    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of human umbilical blood (UB) mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) on the CD34(+) cells transplantation in NOD/SCID Mice. METHODS: Umbilical blood CD34(+) cells (3.5 x 10(5) cells) alone or combined with umbilical cord MSC cells were transplanted into NOD/SCID mice that had been irradiated with (137)Cs (3.0 Gy) before transplantation. Changes in peripheral blood cells within 6 post-transplantation weeks were detected. The mice were sacrificed 6 weeks after transplantation. The human hematopoietic cells (hCD45(+)) and multi-lineage engraftment cells (CD3/CD19, CD33, CD14, CD61, and CD235a) in NOD/SCID recipients bone marrow, spleen, and peripheral blood were analyzed by flow cytometry. RESULTS: In the 3rd post-transplantation week, white blood cells (WBC), platelets (PLT), and red blood cells (RBC) began to increase in both two groups. In the 6th post-transplantation week, WBC and PLT counts in CD34(+) + MSC group reached peak levels and were significantly higher than CD34(+) alone group (P < 0.05), while RBC level was not significantly different between these two groups P > 0.05). hCD45(+) cell levels in bone marrow and peripheral blood were (42.66 +/- 2.57) % and (4.74 +/- 1.02) % in CD34(+) + MSC group, which were significantly higher than those in CD34(+) alone group [(25.27 +/- 1.67) % and (1.19 +/- 0.54) %, respectively, P = 0.006]. Also in the 6th post-transplantation week, the proportions of CD19(+), CD33(+), CD14(+), CD61(+), and CD235a(+) in CD34(+) + MSC group were significantly higher than those in CD34(+) alone group (P < 0.05), while the proportion of CD3(+) T lymphocyte in CD34(+) + MSC group was significantly lower than that in CD34(+) alone group (P = 0.003). The amplification of CD19(+) B lymphocyte was significantly higher than other blood cell lineages (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The co-transplantation of MSC cells and CD34(+) cells can promote hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and hematopoietic recovery in vivo.
