Research Abstract |
We successfully induced CD34 positive hematopoietic stem cells (iCD34) from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells) of a cynomolgus macaque which homozygously have a certain haplotype of major histocompatibility complex (Mafa-HT1). Next, we transduced well-known leukemic genes, AML1/ETO and FLT3mutant, or BCR/ABL, to the iCD34 by retrovirus. These two types of iCD34 (leukemic iCD34) cells with the leukemic genes could form many colonies in methylcellulose media and be cultured for long term without any cytokines. These leukemic iCD34 could be alive in NOD/Shi-scid, IL-2Rγnull mouse (NOG mouse) after intrabonemarrow-bonemarrow transplantation (IBM-BMT). We are preparing experiments in which a bonemarrow transplantation of the leukemic iCD34 with AML1/ETO+FLT3mutant to a cynomolgusmacaque with heterogygous MHC.
