Long- and short-lived murine hematopoietic stem cell clones individually identified with retroviral integration markers

B Capel, RG Hawley and B Mintz

Institute for Cancer Research, Fox Chase Cancer Center, Philadelphia, PA 19111.

The proliferative longevity of totipotent hematopoietic stem cells (THSC) is a limiting factor in normal hematopoiesis and in therapy by cell- or gene-replacement, but has not yet been ascertained. We have followed the long-term fate of individual clones of mouse THSC from fetal liver or adult bone marrow, after labeling in culture, followed by engraftment and serial transplantation in unirradiated W/Wv-C57BL/6 hosts. The ancestor cell of each clone and its mitotic progeny were uniquely identifiable retrospectively by the DNA integration pattern experimentally produced by replication-incompetent recombinant murine retroviruses. These viruses provided physiologically neutral markers. The marked clones proved to be derived from THSC, based on their contributions to a wide array of myeloid and lymphoid blood lineages in the hosts. The label also identified the target cells as the population displaying clonal succession. The various labeled stem cell clones proliferated for substantially different periods of time. The longest observed clone endured, after the original cell was marked, for at least 2 1/2 years--the equivalent of a mouse's lifetime. However, the results suggest that THSC clones are not all long-lived and that even the longest-lived ones may not be potentially immortal. Thus, the unpredictable lifespan of any given THSC clone indicates the desirability of introducing multiple clones in therapeutic transplants.
