Purpose : The purpose of this study was to evaluate factors affecting hematologic recovery and infection in high-dose chemotherapy(HDCT) and autologous stem cell transplantation(ASCT) in patients with high-risk solid tumor. Methods : From January 2004 to December 2005, 72 HDCTs and ASCTs were applied to children with high-risk solid tumor at Samsung Medical Center. Medical records of these 72 HDCTs and ASCTs were retrospectively analyzed. Results : The single most powerful predictor of neutrophil and platelet recovery was the number of transplanted $CD34^+$ cells. The duration of high fever was significantly longer in young patients, in patients treated with total body irradiation and/or thiotepa, and in patients transplanted with lower $CD34^+$ cell dose(<$2{\times}10^6/kg$). However, the difference in the duration of high fever according to the number of $CD34^+$ cells was not clinically significant. Conclusion : Findings in this study suggest that HDCT and ASCT with low $CD34^+$ cell dose is clinically feasible despite delayed hematologic recovery, especially at a dose >$1{\times}10^6/kg$ per transplantation. Therefore, it is important not to defer the appropriate time for HDCT for an additional collection of hematopoietic stem cells if the number of collected $CD34^+$ cells is >$1{\times}10^6/kg$ per transplantation.

본 연구는 칡소 귀세포를 공여핵으로 이용한 체세포 복제송아지 생산에 있어서 배양방법이 배발생 및 배반포 발달율에 미치는 영향과 체세포 복제란의 이식후 수태율에 미치는 영향을조사하여 복제송아지의 생산 효율을 제고하고자 실시하였다. 실험에 공시된 공여핵은 칡소 의 귀세포를 회수하여 10%FBS가 첨가된 DMEM배지에서 3-4일 동안 배양하여 monolayar Confluent 형성 후 0.25% trypsin을 처리하여 준비하였으며 공여세포는 적어도 passage가 5회 이상의 세포만을 사용하였다. 복제수정란의 생산은 18-20시간 동안 체외성숙 된 난자의 핵을 제거하고 공여핵을 주입하여 2.2kv/cm, 10$\mu\textrm{s}$의 전압으로 2회 자극함으로 융합하였으며, 융합된 난자는 5$\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$ ionomycin에서 4분간, 1.9mM 6-dimethyl aminopurine에서 4시간동안 배양하여 활성화처리를 하였다. 핵이식수정란의 배양은 39$^{\circ}C$, 5%$CO_2$ incubator에서 처리구 I은 CRlaa에서 4일간 배양 후 CR2aa배지에서 배양, 처리구II는 CRlaa에 4일간 배양후 CR2aa배지에 cumulus cell과 공배양, 처리구III은 CR2aa 배지에 camulus cell과 함께 배양하였다. 수정란이식은 발정발현 7일째에 비외과적 방법으로 젖소 미경산우에 이식하였으며 이식란수는 2~4개의 핵이식된 수정란을 이식하였다. 임신진단은 45~60일 사이에 직장검사 및 초음파 진단기를 이용하여 실시하였다. 배양방법에 따른 배발생율은 처리구 I에서 92.2 %(83/90)으로 처리구II와 III의 62.4%(63/101)와 77.8%(144/185)에 비하여 높게 나타났으나 배반포 발달율은 처리구II와III에서 65.1%(41/63)와 50.0%(72/144)로 처리구 I의 30.1%(25/83)보다 높게 나타났다. 각 처리구에 따른 수정란 이식후 수태율은 처리구II와 III에서 공히 20%의 수태율을 나타낸 반면 처리구 I에서는 수태가 되지 않았다. 따라서 체세포 복제수정란의 생산에 있어서 배반포 발달율과 수태율을 높이기 위해서는 단순배양보다 공배양이 더 효과적인 것으로 사료되지만 이런 결과가 복제송아지 생산효율에 있어서도 효과적일지는 향후 더 많은 연구가 있어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

