Adaptation of stem cells to 96-well plate assays: use of human embryonic and mouse neural stem cells in the MTT assay.
Human embryonic stem cells (hESC) are difficult to adapt to 96-well plate assays,such as the MTT assay,because they survive best when plated as colonies,which are not easily counted and plated accurately. Two methods were developed to address this problem. In the first,ROCK inhibitor (ROCKi) was used,which allows accurate counting and plating of single hESC. In the second,small colonies were plated without ROCKi but with adaptations for accurate counting and plating. The MTT assay was also adapted for use with mouse neural stem cells. These methods allow the MTT assay to be conducted rapidly and accurately with high reproducibility between replicate experiments. When screening volatile chemicals in a 96-well plate,vapor effects may occur and dose ranges must be carefully defined. The methods were validated using the NIH assay guidance tool. These methodss could readily be translated to other 96-well plate assay.

Efficient delivery of nuclease proteins for genome editing in human stem cells and primary cells.
Targeted nucleases,including zinc-finger nucleases (ZFNs),transcription activator-like (TAL) effector nucleases (TALENs) and clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9),have provided researchers with the ability to manipulate nearly any genomic sequence in human cells and model organisms. However,realizing the full potential of these genome-modifying technologies requires their safe and efficient delivery into relevant cell types. Unlike methods that rely on expression from nucleic acids,the direct delivery of nuclease proteins to cells provides rapid action and fast turnover,leading to fewer off-target effects while maintaining high rates of targeted modification. These features make nuclease protein delivery particularly well suited for precision genome engineering. Here we describe procedures for implementing protein-based genome editing in human embryonic stem cells and primary cells. Protocols for the expression,purification and delivery of ZFN proteins,which are intrinsically cell-permeable; TALEN proteins,which can be internalized via conjugation with cell-penetrating peptide moieties; and Cas9 ribonucleoprotein,whose nucleofection into cells facilitates rapid induction of multiplexed modifications,are described,along with procedures for evaluating nuclease protein activity. Once they are constructed,nuclease proteins can be expressed and purified within 6 d,and they can be used to induce genomic modifications in human cells within 2 d.

The transcriptionally active form of AML1 is required for hematopoietic rescue of the AML1-deficient embryonic para-aortic splanchnopleural (P-Sp) region.
Acute myelogenous leukemia 1 (AML1; runt-related transcription factor 1 [Runx1]) is a member of Runx transcription factors and is essential for definitive hematopoiesis. Although AML1 possesses several subdomains of defined biochemical functions,the physiologic relevance of each subdomain to hematopoietic development has been poorly understood. Recently,the consequence of carboxy-terminal truncation in AML1 was analyzed by the hematopoietic rescue assay of AML1-deficient mouse embryonic stem cells using the gene knock-in approach. Nonetheless,a role for specific internal domains,as well as for mutations found in a human disease,of AML1 remains to be elucidated. In this study,we established an experimental system to efficiently evaluate the hematopoietic potential of AML1 using a coculture system of the murine embryonic para-aortic splanchnopleural (P-Sp) region with a stromal cell line,OP9. In this system,the hematopoietic defect of AML1-deficient P-Sp can be rescued by expressing AML1 with retroviral infection. By analysis of AML1 mutants,we demonstrated that the hematopoietic potential of AML1 was closely related to its transcriptional activity. Furthermore,we showed that other Runx transcription factors,Runx2/AML3 or Runx3/AML2,could rescue the hematopoietic defect of AML1-deficient P-Sp. Thus,this experimental system will become a valuable tool to analyze the physiologic function and domain contribution of Runx proteins in hematopoiesis.

Collagen matrix: an attractive alternative to agar and methylcellulose for the culture of hematopoietic progenitors in autologous transplantation products.
Autografts using untreated or in vitro manipulated bone marrow and peripheral blood stem cells represent promising approaches to the treatment of malignant diseases. In this work,the collagen gel culture technique was compared with agar and methylcellulose for its capacity to permit the growth of human granulomonocytic (day 14 CFU-GM; collagen vs agar or MTC) or erythroblastic (day 7 CFU-E and day 14 BFU-E; collagen versus methylcellulose) colonies in autologous transplantation products. Our results show that the collagen culture system always gave as many or more colonies than the other techniques. It also allowed harvesting of gels onto glass slides and subsequent May-Grünwald-Giemsa,cytochemical or immunocytochemical staining. We suggest that the collagen assay represents an interesting alternative to the widely used agar or methylcellulose systems for the culture of hematopoietic progenitors because of the equal or higher number of colonies detected,the easy phenotypical identification of colonies in stained gels,and the ability to store high-quality documentation. This technique is particularly attractive for use in the quality control of autologous bone marrow transplantation procedures.

