This study describes the use of a previously reported chimerised monoclonal antibody (mAb), ch2448, to kill human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) in vivo and prevent or delay the formation of teratomas. ch2448 was raised against hESCs and was previously shown to effectively kill ovarian and breast cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. The antigen target was subsequently found to be Annexin A2, an oncofetal antigen expressed on both embryonic cells and cancer cells. Against cancer cells, ch2448 binds and kills via antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) and/or antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) routes. Here, we investigate if the use of ch2448 can be extended to hESC. ch2448 was found to bind specifically to undifferentiated hESC but not differentiated progenitors. Similar to previous study using cancer cells, ch2448 kills hESC in vivo either indirectly by eliciting ADCC or directly as an ADC. The treatment with ch2448 post-transplantation eliminated the in vivo circulating undifferentiated cells and prevented or delayed the formation of teratomas. This surveillance role of ch2448 adds an additional layer of safeguard to enhance the safety and efficacious use of pluripotent stem cell-derived products in regenerative medicine. Thereby, translating the use of ch2448 in the treatment of cancers to a proof of concept study in hESC (or pluripotent stem cell [PSC]), we show that mAbs can also be used to eliminate teratoma forming cells in vivo during PSC-derived cell therapies. We propose to use this strategy to complement existing methods to eliminate teratoma-forming cells in vitro. Residual undifferentiated cells may escape in vitro removal methods and be introduced into patients together with the differentiated cells. 相似文献

Transformation of polychlorinated biphenyls was studied using different strains of in vitro cultured cells of horseradish (Armoracia rusticana L.). Time and concentration dependence of this process and production of intracellular and extracellular peroxidases were measured with differentiated shooty teratoma culture K54. The yield of PCB transformation and the viability of the cells were highly dependent on PCB concentration. 100 ppm PCB totally inhibited growth of the cells, and reduced their metabolism of xenobiotics. Experiments with a peroxidase (POX) inhibitor, propylgallate, and a cytochrome P450 inhibitor, aminobenztriazole, indicated the involvement of both enzymatic systems in PCB metabolism. 相似文献

The interaction between transplanted cells and host tissues is important for the growth
and maintenance of transplanted cells. To analyze the mechanisms of these interactions, a
systemic fluorescent protein-expressing mouse is a useful recipient. In this study, we
generated a novel NOG strain, which strongly expresses enhanced green fluorescent protein
(EGFP; PgkEGFP-NOG), especially in the liver, kidney, gastrointestinal tract, and testis.
Because the host tissues expressed EGFP, xenotransplanted human cancer cells were clearly
identified as EGFP-negative colonies in PgkEGFP-NOG mice. Immunohistochemical analysis
revealed that EGFP-expressing stromal tissues formed a complicated tumor microenvironment
within xenograft tissues. Moreover, a similar microenvironment was observed in human iPS
cell-derived teratomas. Collectively, these results indicated that a suitable
microenvironment is essential for the growth and maintenance of xenotransplanted cells and
that PgkEGFP-NOG mice represent a useful animal model for analyzing the mechanisms of
microenvironment formation. 相似文献

A homozygous nonsense mutation (Ter) in murine Dnd1 (Dnd1Ter/Ter) results in a significant early loss of primordial germ cells (PGCs) prior to colonization of the gonad in both sexes and all genetic backgrounds tested. The same mutation also leads to testicular teratomas only on the 129Sv/J background. Male mutants on other genetic backgrounds ultimately lose all PGCs with no incidence of teratoma formation. It is not clear how these PGCs are lost or what factors directly control the strain-specific phenotype variation. To determine the mechanism underlying early PGC loss we crossed Dnd1Ter/Ter embryos to a Bax-null background and found that germ cells were partially rescued. Surprisingly, on a mixed genetic background, rescued male germ cells also generated fully developed teratomas at a high rate. Double-mutant females on a mixed background did not develop teratomas, but were fertile and produced viable off-spring. However, when Dnd1Ter/Ter XX germ cells developed in a testicular environment they gave rise to the same neoplastic clusters as mutant XY germ cells in a testis. We conclude that BAX-mediated apoptosis plays a role in early germ cell loss and protects from testicular teratoma formation on a mixed genetic background. 相似文献

The ter mutation first causes primordial germ cell deficiency in ter/ter mouse embryos at 8 days of gestation 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The ter (teratoma) mutation causes primordial germ cell (PGC) deficiency in ter/ter embryos at 9.5–12.5 days of post-coitum (dpc) in mouse strains 129/Sv- ter and LTXBJ- ter . To study the effects of the ter mutation on the PGC development more precisely, we examined the PGC number and distribution in 7.5–12.5 dpc embryo of ter congenic C57BL/6J- ter strain using their complete serial sections. The ter genotypes of embryos were identified by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) polymorphisms of the microsatellite DNA of the Grl -1 locus mapped near the ter locus. Results showed that: (i) the PGC number in ter/ter embryos was similar to those of + / ter and + / + embryos at 7.5 dpc, and did not increase at 8.0–12.5 dpc, although those of normal littermates did usually; (ii) the PGC migration to genital ridges was never affected in all embryos; and (iii) the ter genotype difference in the PGC numbers was not recognized between + / ter and + / + embryos. We concluded that the ter mutation does not affect the PGC appearance around 7.5 dpc, but first causes PGC deficiency around 8.0 dpc at the beginning of their migration and proliferation, suggesting that the normal function of the ter gene may be essential for the proliferation or survival mechanisms of PGC. 相似文献

Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) have the potential to fundamentally change the way that we go about treating and understanding human disease. Despite this extraordinary potential, these cells also have an innate capability to form tumors in immunocompromised individuals when they are introduced in their pluripotent state. Although current therapeutic strategies involve transplantation of only differentiated hPSC derivatives, there is still a concern that transplanted cell populations could contain a small percentage of cells that are not fully differentiated. In addition, these cells have been frequently reported to acquire genetic alterations that, in some cases, are associated with certain types of human cancers. Here, we try to separate the panic from reality and rationally evaluate the true tumorigenic potential of these cells. We also discuss a recent study examining the effect of culture conditions on the genetic integrity of hPSCs. Finally, we present a set of sensible guidelines for minimizing the tumorigenic potential of hPSC‐derived cells. © 2016 The Authors. Inside the Cell published by Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

Human embryonic stem cell lines derived from the Chinese population 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17
Six human embryonic stem cell lines were established from surplus blastocysts. The cell lines expressed alkaline phosphatase and molecules typical of primate embryonic stem cells, including Oct-4, Nanog, TDGF1, Sox2, EBAF, Thy-1, FGF4, Rex-1, SSEA-3, SSEA-4, TRA-1-60 and TRA-1-81. Five of the six lines formed embryoid bodies that expressed markers of a variety of cell types; four of them formed teratomas with tissue types representative of all three embryonic germ layers. These human embryonic stem cells are capable of producing clones of undifferentiated morphology, and one of them was propagated to become a subline. Human embryonic stem cell lines from the Chinese population should facilitate stem cell research and may be valuable in studies of population genetics and ecology. 相似文献
