| Abstract | Background Ex vivo haematopoietic stem/progenitor cell (HSPCs) expansion constitutes an important area of research, and has the potential to improve access to umbilical cord blood (UCB) as a source of stem cells for haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The ability to improve stem cell dose and thereby reduce delayed engraftment times, which has plagued the use of UCB as a stem cell source since inception, is a recognised advantage. The extent to which cluster of differentiation (CD)34 sub-populations are affected by expansion with StemRegenin1 (SR1), and whether a particular subtype may account for better engraftment than others, is currently unknown. The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of SR1-induced HSPC expansion on CD34+ immunophenotypic subsets and gene expression profiles. Methods UCB-derived CD34+ HSPCs were characterised before (D0) and after expansion (D7) with SR1 using an extensive immunophenotypic panel. In addition, gene expression was assessed and differentially expressed genes were categorised into biological processes. Results A dose-dependent increase in the number of CD34+ HSPCs was observed with SR1 treatment, and unbiased and extensive HSPC immunophenotyping proved to be a powerful tool in identifying unique sub-populations within the HSPC repertoire. In this regard, we found that SR1 promotes the emergence of HSPC subsets which may aid engraftment post expansion. In addition, we observed that SR1 has a minimal effect on the transcriptome of 7-day expanded CD34+ HSPCs when compared to cells expanded without SR1, with only two genes being downregulated in the former. Conclusion This study revealed that SR1 selects for potentially novel immunophenotypic HSPC subsets post expansion and has a minimal effect on the transcriptome of 7-day expanded HSPCs when compared to vehicle controls. Whether these distinct immunophenotypic sub-populations possess greater engraftment capacity remains to be tested in animal models. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
