BRIEF REPORT
Ex vivo treatment of proliferating human cord blood stem cells
with stroma-derived factor-1 enhances their ability to engraft

From the Terry Fox Laboratory, British Columbia Cancer
Agency, and the Departments of Biochemistry and Medical Genetics and

for Molecular Medicine and Cell Research, University of Freiburg,
Germany.
Ex vivo proliferation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) is
important for cellular and gene therapy but is limited by the observation that HSCs do not engraft as they transit
S/G2/M. Recently identified candidate inhibitors of human
HSC cycling are transforming growth factor- 1
(TGF- 1) and stroma-derived factor-1 (SDF-1). To
determine the ability of these factors to alter the transplantability of human HSCs proliferating in vitro, lin cord blood
cells were first cultured for 96 hours in serum-free medium containing
Flt3 ligand, Steel factor, interleukin-3, interleukin-6, and
granulocyte colony-stimulating factor. These cells were then transferred to medium containing Steel factor and thrombopoietin with
or without SDF-1 and/or TGF- 1 for 48 hours. Exposure to SDF-1 but not TGF- 1 significantly increased (> 2-fold)
the recovery of HSCs able to repopulate nonobese diabetic/severe
combined immunodeficiency mice. These results suggest new strategies
for improving the engraftment activity of HSCs stimulated to
proliferate ex vivo.
