were evaluated by morphological findings, transferrin receptor (TfR)/glycophorin A (GPA) expression and hemoglobin (Hb) synthesis (MCH, pg/cells). The number of BFU-E upon 2-week coculture with the hTERT-stromal cells was significantly higher than those without hTERT-stromal cells (BFU-E, 639±102 vs. 4078±1935, the initial cell number of BFU-E was 513±10). Hb concentration of erythroblasts that had been derived from coculture with stromal cells, was significantly higher than that derived from stroma-free condition 14 days after erythroid induction (MCH, 0.78±0.11 vs. 2.62±0.12; p<0.05). Moreover, cobblestone area (CA)-forming cells existed beneath stromal layer weekly produced the large number of BFU-E from 4th week to at least 8th week (the total number of BFU-E, 57246±1288)(Figure A). Notably, these BFU-Es derived from CA could simultaneously differentiate into orthophilic erythroblasts with nearly normal Hb synthesis (MHC, 24.5±6.4 pg/cell)(Figure B) and GPA expression. Furthermore, most of these erythroblasts derived from CA underwent enucleation spontaneously after further 7 days culture. Thus, using hTERT-stromal cells, the long-term ex vivo erythroid production could be attained from CB cells. These findings contribute to constructing long-term of ex vivo erythroid production system using human stromal cells. Disclosures: No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

: Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) regulate other cell types through a strong paracrine component called the secretome, comprising of several bioactive entities. The composition of the MSCs’ secretome is dependent upon the microenvironment in which they thrive, and hence, it could be altered by pre-conditioning the MSCs during in vitro culture. The primary aim of this review is to discuss various strategies that are being used for pre-conditioning of MSCs, also known as “priming of MSCs”, in the context of improving their therapeutic potential. Several studies have underscored the importance of extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from primed MSCs in improving their efficacy in the treatment of various diseases. We have previously shown that co-culturing hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) with hypoxiaprimed MSCs improves their engraftment potential. Now the question we pose is would priming of MSCs with hypoxiafavorably alter theirsecretome and would this altered secretome work as effectively as the cell to cell contact did? Here we review the current strategies of using the secretome, specifically the EVs (microvesicles and exosomes), collected from the primed MSCs with the intention of expanding HSCs ex vivo. We speculate that an effective priming of MSCs in vitrocould modulate the molecular profile of their secretome, which could eventually be used as a cell-free biologic in clinical settings.

Efficientex vivoexpansion of hematopoietic stem cells with a concomitant preservation of stemness and self-renewal potential is still an unresolved ambition. Increased numbers of methods approaching this issue using three-dimensional (3D) cultures were reported. Here, we describe a simplified 3D hanging drop model for the coculture of cord blood-derived CD34+hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) with bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs). When seeded as a mixed cell suspension, MSCs segregated into tight spheroids. Despite the high expression of niche-specific extracellular matrix components by spheroid-forming MSCs, HSPCs did not migrate into the spheroids in the initial phase of coculture, indicating strong homotypic interactions of MSCs. After one week, however, HSPC attachment increased considerably, leading to spheroid collapse as demonstrated by electron microscopy and immunofluorescence staining. In terms of HSPC proliferation, the conventional 2D coculture system was superior to the hanging drop model. Furthermore, expansion of primitive hematopoietic progenitors was more favored in 2D than in 3D, as analyzed in colony-forming assays. Conclusively, our data demonstrate that MSCs, when arranged with a spread (monolayer) shape, exhibit better HSPC supportive qualities than spheroid-forming MSCs. Therefore, 3D systems are not necessarily superior to traditional 2D culture in this regard.

AbstractRadiation-induced bystander effects (RIBE) in human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells may initiate myeloid neoplasms (MN). Here, the occurrence of RIBE caused by genotoxic signaling from irradiated human mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) on human bone marrow CD34+ cells was investigated. For this purpose, healthy MSC were irradiated in order to generate conditioned medium containing potential genotoxic signaling factors. Afterwards, healthy CD34+ cells from the same donors were grown in conditioned medium and RIBE were analyzed. Increased DNA damage and chromosomal instability were detected in CD34+ cells grown in MSC conditioned medium when compared to CD34+ cells grown in control medium. Furthermore, reactive oxygen species and distinct proteome alterations, e.g., heat-shock protein GRP78, that might be secreted into the extracellular medium, were identified as potential RIBE mediators. In summary, our data provide evidence that irradiated MSC induce genetic instability in human CD34+ cells potentially resulting in the initiation of MN. Furthermore, the identification of key bystander signals, such as GRP78, may lay the framework for the development of next-generation anti-leukemic drugs.
