Abstract:
Objective:To compare the seeding efficiency and graft versus host disease (GVHD) of severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) mice transplanted with human hematopoietic cells intraperitoneally (ip) and intravenously (iv) and to explore the method to set up psoriatic animal model by xenogeneic bone marrow transplantation.Methods:Normal human bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMMNC) were separated by density gradient centrifugation and BMMNC (4?10~7) were injected into lethally irradiated SCID mice by ip or iv injection. GVHD symptom and periphery blood white blood cell resuming dynamics in mice were observed after xenotransplantation and flow cytometry was performed to detect human source CD45~+ cells proportion in periphery blood and bone marrow of mice.Results:The mice transplanted by tail intravenous injection presented obvious GVHD symptoms promptly 2 weeks after transplanting and only one mouse survived in 12 weeks. Among the mice received tail intravenous injection and dealed with cydosporin(CsA) and methotrexate(MTX),some of the mice showed slight GVHD symptom and survival rate was 80%(8/10) in 12 weeks. Slight GVHD symptoms appeared after human bone marrow transplantation by intraperitoneal injection and then most of mice returned to the normal and the survival rate was 70%(7/10) in 12 weeks. The periphery blood white blood cells resuming dynamics, CD45~+ cell proportion of periphery blood and bone marrow after transplantation show no significant difference between the groups transplanted by intravenous and intraperitoneal injection.Conclusion:Human hematopoietic cells could home to bone marrow in SCID mice and result in hematopoietic reconstitution. The transplantation method by intraperitoneal injection, which showed efficient seeding capability, can be used to both bone-marrow transplantation and reducing GVHD.
