Allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and bone marrow cells (BMCs) were co-transplanted in NOD mice following none myeloablative preconditioning and the development of chimerism, insulitis, diabetes, and graft versus host disease (GVHD) were monitored. Eight-weeks-old female NOD mice were injected intravenously with 2×107 BMCs and 5×105 MSCs from C57BL/6 mice following treatment with 2 intraperitoneal injections of anti-CD3 antibody (days −7 and −4), and 3Gy total body irradiation (day −1). Thereafter, blood glucose and chimerism were monitored on peripheral blood samples. Stable mixed chimerism (3->90% of donor phenotype) was induced in 63.2% of BMCs-MSCs-(n=19) and 45.0% of BMCs alone recipients (n=20, p=0.256). Insulitis was prevented and euglycemia persisted for >18 weeks in 89.5% of BMCs-MSCs recipients including those with <3% chimerism and 55% of BM alone recipients (p<0.05). In controls, 9.1% of mice receiving preconditioning treatment alone (n=11) and 16.7% of preconditioned mice receiving only MSCs (n=12) were non-diabetic. GVHD was not detected in all mice. Co-injection of MSCs and BMCs increased the success rate in inducing chimerism and preventing insulitis and overt diabetes with no incidence of GVHD. Results also indicated that even micro-chimerism with <3% donor cells is sufficient for blocking autoimmunity.
