Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor-Mobilized Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells: An Alternative Cellular Source for Chimeric Antigen Receptor Therapy. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:5769.

Abstract
Lymphocyte collection by apheresis for CAR-T production usually does not include blood mobilized using granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) due to the widespread knowledge that it causes a decrease in the number and functionality of lymphocytes. However, it is used for stem cell transplant, which is a common treatment for hematological malignancies. The growing demand for CAR therapies (CAR-T and NK-CAR), both in research and clinics, makes it necessary to evaluate whether mobilized PBSC products may be potential candidates for use in such therapies. This review collects recent works that experimentally verify the role and functionality of T and NK lymphocytes and the generation of CAR-T from apheresis after G-CSF mobilization. As discussed, T cells do not vary significantly in their phenotype, the ratio of CD4+ and CD8+ remains constant, and the different sub-populations remain stable. In addition, the expansion and proliferation rates are invariant regardless of mobilization with G-CSF as well as the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines and the cytotoxic ability. Therefore, cells mobilized before apheresis are postulated as a new alternative source of T cells for adoptive therapies that will serve to alleviate high demand, increase availability, and take advantage of the substantial number of existing cryopreserved products.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation requires the collection of hematopoietic cells from patients or stem cell donors. Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) is widely used in the clinic to mobilize hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) from the adult bone marrow niche into circulation, allowing a collection of HSPCs from the blood. The mechanism by which G-CSF acts to mobilize HSPCs is unclear, with some studies showing a direct stimulation of stem cells and others suggesting that myeloid cells are required. In this study, we developed a heat-inducible G-CSF transgenic zebrafish line to study HSPC mobilization in vivo. Live imaging of HSPCs after G-CSF induction revealed an increase in circulating HSPCs, demonstrating a successful HSPC mobilization. These mobilized HSPCs went on to prematurely colonize the kidney marrow, the adult zebrafish hematopoietic niche. We eliminated neutrophils or macrophages using a nitroreductase-based cell ablation system and found that G-CSF still mobilizes HSPCs from the niche. Our findings indicate that neutrophils and macrophages are not required for G-CSF-induced HSPC mobilization from the embryonic hematopoietic niche.

Abstract
Skeletogenesis and hematopoiesis are interdependent. Niches form between cells of both lineages where microenvironmental cues support specific lineage commitment. Because of the complex topography of bone marrow (BM), the identity and function of cells within specialized niches has not been fully elucidated. Dentin Matrix Protein 1 (DMP1)-Cre mice have been utilized in bone studies as mature osteoblasts and osteocytes express DMP1. DMP1 has been identified in CXCL12+ cells and an undefined CD45+ population. We crossed DMP1-Cre with Ai9 reporter mice and analyzed the tdTomato+ (tdT+) population in BM and secondary hematopoietic organs. CD45+tdT+ express myeloid markers including CD11b and are established early in ontogeny. CD45+tdT+ cells phagocytose, respond to LPS and are radioresistant. Depletion of macrophages caused a significant decrease in tdT+CD11b+ myeloid populations. A subset of CD45+tdT+ cells may be erythroid island macrophages (EIM) which are depleted after G-CSF treatment. tdT+CXCL12+ cells are in direct contact with F4/80 macrophages, express RANKL and form a niche with B220+ B cells. A population of resident cells within the thymus are tdT+ and express myeloid markers and RANKL. In conclusion, in addition to targeting osteoblast/osteocytes, DMP1-Cre labels unique cell populations of macrophage and stromal cells within BM and thymus niches and expresses key microenvironmental factors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adequate stem cell collection is essential for successful stem cell transplantation. Heparin enhances stem cell mobilization by competing with heparin sulfate proteoglycans. Heparin is also used as an anticoagulant before leukapheresis. Here, we evaluated the effects of heparin on stem cell mobilization in patients who underwent autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). METHODS We evaluated patients who underwent ASCT. Patients were divided into two groups: those who received heparin plus citrate (heparinized patients) and those who received citrate only (nonheparinized patients) for anticoagulation. Univariate and multivariate analyses were also performed. The collection efficiency 2 (CE2) for CD34+ cells was calculated and compared between heparinized and nonheparinized patients. RESULTS This study included 1017 patients. There were 478 (47%) heparinized and 539 (53%) nonheparinized patients. The number of collected CD34+ cells was significantly higher in heparinized patients (P < .00001). The multivariate analyses showed that using heparin was an independent positive factor for collected CD34+ cells (adj-R2 = 0.744; F = 369.331, P < .00001). CE2 was significantly higher in heparinized patients than in nonheparinized patients (66.8% vs 52.1%; P < .00001). The rate of collecting at least 2 × 106 /kg CD34+ cells was 3.3 times higher for heparinized patients in poor mobilizers (P < .00001). Heparinized patients had significantly higher total nucleated and mononuclear cell counts (P < .00001 and <.00001, respectively). CONCLUSION Heparin enhances stem cell collection and increases CE2. The use of heparin may reduce the need for other strategies to increase stem cell mobilization.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)-mediated mobilization of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) is a well-established method to prepare HSCs for transplantation nowadays. A sufficient number of HSCs is critical for successful HSC transplantation. However, approximately 2-6% of healthy stem cell donors are G-CSF-poor mobilizers for unknown reasons; thus increasing the uncertainties of HSC transplantation. The mechanism underlining G-CSF-mediated HSC mobilization remains elusive, so detailed mechanisms and an enhanced HSC mobilization strategy are urgently needed. Evidence suggests that P-selectin and P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) are one of the cell-cell adhesion ligand-receptor pairs for HSCs to keep contacting bone marrow (BM) stromal cells before being mobilized into circulation. This study hypothesized that blockage of PSGL-1 and P-selectin may disrupt HSC-stromal cell interaction and facilitate HSC mobilization. METHODS The plasma levels of soluble P-selectin (sP-sel) before and after G-CSF administration in humans and male C57BL/6J mice were analyzed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Male mice with P-selectin deficiency (Selp-/-) were further employed to investigate whether P-selectin is essential for G-CSF-induced HSC mobilization and determine which cell lineage is sP-sel derived from. Finally, wild-type mice were injected with either G-CSF or recombinant sP-sel to investigate whether sP-sel alone is sufficient for inducing HSC mobilization and whether it accomplishes this by binding to HSCs and disrupting their interaction with stromal cells in the BM. RESULTS A significant increase in plasma sP-sel levels was observed in humans and mice following G-CSF administration. Treatments of G-CSF induced a decrease in the level of HSC mobilization in Selp-/- mice compared with the wild-type (Selp+/+) controls. Additionally, the transfer of platelets derived from wild-type mice can ameliorate the defected HSC mobilization in the Selp-/- recipients. G-CSF induces the release of sP-sel from platelets, which is sufficient to mobilize BM HSCs into the circulation of mice by disrupting the PSGL-1 and P-selectin interaction between HSCs and stromal cells. These results collectively suggested that P-selectin is a critical factor for G-CSF-induced HSC mobilization. CONCLUSIONS sP-sel was identified as a novel endogenous HSC-mobilizing agent. sP-sel injections achieved a relatively faster and more convenient regimen to mobilize HSCs in mice than G-CSF. These findings may serve as a reference for developing and optimizing human HSC mobilization in the future.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) from a healthy donor replace the patient's ones. Ex vivo HSC gene therapy (HSC-GT) is a form of HSCT in which HSCs, usually from an autologous source, are genetically modified before infusion, to generate a progeny of gene-modified cells. In HSCT and HSC-GT, chemotherapy is administered before infusion to free space in the bone marrow (BM) niche, which is required for the engraftment of infused cells. Here, we review alternative chemotherapy-free approaches to niche voidance that could replace conventional regimens and alleviate the morbidity of the procedure. SOURCES OF DATA Literature was reviewed from PubMed-listed peer-reviewed articles. No new data are presented in this article. AREAS OF AGREEMENT Chemotherapy exerts short and long-term toxicity to haematopoietic and non-haematopoietic organs. Whenever chemotherapy is solely used to allow engraftment of donor HSCs, rather than eliminating malignant cells, as in the case of HSC-GT for inborn genetic diseases, non-genotoxic approaches sparing off-target tissues are highly desirable. AREAS OF CONTROVERSY In principle, HSCs can be temporarily moved from the BM niches using mobilizing drugs or selectively cleared with targeted antibodies or immunotoxins to make space for the infused cells. However, translation of these principles into clinically relevant settings is only at the beginning, and whether therapeutically meaningful levels of chimerism can be safely established with these approaches remains to be determined. GROWING POINTS In pre-clinical models, mobilization of HSCs from the niche can be tailored to accommodate the exchange and engraftment of infused cells. Infused cells can be further endowed with a transient engraftment advantage. AREAS TIMELY FOR DEVELOPING RESEARCH Inter-individual efficiency and kinetics of HSC mobilization need to be carefully assessed. Investigations in large animal models of emerging non-genotoxic approaches will further strengthen the rationale and encourage application to the treatment of selected diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Granulocyte invasion into the brain is a pathoanatomical feature differentiating neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) from multiple sclerosis (MS). We aimed to determine whether granulocyte activation markers (GAM) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) can be used as a biomarker to distinguish NMOSD from MS, and whether levels associate with neurological impairment. METHODS We quantified CSF levels of five GAM (neutrophil elastase, myeloperoxidase, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin, matrixmetalloproteinase-8, tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1), as well as a set of inflammatory and tissue-destruction markers, known to be upregulated in NMOSD and MS (neurofilament light chain, glial fibrillary acidic protein, S100B, matrix metalloproteinase-9, intercellular adhesion molecule-1, vascular cellular adhesion molecule-1), in two cohorts of patients with mixed NMOSD and relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). RESULTS In acute NMOSD, GAM and adhesion molecules, but not the other markers, were higher than in RRMS and correlated with actual clinical disability scores. Peak GAM levels occurred at the onset of NMOSD attacks, while they were stably low in MS, allowing to differentiate the two diseases for ≤21 days from onset of clinical exacerbation. Composites of GAM provided area under the curve values of 0.90-0.98 (specificity of 0.76-1.0, sensitivity of 0.87-1.0) to differentiate NMOSD from MS, including all anti-aquaporin-4 protein (aAQP4)-antibody-negative patients who were untreated. CONCLUSIONS GAM composites represent a novel biomarker to reliably differentiate NMOSD from MS, including in aAQP4- NMOSD. The association of GAM with the degree of concurrent neurological impairment provides evidence for their pathogenic role, in turn suggesting them as potential drug targets in acute NMOSD.

