ISHAGE PROTOCOL SUMAN SMITH ADHIKARI MODERATOR: DR. JASMITA DASS CD34 Transmembrane glycoprotein expressed in hematopoietic stem cells, progenitor cells and endothelial cells Almost all pluripotent and committed stem cells in the CFUs express CD34 The uncommitted progenitor cells are CD38- while the committed progenitor cells are CD38+ In normal conditions, CD34 positive cells form 1-2% of the total bone marrow cells Principles of immunophenotyping, Atlas of  SCHEMA FOR IMMUNOPHENOTYPING OF STEM AND PROGENITOR CELLS Short-Term Storage of Mobilized Peripheral Blood Stem Cells in a Closed System Changes the Microenvironment and May Affect the Quantity of CD34+ and CD34+CD38-CD45RA-CD90+ Cells. Transplantation and cellular therapy, Issue 2, p112, E1-112, E9,  NEED FOR ENUMERATION OF CD34 STEM CELLS Adequate number of peripheral blood stem cells are required for successful rescue of hematopoiesis after myeloablation Absolute count correlates with engraftment Approximately 2x10^6 CD34 cells/kg body weight are required for adequate reconstitution of hematopoiesis with a lower limit of 1x10^6 CD34 cells/kg body weight PBSCs are collected by apheresis after mobilization into peripheral blood by growth factor (G-CSF) and plerixafor(novel SDF-1/CXCR4 antagonist) Short-Term Storage of Mobilized Peripheral Blood Stem Cells in a Closed System Changes the Microenvironment and May Affect the Quantity of CD34 + and CD34+CD38-CD45RA-CD90+ Cells. Transplantation and cellular therapy, Issue 2, p112, E1-112, E9, February 2023  Routine clinical assay for hematopoietic progenitor stem cells should meet the following criteria a)Simplicity- to allow widespread applicability b)Sensitivity- since hematopoietic stem cells are rare events c)Accuracy- to provide clinically relevant results d)Reproducibility- to provide clinically reliable results e)Speed- to provide real time and online analysis The ISHAGE protocol is a simple gating strategy which uses light scatter and two-colour immunofluorescence analysis using a pan CD45 and pan CD34 monoclonal antibody combination  TYPES OF EPITOPES 1) CD34 is a heavily glycosylated cell surface molecule that gives rise to different kinds of epitopes 2) Monoclonal antibodies have been divided into three classes based on their epitope recognition and sensitivity to enzymatic cleavage with different glycoproteases 3) The class III epitope is more widely distributed both on endothelial cells and a large proportion of hematopoietic progenitor cells PASTEURELLA CHYMOPAPAIN HEMOLYTICA NEURAMINIDASE DERIVED GLYCOPREOTEASE CLASS I EPITOPE SENSITIVE SENSITIVE SENSITIVE CLASS II EPITOPE RESISTANT SENSITIVE SENSITIVE CLASS III EPITOPE RESISTANT RESISTANT RESISTANT The Role of the Different CD34 Epitopes in Detection and Positive Selection of CD34+ Bone Marrow and Peripheral Blood Stem Cells A.

Cytometry 1998;34:61-7 7-AAD 7- Amino Actinomycin D Fluorescent chemical compound with strong affinity for DNA Strongly binds to GC rich regions of DNA It is an impermeant dye: cells with intact cell membrane(viable cells) don’t allow the dye to pass through Pediatric Hematology and Oncology, Early Online:1–16, 2012 Copyright C Informa Healthcare USA, Inc.
