Abstract
A method of preparing an undifferential cell is described. The method comprises contacting a more committed cell with an agent that causes the more committed cell to retrodifferentiate into an uundifferentiated cell.
Description
A METHOD OF PREPARING AN UNDIFFERENTIATED CELL
The present invention relates to a method of preparing an undifferentiated cell.
In particular, the present invention relates to a method of preparing an undifferentiated cell from a more committed cell.
In addition the present invention relates to the use of the undifferentiated cell of the present invention for the preparation of a new more committed cell - i.e. a recommitted cell.
The present invention also relates to the use of the undifferentiated cell of the present invention or the recommitted cell of the present invention to have an effect (directly or indirectly via the use of products obtained therefrom) on the immune system, such 15 as the alleviation of symptoms associated with, or the partial or complete cure from, an immunological condition or disease.
By way of introduction, differentiation is a process whereby structures and functions C* ·. of cells are progressively committed to give rise to more specialised cells, such as the CU formation of T cells or B cells. Therefore, as the cells become more committed, they become more specialised.
In contrast, retro-differentiation is a process whereby structures and functions of cells are progressively changed to give rise to less specialised cells.
Undifferentiated cells are capable of multilineage differentiation - i.e. they are capable of differentiating into two or more types of specialised cells. A typical example of an undifferentiated cell is a stem cell.
In contrast, differentiated cells are incapable of multilineage differentiation. A typical example of a differentiated cell is a T cell.
AP.00693
-- There are many undifferentiated cells and differentiated cells found in vivo and the general an is replete with general teachings on them.
By way of example, reference may be made to inter alia Levitt and Mertelsman 1995 (Haematopoietic Stem Cells, published by Marcel Dekker Inc - especially pages 4559) and Roirt et al (Immunology, 4th Edition, Eds. Roitt, Brostoff and Male 1996, Publ. Mosby - especially Chapter 10).
In short, however, examples of undifferentiated cells include lymphohaematopoietic progenitor cells (LPCs). LPCs include pluripotent stem cells (PSCs). lymphoid stem cells (LSCs) and myeloid stem cells.(MSCs). LSCs and MSCs are each formed by the differentiation of PSCs. Hence, LSCs and MSCs are more committed than PSCs.
Examples of differentiated cells include T cells, B cells, eosinophils, basophils, .5 neutrophils, megakaryocytes, monocytes, erythrocytes, granulocytes, mast cells, and lymphocytes.
T cells a^d B cells are formed by the differentiation of I 3Cs. Hence, T cells and B ceils are more committed than LSCs.
Eosinophils, basophils, neutrophils, megakaryocytes, monocytes, erythrocytes, granulocytes, mast cells, NKs, and lymphocytes are formed by the differentiation of MSCs. Hence, each of these cells are more committed than MSCs.
Antigens are associated with undifferentiated and differentiated celis. The term associated here means the cells expressing or capable of expressing, or presenting or capable of being induced to present, or comprising, the respective antigen(s).
Most undifferentiated cells and differentiated cells comprise Major Histocompatability
Complex (MHC) Class I antigens and/or Class II antigens. If these antigens are associated with those cells then they are called Class L and/or Class ΙΓ cells.
AP . Ο Ο 6 9 3
Each specific antigen associated with an undifferentiated cell or a differentiated cell can act as a marker. Hence, different types of cells can be distinguished from each other on the basis of their associated particular antigen(s) or on the basis of a particular combination of associated antigens.
Examples of these marker antigens include the antigens CD34, CD 19 and CDS. If these anigens are present then these particular cells are called CD34*, CD19T and CD3T cells respectively. If these antigens are not present then these cells are called CD34', CD19’ and CDS' cells respectively.

