Ex Vivo Expansion of Haematopoietic Stem Cells to Improve Engraftment in Stem Cell Transplantation

Abstract: The efficient use of haematopoietic stem cells (HSC) for transplantation is often limited by the relatively low numbers of HSC collected. The ex vivo expansion of HSC for clinical use is a potentially valuable and safe approach to increase HSC numbers thereby increasing engraftment and reducing the risk of morbidity from infection. Here we describe a protocol for the robust ex vivo expansion of human CD34(+) HSC isolated from umbilical cord blood. The protocol described can efficiently generate large numbers o… Show more

“…One of the major weaknesses of this trial was its reliance on the expansion of just a fraction (40-60%) of a single CB unit. Given that the success of stem cell transplantation is largely dictated by the cell dose [150], there was little chance for hematological improvements. Nonetheless, this early trial, and others, demonstrated the safety of such an approach [151,152 ].…”

“…Furthermore, BMSCs transplantation alleviated clinical signs, infiltration of inflammatory cells and demyelination of EAE mice, and down-regulated the expression levels of pro-inflammatory factors TNF-α, IL-1β and IFN-γ, while increasing the expression level of anti-inflammatory factors IL-10 and TGF-β. Although stem cell transplantation is advanced, the success rate of stem cell transplantation is relatively low [ 44 ]. Some studies have evaluated the effect of stem cell transplantation on the clinical treatment of MS [ 45 – 47 ].…”
