tgf-breceptor2 knocked down by sirna increases cord blood cd34+ hscs self-renewal

چکیده
objective: nowadays, cord blood hematopoietic stem cells (hscs) are known as a valuable source for bone marrow transplantation but unfortunately their insufficient number is a limiting factor for using them in adult bone marrow transplantation. cord blood hcss expansion is an approach to overcome this problem, by inducing their self-renewal. tgf-b signaling pathway is a key inhibitory agent for hscs self-renewal. in this study, we tried to enhance self-renewal of long term culture initiating cell by inhibiting tgfbr2 expression. materials and methods: cd34+ hscs were isolated from cord blood units with macs column. sirna against tgfbr2 was transfected by lipofectamine™ rnaimax as transfection reagent. hscs were cultured in imdm medium containing 10% fbs and early acting cytokines (flt3l, scf, tpo) for 8 days. then we evaluated tgfbr2 expression by qrt-pcr. the cd34+ subpopulation of cultured cells were examined by flow cytometry on the 8th day. finally the expanded cells were evaluated for the presence of early hematopoietic stem cells by lt-cic and clonogenic assays. results: according to our results, tgfbr2 down regulation increases cd34+ subpopulation of hscs. in addition, lt-cic assay showed an enhancement in primitive hematopoietic stem cell capable of self-renewal. conclusion: all in all, it seems that positive regulators have attracted more attention in the field of hscs expansion while negative regulators have same importance in self-renewal process of hscs and their inhibition can be a beneficial tool for enhancement of hscs self-renewa.

مهار مسیر TGF-b بهوسیله تکنیک RNAi در سلولهای بنیادی خونساز کشت داده شده روی داربست سه بعدی DBM
Background: Bone Marrow Transplantations (BMT) are limited by low CD34+ cell counts in umbilical cord blood (UCB) and these cells need to be expanded for success in such procedures. To achieve this goal, ex vivo expansion of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) by enhancing their self-renewal activity on demineralized bone matrix (DBM) scaffold coated with mesenchymal progenitor cells (MPCs) and unr...

BACKGROUND Use of peripheral blood- or bone marrow-derived progenitors for ischemic heart repair is a feasible option to induce neo-vascularization in ischemic tissues. These cells, named Endothelial Progenitors Cells (EPCs), have been extensively characterized phenotypically and functionally. The clinical efficacy of cardiac repair by EPCs cells remains, however, limited, due to cell autonomou...
متن کاملCellular copper content modulates differentiation and self-renewal in cultures of cord blood-derived CD34+ cells.
Several clinical observations have suggested that copper (Cu) plays a role in regulating haematopoietic progenitor cell (HPC) development. To further study this role we used an ex vivo system. Cord blood-derived CD34+ cells were cultured in liquid medium supplemented with Kit- ligand, FLt3, interleukin 6 (IL-6), thrombopoietin and IL-3. Under these conditions, Cu content, measured by atomic abs...
متن کاملHuman cord blood-derived primitive CD34-negative hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are myeloid-biased long-term repopulating HSCs
Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) possess both self-renewal and multi-lineage differentiation abilities and maintain lifelong hematopoiesis. Recent studies have revealed that the murine HSC compartment consists of heterogeneous HSC subpopulations in terms of their lineage-biased differentiation potentials. Dykstra et al. have recently categorized murine HSCs as α-, β-, γand δ-cells, according to ...
متن کاملEPCR: a novel marker of cultured cord blood HSCs.
These studies build on 2 prior observations, that exposure of CB-derived CD34 cells to UM171 leads to a rapid induction of EPCR expression both at the messenger RNA and protein levels and that EPCR expression can be used to identify murine HSCs, the latter finding suggesting that EPCR may be used similarly in the human setting. Identifying methods to quickly assess expansion of human HSCs ex vi...
