Transciption profiling by array of human umbilical cord blood stem cells after co-culture with or without resting or IL-15 activated cord blood NK cells

ABSTRACT: Cord blood stem cells (CBSC) and resting or activated NK cells were co-cultured for 4 h and then CBSC were re-isolated by sorting using a FACSAria cell sorter (BD Biosciences). RNA was isolated from sorted CBSC using an RNeasy Micro kit (Qiagen). Samples were processed using GeneChip Whole Transcript Sense Target Labeling assays using the Ambion WT Expression kit and Affymetrix GeneChip WT Terminal Labeling and Controls kit (Affymetrix). The resulting ssDNAs were hybridized to the Human Gene 2.0 ST Array (Affymetrix) and transcript levels compared to CBSC alone using GeneSpring software.

Cord blood (CB) is increasingly used as a source of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) for transplantation. Low incidence and severity of graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) and a robust graft-versus-leukemia (GvL) effect are observed following CB transplantation (CBT). However, its main disadvantages are a limited number of HSC per unit, delayed immune reconstitution and a higher incidence of infection. Unmanipulated grafts contain accessory cells that may facilitate HSC engraftment. Therefore, the ef ...[more]

Project description:Mononuclear cells were isolated from umbilical cord blood (UCB) using Lymphoprep sucrose-gradient centrifugation (1.077 g/ml, Nycomed Pharma, Oslo, Norway). Immunomagnetic cell separation, using magnetic beads coated with CD34 antibodies (Miltenyi Biotec, Gladbach, Germany), was performed to isolate CD34-positive hematopoietic progenitor cells (CB-CD34+ cells). To generate retrovirus, bicistronic retroviral DNA constructs were used expressing the ETV6-RUNX1 or AML1-ETO fusion gene and enhanced Green Fluorescent Protein (eGFP). As a control, a construct expressing only eGFP was used. Both vectors consisted of a pMSCV promoter region, an internal ribosomal entry site and an ampicillin resistance cassette. HEK293T cells were co-transfected with these constructs and second-generation retroviral packaging vectors using XtremeGENE 9 tranfection reagents (Roche, Basel, Switzerland). Viral particles were collected in IMDM 48 hours after transfection. CD34+ haematopoietic progenitors, pre-cultured overnight as described above, upon which cells were divided in two fractions. One fraction was transduced with ETV6-RUNX1-IRES-eGFP or AML1-ETO-IRES-eGFP, while the other fraction was transduced with control EV-IRES-eGFP. Transductions were performed with fresh retrovirus in retronectin (Takara, Otsu, Japan) coated wells. After sorting, DAPI- CD34+ GFP+ CB-CD34+ cells were lysed and RNA was extracted using Nucleospin RNA XS extraction columns according to manufacturer’s protocol (Macherey-Nagel, Düren, Germany). Quality of RNA was determined by on-chip-electrophoresis using a RNA Pico Chip according to manufacturer’s protocol (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA). RNA Integrity scores (RIN) were higher than 8 for all samples. RNA was subsequently linearly amplified using the Nugen WT-Amplification™ pico system (Nugen, San Carlos, CA, USA). This system is based on RNA-dependent DNA polymerase activity and was previously reported to be most suitable for amplification and gene expression of picograms of input RNA.

Project description:Our team had previously explored the potential of expanding cord blood (CB) derived γδ T cells (CB-gdT) as well as their corresponding ability to target primary acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells. Using a feeder cell line-based in vitro expansion protocol, we achieved a clinically relevant scale expansion of γδ T cells over a period of 14 days. These cells exhibit variable degree of potency against a range of human AML cell lines and primary patient samples. In order to dissect the cellular and molecular programs governing the activation, differentiation and functional states of our in vitro expanded CB-gdT, we performed multiplex single cell sequencing analysis using the 10X Genomics Chromium System. After initial quality check and filtering, data from a total of 4,276 cells were retrieved. Among which, we identified 742 unique TCRγδ clonotypes, representing 18.6% of the starting 4,000 FACS purified γδ T cells seeded for expansion. Consistent to our FACS analysis, Vδ1 is the predominant TRD chain in the expanded cultures, accounting for 61.2% of all clones. Based on uniform manifold approximation and projection for dimension reduction (UMAP), all cells were clustered into 11 subsets. Key cytotoxic genes including GZMB, GZMA and NKG7 were all highly expressed across all clusters, indicating that the expanded cells were indeed functionally cytotoxic. Comparing against multiple curated gene sets, we have identified 3 main subsets of γδ T cells: the Proliferative, Cytotoxic γδ T cells (P-CT), Differentiated Cytotoxic γδ T cells (D-CT) and Late Activated Cytotoxic γδ T cells (LA-CT). P-CT (~46% of all cells) shows an expression profile positively associated with cell proliferation as well as increased cell surface expression of memory T cell markers CD27, CCR7 and CD62L. Similar to cytotoxic genes, genes associated with TCR signaling and interferon response were found to be expressed across all cell clusters, yet with elevated levels in D-CT and LA-CT. Furthermore, cell surface expression of different NK receptors including NKG2D, DNAM1 and NKp30 are more enriched in LA-CT compared to the other 2 subsets, suggesting the acquisition of additional NK receptor related functions in this group of cells. Consistent with the concept of progressive γδ T cell differentiation and activation in culture, we found that in 85 (11.5%) of the γδ T cell clones bearing more than 10 cells each, all clones contain cells distributed across the 3 different γδ T cell subsets. This is the first report on single cell immune profiling of in vitro expanded gdT cells derived from human CB.

Project description:The microarray data presented here relate to a study on TEL-AML1 associated childhood leukemia (Hong et al, 2008) the abstract of which is as follows: "Understanding cancer pathogenesis requires knowledge of not only the specific contributory genetic mutations but also the cellular framework in which they arise and function. Here we explore the clonal evolution of childhood precursor B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia characterised by a chromosomal translocation generating a TEL-AML1 fusion gene. We identify a cell compartment in leukemic children which can propagate leukemia when transplanted in mice. By studying a monochorionic twin pair, one pre-leukemic and one with frank leukemia, we establish the lineal relationship between these "tumor-propagating" cells and the pre-leukemic cell in which the TEL-AML1 fusion first arises or has functional impact. Analysis of TEL-AML1 transduced cord blood cells suggests that TEL-AML1 functions as a first-hit mutation by endowing this pre-leukemic cell with altered self-renewal and survival properties." The cells used to generate the microarray data were obtained as follows: We prospectively isolated CD34+CD38-/lowCD19+ cells from NOD/SCID mice transplanted with TEL-AML1-transduced human cord blood cells and compared their gene expression profiles, ascertained by affymetrix microarray analysis (see methods), to control 'hematopoietic stem cells' (HSCs immunophenotypically-defined as CD34+CD38-/lowCD19-) and pro-B cells (immunophenotypically-defined as CD34+CD38+CD19+) isolated from NOD/SCID animals transplanted with control vector transduced cord blood cells. While these different populations were obtained from three independent transduction and transplantation experiments, the data were generated from small numbers of cells and have not been validated by independent analyses such as RQ-PCR or protein analysis. They should therefore be regarded as preliminary in nature and we would therefore caution against detailed analysis of individual gene expression profiles based on these particular datasets. This caveat aside, the data may provide a broad overview of gene expression profiles in these cell types and such analyses suggest that TEL-AML1 generates a novel population of cells that contain features of both stem cells and committed B progenitors (Hong et al 2008). We are currently repeating the analyses using larger numbers of cells and more replicates together with appropriate cell populations from ALL patients and will post these data online when they become available.
