[PMID: 37295970 PMCID: PMC11221253 DOI: 10.1016/j.htct.2023.04.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2022] [Revised: 10/23/2022] [Accepted: 04/17/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is the long-term consolidation treatment for various hematological malignancies. The collection of hematopoietic stem cell yield is critical to successful ASCTs, but not always achieved due to hematopoietic stem cell mobilization failure (HSCMF). Details regarding the cell collection and outcomes of those who fail mobilization are still lacking. Therefore, this study aimed to yield data on clinical outcomes and cellular products after HSCMF. METHODS Retrospective, unicentric study assessing clinical outcomes and characteristics of collected progenitor cells. The data were collected from patient databases. The results were reported in median, rates and percentages and absolute values. Patients older than 18 years of age at the time of mobilization and HSCMF were included. RESULTS Five hundred ninety-nine patients underwent mobilization protocols. Thirty-five (5.8%) of them failed in the mobilization and fourteen (40%) died. Median time to death was eight months. Disease progression and infection were responsible for all deaths. Median relapse-free survival was 6.5 months (20 patients, 57%). Seven (20%) survivors were receiving salvage therapy and five (14%) were being followed clinically. Six (20.6%) participants underwent collection by apheresis, with insufficient cell collection. The median quantity of peripheral CD34+ cells in those patients was 10.5/mm3. The median CD34+ quantity collected was 0.86 × 106 CD34+ cells/kg. CONCLUSIONS The mobilization failure was associated with limited survival. Nonetheless, collected products offered perspectives for ex vivo expansion. Further studies should investigate the feasibility of expanding collected CD34+ cells to use as grafts for ASCT.

Abstract
Achieving successful hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) relies on two fundamental pillars: effective mobilization and efficient collection through apheresis to attain the optimal graft dose. These cornerstones pave the way for enhanced patient outcomes. The primary challenges encountered by the clinical unit and collection facility within a transplant program encompass augmenting mobilization efficiency to optimize the harvest of target cell populations, implementing robust monitoring and predictive strategies for mobilization, streamlining the apheresis procedure to minimize collection duration while ensuring adequate yield, prioritizing patient comfort by reducing the overall collection time, guaranteeing the quality and purity of stem cell products to optimize graft function and transplant success, and facilitating seamless coordination between diverse entities involved in the HSCT process. In this review, we aim to address key questions and provide insights into the critical aspects of mobilizing and collecting hematopoietic stem cells for transplantation purposes.

Abstract
Mobilization or egress of stem cells from bone marrow (BM) into peripheral blood (PB) is an evolutionary preserved and important mechanism in an organism for self-defense and regeneration. BM-derived stem cells circulate always at steady-state conditions in PB, and their number increases during stress situations related to (a) infections, (b) tissue organ injury, (c) stress, and (d) strenuous exercise. Stem cells also show a circadian pattern of their PB circulating level with peak in early morning hours and nadir late at night. The number of circulating in PB stem cells could be pharmacologically increased after administration of some drugs such as cytokine granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) or small molecular antagonist of CXCR4 receptor AMD3100 (Plerixafor) that promote their egress from BM into PB and lymphatic vessels. Circulating can be isolated from PB for transplantation purposes by leukapheresis. This important homeostatic mechanism is governed by several intrinsic complementary pathways. In this chapter, we will discuss the role of purinergic signaling and extracellular nucleotides in regulating this process and review experimental strategies to study their involvement in mobilization of various types of stem cells that reside in murine BM.

Extracellular Adenosine (eAdo) - A2B Receptor Axis Inhibits in Nlrp3 Inflammasome-dependent Manner Trafficking of Hematopoietic Stem/progenitor Cells. Stem Cell Rev Rep 2022; 18:2893-2911.

