Generation of a bank of clinical-grade, HLA-homozygous iPSC lines with high coverage of the Spanish population.
Stem Cell Research & Therapy 2023 December 14
BACKGROUND: Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived cell therapies are an interesting new area in the field of regenerative medicine. One of the approaches to decrease the costs of iPSC-derived therapies is the use of allogenic homozygous human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched donors to generate iPSC lines and to build a clinical-grade iPSC bank covering a high percentage of the Spanish population.
METHODS: The Spanish Stem Cell Transplantation Registry was screened for cord blood units (CBUs) homozygous for the most common HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-DRB1 haplotypes. Seven donors were selected with haplotypes covering 21.37% of the haplotypes of the Spanish population. CD34-positive hematopoietic progenitors were isolated from the mononuclear cell fraction of frozen cord blood units from each donor by density gradient centrifugation and further by immune magnetic labeling and separation using purification columns. Purified CD34 + cells were reprogrammed to iPSCs by transduction with the CTS CytoTune-iPS 2.1 Sendai Reprogramming Kit.
RESULTS: The iPSCs generated from the 7 donors were expanded, characterized, banked and registered. Master cell banks (MCBs) and working cell banks (WCBs) from the iPSCs of each donor were produced under GMP conditions in qualified clean rooms.
CONCLUSIONS: Here, we present the first clinical-grade, iPSC haplobank in Spain made from CD34 + cells from seven cord blood units homozygous for the most common HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-DRB1 haplotypes within the Spanish population. We describe their generation by transduction with Sendai viral vectors and their GMP-compliant expansion and banking. These haplolines will constitute starting materials for advanced therapy medicinal product development (ATMP).
