RESUMEN
Immune system and bone marrow stromal cells play an important role in maintaining normal hematopoiesis. Lymphoid neoplasia disturbs not only development of immune cells, but other immune response mechanisms as well. Multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) of the bone marrow are involved in immune response regulation through both intercellular interactions and secretion of various cytokines. In hematological malignancies, the bone marrow stromal microenvironment, including MSCs, is altered. Aim of this study was to describe the differences of MSCs' immunological function in the patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). In ALL, malignant cells arise from the early precursor cells localized in bone marrow, while in DLBCL they arise from more differentiated B-cells. In this study, only the DLBCL patients without bone marrow involvement were included. Growth parameters, surface marker expression, genes of interest expression, and secretion pattern of bone marrow MSCs from the patients with ALL and DLBCL at the onset of the disease and in remission were studied. MSCs from the healthy donors of corresponding ages were used as controls. It has been shown that concentration of MSCs in the bone marrow of the patients with ALL is reduced at the onset of the disease and is restored upon reaching remission; in the patients with DLBCL this parameter does not change. Proliferative capacity of MSCs did not change in the patients with ALL; however, the cells of the DLBCL patients both at the onset and in remission proliferated significantly faster than those from the donors. Expression of the membrane surface markers and expression of the genes important for differentiation, immunological status maintenance, and cytokine secretion differed significantly in the MSCs of the patients from those of the healthy donors and depended on nosology of the disease. Secretomes of the MSCs varied greatly; a number of proteins associated with immune response regulation, differentiation, and maintenance of hematopoietic stem cells were depleted in the secretomes of the cells from the patients. Lymphoid neoplasia leads to dramatic changes in the functional immunological status of MSCs.

Multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are an object of intense investigation due to their therapeutic potential. MSCs have been well studied in vitro, while their fate after implantation in vivo has been poorly analyzed. We studied the properties of MSCs from the bone marrow (BM-MSC) before and after implantation under the renal capsule using a mini pig model. Autologous BM-MSCs were implanted under the kidney capsule. After 2.5 months, ectopic foci containing bones, foci of ectopic hematopoiesis, bone marrow stromal cells and muscle cells formed. Small pieces of the implant were cultivated as a whole. The cells that migrated out from these implants were cultured, cloned, analyzed and were proven to meet the most of criteria for MSCs, therefore, they are designated as MSCs from the implant-IM-MSCs. The IM-MSC population demonstrated high proliferative potential, similar to BM-MSCs. IM-MSC clones did not respond to adipogenic differentiation inductors: 33% of clones did not differentiate, and 67% differentiated toward an osteogenic lineage. The BM-MSCs revealed functional heterogeneity after implantation under the renal capsule. The BM-MSC population consists of mesenchymal precursor cells of various degrees of differentiation, including stem cells. These newly discovered properties of mini pig BM-MSCs reveal new possibilities in terms of their manipulation.

The properties of bone marrow (BM)-derived multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are altered in the patients with the diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) without BM involvement. It was suggested that plasma from the patients contains soluble factors that affect MSCs. Plasma and BM-derived MSCs from the DLBCL patients at the onset of the disease and one month after the end of treatment were studied. Concentration of the plasma cytokines and gene expression in the MSCs were evaluated by the Bio-Plex Pro Human Cytokine Panel kit to measure 27 analytes and real-time PCR. Plasma and MSCs from the healthy donors were used as controls. Analysis of cytokines in the plasma from healthy donors and patients before and one month after the end of treatment revealed significant differences in the concentration of 14 out of 27 cytokines. Correlations between the levels of secreted cytokines were altered in the plasma from patients indicating that the immune response regulation was disturbed. Cultivation of the MSCs from the healthy donors in the medium supplemented with the plasma from patients led to the changes in the MSC properties, similar to those observed in the MSCs from patients. The BM-derived MSCs were shown to participate in the humoral changes occurring in the DLBCL patients. For the first time, it was shown that the precursors of the stromal microenvironment - multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells - are altered in the patients with DLBCL without bone marrow involvement due to the humoral effect of the tumor and the response of organism to it. Comprehensive analysis of the results shows that, when remission is achieved in the patients with DLBCL, composition of the plasma cytokines normalizes, but does not reach the level observed in the healthy donors. The discovery of a new aspect of the effect of the tumor B-cells on the organism could help to reveal general regularities of the humoral effect of various tumors on the bone marrow stromal cells.

Multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) participate in the formation of bone marrow niches for hematopoietic stem cells. Donor MSCs can serve as a source of recovery for niches in patients with graft failure (GF) after allogeneic bone marrow (BM) transplantation. Since only few MSCs reach the BM after intravenous injection, MSCs were implanted into the iliac spine. For 8 patients with GF after allo-BMT, another hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with simultaneous implantation of MSCs from their respective donors into cancellous bone was performed. BM was aspirated from the iliac crest of these patients at 1-2, 4-5, and 9 months after the intraosseous injection of donor MSCs. Patients' MSCs were cultivated, and chimerism was determined. In 6 out of 8 patients, donor hematopoiesis was restored. Donor cells (9.4 ± 3.3%) were detected among MSCs. Thus, implanted MSCs remain localized at the site of administration and do not lose the ability to proliferate. These results suggest that MSCs could participate in the restoration of niches for donor hematopoietic cells or have an immunomodulatory effect, preventing repeated rejection of the graft. Perhaps, intraosseous implantation of MSCs contributes to the success of the second transplantation of hematopoietic stem cells and patient survival.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are used for prophylaxis of acute graft-versus-host disease (aGvHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT). Not all samples of MSC are efficient for aGvHD prevention. The suitability of MSCs for aGvHD prophylaxis was studied. METHODS: MSCs were derived from the bone marrow (BM) of HCT donor and cultivated for no more than three passages. The characteristics of donor BM samples including colony-forming unit fibroblast (CFU-F) concentration, growth parameters of MSCs, and the relative expression levels (REL) of different genes were analyzed. MSCs were injected intravenously precisely at the moment of blood cell reconstitution. RESULTS: MSCs infusion induced a significant threefold decrease in aGvHD development and improved overall survival compared with the standard prophylaxis group. In ineffective MSC samples (9.4%), a significant decrease in total cell production and the REL of CSF1, FGFR1, and PDGFRB was observed. In all studied BM samples, the cumulative MSC production and CFU-F concentrations decreased with age. The expression levels of FGFR2, PPARG, and VEGF differed by age. CONCLUSIONS: A universal single indicator for the prediction of MSC eligibility for aGvHD prophylaxis was not identified. A multiparameter mathematical model for selecting MSC samples effective for the prevention of aGvHD was proposed.

Multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MMSCs) are a heterogeneous population consisting of cells with a distinct proliferative potential. The aim of this study was to define clonal composition in MMSCs and trace the dynamics of individual clones in MMSC subpopulations with different proliferative potentials during the process of cultivation. The investigation was performed at single-cell level using genetically marked cells. Specifically, human bone marrow MMSCs were infected with a lentiviral vector-bearing marker gene. Integration site analysis was performed for clones at each passage by ligation-mediated polymerase chain reaction and Southern blot hybridization. Sibling connections between clones and clonal composition of MMSC culture at each passage were revealed. The MMSC population contained multiple, different, mainly small, clones. It was found that large long-living clones with a high, but limited proliferative potential could be detected rarely in MMSCs population. These data suggest that the human MMSC population does not fit the "stem cell" criteria, however, MMSCs may contain a subpopulation of large clones with a high proliferative potential.