Abstract
Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are bone marrow (BM)-derived immunosuppressive cells in the tumor microenvironment, but the mechanism of MDSC mobilization from the BM remains unclear. We investigated how BM stromal cell activation by PTH1R contributes to MDSC mobilization. PTH1R activation by parathyroid hormone (PTH) or PTH-related peptide (PTHrP), a tumor-derived counterpart, mobilized monocytic (M-) MDSCs from murine BM without increasing immunosuppressive activity. In vitro cell-binding assays demonstrated that α4β1 integrin and vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM)-1, expressed on M-MDSCs and osteoblasts, respectively, are key to M-MDSC binding to osteoblasts. Upon PTH1R activation, osteoblasts express VEGF-A and IL6, leading to Src family kinase phosphorylation in M-MDSCs. Src inhibitors suppressed PTHrP-induced MDSC mobilization, and Src activation in M-MDSCs upregulated two proteases, ADAM-17 and MMP7, leading to VCAM1 shedding and subsequent disruption of M-MDSC tethering to osteoblasts. Collectively, our data provide the molecular mechanism of M-MDSC mobilization in the bones of tumor hosts.

Abstract
Inflammation is a hallmark of the physiological response to aggressions. It is orchestrated by a plethora of molecules that detect the danger, signal intracellularly, and activate immune mechanisms to fight the threat. Understanding these processes at a level that allows to modulate their fate in a pathological context strongly relies on in vivo studies, as these can capture the complexity of the whole process and integrate the intricate interplay between the cellular and molecular actors of inflammation. Over the years, zebrafish has proven to be a well-recognized model to study immune responses linked to human physiopathology. We here provide a systematic review of the molecular effectors of inflammation known in this vertebrate and recapitulate their modes of action, as inferred from sterile or infection-based inflammatory models. We present a comprehensive analysis of their sequence, expression, and tissue distribution and summarize the tools that have been developed to study their function. We further highlight how these tools helped gain insights into the mechanisms of immune cell activation, induction, or resolution of inflammation, by uncovering downstream receptors and signaling pathways. These progresses pave the way for more refined models of inflammation, mimicking human diseases and enabling drug development using zebrafish models.

Abstract
Functional impairment of the bone marrow (BM) niche has been suggested as a major reason for prolonged cytopenia and secondary graft failure after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT). Because mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) serve as multipotent progenitors for several niche components in the BM, they might play a key role in this process. We used collagenase digested trephine biopsies to directly quantify MSCs in 73 patients before (n = 18) and/or after alloHCT (n = 65). For the first time, we demonstrate that acute graft-versus-host disease (aGvHD, n = 39) is associated with a significant decrease in MSC numbers. MSC reduction can be observed even before the clinical onset of aGvHD (n = 10). Assessing MSCs instantly after biopsy collection revealed phenotypic and functional differences depending on the occurrence of aGvHD. These differences vanished during ex vivo expansion. The MSC endotypes observed revealed an enhanced population of donor-derived classical dendritic cells type 1 and alloreactive T cells as the causing agent for compartmental inflammation and MSC damage before clinical onset of aGvHD was ascertained. In conclusion, MSCs endotypes may constitute a predisposing conductor of alloreactivity after alloHCT preceding the clinical diagnosis of aGvHD.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) transplantation is considered a suitable treatment for malignant or nonmalignant hematological diseases. This study aims to investigate the HSCs homing factors in bone marrow (BM) donors of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients following granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) injection, as well as the G-CSF effects on BM transplantation quality in these patients. To mobilize HSCs into peripheral blood, G-CSF was used for ALL patient's BM donors. For HSCs counting, CD34+ cells were evaluated in analogous and autologous donors using flow cytometry. The expression of stem cell homing factors in CD34+ cells and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were investigated using a real-time polymerase chain reaction. Finally, hematological factors after BM transplantation in ALL patients were assessed. According to our results, after G-CSF injection, the level of CD34+ HSCs was statistically increased. Besides, autologous donors showed a higher level of CD34+ cells compared to analogous donors before and after G-CSF injection. Additionally, a higher number of CD34+ HSCs was achieved in the autologous samples following G-CSF injection. Furthermore, after G-CSF injection, the expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2, MMP-9 was increased; while, stromal cell-derived factor 1, intercellular adhesion molecule-1, and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 expression were decreased. Moreover, the expression of C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4, lymphocyte function-associated antigen 1, and very late antigen-4 in CD34+ cells and PBMCs were decreased. BM transplantation on Day 90 also caused an increased level of white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets as compared to the first day; however, no statistical differences were observed in hemoglobin level. In conclusion, G-CSF by altering the expression of HSCs homing factors in ALL donors improves BM transplantation quality in ALL patients.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation has been used to treat hematopoietic diseases for over 50 years. HSCs can be isolated from bone marrow (BM), umbilical cord blood, or peripheral blood. Because of lower costs, shorter hospitalization, and faster engraftment, peripheral blood has become the predominant source of HSCs for transplantation. The major factors determining the rate of successful HSC transplantation include the degree of human leukocyte antigen matching between the donor and recipient and the number of HSCs for transplantation. Administration of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) alone or combined with plerixafor (AMD3100) are clinical used methods to promote HSC mobilization from BM to the peripheral blood for HSC transplantations. However, a significant portion of healthy donors or patients may be poor mobilizers of G-CSF, resulting in an insufficient number of HSCs for the transplantation and necessitating alternative strategies to increase the apheresis yield. The detailed mechanisms underlying G-CSF-mediated HSC mobilization remain to be elucidated. This review summarizes the current research on deciphering the mechanism of HSC mobilization.

