Abstract
Hyperfractionated cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doxorubicin, dexamethasone/methotrexate, cytarabine (Hyper-CVAD) chemotherapy exerts deleterious effects on peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) mobilization. We retrospectively reviewed the use of plerixafor to salvage mobilization in 18 Hyper-CVAD treated patients who initially mobilized poorly with chemotherapy and granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF). After plerixafor administration the median peripheral blood (PB) CD34 + count rose from 3.74/μL (0-17/μL) to 6.85/μL (0-47.2/μL). The patients collected a median of 1.64 (0.21-5.56) × 10(6) CD34 + cells/kg with a median number of 3 (1-4) doses in the same collection cycle, and 11 patients reached the 2.0 × 10(6) CD34 + cells/kg minimum required for transplant. Six patients were remobilized later with G-CSF and plerixafor, and three additional patients reached this goal. For these 14 patients the median number of doses of plerixafor required to reach 2.0 × 10(6) CD34 + cells/kg was 3 (range 1-4). In conclusion, plerixafor can be utilized successfully in many cases to overcome the effects of Hyper-CVAD on PBSC mobilization.

Abstract
High-dose chemotherapy with autologous peripheral blood stem cell rescue has been reported as feasible and effective in HIV-associated lymphoma. Although a sufficient number of stem cells seems achievable in most patients, there are cases of stem cell harvest failure. The aim of this study was to describe the mobilization policies used in HIV-associated lymphoma, evaluate the failure rate and identify factors influencing mobilization results. We analyzed 155 patients who underwent attempted stem cell mobilization at 10 European centers from 2000-2012. One hundred and twenty patients had non-Hodgkin lymphoma and 35 Hodgkin lymphoma; 31% had complete remission, 57% chemosensitive disease, 10% refractory disease, 2% untested relapse. Patients were mobilized with chemotherapy + G-CSF (86%) or G-CSF alone (14%); 73% of patients collected >2 and 48% >5 × 10(6) CD34(+) cells/kg. Low CD4+ count and refractory disease were associated with mobilization failure. Low CD4(+) count, low platelet count and mobilization with G-CSF correlated with lower probability to achieve >5 × 10(6) CD34(+) cells/kg, whereas cyclophosphamide ≥ 3 g/m(2) + G-CSF predicted higher collections. Circulating CD34(+) cells and CD34/WBC ratio were strongly associated with collection result. HIV infection alone should not preclude an attempt to obtain stem cells in candidates for autologous transplant as the results are comparable to the HIV-negative population.

Abstract
Autologous and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation are considered the standard of care for many malignancies including lymphoma, multiple myeloma, and some leukemias. In many cases, mobilized peripheral blood has become the preferred source for HSCs. Plerixafor, an inhibitor of the interaction between CX chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) and stromal derived factor-1 alpha (SDF-1), has been evaluated in clinical trials and approved by the FDA and EMA. This agent has very modest toxicity and appears to be quite potent at HSC mobilization. Current clinical indications for the use of plerixafor are the subject of this review.

Abstract
Recent trends indicate that patients with nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy represent the largest subpopulation of heart failure patients with a significant need for alternative treatment modalities. Similar to patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy, patients with nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy have been found to have myocardial regions with flow abnormalities, which may represent targets for neoangiogenic therapies. CD34(+) stem cells might contribute to the formation of new blood vessels from existing vascular structures in ischemic tissues by the direct incorporation of injected cells into the newly developing vasculature or by the production and secretion of angiogenic cytokines. This review summarizes the long-term clinical effects and potential underlying mechanisms of CD34(+) cell therapy in patients with nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
Regulation of hematopoietic stem cell release, migration, and homing from the bone marrow (BM) and of the mobilization pathway involves a complex interaction among adhesion molecules, cytokines, proteolytic enzymes, stromal cells, and hematopoietic cells. The identification of new mechanisms that regulate the trafficking of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) cells has important implications, not only for hematopoietic transplantation but also for cell therapies in regenerative medicine for patients with acute myocardial infarction, spinal cord injury, and stroke, among others. This paper reviews the regulation mechanisms underlying the homing and mobilization of BM hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells, investigating the following issues: (a) the role of different factors, such as stromal cell derived factor-1 (SDF-1), granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), among other ligands; (b) the stem cell count in peripheral blood and BM and influential factors; (c) the therapeutic utilization of this phenomenon in lesions in different tissues, examining the agents involved in HSPCs mobilization, such as the different forms of G-CSF, plerixafor, and natalizumab; and (d) the effects of this mobilization on BM-derived stem/progenitor cells in clinical trials of patients with different diseases.