In more detail, PSCs are CD34+ cells. LSCs are DR+, CD344- and TdT+ cells.
□ MSCs are CD34+, DR\ CD13+, CD33\ CD7* and TdT+ cells. B cells are
CD19+, CD21 + , CD22+ and DR+ cells. T cells are CD2+, CD3 + , and either CD4+ or CD8 cells. Immature lymphocytes are CD4 and CD8+ cells. Activated T cells are DR+ cells. Natural killer cells (NKs) are CD56+ and CD16+ cells. T lymphocytes are CD7+cells. Leukocytes are CD45* cells. C. anulocytes are CD 13* and CD33+ cells. Monocyte macrophage cells are CD14 and DR+ cells / O'
Hence, by looking for the presence of the above-listed antigen'markers it is possible 20 to identify certain cell types (e.g. whether or not a cell is an undifferentiated cell or , a differentiated cell) and the specialisation of that cell type (e.g. whether that cell is a T cell or a B cell).
o
The general concept of retrodifferentiation is not new. In fact, in 1976 Jose Uriel 25 (Cancer Research 36, 4269-4275. November 1976) presented a review on this topic, in which he said:
97/01031 ''retrodifferentiation appears as a common adaptive process for the maintenance of cell integrity against deleterious agents of varied etiology (physical, chemical, and viral). While preserving the entire information encoded on its genome, cells undergoing retrodifferentiation lose morphological and functional complexity by
AP . Ο Ο 6 9 3 virtue of a process of self-deletion of cytoplasmic structures and the transition to a more juvenile pattern of gene expression. This results in a progressive uniformization of originally distinct cell phenotypes and to a decrease of responsiveness to regulatory signals operational in adult cells. Retrodifferentiation is normally counterbalanced by a process of reontogeny that tends to restore the terminal phenotypes where the reversion started. This explains why retrodifferentiation remains invariably associated to cell regeneration and tissue repair.
Uriel {ibid) then went on to discuss cases of reported retrodifferentiation - such as the work of Gurdon relating to nuclei from gut epithelial cells of Xenopus tadpoles (Advances in Morphogenesis [1966] vol 4, pp 1-43. New York Academic Press, Eds Abercrombie and Bracher), and the work of Bresnick relating to regeneration of liver (Methods in Cancer Research [1971] vol 6, pp 347-391).
Uriel {ibid) also reported on work relating to Isolated liver parenchymal cells rf vitro cultures. According to Uriel;
Contrary to the results with fetal or neonatal hepatdcytes, with hepatocytes from regenerating liver, or from established hepatomas, it has been difficult to obtain permanent class lines from resting adult hepatocytes.
Uriel {ibid) also reported on apparent retrodifferentiation in cancer, wherein he stated:
the biochemical phenotypes of many tumours show analogous changes of reversion toward immaturity ... during the preneoplastic phase of liver carcinogenesis, cells also retrodifferentiate.
More recent findings on retrodifferentiation include the work of Minoru Fukunda (Cancer Research [1981] vol 41, pp 4621-4628). Fukunda induced specific changes in the cell surface glycoprotein profile of K562 human leukaemic cells by use of the lei 9 7 7 0 1 0 3 1

AP.00693 tumour-promoting phorbol ester, 12-0-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA).
According to Fukunda TPA appeared to induce the K562 human leukaemic cells into a retrodifferentiated stage.
Also, Hass et al (Cell Growth & Differentiation [1991] vol 2, pp 541-548) reported that long term culture of TPA-differentiated U-937 leukaemia cells in the absence of phorbol ester for 32-36 days resulted in a process of retrodifferentiation and that the retrodifferentiated cells detached from the substrate and reinitiated proliferation.
• 10 Another case of retrodifferentiation is the work of Curtin and Snell (Br. J. Cancer [1983] vol 48, pp 495-505], These workers compared enzymatic changes occurring during diethylmtrosamine-induced hepatocarcinogenesis and liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy to normal liver differentiation. Theses workers found changes in enzyme activities during carcinogenesis that were similar to a step-wise reversal of differentiation. According to these workers, their results suggest that an underlying retrodifferentiation process is common to both the process of hepatocarcinogenesis and liver regeneration.
More recently, Chastre et al (FEBS Letters [1985] vol 188, number 2, pp 2810-2811] reported on the retrodifferentiation of the human colonic cancerous subclone HT29□ 18·
O
Even more recently, Kobayashi et al (Leukaemia Research [1994] vol 18, no. 12, pp 929-933) have reported on the establishment of a retrodifferentiated cell line (RD-1) from a single rat myelomonocyticleukemia cell which differentiated into a macrophage-like cell by treatment with lipopolysaccharide (LPS).
According to the current understanding, as borne out by the teachings found on page 911 of Molecular Biology of the Cell (pub. Garland Publishers Inc. 1983) and more recently Levitt and Mertelsman (ibid), a stem cell, such as a PSC, has the following four characteristics:

iii. it has the ability to give rise to differentiated progeny, such as the differentiated cells mentioned earlier; and iv. when it divides each daughter has a choice: it can either remain as PSC like its parent or it can embark on a course leading irreversibly to terminal differentiation.
Note should be made of the last qualification, namely that according to the general teachings in the art once an undifferentiated cell has differentiated to a more committed cell it can not then retrodifferentiate. This understanding was even supported by the teachings of Uriel (ibid), Fukunda (ibid), Hass et al (ibid), Curtin and Snell (ibid), Chastre et al (ibid), and Kobayashi et al (ibid) as these workers retrodifferentiated certain types of differentiated cells but wherein those cells remained committed to the same lineage and they did not retrodifferentiate into undifferentiated cells.
Therefore, ?. ·. · hng to the stav.·. Ά the art fTore the present invention, it was believed that it was not possible to form undifferentiated cells, 'such as stem cells, from more committed ceils. However, the present invention shows that this belief is inaccurate and that it is possible to form undifferentiated cells from more committed cells.