Abstract
Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) has been widely used to mobilize bone marrow hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells for transplantation in the treatment of hematological malignancies for decades. Additionally, G-CSF is also accepted as an essential mediator in immune regulation, leading to reduced graft-versus-host disease following transplantation. Despite the important clinical roles of G-CSF, a comprehensive, unbiased, and high-resolution survey into the cellular and molecular ecosystem of the human G-CSF-primed bone marrow (G-BM) is lacking so far. Here, we employed single-cell RNA sequencing to profile hematopoietic cells in human bone marrow from two healthy donors before and after 5-day G-CSF administration. Through unbiased bioinformatics analysis, our data systematically showed the alterations in the transcriptional landscape of hematopoietic cells in G-BM, and revealed that G-CSF-induced myeloid-biased differentiation initiated from the stage of lymphoid-primed multipotent progenitors. We also illustrated the cellular and molecular basis of hyporesponsiveness of T cells and natural killer (NK) cells caused by G-CSF stimulation, including the potential direct mechanisms and indirect regulations mediated by ligand–receptor interactions. Taken together, our data extend the understanding of lymphomyeloid divergence and potential mechanisms involved in hyporesponsiveness of T and NK cells in human G-BM, which might provide basis for optimization of stem cell transplantation in hematological malignancy treatment.

Abstract
Severe traumatic injury results in a cascade of systemic changes which negatively affect normal erythropoiesis. Immediately after injury, acute blood loss leads to anemia, however, patients can remain anemic for as long as 6 months after injury. Research on the underlying mechanisms of such alterations of erythropoiesis after trauma has focused on the prolonged hypercatecholaminemia seen after trauma. Supraphysiologic elevation of catecholamines leads to an inhibitive effect on erythropoiesis. There is evidence to show that alleviation of the neuroendocrine stress response following trauma reduces these inhibitory effects. Both beta blockade and alpha-2 adrenergic receptor stimulation have demonstrated increased growth of hematopoietic progenitor cells as well as increased pro-erythropoietic cytokines after trauma. This review will describe prior research on the neuroendocrine stress response after trauma and its consequences on erythropoiesis, which offer insight into underlying mechanisms of prolonged anemia postinjury. We will then discuss the beneficial effects of adrenergic modulation to improve erythropoiesis following injury and propose future directions for the field.

Oncostatin M regulates hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) niches in the bone marrow to restrict HSC mobilization. Leukemia 2022; 36:333-347.

Abstract
We show that pro-inflammatory oncostatin M (OSM) is an important regulator of hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) niches in the bone marrow (BM). Treatment of healthy humans and mice with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) dramatically increases OSM release in blood and BM. Using mice null for the OSM receptor (OSMR) gene, we demonstrate that OSM provides a negative feed-back acting as a brake on HSPC mobilization in response to clinically relevant mobilizing molecules G-CSF and CXCR4 antagonist. Likewise, injection of a recombinant OSM molecular trap made of OSMR complex extracellular domains enhances HSC mobilization in poor mobilizing C57BL/6 and NOD.Cg-PrkdcscidIl2rgtm1Wjl/SzJ mice. Mechanistically, OSM attenuates HSC chemotactic response to CXCL12 and increases HSC homing to the BM signaling indirectly via BM endothelial and mesenchymal cells which are the only cells expressing OSMR in the BM. OSM up-regulates E-selectin expression on BM endothelial cells indirectly increasing HSC proliferation. RNA sequencing of HSCs from Osmr-/- and wild-type mice suggest that HSCs have altered cytoskeleton reorganization, energy usage and cycling in the absence of OSM signaling in niches. Therefore OSM is an important regulator of HSC niche function restraining HSC mobilization and anti-OSM therapy combined with current mobilizing regimens may improve HSPC mobilization for transplantation.

Abstract
Anemia is a significant complication of chronic inflammation and may be related to dysregulated activities among erythroblastic island (EBI) macrophages. GM-CSF was reported to be upregulated and attracted as a therapeutic target in many inflammatory diseases. Among EBIs, we found that the GM-CSF receptor is preferentially and highly expressed among EBI macrophages but not among erythroblasts. GM-CSF treatment significantly decreases human EBI formation in vitro by decreasing the adhesion molecule expression of CD163. RNA-sequence analysis suggests that GM-CSF treatment impairs the supporting function of human EBI macrophages during erythropoiesis. GM-CSF treatment also polarizes human EBI macrophages from M2-like type to M1-like type. In addition, GM-CSF decreases mouse bone marrow (BM) erythroblasts as well as EBI macrophages, leading to a reduction in EBI numbers. In defining the molecular mechanism at work, we found that GM-CSF treatment significantly decreases the adhesion molecule expression of CD163 and Vcam1 in vivo. Importantly, GM-CSF treatment also decreases the phagocytosis rate of EBI macrophages in mouse BM as well as decreases the expression of the engulfment-related molecules Mertk, Axl, and Timd4. In addition, GM-CSF treatment polarizes mouse BM EBI macrophages from M2-like type to M1-like type. Thus, we document that GM-CSF impairs EBI formation in mice and humans. Our findings support that targeting GM-CSF or reprogramming EBI macrophages might be a novel strategy to treat anemia resulting from inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) with superior reconstitution potential are reported to be enriched in the endosteal compared to central bone marrow (BM) region. To investigate whether specific factors at the endosteum may contribute to HSC potency, we screened for candidate HSC niche factors enriched in the endosteal compared to central BM regions. Together with key known HSC supporting factors Kitl and Cxcl12, we report that prostacyclin/prostaglandin I2 (PGI2 ) synthase (Ptgis) was one of the most highly enriched mRNAs (>10-fold) in endosteal compared to central BM. As PGI2 signals through receptors distinct from prostaglandin E2 (PGE2 ), we investigated functional roles for PGI2 at the endosteal niche using therapeutic PGI2 analogs, iloprost, and cicaprost. We found PGI2 analogs strongly reduced HSC differentiation in vitro. Ex vivo iloprost pulse treatment also significantly boosted long-term competitive repopulation (LT-CR) potential of HSCs upon transplantation. This was associated with increased tyrosine-phosphorylation of transducer and activator of transcription-3 (STAT3) signaling in HSCs but not altered cell cycling. In vivo, iloprost administration protected BM HSC potential from radiation or granulocyte colony-stimulating factor-induced exhaustion, and restored HSC homing potential with increased Kitl and Cxcl12 transcription in the BM. In conclusion, we propose that PGI2 is a novel HSC regulator enriched in the endosteum that promotes HSC regenerative potential following stress.