Abstract
Plerixafor "on demand" after chemotherapy plus granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) is efficient in peripheral stem cell mobilization, but the timing of administration and criteria for patient selection are under investigation. To devise an algorithm for the "on demand" use of plerixafor at the first mobilization attempt, we analyzed the kinetics of hematopoietic recovery and peripheral blood CD34+ cells in 107 patients treated with high-dose cyclophosphamide plus G-CSF. Fifty-one patients with myeloma were treated with cyclophosphamide 3-4 g/m(2) on day 0 followed by G-CSF 10 μg/kg from day + 6, and 56 patients with lymphoma received cyclophosphamide 6-7 g/m(2) followed by G-CSF 5 μg/kg from day + 1. Peripheral blood CD34+ cell monitoring was started on day + 8 in patients with myeloma and day + 10 in patients with lymphoma. The outcome of interest was a collection of ≤ 2 × 10(6) CD34+/kg. By a multivariate logistic regression model, CD34+ cell count < 10/μL at leukocyte recovery (> 1000/μL) or leukocyte count < 1000/μL after day + 12 in myeloma and day + 14 in lymphoma predicted the failure of mobilization by 2.7 and 2.8 times (p = 0.001 and p = 0.02) with a sensitivity of 89% and specificity of 88%, respectively. Plerixafor "on demand" may be considered in patients with myeloma and lymphoma with delayed hematopoietic recovery and < 10/μL CD34+ cells, as a first-line mobilization strategy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Plerixafor is a recently introduced agent used to improve peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) mobilization in patients with hematologic malignancies. However, some patients still cannot mobilize adequately even with plerixafor. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the PBSC collections of 18 consecutive lymphoma and multiple myeloma patients, who had previously mobilized poorly despite the use of plerixafor and received plerixafor again during remobilization. RESULTS During the first mobilization attempt, all 18 recombinant granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF; two) or G-CSF plus chemotherapy-mobilized patients (16) had poor response to plerixafor, with peripheral blood (PB) CD34+ counts ranging from 0 to 7.48 × 10(6)/L after the first dose. They collected only 0.15 × 10(6) to 1.63 × 10(6) (median, 0.40 × 10(6)) CD34+ cells/kg after one to four collections. The median average daily yield was 0.24 × 10(6) CD34+ cells/kg. Remobilization began 1 to 4 weeks later with G-CSF, plerixafor, and with (three) or without (15) cyclophosphamide. The PB CD34+ cell counts after the first dose of plerixafor were 3.04 × 10(6) to 127.54 × 10(6)/L (median, 14.58 × 10(6)/L). After one to four doses of plerixafor, each patient collected an additional 0.39 × 10(6) to 14.02 × 10(6) (median, 1.89 × 10(6)) CD34+ cells/kg, and the median daily average was 0.78 × 10(6) CD34+ cells/kg. Cumulatively, after two rounds of collections, 15 collected more than 2.0 × 10(6) CD34+ cells/kg. Thirteen have proceeded to autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) and successfully engrafted. CONCLUSION In patients who had responded poorly to the use of plerixafor as a mobilization salvage agent, response to remobilization with plerixafor for the second time was variable, but most (83.3%) patients were able to collect enough PBSCs to proceed to ASCT.

Abstract
The addition of plerixafor to G-CSF decreases the risk of failed stem cell collection, but at considerable extra cost. Using a logistic regression model based on 354 autologous mobilizations, we have identified a local minimum peripheral blood CD34 count at which the probability of a successful collection is 50%. This seems an appropriate CD34 count at which to add immediate salvage plerixafor.

