Abstract:
The study was aimed to investigate the strategy of transfusion of allogeneic hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HS/PC) into marrow cavity of mouse model in sensitized transplantation. A sensitized BALB/c mouse model was established by repeated transfusion of allogeneic spleen cells. The normal BALB/c mice were used as non-sensitized controls. The non-sensitized or sensitized recipients were transplanted by transfusion of allogeneic HS/PCs into bone marrow cavity. The survival rate and hematopoietic recovery were monitored. Moreover, non-sensitized and sensitized sera were obtained and incubated with allogeneic HS/PC respectively, the percentage of dead cells was calculated using complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) tests. The results showed that non-sensitized recipients got long-term survival after the transfusion of HS/PC into marrow cavity, and the hematopoietic recovery increased along with time. However, among the sensitized recipients, one mouse died of anesthetic accident, the other 9 mice (9/10) died within 2 weeks after the transfusion of HS/PC in marrow cavity, and the hematopoietic recovery declined along with time. Histopathologic analysis demonstrated that the sensitized recipients died of bone marrow failure. The results of CDC tests showed that the percentage of dead cells in non-sensitized and sensitized group was 7.80 ± 1.93% and 50.80 ± 3.12%, respectively, and the differences were statistically significant (p < 0.05), indicating sensitized sera were capable of impairing allogeneic HS/PC. It is concluded that the strategy of the marrow cavity transfusion of HS/PC can not enhance engraftment of allogeneic donor cells in sensitized recipients.
