| Popis: | Canine stem cell transplantation models have provided important preclinical information for human clinical studies. The recent cloning of cDNA for canine CD34 and the production of monoclonal antibodies that recognize canine CD34 have been the basis for the development of techniques for the large-scale enrichment of canine hematopoietic progenitor cells. In this study, we evaluated the in vivo functional properties of canine bone marrow CD34+ cells after a myeloablative conditioning regimen.After 920 cGy total body irradiation, three dogs received infusion of autologous CD34+ selected cells from the marrow, three dogs CD34+ depleted autologous marrow cells, and two dogs received CD34+ autologous marrow cells that were immunomagnetically selected and then further purified by cell sorting. In addition, four dogs received allogeneic marrow enriched for CD34+ cells from dog leukocyte antigen-identical littermates to investigate long-term repopulating function of CD34+ cells. Chimerism studies were performed using polymerase chain reaction to detect highly polymorphic microsatellite markers.In three recipients of autologous marrow enriched for CD34+ cells to between 29% and 70% (1.6 x 10(6) to 3.4x10(6) CD34+ cells/kg), prompt and full hematopoietic recovery occurred, whereas in three dogs that received marrow depleted of CD34+ cells (1 x 10(7) cells/kg), no hematopoietic recovery was achieved. In two dogs that received highly purified CD34+ cells (purity: 98% and 96%, 0.79x10(6) to 0.547x 10(6) CD34+ cells/kg), delayed but full hematopoietic recovery was seen. Three of four allograft recipients of 1.75x10(6) to 6.8x10(6) CD34+ cells/kg engrafted and showed full hematopoietic recovery, whereas one dog rejected the graft. The three long-term survivors showed stable mixed hematopoietic chimerism with predominantly donor hematopoiesis.Transplantation of canine CD34+ cells after lethal total body irradiation provides radioprotection and gives rise to long-term hematopoietic reconstitution. Stable donor/host mixed chimerism was observed in allograft recipients most likely as a result of T-cell depletion of the grafts. Our findings suggest a future role for canine preclinical transplant studies involving in vitro manipulation of hematopoietic pro. |