Abstract
Mitochondria control bioenergetics and cell fate decisions, but how they influence nuclear gene expression is understood poorly. Here, we show that deletion or reduction in the levels of cyclophilin D (CypD, also called Ppif), a mitochondrial matrix peptidyl prolyl isomerase and apoptosis regulator, results in increased cell proliferation and enhanced cell migration and invasion. These responses are associated with extensive transcriptional changes, modulation of a chemokine/chemokine receptor gene signature, and activation of the pleiotropic inflammatory mediator, STAT3. In the absence of CypD, active STAT3 enhances cell proliferation via accelerated entry into S-phase and stimulates autocrine/paracrine cell motility through Cxcl12-Cxcr4-directed chemotaxis. Therefore, CypD directs mitochondria-to-nuclei inflammatory gene expression in normal and tumor cells. This pathway may contribute to malignant traits under conditions of CypD modulation.

Abstract
It is known that the chemokine receptor CXCR7 (RDC1) can be engaged by both chemokines CXCL12 (SDF-1) and CXCL11 (I-TAC), but the exact expression pattern and function of CXCR7 is controversial. CXCR7 expression seems to be enhanced during pathological inflammation and tumor development, and emerging data suggest this receptor is an attractive therapeutic target for autoimmune diseases and cancer. CXCR7/CXCR4 heterodimerization, β-arrestin-mediated signaling, and modulation of CXCL12 responsiveness by CXCR7 suggest that the monogamous CXCR4/CXCL12 signaling axis is an oversimplified model that needs to be revisited. Consequently, research into CXCR7 biology is of great interest and further studies are warranted. This review summarizes recent findings about the CXCR7 receptor and analyses its impact on understanding the roles of CXCL12 biology in health and disease.

Abstract
Stem cells and their malignant counterparts require the support of a specific microenvironment or "niche". While various anti-cancer therapies have been broadly successful, there are growing opportunities to target the environment in which these cells reside to further improve therapeutic efficacy and outcome. This is particularly true when the aim is to target normal or malignant stem cells. The field aiming to target or use the niches that harbor, protect, and support stem cells could be designated as "nichotherapy". In this essay, we provide a few examples of nichotherapies. Some have been employed for decades, such as hematopoietic stem cell mobilization, whereas others are emerging, such as chemosensitization of leukemia stem cells by targeting their niche.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adoptive cell therapy based on mononuclear cells (MNCs) became an important modality of cancer immunotherapy. Data about collection results and donor response of leukapheresis with the Spectra Optia v.5.0 (Terumo BCT) in nonmobilized donors are required. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS Twelve MNC collections were performed using the Spectra Optia v.5.0 in non-cytokine-stimulated donors. Leukapheresis products and peripheral blood samples from donors were assayed for CD45+, CD34+, CD3+, and CD14+ cells by flow cytometry. Prefreeze and postthaw cell counts, cell viability, and numbers of colony-forming units were assessed in cryobags and compared to data from cryovials. RESULTS Leukapheresis yielded a mean of 5.26×10(9) ±2.2×10(9) CD45+ cells, 1.5×10(9) ±0.77×10(9) CD14+ monocytes, and 2.28×10(9) ±1.2×10(9) CD3+ Tcells by processing 6690±930mL of whole blood. A significant positive correlation between yield of CD3+ Tcells and residual platelets (PLTs) and red blood cells (RBCs) was observed. This did not apply for CD34+ and CD14+ white blood cell subsets. Mean collection efficiencies for CD14+ monocytes and CD3+ Tcells were 61.8±17 and 37.2±18%, respectively. Recovery of CD14+ cells after cryopreservation was 75.2±8.2%, which was significantly lower than recovery of CD45+ cells (81.4±5.5%; p=0.01). CONCLUSION This study of a small cohort demonstrates that the Spectra Optia v.5.0 is capable of collecting low product volumes with satisfactory MNC yields and low residual RBCs and PLTs in non-cytokine-mobilized apheresis. Our data suggest that cryovials can serve as a representative surrogate for the primary product cryobag.