A MATERIALS AND METHODS
PATIENTS
Blood samples were obtained in lavender top tubes containing EDTA from patients with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukaemia’s, patients with antibody deficiency (including IgA deficiency and X-linked infantile hypogammaglobulinaemias), patients with HIV infections and AIDS syndrome, a patient with CMV infection, a patient with Hodgkin’s lymphomas, a patient with acute T-cell leukaemia, a 6-days old baby
AP.00693 with Hodgkin’s lymphomas, a patient with acute T-cell leukaemia, a 6-days old baby with blastcytosis, various patients with various infections and clinical conditions, cord blood, bone marrow’s, and enriched B-lymphocyte preparations of healthy blood donors.
CLINICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL CONDITIONS
The clinical and experimental treatment conditions of patients, including various types of treatment applied to their blood samples, are described in Table 1. Differential ' 10 white blood cell (WBC) counts were obtained using a Coulter Counter and these are included in the same Table.
o
TREATMENT OF BLOOD
Blood samples, once obtained, were treated with pure monoclonal antibody to the 15 homologous region of the β-chain of the HLA-DR antigen (DAKO) and left to mix on a head to head roller at room temperature for a maximum of 24 hours. Some samples were mixed first on a head to head roller for 15 minutes after which they were left to incubate in an incubator at 22°C. The concentration of monoclonal antibody added to blood samples varied from 10-50/xl/ml of blood.
(' ) In addition, other treatments treatments were applied at the same concentrations and rj these included addition of a monoclonal antibody to the homologous of the a-chain of the HLA-DR antigen, a monoclonal antibody to the homologous region of class I antigens, a monoclonal antibody to CD4, a monoclonal antibody to CD8, and a PE conjugated monoclonal antibody to the homologous region of the β-chain of the HLADR antigen.
Other treatments included the simultaneous addition of monoclonal antibodies to the homologous regions of the a and β-chains of the HLA-DR antigen to blood samples.
Furthermore, alkylating agents such as cyclophosphoamide were added to blood samples in combination with pure monoclonal antibody to the homologous region of

AP .0 0 6 9 3 the /3-chain of the HLA-DR antigen.
Following these treatments blood samples were stained with panels of labelled monoclonal antibodies as instructed by the manufacturer’s instructions and then analyzed using flow cytometry.
Incubation periods with monoclonal antibodies ranged from 2 hour, 4 hour, 6 hour, 12 hour to 24 hour intervals.
LABELLED ANTIBODIES
The following monoclonal antibodies were used to detect the following markers on cells by flow cytometry: CD 19 and CD3, CD4 and CD8, DR and CD3, CD56 & 16 and CD3. CD45 and CD14, CD8 and CD3, CD8 and CD28, simultest conn ol (IgGl FITC -r IgG2a PE), CD34 e.ud CD2, CD7 and CD13 & 33.

f
Each patient's blood sample, both treated and untreated, was analyzed using the majority of the above panel in order to account for the immunophenotypic changes that accompanied different types of treatments and these were carried out separately on different aliquots of the same blood sample. Untreated samples and other control treatments were stained and analyzed simultaneously.
FLOW CYTOMETRY
Whole blood sample was stained and lysed according to the manufacturer instructions. Flow cytomety analysis was performed on a FACScan® with either simultest or PAINT A GATE software (BDIS) which included negative controls back tracking.
10,000 to 20.000 events were acquired and stored in list mode files.

