Separation of hematopoietic stem cells into two populations and their characterization

Two populations of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) in mouse bone marrow (BM) are defined on the basis of the presence or absence of interleukin- 3 (IL-3) receptor-associated antigen (IL-3RAA). HSC were purified by depletion of mature lymphoid-lineage cells followed by collection of the low-density fraction and sorting of wheat germ agglutinin-binding (WGA+) cells using a fluorescein-activated cell sorter. WGA+ cells were further separated into two populations (IL-3RAA+/WGA+ and IL-3RAA- /WGA+) by a monoclonal antibody (MoAb) against IL-3RAA. IL-3RAA+/WGA+ cells formed CFU-S on day 8; this population consisted mainly of cells in the cycling phase. IL-3RAA-/WGA+ cells form CFU-S on day 12; this population consisted mainly of dormant cells (cells in the G0 phase). When two populations obtained from C3H/HeN mice were injected into lethally irradiated (C57BL/6 x C3H/HeN)F1 mice, donor-derived cells in the peripheral blood (PB) appeared significantly earlier in mice injected with IL-3RAA+/WGA+ cells than in those injected with IL-3RAA- /WGA+ cells, whereas the reconstruction efficiency of IL-3RAA-/WGA+ cells had overtaken that of IL-3RAA+/WGA+ cells 6 weeks after injection. Long-term observation showed no significant difference between these two populations, however. The radioprotective ability (RPA) (30-day survival) of these two populations was therefore compared. The RPA of IL-3RAA-/WGA+ cells was significantly higher than that of IL-3RAA+/WGA+ cells. These findings therefore suggest that the former population is more primitive.
