The NOD/SCID xenotransplant model has emerged as a widely employed assay for human hematopoietic stem cells, however, barriers still exist that limit engraftment. We previously identified a short-term SCID repopulating cell (SRC) following direct intrafemoral (IF) injection into NOD/SCID mice, whereas others characterized similar SRC using NOD/SCID mice depleted of NK cell activity. To determine the model that most efficiently detects short-term SRC, we compared human engraftment in six different xenotransplant models; NOD/SCID-{beta}2 microglobulin-null mice, anti-CD122 (IL-2R{beta}) treated or unmanipulated NOD/SCID mice, each transplanted by intravenous or IF injection. Human cell engraftment was highest in IF injected anti-CD122 treated NOD/SCID mice compared to all other groups at 2 and 6 weeks post-transplant. These modifications to the SRC assay provide improved detection of human stem cells and demonstrate that CD122+ cells provide barriers to stem cell engraftment; a finding with potential clinical relevance.