MORPHOLOGY
Morphology was analyzed using microscopy and Wright’s stain.
R RESULTS
CD 19 AND CD3 PANEL
Treatment of blood samples with monoclonal antibody to the homologous region of the β-chain of the HLA-DR antigen always decreased the relative number of CD 19” cells. This marker is a pan B-cell antigen (see Table). This antigen is present on all human B lymphocytes at all stages of maturation but is lost on terminally differentiated plasma cells. Hence, this is an indication that B cells were retrodifferentiating into undifferentiated cells.
15 .
The same treatment caused the relative number of CD3 ” cells to increase dramatically especially in blood of patients with B-CLL, which was always accompanied by an increase ir the relative number in CD3'CD19‘ cells. CD3 is present on ail mature T-lymphocytes and oil 65 %-85% of thymocytes. This marker is always found in association with οί-/β- or gamma/delta T-cell receptors (TCR) and together these complexes are important in transducing signals to the cell interior. Hence, this is an indication that B cells were retrodifferentiating into undifferentiated cells and then being committed to new differentiated cells, namely T cells.
A novel clone of cells appeared in treated blood of B-CLL patients co-expressing the CD19 and CD3 markers - i.e. CD19~ and CD3+ cells (see Charts 1, patient 2, 3 & 4 at 2hr. 6hr & 24hr of starting treatment). Other patients with different conditions showed an increase in the relative number of these clones of cells. These cells were exceptionally large and heavily granulated and extremely high levels of CD 19 were expressed on their cell membrane. The CD3 marker seems to be expressed on these cells at similar levels to those expressed on normal mature lymphocytes.
AP/P/ 9 7 / 0 1 0 3 1 Ap . Ο Ο 6 9 3
........In Table 2, patient numbers 2, 3 and 4 are actually numbers representing the same patient and their delineation was merely to show the effect of treatment on blood with time (See Table 1 for experimental and clinical condition of this patient).
The CD 19 CDS* clones in treated samples seem to decrease with time, reaching original levels to those determined in untreated sample at 2hrs, 6hrs and 24hrs time.
Another type of cell of the same size and granulity was detected in treated samples and these cells had high levels of CD 19 expressed on their surface but were negative for the CD3 marker and rich in FC receptors. However, the relative number of these cells appeared to decrease in time. Of interest, at 24 hours treatment of blood sample (2, 3 and 4) there was a decrease in the relative number of CD19OD3' cells in a group of cells that were initially observed to increase after 2 and 6 hr’s treatment of blood samples. However, Coulter counts of WBC populations were reduced on j .j treatment of blood with monoclonal antibody to the homologous region of the /3-chain of the HLA-DR antigen. This finding suggest? that this type uf treatment gives rise to atypical cells that cannot be detected by Coulter (Table 1) but can be accounted for when measured by flow cytometry which counts cells on the basis of surface markers, size and granulity. Furthermore, these atypical cells were accounted for by analysing morphology using Wright’s stain under a microscope. Flow cytometric charts of these phenomena are represented in Charts (1, 2, 3 & 4) and the immunophenotypic changes obtained on treatment of blood samples seems to suggest that CD 19“ and CD3* lymphocytes are an interconnected group of cells but remain distinct on the basis of CD 19 and CD3 relative expression compared to stem cells.
In Table 2, patient numbers 5 and 6 represent the same patient but analysis of treated and untreated blood samples were monitored with time and at the same time (see Table 1).
Patients blood with no B-cell malignancy showed similar trends of immunophenotypic changes when compared to blood of B-CLL patients but the changes were not to the same extent. However, the relative and absolute number of Β-lymphocytes and MHC
AP/P/ 97/01031
AP . Ο Ο 6 9 3 class II positive cells in the blood of these patients are extremely low. compared to . those found in the blood of B-CLL patients.
Two brothers both with X-linked infantile hypogammaglobulinemia who were B cell deficient showed different immunophenotypic changes in the relative number of CD3 * cells on treatment of their blood. The younger brother who was 2 months old and not ill. on treatment of his blood, showed a slight increase in the relative number of CDS cells which was accompanied by a decrease in the relative number of CD3' CD19‘ cells. On the other hand, the other brother who was 2 years old and was 10 extremely sick and with a relatively high number of activated T cells expressing the DR antisens showed a decrease in the number of CD3+ cells on treatment of his blood. No other markers were used to measure other immunophentypic changes that might have occurred because the blood samples obtained from these two patients were extremely small (Table 2, ID 43/BD and 04/BD).
Patient 91 in Table 2 shows a decrease in the relative number of CD3+ cells following treatment of blood which was accompanied by an increase in the relative number of CD3'CD19' cells. However, on analysis of other surface markers such as CD4 and CD8 (see Table 3) the patient was observed to have a high relative number 20 of CD4+CD8* cells in his blood and this was noted prior to treatment of blood samples with monoclonal antibody to the β-chain of the DR antigen and these double positive cells decreased appreciably following treatment of blood. Furthermore, when further markers were analyzed the relative number of CD3+ cells were seen to have elevated (See Table 4).
An enriched preparation of B-lymphocytes obtained from healthy blood donors when treated with monoclonal antibody to the β-chain of DR antigens showed a dramatic increase in the relative number of CD3* cells which were always accompanied by a decrease in the relative number of CD 19 cells and by an increase in the relative number of CD19‘CD3' cells. Further analysis using markers such as CD4 and CD8 show a concomitant increase in the relative number of these markers. However, an enriched preparation of T lymphocytes of the same blood donors when treated with

CD4 AND CDS PANEL
The CD4 antigen is the receptor for the human immunodificiency virus. The CD4 molecule binds MHC class II antigen in the B2 domain, a region which is similar to the CD8 binding sites on class I antigens. Binding of CD4 to class II antigen enhances T cell responsiveness to antigens and so does the binding of CD8 to class I antigens. The CD8 antigens are present on the human supressor/cytotoxic T10 lymphocytes subset as well as on a subset of natural killer (NK) lymphocytes and a . majority of normal thymocytes. The CD4 and CD8 antigens are coexpressed on thymocytes and these cells lose either markers as they mature into T-lymphocytes.
On analysis of the CD4 and CD8 markers - see below - and from a majority of blood t5 samples presented in Table 2, a pattern of staining emerges which supports the presence of a retrodifferentiation process of B-lymphocytes into undifferentiated cells and tire subsequent differentiation into T-lymphocytes.

