摘要

It is difficult to expand hematopoietic stem cells ex vivo by stimulation with hematopoietic cytokines, since any cytokine thus far tested induces differentiation as well as growth. It is therefore important to consider how to inhibit differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells during ex vivo culture. For this purpose, we have constructed retroviral vectors expressing dominant-negative retinoic acid receptor- (RAR ) genes. The immature hematopoietic cell lines 32D and FDCPmix, transduced with the dominant-negative RAR -expressing vectors, remained blastic or promyelocytic and continued to grow without differentiation even under the differentiation-inducing conditions. This block of differentiation could be overcome by treatment with all-trans retinoic acid, suggesting that the transduced cells still retained their differentiating ability. This leads to the possible application of dominant-negative RAR ? genes for the ex vivo expansion of hematopoietic stem cells in combination with hematopoietic cytokines. For clinical applications, however, dominant-negative RAR ? genes should be removed from host cells after ex vivo expansion. We have, therefore, incorporated two loxP sites on either side of the RAR gene in each vector so that removal of the integrated differentiation-blocking RAR ? genes from the transduced cells could be achieved using the Cre recombinase/loxP system (reversible integration of a gene of interest). We are investigating efficient ways to introduce the Cre recombinase into host cells.
