The NOD-LtSZ scid/scid (NOD/SCID) repopulation assay is the
criterion for the study of self-renewal and multilineage
differentiation of human hematopoietic stem cells. An important
shortcoming of this model is the reported absence of T-cell
development. We studied this aspect of the model and investigated how
it could be optimized to support T-cell development. Occasionally,
low-grade thymic engraftment was observed in NOD/SCID mice or
Rag2 / c/ mice. In
contrast, the treatment of NOD/SCID mice with a monoclonal antibody
against the murine interleukin-2R , (IL-2R) known to decrease
natural killer cell activity, resulted in human thymopoiesis in up to
60% of the mice. T-cell development was phenotypically normal and
resulted in polyclonal, mature, and functional CD1
TCR + CD4+ or CD8+
single-positive T cells. In mice with ongoing thymopoiesis, peripheral T cells were observed. TREC analysis showed that T cells with a naive
phenotype (CD45RA+) emerged from the thymus. In
approximately half of these mice, the peripheral T cells included a
pauciclonal outgrowth of CD45RO+ cells. These data
suggest that all elements of a functional immune system were present in
these animals.