Abstract
The Italian Group for Bone Marrow Transplantation (Gruppo Italiano Trapianto di Midollo Osseo, GITMO) recently formalized criteria for a shared definition of poor mobilizer in order to facilitate randomized clinical trials and study comparison focusing on the efficacy of current mobilizing regimens. The availability of a standardized tool for poor mobilizer definition suggested us to retrospectively test GITMO criteria feasibility and applicability. Therefore we analyzed medical and laboratory records of adult patients affected by myeloma (MM) or lymphoma undergoing mobilization for autologous peripheral blood HSC collection from January 2010 to June 2011, at Servizio di Emotrasfusione, Istituto di Ematologia, Università Cattolica Del Sacro Cuore, Roma, UOC SIMT AO S. Camillo Forlanini Roma and SIMT Fondazione Policlinico Tor Vergata Roma. We collected data about 227 patients (134 male, 93 female) affected by MM (31.3%) NHL (58.6%) e HD (10.1%). Thirty-nine patients, 21 male and 18 female met proven poor mobilizer criteria definition resulting in a incidence of 17.2% (12.7% in MM, 21.8% in NHL and 4.3% in HD). Eleven patients, seven affected by lymphoma and four affected by myeloma, were defined predicted PM according to major criteria. Eight patients, seven affected by lymphoma and one affected by myeloma, were define predicted PM according to minor criteria. Sixteen out of 39 patients defined as poor mobilizer either according to major or minor criteria underwent collection procedures and eight (20.5%) achieved a cell dose ⩾2×10(6)/kg CD34(+) cells. GITMO criteria application was easy and resulted in poor mobilizer incidence comparable to current literature. Definitions of proven poor mobilizer and predicted poor mobilizer according to major criteria were very effective while minor criteria were less predictive. These results came from a retrospective analysis and therefore should be validated in future prospective trial. On the other hand these data could be an early overall view of the foreseeable future of peripheral blood stem cell collection. In conclusion we believe that these criteria will be able to better characterize poor mobilizer phenomenon and, consequently, to identify patients taking advantage from new mobilizing agents.

Abstract
The interaction between the chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) and stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1, also known as CXCL12) is a natural regulatory process in the human body. However, CXCR4 over-expression is also found in diseases such as cancer, where it plays a role in, among others, the metastatic spread. For this reason it is an interesting biomarker for the field of diagnostic oncology, and therefore, it is gaining increasing interest for applications in molecular imaging. Especially "small-molecule" imaging agents based on T140, FC131 and AMD3100 have been extensively studied. SDF-1, antibodies, pepducins and bioluminescence have also been used to visualize CXCR4. In this critical review reported CXCR4 targeting imaging agents are described based on their affinity, specificity and biodistribution. The level wherein CXCR4 is up-regulated in cancer patients and its relation to the different cell lines and animal models used to evaluate the efficacy of the imaging agents is also discussed (221 references).

Abstract
BACKGROUND AIMS Failure in mobilization of peripheral blood (PB) stem cells is a frequent reason for not performing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Early identification of poor mobilizers could avoid repeated attempts at mobilization, with the administration of pre-emptive rescue mobilization. METHODS Data from the first mobilization schedule of 397 patients referred consecutively for autologous HSCT between 2000 and 2010 were collected. Poor mobilization was defined as the collection of < 2 × 10(6) CD34(+)cells/kg body weight (BW). RESULTS The median age was 53 years (range 4-70) and 228 (57%) were males. Diagnoses were multiple myeloma in 133 cases, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in 114, acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome in 81, Hodgkin's lymphoma in 42, solid tumors in 17 and acute lymphoblastic leukemia in 10. The mobilization regimen consisted of recombinant human granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) in 346 patients (87%) and chemotherapy followed by G-CSF (C + G-CSF) in 51 (13%). Poor mobilization occurred in 105 patients (29%), without differences according to mobilization schedule. Diagnosis, previous therapy with purine analogs and three or more previous chemotherapy lines were predictive factors for poor mobilization. A CD34(+)cell count in PB > 13.8/μL was enough to ensure ≥ 2 × 10(6) CD34(+)cells/kg, with high sensitivity (90%) and specificity (91%). CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of poor mobilization was high, being associated with disease type, therapy with purine analogs and multiple chemotherapy regimens. The threshold of CD34(+) cell count in PB identified poor mobilizers, in whom the administration of immediate or pre-emptive plerixafor could be useful to avoid a second mobilization.