CD4+CD8~ cells, which are double positive cells, always appeared following β»;
Ό treatment of blood samples with monoclonal antibody to the homologous region of the 0 β-chain and these types of cells were markedly increased in the blood of treated samples of patients with B-CLL and which were absent altogether in untreated samples (See Table 3 and Charts 1, 2 3 & 4). In the same specimens the relative number of single positive cells such as CDS' and CD4 cells was also noted to increase simultaneously. Furthermore, a decrease in the relative number of CD4'
CD8' cells which, at least in the case of B-CLL correspond to B cells was noted to fall dramatically in treated samples when compared to untreated specimens which remained at the same level when measured with time. However, measurement of the relative number of CD4CD8 cells with time 'in treated samples showed that there was a concomitant increase in the number of single positive cells with a decrease in the relative number of double positive cells. This type of immunophenotypic change is characteristic of thymic development of progenitor cells of the T-lymphocyte
31 . Ο Ο 6 9 3 lineage in the thymus (Patient number 2,3 and 4). The CD4 antigen is present on the helper/inducer T- lymphocyte subsets (CD4+CD3+) and a majority of normal thymocytes. However, this antigen is present in low density on the cell surface of monocytes and. in the cytoplasm of monocytes and macrophages (CD3'CD4+).
The relative number of CD4+ low cells was affected differently in different blood samples following treatment. The relative number of this type of cells seems unaffected in blood samples of patients with B-CLL following treatment when compared to untreated samples. Such low levels of CD4 expression is found on ’ 10 monocytes and very early thymocytes.
Patient HIV+25 on treatment showed a substantial increase in the number of double positive cells expressing CD4 and CD8 simultaneously. On the other hand, patient 91 on treatment showed a decrease in this subtype of cells and the observation of such phenomenon is time dependent.. The relative number of CD8+ cells was observed to increase in untreated blood samples of patients with B-CLL when measured with time whereas the relative number of CD4+ and CD4* low cells was.observed to decrease at the same times (Table 3 patient 2.3 and 4).

··'·) The DR markers are present on monocytes, dendritic cells, B-cells and activated TIvmphocytes.
Treated and untreated samples analysed with this panel showed similar immunophenotypic changes to those obtained when blood samples were analysed with the CD19 and CD3 markers (see Table 2) and these antigens as mentioned earlier are pan B and T-cell markers respectively.
Treatment of blood with monoclonal antibodies seems to affect the relative number of DR B-lymphocytes so that the level of DR-.- cells decrease. In contrast, the relative number of CD3+ (T-cells) cells increase significantly (see Table 4 and Chart).

Furthermore, the relative number of activated T cells increased in the majority of treated blood samples of patients with B-CLL and these types of cells were affected variably in treated samples of patients with other conditions. Furthermore, the relative number of DR high positive cells appeared in significant numbers in treated samples of patients with B-CLL and a 6 day old baby with increased DR+ CD34 blasts in his blood. However, it should be noted that the blasts which were present in this patient’s blood were negative for T and B-cell markers before and after treatment but became more positive for myeloid lineage antigens following treatment. The relative number of CD3'DR' cells increased in the majority of treated blood samples and was proportional to increases in the relative number of CD3+ cells (Tcells) and was inversely proportional to decreases in the relative number of DR+ cells (B-cells).
CD56&16 AND CD3 PANEL
The CD56&CD16 markers are found on a heterogeneous group of cells, a subset of lymphocytes known generally as large granular lymphocytes and.natural killer (NK) lymphocytes. The CD 16 antigen is expressed on virtually all resting NK lymphocytes * *' and is weakly expressed on some CDS4- T lymphocytes from certain individuals. This antigen is found on granulocytes in lower amount and is associated with lymphocytes containing large azurophilic granules. The CD 16 antigen is the igG FC receptor III.
A variable number of CD16+ lymphocytes coexpress either the CD57 antigen or low75 density CDS antigen or both. In most individuals, there is virtually no overlap with other T-lymphocyte antigens such as the CDS, CD4, or CDS antigens. The CD56 antigen is present on essentially all resting and activated CD 16 NK lymphocytes and these subsets of cells carry out non-major histocompatibility complex restricted cytotoxicity.
Immunophenotyping of treated and untreated blood samples of B-CLL and some other patients with other conditions showed an increase in the relative number of cells

