Project description:Gene expression profiling was used to investigate the relationship between human cord blood hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) and multipotent progenitors described in the study. Genes more highly expressed in HSC may be associated with stem cell function and self-renewal. Total RNA was obtained from flow-sorted populations based on the cell surface expression of CD34, CD38, CD45RA, Thy1, and CD49f.

Project description:Umbilical cord blood (CB) is a non-invasive, convenient and broadly used source of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) for allogeneic stem cell transplantation. However, limiting numbers of HSCs remain a major constraint for its clinical application. One feasible option would be to expand HSCs to improve therapeutic outcome, however available protocols and the molecular mechanisms governing the self-renewal of HSC are unclear. Here we show that ectopic expression of a single miRNA, miR-125a, in purified murine and human multipotent progenitors (MPP) resulted in increased self-renewal and robust long-term multi-lineage repopulation in transplanted recipient mice. Using quantitative proteomics and Western blot analysis, we identified a restricted set of miR-125a targets which revealed the involvement of the MAP kinase signaling pathway in conferring long-term repopulating capacity to multipotent progenitors in human and mice. Our findings offer the innovative potential to use MPP with enhanced self-renewal activity to augment limited sources of HSC to improve clinical protocols.

Project description:Restoration of hematopoiesis upon bone marrow (BM) transplantation relies on the engraftment, expansion and function of transplanted hematopoietic stem cells (HSC). However, the number of donorâderived HSC typically remain much below that present in normal individuals and this likely limits and delays hematopoietic recovery. HSC depend on supportive stromal niches, however, whether the preâconditioning required for BM transplantation damages this stromal niche has not been evaluated extensively. Using mouse models, we now find that that BM stroma cells (BMSC) are severely and permanently damaged by preâconditioning. Transplantation of primary but not cultured BMSC quantitatively reconstitutes stroma function in vivo, which is mediated by a multipotent CD73+ CD105â Sca1+ BMSC subpopulation. BMSC coâtransplantation significantly ameliorates clinical side effects of BM transplantation and doubles expansion of functional, donorâ derived HSC, demonstrating the potential of stroma transplantation to improve HSC transplantation. Purified CD45âTer119âCD73+ CD105â and CD45âTer119âCD73+ CD105+ cells were directly sorted on lysis buffer with FACS Aria 2 in triplicate.

Project description:We found that transient inhibition of JNK pathway increased short term-HSC frequency in cord blood CD34+ cells by 12.56 folds. Transcriptome analysis shows that inhibition of JNK pathway upregulated HSC-specific and anti-oxidative gene expression, prevented upregulation of cell cycle entry, oxidative phosphorylation and glycolysis related gene expression, and downregulated reactive oxygen species (ROS) active gene expression. Consistently, cell cycle and metabolic analysis show that inhibition of JNK pathway prevented HSC from cell cycle entry, glucose uptake increase and ROS accumulation. Accordingly, transient inhibition of JNK pathway also enhanced long term-HSC recovery during cord blood CD34+ cell collection. Collectively, these findings suggest that transient inhibition of JNK pathway could promote quiescent state of HSCs by preventing cell cycle entry and metabolic activation, thus improving HSC recovery and engraftment ability.

Project description:RNA-seq of uncultured CD112high and CD112low long-term(LT) human hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) and cultured and lentiviral transduced (CTRL, INKA1-OE) LT- and short-term HSC from umbilical cord blood We performed RNA-sequencing to elucidate the biological pathways (1) altered by INKA1 overexpression in LT-HSC and ST-HSC that may contribute to the induced transient restraint in generating proliferative hematopoietic output in vivo and in vitro; and (2) that underlie the differential in vitro priming and regeneration phenotypes of CD112high and CD112low LT-HSC. Therefore, we prospectively isolated indicated subpopulations from 3 independent human umbilical cord blood pools and subjected them either to RNA-sequencing directly or following culture, lentiviral transduction and purification of the transduced cell fractions. We show that distinct subsets of human LT-HSC respond differently to regeneration-mediated stress and that INKA1 governs these distinct stemness states where CD112low LT-HSC are marked by an alternative state of quiescence with high INKA1 preserving self-renewal and regenerative capacity upon successive rounds of regeneration-mediated stress.

