Long-term generation and expansion of human primitive hematopoietic progenitor cells in vitro.
Although sustained production of committed human hematopoietic progenitor cells in long-term bone marrow cultures (LTBMC) is well documented, evidence for the generation and expansion of human primitive hematopoietic progenitor cells (PHPC) in such cultures is lacking. For that purpose, we attempted to determine if the human high proliferative potential colony-forming cell (HPP-CFC), a primitiv...
متن کاملCXCR4 is required for the quiescence of primitive hematopoietic cells
The quiescence of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) is critical for preserving a lifelong steady pool of HSCs to sustain the highly regenerative hematopoietic system. It is thought that specialized niches in which HSCs reside control the balance between HSC quiescence and self-renewal, yet little is known about the extrinsic signals provided by the niche and how these niche signals regulate such ...
متن کاملGene transfer into normal human hematopoietic cells using in vitro and in vivo assays.
The ability to transfer new genetic material into human hematopoietic cells provides the foundation for characterizing the organization and developmental program of human hematopoietic stem cells. It also provides a valuable model in which to test gene transfer and long-term expression in human hematopoietic cells as a prelude to human gene therapy. At the present time such studies are limited ...
متن کاملMicroRNA Modulation during the In vitro Culture of Hematopoietic Stem Cells Prior to Transplantation
Background: Human umbilical cord blood (HUCB) is an acceptable and readily accessible source of stem cells. There is an ongoing interest in cord blood stem cell therapies; however, little is known about the possible unfavorable effects of laboratory modifications on the isolated HUCB cells. The involvement of miRNAs in several biological processes has been shown. The aim of this study was to ev...
متن کاملCharacterization of primitive hematopoietic cells in normal human peripheral blood.
The total number of clonogenic cells present in 5-week-old long-term cultures (LTC) initiated by seeding normal human marrow cells on competent adherent cell feeder layers allows for the quantitation of a more primitive hematopoietic input precursor cell type referred to as an LTC-initiating cell (LTC-IC). Previous studies have suggested that LTC-IC also circulate because production of clonogen...
