The morphological and biochemical consequences of transplanting affected bone marrow from donor BALB/c mice with a lysosomal storage disorder (BALB/c LSD) into normal recipient mice were studied. Bone marrow was removed from normal BALB/c and BALB/c LSD mice and transfused into normal BALB/c recipient mice four hours after the mice received 850 rads of irradiation. Tissues of the recipient mice were examined 240 days later. This study revealed that the defective cells that constituted the visceral lesions of BALB/c LSD could be transplanted to normal BALB/c mice by the use of bone marrow from affected BALB/c LSD homozygote; that the defective cells of BALB/c LSD proliferated and disseminated throughout the mononuclear phagocytic system of the recipient; that there were increases in cholesterol, sphingolipids, and cystine with decreases in sphingomyelinase and glucocerebrosidase activity in tissues of the recipients; and that the recipients survived substantially longer than BALB/c LSD homozygotes and their lifespan was compromised mainly by the secondary effects of irradiation. These lesions, although not as extensive as in homozygous BALB/c LSD, paralleled the lesions which develop in BALB/c LSD. Since the recipient mice were not compromised by the short life span (70 days) of the BALB/c LSD mice, they may be used to study the long-term chronic effects of these metabolic lesions. |
