Definitions
- the present subject matter relates to an efficient method for collecting placenta cord blood stem cells and methods for using the collected stem cells.
- the present subject matter relates to stem cell collection from the placenta detailing a new method which is clinically feasible, convenient, and highly efficient.
- the present subject matter describes a new finding that residual placenta cord blood cells gathered by machine pulsatile perfusion are more enriched with primitive hematopoietic stem cell phenotypes compared to those from conventional needle/syringe withdrawal or gravity drainage collection and allows cord blood cells to be used for regenerative medicine purposes.
- Increased stem cell numbers obtained from a single placenta using the described method can also improve allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant outcomes and obviate the use of double or triple cord blood grafts from different donors in order to compensate for insufficient stem cells from a single donor graft.
- Umbilical CB cells are a promising source of HSC to perform allogeneic HSC transplantation for hematological malignancies and bone marrow failure syndrome (Kurtzberg er a/., 1996; Wagner et al., 1996; Gluckman et ai, 1997; Rubinstein et al., 1998). Significant advantages include a rapid access. to CB cells which are stored in CB banks nationwide and acceptance of 1-2 human leukocyte antigen mismatch grafts due to infrequent severe graft versus host disease (GVHD) compared to the matched unrelated donor grafts (Barker et al., 2002).
- GVHD severe graft versus host disease
- CB cells enable patients to choose allogeneic transplant as a curative option for hematological malignancies where otherwise no suitable match donors are available, particularly among patients in minority groups.
- CB transplant using low levels of total nucleated cell counts leads to significant delays in post-transplant engraftment of neutrophils and platelets or engraftment failures (Wagner et al., 2002; Laughlin et al., 2004).
- Known procedures for harvesting CB include draining the blood by gravity from the delivered placenta, and draining the blood by venipuncture into collection bags or syringes.
- CB bank donor pool To expand the future CB bank donor pool, it is important to investigate improved CB harvesting methods including how to collect the residual CB cells that are left after conventional CB harvesting (Harris et a/., 1994). More importantly, availability of an increased amount of CB cells from the same placenta may allow storing an amount of CB cells sufficient for multiple uses including back up or graft engineering such as an ex vivo expansion and adoptive immunotherapy.
- Totipotent stem cells are capable of forming every type of body cell, and these cells are within the early embryo and are the so called human ES cells.
- Pluripotent stem cells are capable of developing into endoderm, mesoderm, or ectoderm. Tissue specific stem cells are committed to make certain tissues only.
- hematopoietic stem cells HSC are responsible for all types of blood cells but no other tissue types and their continued presence in an adult allows for a repair capability.
- HSC hematopoietic stem cells
- investigators have found that cells like adult HSC which were considered to be responsible for production of different types of hematopoietic progenitor cells even gave rise to cells of different tissue or organ such as neural cells or muscle cells.
- CB derived stem cells have further advantages compared to the other sources since they are collected from the placenta which is normally discarded, thus requiring no tissue damage to the host upon harvesting the cells.
- CB has primitive ontogeny with na ⁇ ve immune status and relatively unshortened telomere length.
- CB has been shown to contain a heterogeneous cell population and recognized as a source of pluripotent stem cells (Goodwin et ai, 2001; Sanchez-Ramos et ai, 2001; Bicknese et ai, 2002; Sanchez-Ramos, 2002; Zigova et ai, 2002)
- adherent cell population isolated from a week long suspension culture of CB cells after lineage positive cell depletion were shown to express immunohistochemical evidence of ectodermal and endodermal features (McGuckin et ai, 2004).
- CB stem cells may be from a recently published emerging concept that the gestational placenta may be a hematopoietic niche during embryo development (Gekas et ai, 2005; Ottersbach and Dzierzak, 2005). It is a simple assumption that a full-term placenta may also contain remnant primitive stem cells adherent to the vascular niche, or possibly due to the stress associated with "birth", there may be an increased number of circulating stem cells that are released from fetal BM or liver which have migrated to the placenta niche.
- placenta derived CB cells obtained by this innovation may contain more primitive stem cells (ES cell-like cells) left as remnant stem cells deposited in a placenta vascular bed niche since embryogenesis. Isolation and selection of primitive CB cells including ES cell-like cells and primitive HSC
- CD133+ marker demonstrated a high proliferation potential on growth factor stimulation (Forraz et at., 2004).
- CD133+/CD34- subset might represent more primitive stem cells as they did not produce colony forming cells (CFC) in methylcellulose, but exhibited the highest SCID repopulating cells frequency (Kuci et al. t 2003).
