Method of amplifying hematopoietic stem cell and hematopoietic progenitor cell
View Patent ↗The present invention provides useful means in an expansion culture system for a hematopoietic cell (hematopoietic stem cell, hematopoietic progenitor cell). Specifically, the present invention provides a composition for expanding a hematopoietic cell (hematopoietic stem cell, hematopoietic progenitor cell) containing recombinant human serum albumin; a serum-free medium for expanding a hematopoietic cell containing a basal medium and recombinant human serum albumin; a method of expanding a hematopoietic cell comprising culturing a hematopoietic cell in a serum-free medium containing recombinant human serum albumin, and a culture of a hematopoietic cell that can be obtained by the expansion method.
1. A method of expanding a hematopoietic stem cell, which comprises
(i) forming a first solution comprising cholesterol,
(ii) adding the first solution to a serum-free medium to form a second solution, wherein the second solution further comprises lecithin, tocopherol, stem cell factor, thrombopoietin, Flt3/Flk2 ligand, interleukin-6, soluble interleukin-6 receptor, and a recombinant human serum albumin (rHSA)-containing composition obtained from yeast, and
(iii) culturing a hematopoietic stem cell in the second solution to expand the hematopoietic stem cell and to suppress differentiation of the hematopoietic stem cell.
2. The method of claim 1 , which further comprises isolating the hematopoietic stem cell.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the hematopoietic stem cell is derived from umbilical cord blood.
4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the expanded hematopoietic stem cell is selected from the group consisting of CD34 + /CD38 − , CD34 + /DR − , CD34 + /CD90 + , CD34 + /CD117 + , CD34 + /CD123 + , and CD34 + /CD133 + .
5. The method of claim 2 , wherein the expanded hematopoietic stem cell is CD34 +/CD 38 − /DR − .
6. The method of claim 2 , wherein the first solution further comprises ethanol.
7. The method of claim 2 , wherein the expanded hematopoietic stem cell is CD34 + /CD38 − .
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the hematopoietic stem cell is derived from umbilical cord blood.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the expanded hematopoietic stem cell is CD34 + /CD38 − /DR − .
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the serum-free medium comprises a basal medium.
11. The method of claim 10 , which further comprises administering the hematopoietic stem cell to a patient.
12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the patient is undergoing cell transplant therapy.
13. The method of claim 11 , wherein the hematopoietic stem cell is derived from umbilical cord blood.
14. The method of claim 11 , wherein the expanded hematopoietic stem cell is selected from the group consisting of CD34 + /CD38 − , CD34 + /DR − , CD34 + /CD90 + , CD34 + /CD117 + , CD34 + /CD123 + , and CD34 + /CD133 + .
15. The method of claim 11 , wherein the expanded hematopoietic stem cell is CD34 + /CD38 − /DR − .
16. The method of claim 11 , wherein the first solution further comprises ethanol.
17. The method of claim 11 , wherein the expanded hematopoietic stem cell is CD34+/CD38−.
18. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first solution further comprises ethanol.
19. The method of claim 1 , wherein the expanded hematopoietic stem cell is CD34 + /CD38 − .
20. A method of expanding a hematopoietic stem cell, which comprises
(i) forming a first solution comprising cholesterol,
(ii) adding the first solution to a serum-free medium to form a second solution, wherein the second solution further comprises lecithin, tocopherol, stem cell factor, thrombopoietin, Flt3/Flk2 ligand, interleukin-6, soluble interleukin-6 receptor, and a recombinant human serum albumin (rHSA)-containing composition obtained from yeast, and
(iii) culturing a hematopoietic stem cell in the second solution to expand the hematopoietic stem cell and to suppress differentiation of the hematopoietic stem cell, wherein the expanded hematopoietic stem cell is selected from the group consisting of CD34 + /CD38 − , CD34 + /DR − , CD34 + /CD90 + , CD34 + /CD117 + , CD34 + /CD123 + , and CD34 + /CD133 + .
