Definitions

  • the present invention relates to compounds and compositions for expanding the number of CD34+ cells for transplantation.
  • the invention further relates to a cell population comprising expanded hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and its use in autologous or allogeneic transplantation for the treatment of patients with inherited immunodeficient and autoimmune diseases and diverse hematopoietic disorders to reconstitute the hematopoietic cell lineages and immune system defense.
  • HSCs expanded hematopoietic stem cells
  • Hematopoietic stem cells are capable of regenerating all blood products throughout the life of an individual, balancing their self -renewal with progeny differentiation. Hematopoietic stem cells have therapeutic potential as a result of their capacity to restore blood and immune cells in transplant recipients. Furthermore, HSCs have the potential to generate cells for other tissues such as brain, muscle and liver. Human autologous and allogeneic bone marrow transplantation methods are currently used as therapies for leukemia, lymphoma, and other life-threatening diseases. For these procedures, a large number of stem cells must be isolated to ensure that there are enough HSCs for engraftment. The number of HSCs available for treatment is a clinical limitation. [0004] The present invention relates to compounds and compositions for expanding hematopoietic stem cell populations and uses thereof.

  • HSCs are primitive cells capable of regenerating all blood cells. During development, hematopoiesis translocates from the fetal liver to the bone marrow, which then remains the site of hematopoiesis throughout adulthood. Once hematopoiesis has been established in the bone marrow, the HSCs are not distributed randomly throughout the bone cavity. Instead, they are found in close proximity to the endosteal surfaces. The more mature stem cells increase in number as the distance from the bone surface increases. Finally, as the central longitudinal axis of the bone is approached terminal differentiation of mature cells occurs.

Titration of Example 1 revealed an EC 50 of 127nM, demonstrating that Example 1 is a potent AHR antagonist.
  • Example 1 only weakly inhibited dioxin induced transcription in murine cells and had no activity on rat cells, suggesting that Example 1 preferentially inhibits human AHR. This correlates with a lack of activity of Example 1 on murine HSC, and can explain the species selectivity of Example 1. Finally, Example 1 had only weak agonist activity on murine or rat cells, and failed to induce AHR dependent transcription in human cells.
  • Example 1 induced HSC expansion human CB-derived CD34 + HSCs were treated with lentiviral particles containing a shRNA-targeting AHR that co-expressed GFP or control virus. Forty-eight hours following transduction, CD34 + GFP + cells were purified by cell sorting and the levels of AHR were determined by qPCR. Both AHR targeting shRNAs led to decreases in AHR expression following transduction (81% with shl l l and 51% with sh242). These decreases were not seen in cells lacking GFP or in cells transduced with control virus. CB-derived CD34 + cells with decreased AHR expression displayed a phenotype similar to Example 1 treated cells with sustained expression of CD34 + . These data show that inhibition of AHR activity by a compound of the invention is sufficient to promote ex- vivo expansion of HSC.
