Ex vivo expansion of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells may result
in defective engraftment. Human cord blood CD34+ progenitor
cells were synchronized and assayed for adhesion and migration onto
fibronectin (Fn) and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) at
different stages of a first cell cycle executed ex vivo. During S phase
transit, adhesion to Fn was transiently increased while binding to
VCAM-1 was reversibly decreased, after which adhesion to both ligands
returned to baseline levels with cell cycle completion. Transmigration
across Fn and VCAM-1 decreased irreversibly during S phase progression.
The function of 4 and 5 integrins was assessed with specific
neutralizing antibodies. In uncultured CD34+ cells and
long-term culture-initiating cells (LTC-ICs), both adhesion and
migration on Fn were inhibited by anti- 4 but not by anti- 5
antibodies. In mitotically activated CD34+ cells and
LTC-ICs, adhesion and migration on Fn were mainly dependent on 5
integrin and to a lesser extent on 4 integrin. Changes in integrin
function were not dependent on parallel modulation of integrin
expression. In conclusion, Fn and VCAM-1 binding of progenitor cells
fluctuates reversibly during cell cycle transit ex vivo. In addition,
our data show that mitogenic activation induces a shift from a dominant
4 to a preferential 5 integrin-dependent interaction with Fn.