Abstract
High-dose chemotherapy (HDCT) with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation has been explored and has played an important role in the management of patients with high-risk germ cell tumors (GCTs) who failed to be cured by conventional chemotherapy. Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) collected from the peripheral blood, after appropriate pharmacologic mobilization, have largely replaced bone marrow as the principal source of HSCs in transplants. As it is currently common practice to perform tandem or multiple sequential cycles of HDCT, it is anticipated that collection of large numbers of HSCs from the peripheral blood is a prerequisite for the success of the procedure. Moreover, the CD34+ cell dose/kg of body weight infused after HDCT has proven to be a major determinant of hematopoietic engraftment, with patients who receive > 2 × 106 CD34+ cells/kg having consistent, rapid, and sustained hematopoietic recovery. However, many patients with relapsed/refractory GCTs have been exposed to multiple cycles of myelosuppressive chemotherapy, which compromises the efficacy of HSC mobilization with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor with or without chemotherapy. Therefore, alternative strategies that use novel agents in combination with traditional mobilizing regimens are required. Herein, after an overview of the mechanisms of HSCs mobilization, we review the existing literature regarding studies reporting various HSC mobilization approaches in patients with relapsed/refractory GCTs, and finally report newer experimental mobilization strategies employing novel agents that have been applied in other hematologic or solid malignancies.

Abstract
The bone marrow (BM) contains a mosaic of niches specialized in supporting different maturity stages of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells such as hematopoietic stem cells and myeloid, lymphoid, and erythroid progenitors. Recent advances in BM imaging and conditional gene knockout mice have revealed that niches are a complex network of cells of mesenchymal, endothelial, neuronal, and hematopoietic origins, together with local physicochemical parameters. Within these complex structures, phagocytes, such as neutrophils, macrophages, and dendritic cells, all of which are of hematopoietic origin, have been found to be important in regulating several niches in the BM, including hematopoietic stem cell niches, erythropoietic niches, and niches involved in endosteal bone formation. There is also increasing evidence that these macrophages have an important role in adapting hematopoiesis, erythropoiesis, and bone formation in response to inflammatory stressors and play a key part in maintaining the integrity and function of these. Likewise, there is also accumulating evidence that subsets of monocytes, macrophages, and other phagocytes contribute to the progression and response to treatment of several lymphoid malignancies such as multiple myeloma, Hodgkin lymphoma, and non-Hodgkin lymphoma, as well as lymphoblastic leukemia, and may also play a role in myelodysplastic syndrome and myeloproliferative neoplasms associated with Noonan syndrome and aplastic anemia. In this review, the potential functions of macrophages and other phagocytes in normal and pathologic niches are discussed, as are the challenges in studying BM and other tissue-resident macrophages at the molecular level.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation can be a potential cure for
hematological malignancies and some nonhematologic diseases. Hematopoietic stem
and progenitor cells (HSPCs) collected from peripheral blood after mobilization
are the primary source to provide HSC transplantation. In most of the cases,
mobilization by the cytokine granulocyte colony-stimulating factor with
chemotherapy, and in some settings, with the CXC chemokine receptor type 4
antagonist plerixafor, can achieve high yield of hematopoietic progenitor cells
(HPCs). However, adequate mobilization is not always successful in a significant
portion of donors. Research is going on to find new agents or strategies to
increase HSC mobilization. Here, we briefly review the history of HSC
transplantation, current mobilization regimens, some of the novel agents that
are under investigation for clinical practice, and our recent findings from
animal studies regarding Notch and ligand interaction as potential targets for
HSPC mobilization.

Abstract
Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are immature endothelial cells (ECs) capable of proliferating and differentiating into mature ECs. These progenitor cells migrate from bone marrow (BM) after vascular injury to ischemic areas, where they participate in the repair of injured endothelium and new blood vessel formation. EPCs also secrete a series of protective cytokines and growth factors that support cell survival and tissue regeneration. Thus, EPCs provide novel and promising potential therapies to treat vascular disease, including ischemic stroke. However, EPCs are tightly regulated during the process of vascular repair and regeneration by numerous endogenous cytokines that are associated closely with the therapeutic efficacy of the progenitor cells. The regenerative capacity of EPCs also is affected by a range of exogenous factors and drugs as well as vascular risk factors. Understanding the functional properties of EPCs and the factors related to their regenerative capacity will facilitate better use of these progenitor cells in treating vascular disease. Here, we review the current knowledge of EPCs in cerebral neovascularization and tissue regeneration after cerebral ischemia and the factors associated with their regenerative function to better understand the underlying mechanisms and provide more effective strategies for the use of EPCs in treating ischemic stroke.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPC) have both unique and common responses following hemorrhage, injury, and sepsis. HSPCs from different lineages have a distinctive response to these "stress" signals. Inflammation, via the production of inflammatory factors, including cytokines, hormones, and interferons, has been demonstrated to impact the differentiation and function of HSPCs. In response to injury, hemorrhagic shock, and sepsis, cellular phenotypic changes and altered function occur, demonstrating the rapid response and potential adaptability of bone marrow hematopoietic cells. In this review, we summarize the pathophysiology of emergency myelopoiesis and the role of myeloid-derived suppressor cells, impaired erythropoiesis, as well as the mobilization of HSPCs from the bone marrow. Finally, we discuss potential therapeutic options to optimize HSPC function after severe trauma or infection.

Abstract
Intercellular communication among immune cells is vital for the coordination of proper immune responses. Extracellular vesicles and particles (EVPs) act as messengers in intercellular communication, with important consequences for target cell and organ physiology in both health and disease. Under normal physiological conditions, immune cell-derived EVPs participate in immune responses by regulating innate and adaptive immune responses. EVPs play a major role in antigen presentation and immune activation. On the other hand, immune cell-derived EVPs exert immunosuppressive and regulatory effects. Consequently, EVPs may contribute to pathological conditions, such as autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, graft rejection, and cancer progression and metastasis. Here, we provide an overview of the role of EVPs in immune homeostasis and pathophysiology, with a particular focus on their contribution to innate and adaptive immunity and their potential use for immunotherapies.

