Efficient vector transduction of hematopoietic stem cells is a
requirement for successful gene therapy of hematologic disorders. We
asked whether human umbilical cord blood
CD34+CD38lo nonobese diabetic/severe
combined immunodeficiency (NOD/SCID) repopulating cells (SRCs) could be
efficiently transduced using lentiviral vectors, with a particular
focus on the average number of vector copies integrating into these
primitive progenitor cells. Mouse bone marrow was analyzed by
fluorescence-activated cell-sorter scanner and by
semiquantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to determine
the transduction efficiency into SRCs. Lentiviral vector transduction
resulted in an average of 22% (range, 3%-90%) of the human cells
expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP), however, multiple
vector copies were present in human hematopoietic cells, with an
average of 5.6 ± 3.3 (n = 12) copies per transduced cell. To
confirm the ability of lentiviral vectors to integrate multiple
vector copies into SRCs, linear amplification mediated (LAM)-PCR was
used to analyze the integration site profile of a selected mouse
showing low-level engraftment and virtually all human cells expressing
GFP. Individually picked granulocyte macrophage colony-forming
unit colonies derived from the bone marrow of this mouse were
analyzed and shown to have the same 5 vector integrants within each
colony. Interestingly, one integration site of the 5 that were
sequenced in this mouse was located in a known tumor-suppressor gene,
BRCA1. Therefore, these findings demonstrate the ability of
lentiviral vectors to transduce multiple copies into a subset of
NOD/SCID repopulating cells. While this is efficient in terms of
transduction and transgene expression, it may increase the risk of
insertional mutagenesis.