Mixed T Lymphocyte Chimerism after Allogeneic Hematopoietic Transplantation Is Predictive for Relapse of Acute Myeloid Leukemia and Myelodysplastic Syndromes.
Chimerism testing after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) represents a promising tool for predicting disease relapse,although its precise role in this setting remains unclear. We investigated the predictive value of T lymphocyte chimerism analysis at 90 to 120 days after allo-HSCT in 378 patients with AML/MDS who underwent busulfan/fludarabine-based myeloablative preparative regimens. Of 265 (70%) patients with available T lymphocyte chimerism data,43% of patients in first or second complete remission (CR1/CR2) at the time of transplantation had complete (100%) donor T lymphocytes at day +90 to +120 compared with 60% of patients in the non-CR1/CR2 cohort (P = .005). In CR1/CR2 patients,donor T lymphocyte chimerism ?85% at day +90 to +120 was associated with a higher frequency of 3-year disease progression (29%; 95% confidence interval [CI],18% to 46% versus 15%; 95% CI,9% to 23%; hazard ratio [HR],2.1; P = .04). However,in the more advanced,non-CR1/CR2 cohort,mixed T lymphocyte chimerism was not associated with relapse (37%; 95% CI,20% to 66% versus 34%; 95% CI,25% to 47%; HR,1.3; P = .60). These findings demonstrate that early T lymphocyte chimerism testing at day +90 to +120 is a useful approach for predicting AML/MDS disease recurrence in patients in CR1/CR2 at the time of transplantation.

Ex vivo expansion of human hematopoietic stem cells by garcinol, a potent inhibitor of histone acetyltransferase.
BACKGROUND: Human cord blood (hCB) is the main source of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSCs/PCs) for transplantation. Efforts to overcome relative shortages of HSCs/PCs have led to technologies to expand HSCs/PCs ex vivo. However,methods suitable for clinical practice have yet to be fully established. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: In this study,we screened biologically active natural products for activity to promote expansion of hCB HSCs/PCs ex vivo,and identified Garcinol,a plant-derived histone acetyltransferase (HAT) inhibitor,as a novel stimulator of hCB HSC/PC expansion. During a 7-day culture of CD34(+)CD38(-) HSCs supplemented with stem cell factor and thrombopoietin,Garcinol increased numbers of CD34(+)CD38(-) HSCs/PCs more than 4.5-fold and Isogarcinol,a derivative of Garcinol,7.4-fold. Furthermore,during a 7-day culture of CD34(+) HSCs/PCs,Garcinol expanded the number of SCID-repopulating cells (SRCs) 2.5-fold. We also demonstrated that the capacity of Garcinol and its derivatives to expand HSCs/PCs was closely correlated with their inhibitory effect on HAT. The Garcinol derivatives which expanded HSCs/PCs inhibited the HAT activity and acetylation of histones,while inactive derivatives did not. CONCLUSIONS/SIGNIFICANCE: Our findings identify Garcinol as the first natural product acting on HSCs/PCs and suggest the inhibition of HAT to be an alternative approach for manipulating HSCs/PCs.

