Retroviral vector-mediated gene transfer into human hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) may permit gene therapy of certain genetic diseases. Stimulation of HSC with hematopoietic growth factors (GF) has been shown to increase the level of retroviral transduction. We have studied the effect of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), alone and in combination with other GFs, on the efficiency of transfer of the bacterial neomycin phosphotransferase (neoR) gene into human CD34(+)-enriched peripheral blood hematopoietic progenitor cells. The combination of bFGF, interleukin-3 (IL-3), IL-6, and stem cell factor (SCF) resulted in a transduction efficiency of 37 and 35% for G418-resistant colony-forming units-granulocyte/macrophage (CFU-GM) and mixed colonies multipotent colony-forming units (CFU-GEMM), respectively, which was significantly higher than the corresponding figures obtained with IL-3, IL-6, and SCF. The optimal concentration of bFGF was between 20 and 200 ng/mL. bFGF alone had no effect on the transduction rate. These results indicated a synergism in the action of bFGF, IL-3, IL-6, and SCF to enhance gene transduction rates into human hematopoietic progenitor cells.

D008264 Macrophages The relatively long-lived phagocytic cell of mammalian tissues that are derived from blood MONOCYTES. Main types are PERITONEAL MACROPHAGES; ALVEOLAR MACROPHAGES; HISTIOCYTES; KUPFFER CELLS of the liver; and OSTEOCLASTS. They may further differentiate within chronic inflammatory lesions to EPITHELIOID CELLS or may fuse to form FOREIGN BODY GIANT CELLS or LANGHANS GIANT CELLS.

D012190 Retroviridae Family of RNA viruses that infects birds and mammals and encodes the enzyme reverse transcriptase. The family contains seven genera: DELTARETROVIRUS; LENTIVIRUS; RETROVIRUSES TYPE B, MAMMALIAN; ALPHARETROVIRUS; GAMMARETROVIRUS; RETROVIRUSES TYPE D; and SPUMAVIRUS. A key feature of retrovirus biology is the synthesis of a DNA copy of the genome which is integrated into cellular DNA. After integration it is sometimes not expressed but maintained in a latent state (PROVIRUSES).

D016222 Fibroblast Growth Factor 2 A single-chain polypeptide growth factor that plays a significant role in the process of WOUND HEALING and is a potent inducer of PHYSIOLOGIC ANGIOGENESIS. Several different forms of the human protein exist ranging from 18-24 kDa in size due to the use of alternative start sites within the fgf-2 gene. It has a 55 percent amino acid residue identity to FIBROBLAST GROWTH FACTOR 1 and has potent heparin-binding activity. The growth factor is an extremely potent inducer of DNA synthesis in a variety of cell types from mesoderm and neuroectoderm lineages. It was originally named basic fibroblast growth factor based upon its chemical properties and to distinguish it from acidic fibroblast growth factor (FIBROBLAST GROWTH FACTOR 1).