Project description:Hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) rely on a unique regulatory machinery that facilitates life-long blood production and enables reconstitution of the entire hematopoietic system upon transplantation. However, the biological processes governing human HSC self-renewal and engraftment ability are poorly understood and challenging to recapitulate ex vivo to facilitate robust human HSC expansion. We discovered a novel HSC regulatory protein, MYCT1 (MYCT target 1), that is selectively expressed in endothelial cells (EC) and undifferentiated human HSPCs but becomes drastically downregulated during HSC culture. Lentiviral knockdown of MYCT1 in human foetal liver and cord blood HSPCs revealed a critical role for MYCT1 in governing human HSPC expansion and engraftment ability. Single cell RNAseq of human CB HSPCs after MYCT1 knockdown and overexpression revealed that MYCT1 governs HSC functional competence and modulates cellular properties essential for HSC stemness, such as low mitochondrial metabolic activity. Indeed, restoring the compromised MYCT1 expression in cultured human CB HSPCs improved ex vivo expansion of the most undifferentiated human HSPCs and enhanced their engraftment ability. We found that MYCT1 is localized in the endosomal membrane and interacts with vesicle trafficking regulators and signalling machinery essential for HSC and EC function. Loss of MYCT1 led to excessive endocytosis and hyperactive signalling responses to cytokines, whereas restoring MYCT1 expression in cultured CB HSPCs balanced the abnormal endocytosis associated with prolonged culture and fine-tuned signalling responses. Our work identifies MYCT1-moderated endocytosis and environmental sensing as an essential regulatory mechanism required to preserve human HSC stemness, and pinpoints silencing of MYCT1 as a critical contributor to the dysfunction of cultured human HSCs that needs to be addressed to improve human HSC culture strategies.

Project description:Hematopoietic reconstitution after bone marrow transplantation is thought to be driven by committed multipotent progenitor cells followed by long-term engrafting hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). We observed a population of early-engrafting cells displaying HSC-like behavior, which persisted long-term in vivo in an autologous myeloablative transplant model in nonhuman primates. To identify this population, we characterized the phenotype and function of defined nonhuman primate hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) subsets and compared these to human HSPCs. We demonstrated that the CD34+CD45RA-CD90+ cell phenotype is highly enriched for HSCs. This population fully supported rapid short-term recovery and robust multilineage hematopoiesis in the nonhuman primate transplant model and quantitatively predicted transplant success and time to neutrophil and platelet recovery. Application of this cell population has potential in the setting of HSC transplantation and gene therapy/editing approaches.

Project description:BackgroundDelayed hematopoietic recovery is a major drawback of umbilical cord blood (UCB) transplantation. Transplantation of ex vivo-expanded UCB shortens time to hematopoietic recovery, but long-term, robust engraftment by the expanded unit has yet to be demonstrated. We tested the hypothesis that a UCB-derived cell product consisting of stem cells expanded for 21 days in the presence of nicotinamide and a noncultured T cell fraction (NiCord) can accelerate hematopoietic recovery and provide long-term engraftment.MethodsIn a phase I trial, 11 adults with hematologic malignancies received myeloablative bone marrow conditioning followed by transplantation with NiCord and a second unmanipulated UCB unit. Safety, hematopoietic recovery, and donor engraftment were assessed and compared with historical controls.ResultsNo adverse events were attributable to the infusion of NiCord. Complete or partial neutrophil and T cell engraftment derived from NiCord was observed in 8 patients, and NiCord engraftment remained stable in all patients, with a median follow-up of 21 months. Two patients achieved long-term engraftment with the unmanipulated unit. Patients transplanted with NiCord achieved earlier median neutrophil recovery (13 vs. 25 days, P < 0.001) compared with that seen in historical controls. The 1-year overall and progression-free survival rates were 82% and 73%, respectively.ConclusionUCB-derived hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells expanded in the presence of nicotinamide and transplanted with a T cell-containing fraction contain both short-term and long-term repopulating cells. The results justify further study of NiCord transplantation as a single UCB graft. If long-term safety is confirmed, NiCord has the potential to broaden accessibility and reduce the toxicity of UCB transplantation.Trial registrationClinicaltrials.gov NCT01221857.FundingGamida Cell Ltd.

Project description:Here we tracked transcriptional changes in LT, ST-HSC and MLP after transplantation into immunocompromised mice. We show that LT- and ST-HSC activate similar pathways upon transplantation but they modulate distinct sets of genes. Total RNA was obtained from flow-sorted populations of human LT-, ST-HSC and MLP isolated from cord blood or immunocompromised mice transplanted with human at hematopoeitic progenitors at different time points after transplantation.

Project description:Overexpression of methylguanine methyltransferase P140K (MGMTP140K) has been successfully used for in vivo selection and chemoprotection in mouse and large animal studies, and has promise for autologous and allogeneic gene therapy. We examined the long-term safety of MGMTP140K selection in a clinically relevant dog model. Based on the association of provirus integration and proto-oncogene activation leading to leukemia in the X-linked immunodeficiency trial, we focused our analysis on the distribution of retrovirus integration sites (RIS) relative to proto-oncogene transcription start sites (TSS). We analyzed RIS near proto-oncogene TSS before (n = 157) and after (n = 129) chemotherapy in dogs that received MGMTP140K gene-modified cells and identified no overall increase of RIS near proto-oncogene TSS after chemotherapy. We also wanted to determine whether in vivo selected cells retained fundamental characteristics of hematopoietic stem cells. To that end, we performed secondary transplantation of MGMTP140K gene-modified cells after in vivo selection in dog leukocyte antigen (DLA)-matched dogs. Gene-modified cells achieved multilineage repopulation, and we identified the same gene-modified clone in both dogs more than 800 and 900 days after transplantation. These data suggest that MGMTP140K selection is well tolerated and should allow clinically for selection of gene-corrected cells in genetic or infectious diseases or chemoprotection for treatment of malignancy.
