Abstract
Expansion of human cord blood (CB) CD34+ cells with thrombopoietin (TPO) can accelerate delayed platelet (PLT) recovery after transplantation into immunodeficient mice. Clinical implementation, however, will depend on practical and effective protocols. The best timing of TPO expansion in relation to cryopreservation in this respect is unknown. In this study, we evaluated whether the order of cryopreservation and TPO expansion affected the expansion rate and numbers of clonogenic hematopoietic progenitor cells in vitro or PLT and longer-term hematopoietic repopulation in NOD SCID mice in vivo. Our results demonstrate higher expansion rates and the generation of higher numbers of multilineage and megakaryocytic progenitors (granulocyte, erythrocyte, monocyte, megakaryocyte colony-forming units and megakaryocyte colony-forming units) in vitro when freshly isolated CB CD34+ cells are first cultured with TPO and then cryopreserved and thawed as compared to TPO expansion after CD34+ cell cryopreservation. In contrast, the cells produced with the latter strategy showed higher expression of CD62L and a superior stromal cell-derived factor-1α-mediated migration. This might play a role in an also observed superior early PLT recovery afte...Continue Reading