Race/ethnicity and underlying disease influences hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell mobilization response: A single center experience. J Clin Apher 2021; 36:634-644. [PMID: 34046928 DOI: 10.1002/jca.21914] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2020] [Revised: 05/07/2021] [Accepted: 05/13/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether race/ethnicity plays a role in hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPC) mobilization in autologous donors has not been studied. We hypothesize that donor characteristic including race/ethnicity, age, sex, body mass index, and diagnostic groups influences HSPC mobilization. Diagnostic groups include healthy allogeneic donors, autologous multiple myeloma (MM) and non-MM donors. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS Here, we conducted a single-center retrospective study in 64 autologous patients and 48 allogeneic donors. Autologous donors were patients diagnosed with MM or non-MM. All donors were grouped as African American (AA), White (W), or "Other"(O). RESULTS Multivariate analysis demonstrated diagnostic group differences for CD34+ cell yields between race/ethnicity. Specifically, non-MM patients had the lowest CD34+ cell yields in AA and O, but not in W. For pre-apheresis peripheral blood (PB) CD34+ cell numbers, race/ethnicity had a significant effect both in bivariate and multivariate analyses. Non-MM patients had the lowest, and AA patients had the highest PB CD34+ cells. The results support the view that past therapies used in MM are likely more conducive of recovery of HSPC. CONCLUSIONS Our study shows that race/ethnicity and diagnostic group differences influenced CD34+ cell mobilization response across donor types. Interestingly, autologous MM donors with the aid of plerixafor displayed comparable CD34 yields to allogeneic donors. Even though both MM and non-MM donors received plerixafor, non-MM donors had significantly lower CD34 yields among AA and O donors but not in W donors. Larger studies would be required to validate the role of diagnostic groups and race/ethnicity interactions.

Bortezomib enhances G-CSF-induced hematopoietic stem cell mobilization by decreasing CXCL12 levels and increasing vascular permeability. Exp Hematol 2021; 97:21-31. [PMID: 33617894 DOI: 10.1016/j.exphem.2021.02.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2020] [Revised: 02/12/2021] [Accepted: 02/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
Bortezomib (BTZ) is known to enhance the mobilization of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) induced by granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF). However, the most effective time at which to administer BTZ to produce this enhancing effect remains debatable, and the precise mechanism underlying the effect of BTZ is poorly understood. We addressed these questions in this article by performing animal experiments. First, in agreement with previous studies, BTZ administration 12 hours before blood collection was most effective for HSPC mobilization; in contrast, BTZ administration 3 days before blood collection negatively affected HSPC harvesting. Next, in terms of the mechanism of action, G-CSF, but not BTZ, downregulated the expression of very late antigen-4 on HSPCs and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 on bone marrow (BM) stromal cells; however, intriguingly, both G-CSF and BTZ downregulated CXCL12 chemokine expression in BM. Notably, BTZ treatment also increased BM vascular permeability. These results suggest that the pro-mobilization effect of BTZ could involve the dissociation of HSPCs from BM stromal cells triggered by G-CSF, vascular hyperpermeability elicited by BTZ, and downregulation of CXCL12 concomitantly induced by G-CSF and BTZ.

Abstract
Metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is a common type of chronic liver disease characterized by excessive lipid accumulation in hepatocytes, but the pathogenesis is still unclear. Neutrophils, the most abundant immune cells in the human body, defend against pathogens and regulate the inflammatory response. Recent studies have indicated that excessive liver infiltration of neutrophils is a significant histological hallmark of MAFLD, and neutrophils and their derived granule proteins participate in different stages of MAFLD, including hepatic steatosis, inflammation, fibrosis, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Hence, in this review, we summarize the role of neutrophils in the occurrence and progression of MAFLD and provide a perspective for the clinical application of neutrophils in MAFLD diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) is a life-saving procedure used for the treatment of selected hematological malignancies, inborn errors of metabolism, and bone marrow failures. The role of neutrophils in alloHSCT has been traditionally evaluated only in the context of their ability to act as a first line of defense against infection. However, recent evidence has highlighted neutrophils as key effectors of innate and adaptive immune responses through a wide array of newly discovered functions. Accordingly, neutrophils are emerging as highly versatile cells that are able to acquire different, often opposite, functional capacities depending on the microenvironment and their differentiation status. Herein, we review the current knowledge on the multiple functions that neutrophils exhibit through the different stages of alloHSCT, from the hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) mobilization in the donor to the immunological reconstitution that occurs in the recipient following HSC infusion. We also discuss the influence exerted on neutrophils by the immunosuppressive drugs delivered in the course of alloHSCT as part of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis. Finally, the potential involvement of neutrophils in alloHSCT-related complications, such as transplant-associated thrombotic microangiopathy (TA-TMA), acute and chronic GVHD, and cytomegalovirus (CMV) reactivation, is also discussed. Based on the data reviewed herein, the role played by neutrophils in alloHSCT is far greater than a simple antimicrobial role. However, much remains to be investigated in terms of the potential functions that neutrophils might exert during a highly complex procedure such as alloHSCT.

Abstract
Emerging cellular therapies require the collection of peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) by apheresis for in vitro manipulation to accomplish gene addition or gene editing. These therapies require relatively large numbers of HSCs within a short time frame to generate an efficacious therapeutic product. This review focuses on the principal factors that affect collection outcomes, especially relevant to gene therapy for sickle cell disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We investigated the cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) Vascular CAM 1 (VCAM-1) and Activated Leucocyte CAM (ALCAM) as urinary biomarkers in SLE patients with and without renal involvement. METHODS Female SLE patients (n = 111) and non-SLE population-based controls (n = 99) were enrolled. We measured renal activity using the renal domain of the BILAG index and urine (U) and plasma (P) concentrations of soluble (s)VCAM 1 and U-sALCAM using ELISA. U-sCAM levels were next corrected by U-creatinine. RESULTS U-sVCAM-1/creatinine and U-sALCAM/creatinine ratios were higher in SLE patients vs non-SLE controls (P < 0.001 for both), as well as in patients with active/low-active (BILAG A-C; n = 11) vs quiescent (BILAG D; n = 19) LN (P = 0.023 and P = 0.001, respectively). U-sALCAM/creatinine but not U-sVCAM-1/creatinine ratios were higher in patients with nephritis history (BILAG A-D; n = 30) vs non-renal SLE (BILAG E; n = 79) (P = 0.014). Patients with baseline U-sVCAM-1/creatinine ratios ≥75th percentile showed a 23-fold increased risk of a deterioration in estimated glomerular filtration rate by ≥25% during a 10-year follow-up (odds ratio: 22.9; 95% CI: 2.8, 189.2; P = 0.004); this association remained significant after adjustments for age, disease duration and organ damage. Traditional markers including anti-dsDNA antibodies did not predict this outcome. CONCLUSION While high U-sVCAM-1 levels appear to reflect SLE disease activity, sALCAM might have particular importance in renal SLE. Both U-sVCAM-1 and U-sALCAM showed ability to distinguish SLE patients with active renal involvement from patients with quiescent or no prior nephritis. High U-sVCAM-1 levels may indicate patients at increased risk for long-term renal function loss.

Abstract
Adoptive T cell therapy (ACT) in combination with lymphodepleting chemotherapy is an effective strategy to induce the eradication of cancer, providing long-term regressions in patients. However, only a minority of patients that receive ACT with tumor-specific T cells exhibit durable benefit. Thus, there is an urgent need to characterize mechanisms of resistance and define strategies to alleviate immunosuppression in the context of ACT in cancer. This article reviews the importance of lymphodepleting regimens in promoting the optimal engraftment and expansion of T cells in hosts after adoptive transfer. In addition, we discuss the role of concomitant immunosuppression and the accumulation of myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) during immune recovery after lymphodepleting regimens and mobilization regimens.