These observations were also accompanied by a marked increase in the relative number of cells expressing the CDS antigen only (without the expression of CD56 and CD 16 markers) and cells coexpressing the CD56&CD16 and CD3 markers together.
In Table 5, patient numbers 2, 3, and 4 represent the same blood sample but being analysed at 2 hours, 6 hours and 24 hours respectively (before and after treatment). This sample shows that treatment of blood with monoclonal antibody to the • 10 homologous region of the 0-chain of DR antigen seems to cause spontaneous production of CD56+ and CD16' cells, CD3+ cells and CD56+ and CD16* CD3~ cells and these observations were always accompanied by the disappearance of B-cell markers (CD 19, DR, CD56. CD16’CD3-).
Onward analysis of this blood sample before and after treatment showed the levels of CD56 and CD 16* cells to decrease with time and the level of CD3 cells to increase with time.
Blood samples of patient 7 with B-CLL, did not show any changes in the number of cells expressing the CD56, CDI6 and CD3 antigens when compared to immunophenotypic changes observed in treated and untreated samples and this is because the amount of monoclonal antibody added was extremely low relative to the number of B lymphocytes. However, treatment of this patient’s blood sample on a separate occasion with an appropriate amount of monoclonal antibody showed significant increases in the relative number of CDS4-, CD56 & CD 16^ and CDS6 and CD 16- CD3+ cells.
Blood samples of other patients with other conditions showed variable changes in the level of these cells and this seems to be dependent on the number of B-lymphocytes present in blood before treatment, duration of treatment and probably the clinical condition of patients.

CD45 AND CD14 PANEL
The CD45 antigen is present on all human leukocytes, including lymphocytes, monocyres, polymorphonuclear cells, eosinophils, and basophils in peripheral blood, thymus, spleen, and tonsil, and leukocyte progenitors in bone marrow.
The CDM is present on 70% to 93% of normal peripheral blood monocytes, 77% to 90% of pleural or peritoneal fluid phagocytes. This antigen is weakly expressed on granulocytes and does not exist on unstimulated lymphocytes, mitogen-activated T lymphocytes, erythrocytes, or platelets.
The CD45 antigen represents a family of protein tyrosine phosphatases and this molecule interacts with external stimuli (antigens) and effects signal transduction via the Scr-family members leading to the regulation of cell growth and differentiation, o
Engagement of the 0-chain of the DR antigens in treated blood samples especially those obtained from patients with B-CLL suggests that such a Treatment affects the level of CD45 antigens on B-lymphocytes. The overall immunophenotypic changes ' f that took place on stimulation of the /3-chain of the DR antigen seem to give rise to different types of cells that can be segregated on the basis of the level of CD45 and CDM expression as well as morphology as determined by forward scatter and side scatter (size and granulity respectively) and these results are presented in Table 6 and Chans (1. 2, 3. 4 & 5).

On treatment the relative number of CD45 low cells (when compared to untreated samples) increased significantly and so did the relative number of cells co-expressing the CD45 and CDM antigens. This type of immunophenotypic changes coincided with a decrease in the relative number of CD45 high cells (compared to untreated samples), However, this latter population of cells can be further divided on the basis of morphology and the degree of CD45 expression. One type was extremely large and had extremely high levels of CD45 antigen when compared to the rest of cells present in the charts (see chans 1, 2, 3 and 4). On analysis of this panel following
Ap . ο ο 6 y 3
....... treatment with time (see Table patient 2,3 and 4 and charts) the relative number of
CD45 + cells initially fell drastically with time to give rise to CD45 low cells. However, analysis of blood 24 hours later showed the opposite situation.
Samples 5 and 7 reveal opposite immunophenotypic changes to those obtained with other samples obtained from other B-CLL patients and this is because the samples were analysed at a much earlier incubation time with the monoclonal antibody. In fact the sequential analysis of blood samples after treatment seems to suggest that the immunophenotypic changes undertaken by B lymphocytes is time dependent because it represents a stage of development and the immunophenotypic changes measured at time X is not going to be the same at time X plus (its not fixed once induced).
However, these types of changes must be occurring in a more stringent manner in the body otherwise immunopathology would ensue. The effect of treatment of blood samples from other patients with no B-cell malignancy show variable changes in immunophenotypes of cells and this because B-lymphocytes are present in lower amount. However, treatment of enriched fractions of B-lymphocytes obtained from healthy blood donors show similar immunophenotypic changes to those obtained with B-CLL with high B lymphocyte counts.
CD8 AND CD3 PANEL ©
The CD8 antigenic determinant interacts with class I MHC molecules, resulting in increased adhesion between the CD8+ T lymphocytes and the target cells. This type of interaction enhances the activation of resting lymphocytes. The CD8 antigen is coupled to a protein tyrosine kinase (p56ick) and in turn the CD8/p56ick complex may play a role in T-lymphocyte activation.
Treatment of blood samples obtained from patients with B-CLL with monoclonal antibody to the B chain causes a significant increase in the relative number of
CD3CD8 and CD3 (highly likely to be CD4CD3) positive cells thus indicating more clearly that double positive cells generated initially are undergoing development into mature T-lymphocytes. This is a process that can be measured directly by CD 19 and

