Under specific conditions they have been induced to form bone, cartilage, adipose tissue, tendon, and muscle, and in their undifferentiated state, resemble roughly stromal fibroblasts and can support hematopoiesis as evidenced by the support of LT-CIC in long term bone marrow culture. Preliminary in vivo studies suggest that these cells home to bone marrow of post-natal recipients after intravenous administration and can accelerate constitution after myeloablative conditioning regimes.

At 2 and 5 months after in utero transplantation, human cells were detected in the cardiac muscle of fetuses transplanted at 65 and 85 days gestation. These cells had similar morphology to the surrounding ovine cardiomyocytes and also double-stained with human ⁇ -2 microglobulin and SERCA-2, consistent with human cardiomyocyte differentiation ( Figures 7B and 7C).
  • Chondrocyte differentiation was identified by the finding of human ⁇ -2 microglobulin positive cells in cartilage lacunae of lambs transplanted at 65 days and harvested at 2 months or 5 months after transplantation. Immunohistochemistry was performed using a nickel chloride-based developing technique giving the particulate appearance observed ( Figures 8A and 8B). The immunohistochemical identification of human cells within the lacunae of cartilage specimens that were DNA PCR positive for human ⁇ -2 microglobulin sequences represents clear evidence of human chondrocyte differentiation.
  • Bone Marrow Stromal Differentiation To assess differentiation of human MSCs found in the bone marrow immunohistochemistry was performed using a human specific anti-CD23 antibody (Pharmingen, San Diego, CA, mouse IgGi, Clone M-L233).
  • CD23 is the low affinity IgE receptor and has been shown to be expressed on a variety of cell types including bone marrow stromal cells (Huang, et al, Blood, Vol. 85, pgs. 3704-3712 (1995); Fourcade, et al., European Cytokine Network, Vol. 3, pgs. 539-543 (1992)).
  • tail wounds were created in five 65 day gestation fetal sheep at the time of MSC injection. One animal was sacrificed at one week and four animals at 2 months. Human ⁇ -2 microglobulin DNA was detected by PCR in the one tail wound at 1 week and in one of four tail wounds at 2 months. The PCR results were verified by human ⁇ -2 microglobulin immunihistochemistry (data not shown). The cells expressing human ⁇ -2 microglobulin in the tail wound appeared in the dermis and dermal appendages and had the morphologic appearance of fibroblasts consistent with participation in the wound healing response.
  • Mesenchymal stem cells are of increasing interest to the emerging fields of tissue engineering, cellular transplantation, and gene therapy because of their availability in bone marrow, their relative ease of expansion in culture, their amenability to genetic manipulation, and most importantly, their capacity for differentiation into multiple mesenchymal tissues. These properties support potential clinical applications of: 1) large scale tissue engineering particularly for repair of musculoskeletal injury; 2) cellular therapy for diseases of mesenchymal origin such as muscular dystrophy, osteoporosis, osteogenesis imperfecta, and collagen disorders; 3) bone marrow conditioning to facilitate engraftment of autologous or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cells; and 4) gene therapy. Prenatal MSC transplantation may provide a "reservoir" of normal stem cells to replace defective cells as they become damaged in degenerative diseases with progressive cellular and organ damage.
  • mice There have been two studies in mice in which cultured mouse adherent cell populations have been transplanted and documented to persist following transplantation.
  • cells from transgenic mice expressing a human mini-gene for collagen I were used as mesenchymal progenitor donors and the fate of the cells followed after transplantation into irradiated mice (Pereira, et al., Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci., Vol. 92, pgs. 4857-4861 (1995)).
  • Donor cells were detected in bone marrow, spleen, bone cartilage, and lung up to 5 months later by PCR for the human mini-gene, and a PCR in situ assay on lung indicated that the donor cells diffusely populated the parenchyma.
  • Reverse transcription-PCR assays indicated that the marker collagen I gene was expressed in a tissue-specific manner.
  • a second study transplanted either cultured adherent cells or whole bone marrow into irradiated mice with a phenotype of fragile bones resembling osteogenesis imperfecta caused by expression of the human minigene for type I collagen (Pereira, et al., Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci., Vol. 95, pgs. 1142-1147 (1998)).
  • fluorescense in situ hybridization assays for the Y chromosome indicated that, after 2.5 months, donor male cells accounted for 4-19% of the fibroblasts or fibroblast- like cells obtained in primary cultures of the lung, calvaria, cartilage, long bone, tail, and skin.
  • MSCs although very large cells, can be transplanted, and are capable of homing to and engrafting in multiple tissues, even when transplanted into the fetal peritoneal cavity. This requires the transplanted MSC to cross endothelial barriers, integrate into host tissue microenvironments, and survive with available growth factors and regulatory signals.
  • This may be a function of the ability of specific microenvironments to support the engraftment and differentiation of MSCs, or alternatively, the loss of engraftment from some tissues may be due to heterogeneity, of me transplanted population with respect to differentiation potential or replicative capacity. Immune mediated rejection is less likely since the pattern of engraftment was not limited to immune privileged sites, and an immune mechanism should result in eradication of donor cells.
  • MSCs are capable of site specific, multipotential differentiation and tissue integration following transplantation.
  • Human MSCs have been shown in vitro to differentiate into adipocytic, chondrocytic, or osteocytic lineages (Pittenger, supra). Less well characterized MSC populations from other species have been induced in vitro toward myocytic differentiation.
  • This study confirms in vivo chondrocytic differentiation and for the first time clearly demonstrates in vivo cardiomyocytic and myocytic differentiation of a defined human MSC population.
  • MSCs derived from bone marrow from multiple species have been demonstrated to support hematopoiesis with equal or greater efficacy than stromal layers formed in long term Dexter cultures.
  • CD23 has been identified as a low affinity IgE receptor as well as a functional CD21 ligand (Huang, et al., 1995; Aubry, et al., Cell, Vol.
  • Human MSCs are known to express Class I HLA antigen but do not express Class II, which may limit immune recognition.
  • thymic stromal cells are known to participate in thymocyte positive and negative selection and host thymic antigen presenting cells are capable of facilitating clonal deletion of donor reactive lymphocytes after in utero HSC transplantation (Kim, et al., J. Pediatr. Surg., Vol. 34, pgs.
