Transgenic and gene targeted mice have contributed greatly to our
understanding of the mechanisms underlying B-cell development. We
describe here a model system that allows us to apply molecular genetic
techniques to the analysis of human B-cell development. We constructed
a retroviral vector with a multiple cloning site connected to a gene
encoding green fluorescent protein by an internal ribosomal entry site.
Human CD34+CD38 fetal liver cells,
cultured overnight in a combination of stem cell factor and
interleukin-7 (IL-7), could be transduced with 30% efficiency. We
ligated the gene encoding the dominant negative helix loop helix (HLH)
factor Id3 that inhibits many enhancing basic HLH transcription factors
into this vector. CD34+CD38 FL cells were
transduced with Id3-IRES-GFP and cultured with the murine stromal cell
line S17. In addition, we cultured the transduced cells in a
reaggregate culture system with an SV-transformed human fibroblast cell
line (SV19). It was observed that overexpression of Id3 inhibited
development of B cells in both culture systems. B-cell development was
arrested at a stage before expression of the IL-7R . The development
of CD34+CD38 cells into
CD14+ myeloid cells in the S17 system was not inhibited
by overexpression of Id3. Moreover, Id3+ cells, although
inhibited in their B-cell development, were still able to develop into
natural killer (NK) cells when cultured in a combination of Flt-3L,
IL-7, and IL-15. These findings confirm the essential role of bHLH
factors in B-cell development and demonstrate the feasibility of
retrovirus-mediated gene transfer as a tool to genetically modify human
B-cell development.
