Introduction of an effective therapeutic into this cell population would ensure a one-time gene therapy in recipient patients.
  • the expression of a therapeutic gene in the CD34+ population does not necessarily mean that the therapeutic is in the stem cell. Although the expression of a therapeutic would be useful in the mature cells in the blood, the life-span of these mature cells is finite.

  • the present invention further relates to a method of treating patients exposed to radiation to reduce recovery time.
  • Radiation is currently used to treat different forms of cancer including leukemia and to treat patients undergoing bone marrow transplantations.

This is the time when the patient is most susceptible to either rejection (host versus graft disease) or opportunistic infections (due to an incompetent immune system) .
  • Cytokine therapy has shown promise when used during the period of time between whole body irradiation and growth/ differentiation of the new cells, suggesting that the establishment of a functional stromal layer is essential to supply the cytokines needed to allow stem and progenitor cell growth.
  • the "newly" introduced bone marrow cells will, in time, establish their own stromal layer; however, the introduction of a stromal cell line expanded in vi tro and introduced with the "new" marrow may reduce this window of uncertainty.

Ce procédé consiste à administrer, à des souris irradiées, des cellules du stroma de moelle osseuse d'origine humaine ou provenant de primates qui expriment des cytokines assurant la croissance des cellules, telles que des cellules CD34+, et à administer, de manière séquentielle ou simultanée des cellules CD34+ purifiées d'origine humaine ou provenant de primates. On peut administer les cellules du stroma et les cellules CD34+ par injections intraveineuses ou intrapéritonéales. Cette invention peut servir à évaluer des protocoles de thérapie génique pour les cellules CD34+ humaines et peut également avoir des applications relatives au traitement de patients soumis à une irradiation comme cela se produit lors d'une greffe de moelle osseuse.