Hematopoietic differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cells from patients with mucopolysaccharidosis type I (Hurler syndrome).
Mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS IH; Hurler syndrome) is a congenital deficiency of α-L-iduronidase,leading to lysosomal storage of glycosaminoglycans that is ultimately fatal following an insidious onset after birth. Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a life-saving measure in MPS IH. However,because a suitable hematopoietic donor is not found for everyone,because HCT is associated with significant morbidity and mortality,and because there is no known benefit of immune reaction between the host and the donor cells in MPS IH,gene-corrected autologous stem cells may be the ideal graft for HCT. Thus,we generated induced pluripotent stem cells from 2 patients with MPS IH (MPS-iPS cells). We found that α-L-iduronidase was not required for stem cell renewal,and that MPS-iPS cells showed lysosomal storage characteristic of MPS IH and could be differentiated to both hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic cells. The specific epigenetic profile associated with de-differentiation of MPS IH fibroblasts into MPS-iPS cells was maintained when MPS-iPS cells are gene-corrected with virally delivered α-L-iduronidase. These data underscore the potential of MPS-iPS cells to generate autologous hematopoietic grafts devoid of immunologic complications of allogeneic transplantation,as well as generating nonhematopoietic cells with the potential to treat anatomical sites not fully corrected with HCT.

Efficacy and safety of a clinically relevant foamy vector design in human hematopoietic repopulating cells.
BACKGROUND Previous studies have shown that foamy viral (FV) vectors are a promising alternative to gammaretroviral and lentiviral vectors and also that insulators can improve FV vector safety. However,in a previous analysis of insulator effects on FV vector safety,strong viral promoters were used to elicit genotoxic events. In the present study,we developed and analyzed the efficacy and safety of a high-titer,clinically relevant FV vector driven by the housekeeping promoter elongation factor-1alpha$ and insulated with an enhancer blocking A1 insulator (FV-EGW-A1). METHODS Human CD34+ cord blood cells were exposed to an enhanced green fluorescent protein expressing vector,FV-EGW-A1,at a multiplicity of infection of 10 and then maintained in vitro or transplanted into immunodeficient mice. Flow cytometry was used to measure engraftment and marking in vivo. FV vector integration sites were analyzed to assess safety. RESULTS FV-EGW-A1 resulted in high-marking,multilineage engraftment of human repopulating cells with no evidence of silencing. Engraftment was highly polyclonal with no clonal dominance and a promising safety profile based on integration site analysis. CONCLUSIONS An FV vector with an elongation factor-1alpha$ promoter and an A1 insulator is a promising vector design for use in the clinic.

Sex hormones, acting on the TERT gene, increase telomerase activity in human primary hematopoietic cells.
Androgens have been used in the treatment of bone marrow failure syndromes without a clear understanding of their mechanism of action. Blood counts of patients with dyskeratosis congenita or aplastic anemia with mutations in telomerase genes can improve with androgen therapy. Here we observed that exposure in vitro of normal peripheral blood lymphocytes and human bone marrow-derived CD34(+) cells to androgens increased telomerase activity,coincident with higher TERT mRNA levels. Cells from patients who were heterozygous for telomerase mutations had low baseline telomerase activity,which was restored to normal levels by exposure to androgens. Estradiol had an effect similar to androgens on TERT gene expression and telomerase enzymatic activity. Tamoxifen abolished the effects of both estradiol and androgens on telomerase function,and letrozole,an aromatase inhibitor,blocked androgen effects on telomerase activity. Conversely,flutamide,an androgen receptor antagonist,did not affect androgen stimulation of telomerase. Down-regulation by siRNA of estrogen receptor-alpha (ER alpha),but not ER beta,inhibited estrogen-stimulated telomerase function. Our results provide a mechanism for androgen therapy in bone marrow failure: androgens appear to regulate telomerase expression and activity mainly by aromatization and through ER alpha. These findings have potential implications for the choice of current androgenic compounds and the development of future agents for clinical use.

Angiopoietin-like protein 3 supports the activity of hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow niche.
The physiologic roles of angiopoietin-like proteins (Angptls) in the hematopoietic system remain unknown. Here we show that hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in Angptl3-null mice are decreased in number and quiescence. HSCs transplanted into Angptl3-null recipient mice exhibited impaired repopulation. Bone marrow sinusoidal endothelial cells express high levels of Angptl3 and are adjacent to HSCs. Importantly,bone marrow stromal cells or endothelium deficient in Angptl3 have a significantly decreased ability to support the expansion of repopulating HSCs. Angptl3 represses the expression of the transcription factor Ikaros,whose unregulated overexpression diminishes the repopulation activity of HSCs. Angptl3,as an extrinsic factor,thus supports the stemness of HSCs in the bone marrow niche.