- Embryonic stem cell markers such as stage-specific embryonic antigen (SSEA)-3, SSEA-4, TRA-1-60, and TRA-1- 81 are expressed only on ES cells which have been widely used in the characterization of pluripotent stem cell and antibodies compatible to FACS analysis (which are commercially available).
- SSEA stage-specific embryonic antigen
- VSEL very small embryonic-like stem cells
- Lin-/CD45-/CXCR4+/CD133+/CD34+ phenotype Lin-/CD45-/CXCR4+/CD133+/CD34+ phenotype
- the method using the presence of general metabolic markers has also been used to identify and isolate stem cells.
- One of the metabolic markers that has been described is aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) (Takebe et al., 2001).
- ALDH aldehyde dehydrogenase
- the fluorescent substrate of ALDH, Aldefluor (StemCell) has been used to demonstrate increased ALDH activity in neural stem cells (Cai et al., 2004b; Corti et al., 2006) and HSC (Storms et al., 1999).
- This nontoxic, live labeling method can be used to identify other stem cell populations as well (Cai et al., 2004a).
- Rhodamine uptake and Hoechst dye labeling has been used to select stem celt populations from BM, CB, mesenchymal, muscle, and adult brain (Kim et al., 2002; Bhattacharya et al., 2003; Migishima et al., 2003; Parmar et al., 2003).
- the side population (SP) which is demonstrated by low uptake of Hoechst dye 33342 represents the highest capability of self-renewing and pluripotency.
- Hoechst dye uptake is regulated by a membrane transporter ABCG2 and the SP population is defined as the expression of ABCG2 protein (Zhou et al., 2001; Scharenberg ef al., 2002). ABCG2 protein is also expressed specifically in neural stem cells and decreases in expression when precursor cells differentiate (Cai et al. , 2002).
- BM stroma derived progenitors differentiating into neural cells since these cells were first reported to show differentiation into muscle, glia, and hepatocytes in mouse (Azizi et al., 1998; Ferrari et al., 1998; Petersen et al., 1999).
- neuron specific proteins inductions such as nestin, neuron-specific nuclear protein (NeuN), and glial acidic fibrillary protein (GFAP) in cells derived from human and rodent BM stromal cells were reported after stimulation with retinoic acid, epidermal growth factor (EGF), or brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) (Sanchez-Ramos et ai, 2000).
- CB mononuclear cells including separated CD133+ cells were induced to express neuronal and glial markers in vitro such as beta-tublin II), GFAP after exposure to basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and hEGF, and also Musashi-1 after retinoic acid and nerve growth factor (NGF) exposure (Sanchez-Ramos et ai, 2001; Bicknese et a/., 2002).
- hepatocytes were thought to be transformed from infused BM cells in a mouse model (Lagasse et ai, 2000), but it was found to be caused by cell fusion in that particular liver regeneration model (Wang et ai, 2003b). Others also found that myelomonocytic cells from BM HSC source were the major source of hepatocyte fusion partners (Camargo er a/., 2004). CB cells isolated from a lineage positive cell depletion procedure followed by a week of suspension culture formed an adherent cell population which were found to express markers for hepatic cells after further incubation with hepatocyte growth medium (McGuckin er a/., 2005).
- the placental perfusion may be performed by pulsatile machine placental perfusion (PMPP).
- PMPP can be combined with either completion of a conventional collection method, usually venipuncture (aspiration of umbilical cord vasculature with a needle and syringe) or gravity drainage, or no prior collection.
- PMPP can be performed with an anticoagulant containing organ perfusion solution to flush the cord blood cells out and subsequently collect the resulting stem cell containing perfusate. This method does not require any preparation or injection of anticoagulants into the placenta post delivery to prevent clotting.
- the isolated placenta can be cooled, for example, by placing on ice, prior to perfusion. If perfusion is performed within one hour of placental isolation, the placenta need not be cooled prior to perfusion. The presently described method may still be performed if the placenta is prepared or injected with an anticoagulant prior to performing perfusion. If cord blood cells are first collected using conventional methods, the residual cord blood cells obtained with PMPP can be added to this initial collection. The PMPP obtained cord blood cells can also be stored as back up cells or stored for future cell graft engineering and regenerative medicine purposes. The convenience of not needing immediate removal of cord blood stem cells from the placenta and the ability to ship it directly on ice only without any further preparations to a central facility makes this method potentially attractive to be incorporated into the currently established cord blood cell banking system.