AP . Ο Ο 6 9 3 by DR and indirectly by CD8'CD3' antigens. Serial assessment of treated blood samples of the same patient with time seems to agree with a process which is identical to thymocyte development (Table 7, patient 2, 3 and 4 and Chart 1).
The relative number of CDS cells increased with time in treated and untreated samples but to a higher extent in untreated samples. On the other hand, the relative number of CD8’CD3+ cells decreased with time in untreated samples. However, the relative number of CD3~ cells increased in treated blood samples when measured with time and these types of cells highly correspond to CD4~CD3 single positive cells; a maturer form of thymocytes. In addition, since these samples were also immunophenotyped with other panels (mentioned above in Tables 3, 4, 5 and 6) the overall changes extremely incriminate B cells in the generation of T lymphocyte progenitors and progenies.

On comparison of PE conjugated treatment clearly indicates no change in the relative number of CD3 positive cells and

However, an increase in the number of CD45 positive cells with no DR antigen being expressed on their surface was noted when measured with time (see Table 8). A finding that was similar to that noted in untreated samples when immunophenotyped with time (Table 6). Furthermore, the relative number of cells expressing CD45 low decreased in time, a phenomenon which was also noted in the untreated samples (when measured with time) of the same patient (see chart 1A).

Treatment of blood samples with monoclonal antibody to the homologous region of the a-chain of the DR antigen and the homologous region of MHC Class I antigens decreased the number of CD3 cells and increased the number of CD 19 cells.

However, onward analysis (24 hours later patient 5/6 Table 14) of blood samples treated with cyclophosphamide plus monoclonal antibody to the β-chain of DR antigen show reversal in the relative number of CD19 and CDS cells when compared to that observed at 2 hour incubation time under

The relative number of CD19OD3' cells decreased slightly in blood samples treated with monoclonal antibody to the α-chain of DR antigen or treated with monoclonal antibody to class I antigens (see Table 14 & Chans 2, 3 & 4).

Treatment of HIV and IgA deficient patients with monoclonal antibody to the βchain of the DR antigen increased the relative number of CD3* cells and decreased the relative number of CD 19 cells. However, treatment of the same blood sample with monoclonal antibody to the homologous region of class I antigen did not produce the same effect. Treatment of blood samples obtained from patients (34/BD and 04/BD) with B-cell deficiency showed variable immunophenotypic changes when treated with monoclonal antibodies to the β-chain of the DR antigen, class I antigens and CD4 antigen.

Blood samples analysed using the CD19 and CD3 panel (Table 14) were also immunophenotyped with the CD4 and CD8 panel (Table 15). Both panels seem to agree and confirm each other.

CDS AND CD28 PANEL
The CD28 antigen is present on approximately 60% to 80% of peripheral blood T (CD3+) lymphocytes, 50% of CDS T lymphocytes and 5% of immature CD35 thymocytes. During thymocyte maturation, CD28 antigen expression increases from low density on most CD4+CD8 immature thymocytes to a higher density on virtually all mature CDS, CD4+ or CDS thymocytes. Cell activation further augments CD28 antigen density. Expression of the CD28 also divides the CDS lymphocytes into two functional groups. CD8CD28+ lymphocytes mediate alloantigen-specific cytotoxicity, that is major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-restricted.
Suppression of cell proliferation is mediated by the CD8+CD28' subset. The CD28 ί
antigen is a cell adhesion molecule and functions as a ligand for the B7/BB-1 antigen which is present on activated B lymphocytes.
Treatment of blood samples of patients (Table 19, patients 5/6 and 8) with B-CLL with monoclonal antibody to the homologous region of 0-chain of the DR antigen increased the relative number of CD8+, CD28+ and CD8+CD28J cells and all other types of treatments did not.

