Murine leukemia inhibitory factor enhances retroviral-vector infection efficiency of hematopoietic progenitors.
We have investigated the in vitro effects of the cytokine leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) on normal murine hematopoietic progenitors by measuring recovery and retroviral vector infection efficiency of 13-day posttransplant, spleen-colony-forming cell (CFU-S 13) in short-term culture. Up to a twofold increase in CFU-S13 recovery was observed, from 9.7 x 10(-5) cells in untreated controls to 17....
متن کاملLeukemia inhibitory factor improves survival of retroviral vector- infected hematopoietic stem cells in vitro, allowing efficient long- term expression of vector-encoded human adenosine deaminase in vivo
Low recovery and poor retroviral vector infection efficiency of hematopoietic stem cells has hindered application of gene therapy for disease affecting blood-forming tissues. Developmental restriction (or death) of stem cells during ex vivo infection has contributed to these difficulties. In these studies we report that the cytokine leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) directly or indirectly suppor...
متن کاملPML-RAR induces promyelocytic leukemias with high efficiency following retroviral gene transfer into purified murine hematopoietic progenitors.
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is associated with chromosomal translocations resulting in fusion proteins of the retinoic acid receptor (RAR). Here, we report a novel murine model system for APL, based on the transduction of purified murine hematopoietic progenitors (lin(-)) using high-titer retroviral vectors encoding promyelocytic leukemia-RAR (PML-RAR), and the green fluorescent protein ...
متن کاملControl of splicing efficiency by the mouse histone H2a element in a murine leukemia virus-based retroviral vector.
While using various human complementary DNA (cDNA) sequences in the context of the murine leukemia virus (MLV)-based retroviral vector, it was found that a retroviral vector containing some human cDNA sequences produces unusually low viral titer. One of those sequences is that for the human IL-1 receptor antagonist protein (IL1RN). The RNA analysis showed that a cryptic splice acceptor sequence...
متن کاملRAPID COMMUNICATION Gene Therapy for Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML): A Retroviral Vector That Renders Hematopoietic Progenitors Methotrexate-Resistant and CML Progenitors Functionally Normal and Nontumorigenic In Vivo
Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) is a malignant disease BCR/ABL mRNA and p210 protein levels by 6to 10fold in most cells. This subsequently led to the restoration of the human hematopoietic stem cell caused by the BCR/ ABL gene rearrangement. The only curative therapy is alloof normal function of BCR/ABL cDNA cells: they grew significantly slower in the presence of interleukin-3 (IL-3); they ...