Abstract
Patients with a number of peripheral CD34+ cells ≥20/μL have recently been defined in the literature as "poor mobilizers". We retrospectively reviewed medical records from a total of 248 patients affected by hematological malignancies or solid tumors undergoing peripheral blood stem cell collection following chemotherapy plus G-CSF. On the basis of the CD34+ cell peak in peripheral blood following mobilization therapy, patients were defined as good mobilizers (group A, CD34+ cells ≥20/μL), relative poor mobilizers (group B, CD34+ cells <20 and ≥8/μL) and absolute poor mobilizers (group C, CD34+ cells <8/μL). One hundred and seventy-seven (71%) patients resulted good mobilizers, 35 (14%) patients relative poor mobilizers and 36 (15%) patients absolute poor mobilizers. Target of stem cell collection was ≥2.0×10(6) CD34+cells/kg for each transplantation procedure. All patients in group A, 20 patients in group B (57%) and 1 patient in group C (2.7%) were able to collect ≥2.0×10(6) CD34+cells/kg. The multivariate analysis confirmed that more than three lines of previous chemotherapy and a previous autologous PBSC transplantation negatively affect mobilization of CD34+ cells in peripheral blood. Our data suggest that a number of CD34+ cells ≥20/μL does not always result in a failed stem cell collection and in fact in our patient series more than 70% of the patients defined as poor mobilizers have indeed collected the minimum number of 2.0×10(6) CD34+cells/kg required for a successful transplantation. The use of new agent such as CXCR4 antagonist plerixafor might further improve mobilization efficacy in such patients.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) are used in clinical transplantation to restore hematopoietic function. Here we review the role of the soluble matrix metalloproteinases MMP-2 and MMP-9, and membrane type (MT)1-MMP in modulating processes critical to successful transplantation of HSPC, such as mobilization and homing. Growth factors and cytokines which are employed as mobilizing agents upregulate MMP-2 and MMP-9. Recently we demonstrated that MT1-MMP enhances HSPC migration across reconstituted basement membrane, activates proMMP-2, and contributes to a highly proteolytic bone marrow microenvironment that facilitates egress of HSPC. On the other hand, we reported that molecules secreted during HSPC mobilization and collection, such as hyaluronic acid and thrombin, increase MT1-MMP expression in cord blood HSPC and enhance (prime) their homing-related responses. We suggest that modulation of MMP-2, MMP-9, and MT1-MMP expression has potential for development of new therapies for more efficient mobilization, homing, and engraftment of HSPC, which could lead to improved transplantation outcomes.

Abstract
The CXCR4 antagonist AMD3100 is progressively replacing cyclophosphamide (CYP) as adjuvant to granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) to mobilize hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) for autologous transplants in patients who failed prior mobilization with G-CSF alone. It has recently emerged that G-CSF mediates HSC mobilization and inhibits bone formation via specific bone marrow (BM) macrophages. We compared the effect of these three mobilizing agents on BM macrophages, bone formation, osteoblasts, HSC niches and HSC reconstitution potential. Both G-CSF and CYP suppressed niche-supportive macrophages and osteoblasts, and inhibited expression of endosteal cytokines resulting in major impairment of HSC reconstitution potential remaining in the mobilized BM. In sharp contrast, although AMD3100 was effective at mobilizing HSC, it did not suppress osteoblasts, endosteal cytokine expression or reconstitution potential of HSC remaining in the mobilized BM. In conclusion, although G-CSF, CYP and AMD3100 efficiently mobilize HSC into the blood, their effects on HSC niches and bone formation are distinct with both G-CSF and CYP targeting HSC niche function and bone formation, whereas AMD3100 directly targets HSC without altering niche function or bone formation.
