两步法从脐血CD34+细胞获得大量树突细胞的初步研究

目的　探索利用先扩增后诱导的“两步法”从脐血 (CB)CD34 细胞高效大量地获得树突细胞 (DC)。方法　免疫磁珠法从CB分选获得CD34 细胞 ,以干细胞因子 (SCF)、IL 3、Flt 3配体 (FL)、Tpo组合刺激 ,扩增 7d、10d和 14d(依次为Ⅰ、Ⅱ和Ⅲ组 )后以GM CSF IL 4 TNF α诱导 8d或 5d获得DC ,通过相差显微镜、电镜观察形态 ,流式细胞仪检测表型 ,混合淋巴细胞培养、ELISA法检测培养液上清IL 12含量评价其功能。结果　CBCD34 细胞经SCF IL 3 FL Tpo刺激扩增 7d、10d和 14d后细胞总数分别扩增了 (5 3.39± 2 0 .5 9)倍、(30 7.17± 119.5 9)倍和 (1117.2 5± 335 .4 9)倍。经GM CSF IL 4 TNF α诱导 8d后所得CD1a 细胞是扩增前细胞数的 (2 1.4 0± 16 .70 )倍、(14 3.2 0± 6 0 .35 )倍和(15 0 .80± 4 2 .16 )倍 ,Ⅱ、Ⅲ组明显多于Ⅰ组 (P <0 .0 5 ) ,但Ⅱ、Ⅲ组间无显著性差异 (P >0 .0 5 )。所得DC的形态、表型及刺激异基因T细胞增殖能力、IL 12分泌量 ,三组无显著性差异 (P >0 .0 5 )。当诱导时间缩短至 5d时 ,各组DC功能均显著下降 (P <0 .0 5 )。结论　CBCD34 细胞扩增 7～ 10d再诱导 8d可以高效大量获得具有正常功能的DC ,而扩增时间超过 10d并不能显著增加DC产量 ,诱导时间少于8d将降低所得DC

Preliminary study on extensive amplification of human dendritic cells differentiated from cord blood CD34+ progenitor cells by two-step culture

OBJECTIVE: To Explore a two-step culture system to generate a large number of dendritic cells (DC) differentiated from cord blood (CB) CD(34)(+) cells. METHODS: Enriched CB CD(34)(+) cells with immunoadsorption were primarily cultured in the presence of stem cell factor (SCF), Flt-3 ligand (FL), thrombopoietin (Tpo) and interleukin-3 (IL-3) for 7 (group I), 10 (group II) or 14 days (group III) respectively, and then further cultured with GM-CSF, IL-4 and TNF-alpha for 5 - 8 days to induce DC. The expansion and cell function were evaluated by flow cytometry (FCM) and mix-lymphocyte reaction (MLR), and detection of IL-12 in the supernatant by using ELISA. RESULTS: The total nucleated cells with 53.39 +/- 20.59-, 307.17 +/- 119.59- and 1117.25 +/- 335.49-folds expansion could be respectively obtained after 7 - 14 days of expansion culture. After DC induction, CD(1a)(+) cells were 21.40 +/- 16.70-, 143.2 +/- 60.35- and 150.8 +/- 42.16-fold increase as compared to the initial nucleated cells. Comparing with that in group I, the CD(1a)(+) cells were much more in groups II and III; but there was no difference between the latter two groups (P > 0.05). The cultured cells in the three groups showed almost the same allo-stimulatory capability and IL-12 excretion when the second culture duration maintained 8 days, while the capability and excretion were greatly decreased when the duration shortened to 5 days (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: A plenty of functionally mature DC could be obtained from the CD(34)(+) cells in the two-step culture system of 7 - 10 days HSC expansion followed by 8 days DC induction.