R SUMMARY
In short, the examples describe in vitro experiments that reveal extremely interesting 25 findings regarding the ontogeny and development of T and B lymphocytes which can be utilised in the generation of stem cells to affect Iymphohaematopoiesis in peripheral blood samples in a matter of hours.
Treatment of peripheral blood samples obtained from patients with B-cell chronic 30 lymphocytic leukaemia’s (B-CLL) with high B lymphocyte counts, with monoclonal antibody to the homologous region of the /3-chain of class-II antigens gave rise to a marked increase in the relative number of single positive (SP) T-lymphocytes and
AP . 0 Ο 6 9 3 their progenitors which were double positive for the thymocyte markers CD4 and CDS antigens and these were coexpressed simultaneously. However, these phenomena were always accompanied by a significant decrease in the relative number of B-lymphocytes. These observations were not noted when the same blood samples were treated with monoclonal antibodies to the homologous region of the cx-chain of class-II antigens or to the homologous region of class-I antigens.
Treatment of whole blood obtained from patients with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) with monoclonal antibody to the homologous region of the B chain of the HLA-DR antigen appeared to give rise to T-lymphopoiesis. This event was marked by the appearance of double positive cells coexpressing the CD4 and CDS markers, the appearance of cells expressing CD34 and the concomitant increase in the number of single positive CD4~ CD3+ and CD8* CD3* lymphocytes. Furthermore, the immunophenotypic changes that took place in the generation of such cells were identical to those cited for thymocyte development, especially when measured with time.
The percentages of double positive cells (DP) generated at 2 hour incubation time of whole blood with monoclonal antibody to the homologous region of the β-chain of the DR antigen, decreased with time and these vents were accompanied by increase in the percentages of single positive CD4+ CD3* and CDS* CD3 cells simultaneously and at later times too. TCR a and β chains were also expressed on these types of cells.

B-lymphocytes were constantly observed to lose markers such as CD19. CD21, CD23, IgM and DR and this coincided with the appearance of CD34~ and CD34 CD2~ ceils, increases in CD7~ cells, increases in CDS* CD28' and CD2S' cells, increases in CD25' cells, the appearance of CD10- and CD34' cells and CD34* and CD19* ceils increases in CDS' cells, and cells expressing low levels of CD45 antigen. These changes were due to treatment of blood with monoclonal antibody to the homologous region of the β-chain of HLA-DR antigen.
AP . Ο Ο 6 9 3
The immunophenotypic changes associated with such treatment is consistent with retrodifferentiation and subsequent commitment (i.e. recommitment) of B lymphocytes, because the majority of white blood cells in blood of patients with BCLL before treatment were B lymphocytes. Furthermore, B-lymphocytes of patients with B-CLL which were induced to become T-lymphocytes following treatment with cyclophosphamide and monoclonal antibody to the β-chain of HLA-DR antigen, were able to revert back to 3 lymphocytes following prolonged incubation with this treatment.

On analysis of treated samples with monoclonal antibody to the β-chain of HLA-DR antigen, with CD16&56 and CD3 and CD8 and CD3 panels, the relative number of cells expressing these markers steadily increases in increments consistent with those determined with panels such as CD 19 and CDS and DR and CDS. Investigation of the supernatant of treated and untreated samples of patients with HIV infection using nephlometry and Immunoelectrophoresis reveals increased levels of IgG indicating that the B-cells must have passed through the plasma cell stage. The increase in the
(7 relative number of all above-mentioned cells 'was also accompanied by the appearance of medium size heavily granulated cells expressing the CD56&16 antigens in extremely high amounts. Other cells which were extremely large and heavily granulated were observed transiently and these were positive for CD34 and double positive for CD4 CD8 markers. Other transient cells were also observed and these were large and granular and positive for the CDS and CD 19 receptors. CD25 which was present on the majority of B-lymphocytes was lost and became expressed by newly formed T-lymphocytes which were always observed to increase in number.
CD28+CD8_ and CD28 cells appeared after treatment of whole blood of patients with B-CLL with monoclonal antibody to the homologous region of the B chain of the DR antigen. These findings were due to treatment of blood with monoclonal antibody to the homologous region of the β-chain of HLA-DR antigen.

Vi and CDS3. These markers were coexpressed with the CD56 & 16 or the CD7 antigens. However, the relative number of CD7 cells with T-lymphocyte markers and without myeloid antigens was observed on a separate population of cells. These particular observations were not seen in untreated samples or in samples treated with monoclonal antibodies to class I antigens or the homologous region of the α-chain of HLA-DR antigen (see Chans 2 & 3). These final results suggest that B-lymphocytes once triggered via the /3-chain of the HLA-DR antigen are not only able to regress into T-lymphocyte progenitor cells but are also c.w me of existing into the myeloid and erythroid lineages.
η should be noted tl, t the stem cells that arc produced by the method of the present invention may be stem cells of any tissue and are not necessarily limited to lymphohaematopoietic progenitor cells.