Abstract
Functional roles of neutrophil elastase (NE) have not been examined in distinct steps of the metastatic cascade. NE, delivered to primary tumors as a purified enzyme or within intact neutrophils or neutrophil granule content, enhanced human tumor cell intravasation and subsequent dissemination via NE-mediated formation of dilated intratumoral vasculature. These effects depended on picomole range of NE activity, sensitive to its natural inhibitor, α1PI. In Elane-negative mice, the lack of NE decreased lung retention of human tumor cells in experimental metastasis. Furthermore, NE was essential for spontaneous metastasis of murine carcinoma cells in a syngeneic orthotopic model of oral cancer. NE also induced tumor cell survival and migration via Src/PI3K-dependent activation of Akt signaling, vital for tumor cell dissemination in vivo. Together, our findings implicate NE, a potent host enzyme specific for first-responding innate immune cells, as directly involved in early metastatic events and a potential target for therapeutic intervention. NE enhances human carcinoma cell intravasation and spontaneous metastasis NE mediates formation of dilated intratumoral vasculature supporting cell intravasation NE-KO mice exhibit decreased lung retention and spontaneous metastasis of tumor cells NE induces tumor cell survival and migration via activation of Src/PI3K/Akt pathway

Neurogenic Heterotopic Ossifications Develop Independently of Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor and Neutrophils. J Bone Miner Res 2020; 35:2242-2251.

Abstract
Neurogenic heterotopic ossifications (NHOs) are incapacitating heterotopic bones in periarticular muscles that frequently develop following traumatic brain or spinal cord injuries (SCI). Using our unique model of SCI-induced NHO, we have previously established that mononucleated phagocytes infiltrating injured muscles are required to trigger NHO via the persistent release of the pro-inflammatory cytokine oncostatin M (OSM). Because neutrophils are also a major source of OSM, we investigated whether neutrophils also play a role in NHO development after SCI. We now show that surgery transiently increased granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) levels in blood of operated mice, and that G-CSF receptor mRNA is expressed in the hamstrings of mice developing NHO. However, mice defective for the G-CSF receptor gene Csf3r, which are neutropenic, have unaltered NHO development after SCI compared to C57BL/6 control mice. Because the administration of recombinant human G-CSF (rhG-CSF) has been trialed after SCI to increase neuroprotection and neuronal regeneration and has been shown to suppress osteoblast function at the endosteum of skeletal bones in human and mice, we investigated the impact of a 7-day rhG-CSF treatment on NHO development. rhG-CSF treatment significantly increased neutrophils in the blood, bone marrow, and injured muscles. However, there was no change in NHO development compared to saline-treated controls. Overall, our results establish that unlike monocytes/macrophages, neutrophils are dispensable for NHO development following SCI, and rhG-CSF treatment post-SCI does not impact NHO development. Therefore, G-CSF treatment to promote neuroregeneration is unlikely to adversely promote or affect NHO development in SCI patients. © 2020 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Abstract
Stroma-leukemia interactions mediated by CXCR4, CD44, VLA4, and their respective ligands contribute to therapy resistance in FLT3-ITD-mutated acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). We conducted a phase 1 study with the combination of sorafenib (a FLT3-ITD inhibitor), plerixafor (a SDF-1/CXCR4 inhibitor), and G-CSF (that cleaves SDF-1, CD44, and VLA4). Twenty-eight patients with relapsed/refractory FLT3-ITD-mutated AML were enrolled from December 2010 to December 2013 at three dose levels of sorafenib (400, 600, and 800 mg twice daily) and G-CSF and plerixafor were administered every other day for seven doses starting on day one. Sorafenib 800 mg twice daily was selected for the expansion phase. While no dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) were encountered in the four-week DLT window, hand-foot syndrome and rash were seen beyond the DLT window, which required dose reductions in most patients. The response rate was 36% (complete response (CR) = 4, complete remission with incomplete platelet recovery (CRp) = 4, complete remission with incomplete hematologic recovery (CRi) = 1, and partial response (PR) = 1) for the intention to treat population. Treatment resulted in 58.4 and 47 mean fold mobilization of blasts and CD34 /38- stem/progenitor cells, respectively, to the circulation. Expression of the adhesion molecules CXCR4, CD44, and VLA4 on circulating leukemia cells correlated negatively with the mobilization of CD34+/38-, CD34+/38-/123+ "progenitor" cells (all P ≤ .002). Mass cytometry analysis of sequential samples from two patients demonstrated resistance emerging early on from sub-clones with persistent Akt and/or ERK signaling. In conclusion, the strategy of combined inhibition of FLT3 kinase and stromal adhesive interactions has promising activity in relapsed/refractory, FLT3-ITD-mutated AML, which warrants further evaluation in the front-line setting.

Amelioration of cyclophosphamide-induced myelosuppression during treatment to rats with breast cancer through low-intensity pulsed ultrasound. Biosci Rep 2020; 40:226432.

Abstract
To investigate the alleviating effects of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) on myelosuppression of Sprague–Dawley rats with breast cancer induced by cyclophosphamide (CTX). Breast cancer in rats was triggered by intragastric gavage with 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (150 mg/kg). Then, the rats with breast cancer were randomly allocated to the LIPUS group (n=50) and the control group (n=50). The LIPUS group was injected intraperitoneally with CTX (50 mg/kg) for 4 consecutive days and underwent LIPUS treatment at femoral metaphysis 20 min per day from the first day of injection for 7 consecutive days. The control group was injected with CTX (50 mg/kg) and treated with LIPUS without energy output. Blood, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction, Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) staining, and scanning electron microscopy were applied to detect the changes. The results indicated that LIPUS significantly promoted the proliferation of bone marrow nucleated cells, white blood cells (WBCs), IgA, IgG, and IgM in the peripheral blood (P<0.05) without the damage to liver and kidney function simultaneously. The mechanisms may result from the LIPUS alleviation effect on bone marrow hematopoietic function through regulating cytokines such as LIPUS can increase the expression of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), stem cell factor, transforming growth factor-β, and intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1, meanwhile LIPUS will decrease the expression of interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-α, and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1. LIPUS has potential to be a new adjuvant therapy method in clinic for ameliorating chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression.

Abstract
Hematopoiesis is a complex and intricate process that aims to replenish blood components in a constant fashion. It is orchestrated mostly by hematopoietic progenitor cells (hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs)) that are capable of self-renewal and differentiation. These cells can originate other cell subtypes that are responsible for maintaining vital functions, mediate innate and adaptive immune responses, provide tissues with oxygen, and control coagulation. Hematopoiesis in adults takes place in the bone marrow, which is endowed with an extensive vasculature conferring an intense flow of cells. A myriad of cell subtypes can be found in the bone marrow at different levels of activation, being also under constant action of an extensive amount of diverse chemical mediators and enzymatic systems. Bone marrow platelets, mature erythrocytes and leukocytes are delivered into the bloodstream readily available to meet body demands. Leukocytes circulate and reach different tissues, returning or not returning to the bloodstream. Senescent leukocytes, specially granulocytes, return to the bone marrow to be phagocytized by macrophages, restarting granulopoiesis. The constant high production and delivery of cells into the bloodstream, alongside the fact that blood cells can also circulate between tissues, makes the hematopoietic system a prime target for toxic agents to act upon, making the understanding of the bone marrow microenvironment vital for both toxicological sciences and risk assessment. Environmental and occupational pollutants, therapeutic molecules, drugs of abuse, and even nutritional status can directly affect progenitor cells at their differentiation and maturation stages, altering behavior and function of blood compounds and resulting in impaired immune responses, anemias, leukemias, and blood coagulation disturbances. This review aims to describe the most recently investigated molecular and cellular toxicity mechanisms of current major environmental pollutants on hematopoiesis in the bone marrow.

