Abstract:Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are ideal targets for genetic manipulation in the treatment of several congenital and acquired disorders affecting the hematopoietic compartment. Although G-CSF-mobilized peripheral blood CD34(+) cells are the favored source of hematopoietic stem cells in clinical transplantation, this source of stem cells does not provide meaningful engraftment levels of genetically modified cells compared with G-CSF + stem cell factor (SCF)-mobilized cells in nonhuman primates. Furthermore, the use of G-CSF mobilization can have disastrous consequences in patients with sickle cell disease, a long-held target disorder for HSC-based gene therapy approaches. We therefore conducted a study to compare the levels of genetically modified cells attainable after retroviral transduction of CD34(+) cells collected from a bone marrow (BM) harvest with CD34(+) cells collected from a leukapheresis product after mobilization with G-CSF (n = 3) or G-CSF in combination with SCF (n = 3) in the rhesus macaque autologous transplantation model. Transductions were performed using retroviral vector supernatant on fibronectin-coated plates for 96 hours in the presence of stimulatory cytokines. BM was equal to or better than G-CSF-mobilized peripheral blood as a source of HSCs for retroviral transduction. Although the highest marking observed was derived from G-SCF + SCF-mobilized peripheral blood in two animals, marking in the third originated only from the BM fraction. These results demonstrate that steady-state BM is at least equivalent to G-CSF-mobilized peripheral blood as a source of HSCs for retroviral gene transfer and the only currently available source for patients with sickle cell disease.
