Representative STEMvision™ Images Showing Colonies Derived from CB Progenitors after 7 Days of Culture in MethoCult™ Express, and from CB, BM and MPB after 14 Days of Culture in MethoCult™ Optimum

Figure 1. Representative STEMvision™ Images Showing Colonies Derived from CB Progenitors after 7 Days of Culture in MethoCult™ Express, and from CB, BM and MPB after 14 Days of Culture in MethoCult™ Optimum

These images have been analyzed by STEMvision™ Human (A) 7-Day and (B-D) 14-Day Analysis Packages. Green circles identify individual colonies in a 7-day CB CFU assay that scores total CFUs only (A). Orange and red circles identify erythroid colonies, yellow circles identify myeloid colonies and blue circles identify mixed colonies in 14-day CB (B), BM (C) and MPB (D) CFU assays. Erythroid and mixed colonies that contain hemoglobinized cells are shown in true red color.

Figure 2. STEMvision™ Automated Counting of Total, Erythroid (BFU-E) and Myeloid (CFU-G/M/GM) Colonies Is Highly Correlated to Manual Counts of 14-Day CB CFU Assays

Cryopreserved CB cells were thawed, plated in MethoCult™ Optimum and cultured for 14 days. The resulting colonies were then counted both manually using an inverted microscope, and automatically using STEMvision™ with the Human CB 14-Day CFU Analysis Package (Catalog #22005). Gray dashed lines represent a perfect linear correlation between manual and automated counts. Red solid lines represent the actual linear correlation between manual and automated counts. The mathematical equations and correlation coefficients (R2) that describe each data set (n=130 CFU assays) are as follows: A: y=1.02x + 1.39, R2=0.96 for Total Colonies, B: y=1.05x + 1.53, R2=0.89 for BFU-E, C: y=0.99x + 0.13, R2=0.94 for CFU-G/M/GM.

Thirty individual 14-day CB CFU assays were counted by three to seven people. The numbers of mixed colonies (CFU-GEMM) colonies counted manually in each well are shown by the black open circles (n=80 total assay scores). Manual CFU-GEMM counts in most cultures varied significantly between individual people. STEMvision™ counts of the same cultures (red circles) provided a CFU-GEMM count that was typically within the range of manual counts.

The NAD-Booster Nicotinamide Riboside Potently Stimulates Hematopoiesis through Increased Mitochondrial Clearance. N. Vannini et al. Cell stem cell 2019 mar

Abstract

It has been recently shown that increased oxidative phosphorylation, as reflected by increased mitochondrial activity, together with impairment of the mitochondrial stress response, can severely compromise hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) regeneration. Here we show that the NAD+-boosting agent nicotinamide riboside (NR) reduces mitochondrial activity within HSCs through increased mitochondrial clearance, leading to increased asymmetric HSC divisions. NR dietary supplementation results in a significantly enlarged pool of progenitors, without concurrent HSC exhaustion, improves survival by 80{\%}, and accelerates blood recovery after murine lethal irradiation and limiting-HSC transplantation. In immune-deficient mice, NR increased the production of human leucocytes from hCD34+ progenitors. Our work demonstrates for the first time a positive effect of NAD+-boosting strategies on the most primitive blood stem cells, establishing a link between HSC mitochondrial stress, mitophagy, and stem-cell fate decision, and unveiling the potential of NR to improve recovery of patients suffering from hematological failure including post chemo- and radiotherapy.

Validation of a semi automatic device to standardize quantification of Colony-Forming Unit (CFU) on hematopoietic stem cell products. M. Velier et al. Cytotherapy 2019 jun

Abstract

Accurate characterization of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) products is needed to better anticipate the hematopoietic reconstitution and the outcome in patients. Although CD34+ viable cells enumeration is a key predictor of time to correction of aplasia, it does not fully inform about functionality of cells contained in the graft. CFU assay is the gold standard in vitro potency assay to assess clonogenicity of HSC and consists on the count and identification of colonies several days after culture in a semi solid media. Manual count of colonies with optic microscope is the most commonly used method but its important variability and subjectivity hinders the universal implementation of this potency assay. The aim of this study is to validate a standardized method using the STEMvision™ system, the first semi-automated instrument for imaging and scoring hematopoietic colonies, according to French and European recommendations. Results obtained highlight better performance criteria with STEMvision™ system than the manual method. This semi-automatic device tends to reduce the coefficients of variation of repeatability, inter-operator variability and intermediate precision. This newly available platform could represent an interesting option, significantly improving performances of CFU assays used for the characterization of hematopoietic progenitors.

TRIAMF: A New Method for Delivery of Cas9 Ribonucleoprotein Complex to Human Hematopoietic Stem Cells. J. Yen et al. Scientific reports 2018 NOV

Abstract

CRISPR/Cas9 mediated gene editing of patient-derived hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) ex vivo followed by autologous transplantation of the edited HSPCs back to the patient can provide a potential cure for monogenic blood disorders such as $\beta$-hemoglobinopathies. One challenge for this strategy is efficient delivery of the ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex, consisting of purified Cas9 protein and guide RNA, into HSPCs. Because $\beta$-hemoglobinopathies are most prevalent in developing countries, it is desirable to have a reliable, efficient, easy-to-use and cost effective delivery method. With this goal in mind, we developed TRansmembrane Internalization Assisted by Membrane Filtration (TRIAMF), a new method to quickly and effectively deliver RNPs into HSPCs by passing a RNP and cell mixture through a filter membrane. We achieved robust gene editing in HSPCs using TRIAMF and demonstrated that the multilineage colony forming capacities and the competence for engraftment in immunocompromised mice of HSPCs were preserved post TRIAMF treatment. TRIAMF is a custom designed system using inexpensive components and has the capacity to process HSPCs at clinical scale.