Abstract
Extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH) is the expansion and differentiation of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells outside of the bone marrow. In postnatal life, as a compensatory mechanism for ineffective hematopoiesis of the bone marrow, pathological EMH is triggered by hematopoietic disorders, insufficient hematopoietic compensation, and other pathological stress conditions, such as infection, advanced tumors, anemia, and metabolic stress. Pathological EMH has been reported in many organs, and the sites of pathological EMH may be related to reactivation of the embryonic hematopoietic structure in these organs. As a double-edged sword (blood and immune cell supplementation as well as clinical complications), pathological EMH has been widely studied in recent years. In particular, pathological EMH induced by late-stage tumors contributes to tumor immunosuppression. Thus, a deeper understanding of the mechanism of pathological EMH may be conducive to the development of therapies against the pathological processes that induce EMH. This article reviews the recent progress of research on the cellular and molecular mechanisms of pathological EMH in specific diseases.

Abstract
Adoptive T cell therapy (ACT) in combination with lymphodepleting chemotherapy is an effective strategy to induce the eradication of tumors, providing long-term regression in cancer patients. Despite that lymphodepleting regimens condition the host for optimal engraftment and expansion of adoptively transferred T cells, lymphodepletion concomitantly promotes immunosuppression during the course of endogenous immune recovery. In this study, we have identified that lymphodepleting chemotherapy initiates the mobilization of hematopoietic progenitor cells that differentiate to immunosuppressive myeloid cells, leading to a dramatic increase of peripheral myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs). In melanoma and lung cancer patients, MDSCs rapidly expanded in the periphery within 1 week after completion of a lymphodepleting regimen and infusion of autologous tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs). This expansion was associated with disease progression, poor survival, and reduced TIL persistence in melanoma patients. We demonstrated that the interleukin 6 (IL-6)-driven differentiation of mobilized hematopoietic progenitor cells promoted the survival and immunosuppressive capacity of post-lymphodepletion MDSCs. Furthermore, the genetic abrogation or therapeutic inhibition of IL-6 in mouse models enhanced host survival and reduced tumor growth in mice that received ACT. Thus, the expansion of MDSCs in response to lymphodepleting chemotherapy may contribute to ACT failure, and targeting myeloid-mediated immunosuppression may support anti-tumor immune responses.

Abstract
The alkylating agent cyclophosphamide has been used in the treatment of multiple myeloma for over 60 years. At low doses, cyclophosphamide also has significant immunomodulatory activity, which can be used to modify the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment in order to augment responses to existing therapies. Immune-mediated therapies are becoming more widespread in modern approaches to myeloma treatment. In this review, we discuss the effects cyclophosphamide has on the immune system, and how it can be used synergistically with other treatment modalities including the immunomodulatory agents, monoclonal antibodies and cellular therapies.

Abstract
Grasp55 is a ubiquitous Golgi stacking protein involved in autophagy, protein trafficking, and glucose deprivation sensing. The function of Grasp55 in protein trafficking has been attributed to its PDZ-mediated interaction with the C-terminal PDZ-binding motifs of protein cargos. We have recently shown that such an interaction occurs between Grasp55 and the adhesion molecule Jam-C, which plays a central role in stemness maintenance of hematopoietic and spermatogenic cells. Accordingly, we have found that Grasp55-deficient mice suffer from spermatogenesis defects similar to Jam-C knockout mice. However, whether Grasp55 is involved in the maintenance of immunohematopoietic homeostasis through regulation of protein transport and Jam-C expression remains unknown. In this study, we show that Grasp55 deficiency does not affect hematopoietic stem cell differentiation, engraftment, or mobilization, which are known to depend on expression of Grasp55-dependent protein cargos. In contrast, using an Myc-dependent leukemic model addicted to autophagy, we show that knockdown of Grasp55 in leukemic cells reduces spleen and bone marrow tumor burden upon i.v. leukemic engraftment. This is not due to reduced homing of Grasp55-deficient cells to these organs but to increased spontaneous apoptosis of Grasp55-deficient leukemic cells correlated with increased sensitivity of the cells to glucose deprivation. These results show that Grasp55 plays a role in Myc-transformed hematopoietic cells but not in normal hematopoietic cells in vivo.

Abstract
An essential and influential first step in all cellular therapies is collecting donor or patient cells. In hematopoietic progenitor cell transplantation, autologous or allogeneic hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) are collected from either the bone marrow or the peripheral blood. Peripheral blood collection by apheresis requires mobilization with chemotherapy, granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF), plerixafor, or a combination. The modalities of mobilization and collection each carry a unique set of risks and benefits for both the donor and the recipient. In other types of cell therapy, most notably chimeric antigen receptor T cells, lymphocytes or monocytes are collected from the peripheral blood. The risks of collecting these cells by apheresis are similar to HPCs, but less is known about the composition, timing and qualitative cell characteristics which contribute to an optimal collection. Here, we review the mobilization and collection of HPCs and the collection of lymphocytes and monocytes. Donor safety is of primary importance when collecting material for any type of cell therapy. Every aspect of mobilization and collection can be studied and potentially optimized to improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
Cancer and autoimmune diseases are the two devastating conditions that together constitute a leading health problem worldwide. The rising burden of these disorders in the developing world demands a multifaceted approach to address the challenges it poses. Understanding the root causes and specific molecular mechanisms by which the progression of the diseases takes place is need of the hour. A strong inflammatory background and common developmental pathways, such as activation of immune cells, proliferation, increased cell survival and migration which are controlled by growth factors and inflammatory cytokines have been considered as the critical culprits in the progression and complications of these disorders. Enzymes are the potential immune modulators which regulate various inflammatory events and can break the circulating immune complexes via macrophages production. In the current manuscript, we have uncovered the possible role of proteolytic enzymes in the pathogenesis and progression of cancer and autoimmune diseases. In the light of the available scientific literature, we advocate in-depth comprehensive studies which will shed light towards the role of proteolytic enzymes in the modulation of inflammatory responses in cancer and autoimmune diseases together.