Abstract
AbstractWe postulated that mobilization, homing, and engraftment of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSCPs) is facilitated by a state of sterile inflammation induced in bone marrow (BM) after administration of pro-mobilizing drugs or in response to pre-transplant myeloablative conditioning. An important role in this phenomenon plays purinergic signaling that by the release of extracellular adenosine triphosphate (eATP) activates in HSPCs and in cells in the hematopoietic microenvironment an intracellular pattern recognition receptor (PPR) known as Nlrp3 inflammasome. We reported recently that its deficiency results in defective trafficking of HSPCs. Moreover, it is known that eATP after release into extracellular space is processed by cell surface expressed ectonucleotidases CD39 and CD73 to extracellular adenosine (eAdo) that in contrast to eATP shows an anti-inflammatory effect. Based on data that the state of sterile inflammation promotes trafficking of HSPCs, and since eAdo is endowed with anti-inflammatory properties we become interested in how eAdo will affect the mobilization, homing, and engraftment of HSPCs and which of eAdo receptors are involved in these processes. As expected, eAdo impaired HSPCs trafficking and this occurred in autocrine- and paracrine-dependent manner by direct stimulation of these cells or by affecting cells in the BM microenvironment. We report herein for the first time that this defect is mediated by activation of the A2B receptor and a specific inhibitor of this receptor improves eAdo-aggravated trafficking of HSPCs. To explain this at the molecular level eAdo-A2B receptor interaction upregulates in HSPCs in NF-kB-, NRF2- and cAMP-dependent manner heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), that is Nlrp3 inflammasome inhibitor. This corroborated with our analysis of proteomics signature in murine HSPCs exposed to eAdo that revealed that A2B inhibition promotes cell migration and proliferation. Based on this we postulate that blockage of A2B receptor may accelerate the mobilization of HSPCs as well as their hematopoietic reconstitution and this approach could be potentially considered in the future to be tested in the clinic.

Abstract
The global emergence of clinical diseases caused by enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) is an issue of great concern. EHEC release Shiga toxins (Stxs) as their key virulence factors, and investigations on the cell-damaging mechanisms toward target cells are inevitable for the development of novel mitigation strategies. Stx-mediated hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), characterized by the triad of microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and acute renal injury, is the most severe outcome of an EHEC infection. Hemolytic anemia during HUS is defined as the loss of erythrocytes by mechanical disruption when passing through narrowed microvessels. The formation of thrombi in the microvasculature is considered an indirect effect of Stx-mediated injury mainly of the renal microvascular endothelial cells, resulting in obstructions of vessels. In this review, we summarize and discuss recent data providing evidence that HUS-associated hemolytic anemia may arise not only from intravascular rupture of erythrocytes, but also from the extravascular impairment of erythropoiesis, the development of red blood cells in the bone marrow, via direct Stx-mediated damage of maturing erythrocytes, leading to “non-hemolytic” anemia.

Abstract
This article presents a practical overview of the treatment of younger, newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients, focusing on novel treatment strategies. With the introduction of effective new agents, multiple myeloma is one of the most active and changing fields in clinical oncology. In addition, monitoring technology has become reliable and practical. Achieving and sustaining minimal residual disease negativity (MRD- ), such as multiparameter flow cytometry (MFC) < 10-5, is one of the goals of therapy. MRD- is significantly associated with prolonged progression-free survival, whereas MRD persistence (MRD +) is an independent factor for poor progression-free survival. Evidence from several recent studies evaluating modern therapy has further supported the positive correlation between depth of response and outcomes. Multiple myeloma can become a chronic illness with sustained MRD- in a significant number of patients. Our ultimate hope is to leverage tumoricidal-immunomodulatory sequential therapies and to cure a subset of our patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Smoking could reduce the CD34+ cells in peripheral blood of healthy individual. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between smoking load and the effect of peripheral blood hematopoietic progenitor cells (PBPCs) mobilization by granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) alone in healthy donors. METHODS Retrospective analysis was performed on 145 healthy adult PBPCs donors who underwent PBPCs mobilization and collection. Smoking factors were evaluated and correlated with mobilization responses, as indicated by the collected CD34+ cells concentration. RESULTS The collected CD34+ cells concentration was closely related to pre-CD34 (P < .001) and CD34+ cells collected per volume blood processed (P < .001) which suggested that collected CD34+ cells concentration was a reliable indicator of PBPCs mobilization efficiency. The heavy smoking donors revealed significantly lower collected CD34+ cells concentration, compared to that of the nonsmoking (P < .001) and light smoking donors (P < .05). The levels of collected CD34+ cells in light smoking were also obviously lower than that in nonsmoking donors (P < .05).There were no obvious differences in the collected CD34+ cells concentration, overall processed blood volume and total collected CD34+ cells between nonsmoking and smoking cessation groups (P = .490; P = .464; P = .819). CONCLUSION Cigarette smoking is an important factor that affects the yield of PBPCs in male donors, especially when the smoking load is more than five pack-years. Mobilization of PBMCs could be restored by smoking cessation in chronic smokers.
