In the present investigation, we generated platelets (PLTs) from cord blood ( CB) CD34(+) cells using a three- phase culture system. We first cultured 500 CB CD34(+) cells on telomerase gene- transduced human stromal cells ( hTERT stroma) in serum-free medium supplemented with stem cell factor ( SCF), Flt-3/ Flk-2 ligand ( FL), and thrombopoietin ( TPO) for 14 days. We then transferred the cells to hTERT stroma and cultured for another 14 days with fresh medium containing interleukin-11 (IL- 11) in addition to the original cytokine cocktail. Subsequently, we cultured the cells in a liquid culture medium containing SCF, FL, TPO, and IL- 11 for another 5 days to recover PLT fractions from the supernatant, which were then gel- filtered to purify the PLTs. The calculated yield of PLTs from 1.0 unit of CB ( 5 x 106 CD34(+) cells) was 1.26 x 10(11) - 1.68 x 10(11) PLTs. These numbers of PLTs are equivalent to 2.5 - 3.4 units of random donorderived PLTs or 2/ 5 - 6/ 10 of single- apheresis PLTs. The CB- derived PLTs exhibited features quite similar to those from peripheral blood in morphology, as revealed by electron micrographs, and in function, as revealed by fibrinogen/ ADP aggregation, with the appearance of beta-selectin and activated glycoprotein IIb- IIIa antigens. Thus, this culture system may be applicable for large- scale generation of PLTs for future clinical use.
