Abstract:
.....We here isolated cell complexes based on size fractionation from mouse bone marrow (BM), characterized the derived cells, and transplanted them to irradiated mice. These cell complexes were the origin of both BM mesenchymal stem cells and various hematopoietic lineages when kept in appropriate culture conditions. They also had the potential of recruiting circulating HSC. Intraperitoneal transplantation of these structures into irradiated mice not only showed long-lasting hematopoietic multi-lineage reconstitution, but also could recover the stromal cells of BM. In conclusion, this study for the first time provides evidences on the feasibility and efficacy of transplantation of HSC in association with their native specialized microenvironment. As the molecular cross-talk between HSC and niche is crucial for their proper function, the proposed method could be considered as a novel hematopoietic transplantation strategy.
