SCID-repopulating cell activity of human cord blood-derived CD34- cells assured by intra-bone marrow injection.
Blood 2003 April 16
Precise analysis of human CD34-negative (CD34(-)) hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) has been hindered by the lack of a simple and reliable assay system of these rare cells. Here, we successfully identify human cord blood-derived CD34(-) severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID)- repopulating cells (SRCs) with extensive lymphoid and myeloid repopulating ability using the intra-bone marrow injection (IBMI) technique. Lineage-negative (Lin(-)) CD34(-) cells did not show SRC activity by conventional tail-vein injection, possibly due to their low levels of homing receptor expression and poor SDF-1/CXCR4- mediated homing abilities, while they clearly showed a high SRC activity by IBMI. They generated CD34(+) progenies not only in the injected left tibia but also in other bones following migration. Moreover, they showed slower differentiating and reconstituting kinetics than CD34(+) cells in vivo. These in vivo-generated CD34(+) cells showed a distinct SRC activity after secondary transplantation, clearly indicating the long-term human cell repopulating capacity of our identified CD34(-) SRCs in nonobese diabetic (NOD)/SCID mice. The unveiling of this novel class of primitive human CD34(-) SRCs by IBMI will provide a new concept of the hierarchy in the human HSC compartment and has important implications for clinical HSC transplantation as well as for basic research of HSC.