Purpose : Cytomegalovirus(CMV) infection still remains as a major cause of morbidity and mortality after stem cell transplantation. In this study, we analyzed the results of antigenemia-guided preemptive therapy among children with allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation to determine the incidence and risk factors associated with CMV antigenemia, and evaluated the efficacy of the CMV antigenemia based preemptive therapy. Methods : We enrolled 213 pediatric patients following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(HSCT), at the Catholic HSCT center between October 1998 and December 2003. Pre-emptive ganciclovir was started when more than 5 CMV Ag-positive cells were detected in matched sibling HSCT, and when any Ag-positive cells were seen in unrelated allogenic HSCT. Results : CMV antigenemia was observed in 88(41.3 percent) of 213 patients on median day 28(day 11-99). In univariated analysis, use of unrelated donors(other than siblings), age of recipient(more than 5 years at transplant) at transplantation, the presence of recipient CMV-IgG before transplantation, TBI-based conditioning regimen and the presence of acute GvHD(grade ${\geq}II$) were the risk factors for positive CMV antigenemia. In multivariate analysis, unrelated bone marrow transplantation, positive recipient CMV serology and acute GvHD(grade ${\geq}II$) were the independent risk factors for positive CMV antigenemia. Conclusion : Risk factors of CMV infection in children were CMV serostatus of the recipient, the source of stem cells, and acute graft-versus-host disease. The pre-emptive therapy based on CMV antigenemia was effective in the prevention of CMV disease.

Replacement of insulin-producing cells represents an almost ideal treatment for patients with diabetes mellitus type 1. Transplantation of pancreatic islets of Langerhans is limited by the lack of donor organs. Therefore, generation of insulin-producing cells from human embryonic stem cells represents an attractive alternative. The present review summarizes the current knowledge on the differentiation of insulin-producing cells from human embryonic stem cells and their application to the cell therapy for treating diabetes mellitus.

Background: The xenogenic or allogenic valves after in Vitro repopulation with autologous cells or in vivo repo-pulation after acellularization treatment to remove the antigenicity could used as an alternative to synthetic polymer scaffold. In the present study, we evaluated the process of repopulation by recipient cell to the acellu-larized xenograft treated with NaCl-SDS solution and grafted in the right ventricular outflow tract. Material and Method: Porcine pulmonary valved conduit were treated with. NaCl-SDS solution to make the grafts acellularized and implanted in the right ventricular outflow tract of the goats under cardiopulmonary bypass. After evaluating the functions of pulmonary valves by echocardiography, goats were sacrificed at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after implantation, respectively. After retrieving the implanted valved conduits, histopathologic examination with Hematoxylin-Eosin, Masson' trichrome staining and immunohistochemical staining was performed. Result: Among the six goats, which had been implanted with acellularized pulmonary valved conduits, five survived the expected time period. Echocardiographic examinations for pulmonary valves revealed good function except mild regurgitation and stenosis. Microscopic analysis of the leaflets showed progressive cellular in-growth, composed of fibroblasts, myofibroblasts, and endothelial cells, into the acellularized leaflets over time. Severe inflammatory respon-se was detected in early phase, though it gradually decreased afterwards. The extracellular matrices were regenerated by repopulated cells on the recellularized portion of the acellularized leaflet. Conclusion: The acellularized xenogenic pulmonary valved conuits were repopulated with fibroblasts, myofibroblasts, and endothelial cells of the recipient and extracellullar matrices were regenerated by repopulted cells 12 months after the implantation. The functional integrity of pulmonary valves was well preserved. This study showed that the acellularized porcine xenogenic valved conduits could be used as an ideal valve prosthesis with long term durability.

The current study was designed to extend the technique of spermatogonial transplantation to economically important pig model We evaluated the efficiency of pig to pig transplantation. Donor testis cells were harvested from testes obtained at castration of 10- to 14-day-old boars and were labeled with fluorescent marker(PKH26) before transplantation. The presence of infused dye or labeled pig testicular cells was confirmed in the seminiferous tubules from recipient pig. The most effective procedure of intratubular germ cell transfer was to insert an fine needle ($21{\sim}25$ gauge) through the cauda epididymis and testis into the rete testis under ultrasound guidance. Infusion of $5{\sim}7ml$ of dye solution or cell suspension could fill the rete and up to 50% of seminiferous tubules of 14-week-old boars. Testis were examined for the presence and localization of labeled donor cells immediately after transplantation and labeled donor cells were found in numerous seminiferous tubules from recipient pig testes. These results indicate that germ cell transplantation is feasible in recipient pig testis. This study represents successful spermatogonial transplantation between individual animals in a livestock species.
