Abstract Umbilical cord blood (CB) is a valuable source of stem cells for transplantation, but CB transplantations are frequently complicated by delayed platelet engraftment. The reasons underlying this are unclear. We hypothesized that CB- and peripheral-blood (PB)–derived megakaryocytes (MKs) respond differently to the adult hematopoietic microenvironment and to thrombopoietin (Tpo). To test this, we cultured CB- and PB-CD34+ cells in adult bone marrow stromal conditioned media (CM) or unconditioned media (UCM) with increasing concentrations of recombinant Tpo and compared the effects of these conditions on CB-versus PB-MKs. PB-MKs reached highest ploidy in response to UCM + 100 ng/mL rTpo, and the addition of CM inhibited their maturation. In contrast, CB-MKs reached highest ploidy in CM without rTpo, and high rTpo concentrations (> 0.1 ng/mL) inhibited their maturation. This is the first evidence that human neonatal and adult MKs have substantially different biologic responses to Tpo and potentially to other cytokines.

Abstract A novel Hoechst 33342 dye efflux assay was recently developed that identifies a population of hematopoietic cells termed side population (SP) cells. In the bone marrow of multiple species, including mice and primates, the SP is composed primarily of CD34−cells, yet has many of the functional properties of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). This report characterizes SP cells from human umbilical cord blood (UCB). The SP in unfractionated UCB was enriched for CD34+ cells but also contained a large population of CD34− cells, many of which were mature lymphocytes. SP cells isolated from UCB that had been depleted of lineage-committed cells (Lin− UCB) contained CD34+ and CD34− cells in approximately equivalent proportions. Similar to previous descriptions of human HSCs, the CD34+Lin− SP cells were CD38dimHLA-DRdimThy-1dimCD45RA−CD71−and were enriched for myelo-erythroid precursors. In contrast, the CD34−Lin− SP cells were CD38−HLA-DR−Thy-1−CD71−and failed to generate myelo-erythroid progeny in vitro. The majority of these cells were CD7+CD11b+CD45RA+, as might be expected of early lymphoid cells, but did not express other lymphoid markers. The CD7+CD34−Lin− UCB SP cells did not proliferate in simple suspension cultures but did differentiate into natural killer cells when cultured on stroma with various cytokines. In conclusion, the human Lin− UCB SP contains both CD34+ multipotential stem cells and a novel CD7+CD34−Lin− lymphoid progenitor. This observation adds to the growing body of evidence that CD34− progenitors exist in humans.

During the phase of proliferation needed for hematopoietic reconstitution following transplantation, hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPC) must express genes involved in stem cell self-renewal. We investigated the expression of genes relevant for self-renewal and expansion of HSPC (operationally defined as CD34+ cells) in steady state and after transplantation. Specifically, we evaluated the expression of ninety-one genes that were analyzed by real-time PCR in CD34+ cells isolated from (i) 12 samples from umbilical cord blood (UCB); (ii) 15 samples from bone marrow healthy donors; (iii) 13 samples from bone marrow after umbilical cord blood transplant (UCBT); and (iv) 29 samples from patients after transplantation with adult hematopoietic cells. The results show that transplanted CD34+ cells from adult cells acquire an asset very different from transplanted CD34+ cells from cord blood. Multivariate machine learning analysis (MMLA) showed that four specific gene signatures can be obtained by comparing the four types of CD34+ cells. In several, but not all cases, transplanted HSPC from UCB overexpress reprogramming genes. However, these remarkable changes do not alter the commitment to hematopoietic lineage. Overall, these results reveal undisclosed aspects of transplantation biology.

Human umbilical cord blood as an alternative source of hematopoietic stem cells for bone marrow reconstitution, has recently been demonstrated to yield successful HLA-matched placental blood grafts in children. It has been shown that cord blood contains sufficient progenitor cells to effect hematological reconstitution. Since then, more than 25 cord blood stem cells (CBSCs) transplants have been performed worldwide for the treatment of a variety of malignant and nonmalignant diseases. The majority of the grafts performed thus far have utilized CBSCs from HLA-identical siblings. However, much of the interest in this setting is devoted to the potential use of CBSCs for HLA-mismatched and unrelated transplants. Preliminary results suggest that allorecognition and graft-versus-host disease may be less intense in CBSCs transplants than in recipients of similarly compatible bone marrow. This review summarizes the results and potential future applications of cord blood transplantation.