Abstract
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease of complex and still poorly understood etiology. Loss of upper and lower motoneurons results in death within few years after diagnosis. Recent studies have proposed neuroprotective and disease-slowing effects of granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) treatment in ALS mouse models as well as humans. In this study, six ALS patients were monitored up to 3.5 years during continuous high-dose G-CSF administration. Repetitive analyses were performed including blood count parameters, CD34+ hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) and colony forming cell (CFC) counts, serum cytokine levels and leukocyte telomere length. We demonstrate that continuous G-CSF therapy was well tolerated and safe resulting in only mild adverse events during the observation period. However, no mobilization of CD34+ HSPC was detected as compared to baseline values. CFC mobilization was equally low and even a decrease of myeloid precursors was observed in some patients. Assessment of telomere length within ALS patients' leukocytes revealed that G-CSF did not significantly shorten telomeres, while those of ALS patients were shorter compared to age-matched healthy controls, irrespective of G-CSF treatment. During G-CSF stimulation, TNF-alpha, CRP, IL-16, sVCAM-1, sICAM-1, Tie-2 and VEGF were significantly increased in serum whereas MCP-1 levels decreased. In conclusion, our data show that continuous G-CSF treatment fails to increase circulating CD34+ HSPC in ALS patients. Cytokine profiles revealed G-CSF-mediated immunomodulatory and proteolytic effects. Interestingly, despite intense G-CSF stimulation, telomere length was not significantly shortened.

Abstract
Peripheral blood hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs), mobilized by granulocyte colony‐stimulating factor, are widely used as a source for both autologous and allogeneic stem cell transplantation. The use of mobilized HSPCs has several advantages over traditional bone marrow–derived HSPCs, including a less invasive harvesting process for the donor, higher HSPC yields, and faster hematopoietic reconstitution in the recipient. For years, the mechanisms by which cytokines and other agents mobilize HSPCs from the bone marrow were not fully understood. The field of stem cell mobilization research has advanced significantly over the past decade, with major breakthroughs in the elucidation of the complex mechanisms that underlie stem cell mobilization. In this review, we provide an overview of the events that underlie HSPC mobilization and address the relevant cellular and molecular components of the bone marrow niche. Furthermore, current and future mobilizing agents will be discussed.

Abstract
In normoxia, hypoxia-inducible transcription factors (HIFs) are rapidly degraded within the cytoplasm as a consequence of their prolyl hydroxylation by oxygen-dependent prolyl hydroxylase domain (PHD) enzymes. We have previously shown that hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) require HIF-1 for effective mobilization in response to granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) and CXCR4 antagonist AMD3100/plerixafor. Conversely, HIF PHD inhibitors that stabilize HIF-1 protein in vivo enhance HSPC mobilization in response to G-CSF or AMD3100 in a cell-intrinsic manner. We now show that extrinsic mechanisms involving vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR2), via bone marrow (BM) endothelial cells, are also at play. PTK787/vatalanib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor selective for VEGFR1 and VEGFR2, and neutralizing anti-VEGFR2 monoclonal antibody DC101 blocked enhancement of HSPC mobilization by FG-4497. VEGFR2 was absent on mesenchymal and hematopoietic cells and was detected only in Sca1+ endothelial cells in the BM. We propose that HIF PHD inhibitor FG-4497 enhances HSPC mobilization by stabilizing HIF-1α in HSPCs as previously demonstrated, as well as by activating VEGFR2 signaling in BM endothelial cells, which facilitates HSPC egress from the BM into the circulation.

Abstract
During cytokine- or chemotherapy-induced hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) mobilization, a highly proteolytic microenvironment can be observed in the bone marrow that has a strong influence on adhesive and chemotactic interactions of HSC with their niches. The increase of proteases during mobilization goes along with a decrease of endogenous protease inhibitors. Prominent members of the proteases involved in HSC mobilization belong to the families of matrix metalloproteinases and cathepsins, which are able to degrade chemokines/cytokines, extracellular matrix components, and membrane-bound adhesion receptors. To determine the functional activity of different proteolytic enzymes, zymographic analyses with different substrates and pH conditions can be employed. An involvement of cysteine cathepsins can be determined by the "active site labeling" technique using a modified inhibitor irreversibly binding to the active center of the enzymes. Intact or degraded chemokines and cytokines, which fall into the range between 1000 and 20,000 Da, can readily be detected by MALDI-TOF analysis. These three methods can help to detect proteolytic activities directly involved in the mobilization process.

Abstract
Distinct subsets of resident tissue macrophages are important in hematopoietic stem cell niche homeostasis and erythropoiesis. We used a myeloid reporter gene (Csf1r-eGFP) to dissect the persistence of bone marrow and splenic macrophage subsets following lethal irradiation and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in a mouse model. Multiple recipient bone marrow and splenic macrophage subsets survived after autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with organ-specific persistence kinetics. Short-term persistence (5 weeks) of recipient resident macrophages in spleen paralleled the duration of extramedullary hematopoiesis. In bone marrow, radiation-resistant recipient CD169+ resident macrophages and erythroid-island macrophages self-repopulated long-term after transplantation via autonomous cell division. Posttransplant peak expansion of recipient CD169+ resident macrophage number in bone marrow aligned with the persistent engraftment of phenotypic long-term reconstituting hematopoietic stem cells within bone marrow. Selective depletion of recipient CD169+ macrophages significantly compromised the engraftment of phenotypic long-term reconstituting hematopoietic stem cells and consequently impaired hematopoietic reconstitution. Recipient bone marrow resident macrophages are essential for optimal hematopoietic stem cell transplantation outcomes and could be an important consideration in the development of pretransplant conditioning therapies and/or chemoresistance approaches.

Abstract
Glioblastoma multiforme is the most common and aggressive primary brain tumor, with an extremely poor prognosis. The lack of detailed knowledge about the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in glioblastoma development restricts the design of efficient therapies. A recent study using state-of-art technologies explores the role of pericytes in the glioblastoma microenvironment. Glioblastoma-activated pericytes develop an immunosuppressive phenotype, reducing T-cell activation through the induction of an anti-inflammatory response. Strikingly, pericytes support glioblastoma growth in vitro and in vivo. Here, we describe succinctly the results and implications of the findings reported in pericytes' and glioblastomas' biology. The emerging knowledge from this study will be essential for the treatment of brain tumors.

Abstract
Background Cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) expressed on hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs), endothelial cells, and stromal cells play a pivotal role in the mobilization of CD34+ cells. Herein, we conducted a non-randomized peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) mobilization study aimed to compare the potential differences in the expressions of several CAMs and chemokines on CD34+ cells obtained from bone marrow aspirate before and after HPC mobilization from patients with hematologic malignancies and healthy donors. Methods Three-color cytofluorometric analysis was used to compare the expressions of CAMs and chemokines in the bone marrow before and after mobilization. Results For all studied groups, CAM expression among those with good and poor yields of CD34+ cells was significantly correlated with VCAM-1 (P=0.007), CD44 (P=0.027), and VLA-4 (P=0.014) expressions. VCAM-1 (P=0.001), FLT-3 (P=0.001), CD44 (P=0.011), VLA-4 (P=0.001), and LFA-1 (P=0.001) expressions were higher before HPC mobilization than after HPC mobilization. By contrast, the expression of CXCR4 significantly varied before and after mobilization only among those with successful PBSC mobilization (P=0.002). Conclusion We attempted to identify particular aspects of CAMs involved in CD34+ cell mobilization, which is a highly complex mechanism that involves adhesion molecules and matrix metalloproteases. The mechanism by which CD34+ cell mobilization is activated through proteolytic enzymes is not fully understood. We believe that CXCR4, VLA-4, CD44, and VCAM-1 are the most important molecules implicated in HPC mobilization, particularly because they show a correlation with the yield of CD34+ cells collected via large volume leukapheresis.
