Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) remains the only curative treatment for several malignant and non-malignant diseases at the cost of serious treatment-related toxicities (TRTs). Recent research on extending the benefits of HSCT to more patients and indications has focused on limiting TRTs and improving immunological effects following proper mobilization and engraftment. Increasing numbers of studies report associations between HSCT outcomes and the expression or the manipulation of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). This large family of cell surface receptors is involved in various human diseases. With ever-better knowledge of their crystal structures and signaling dynamics, GPCRs are already the targets for one third of the current therapeutic arsenal. The present paper assesses the current status of animal and human research on GPCRs in the context of selected HSCT outcomes via a systematized survey and analysis of the literature.

Abstract
This review presents a novel view and working hypothesis about the hierarchy within the adult bone marrow stem cell compartment and the still-intriguing question of whether adult bone marrow contains primitive stem cells from early embryonic development, such as cells derived from the epiblast, migrating primordial germ cells or yolk sac-derived hemangioblasts. It also presents a novel view of the mechanisms that govern stem cell mobilization and homing, with special emphasis on the role of the complement cascade as a trigger for egress of hematopoietic stem cells from bone marrow into blood as well as the emerging role of novel homing factors and priming mechanisms that support stromal-derived factor 1-mediated homing of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells after transplantation.

Abstract
Under steady-state conditions, hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) egress from bone marrow (BM) and enter peripheral blood (PB) where they circulate at low levels. Their number in PB, however, increases significantly in several stress situations related to infection, organ/tissue damage, or strenuous exercise. Pharmacologically mediated enforced egress of HSPCs from the BM microenvironment into PB is called "mobilization", and this phenomenon has been exploited in hematological transplantology as a means to obtain HSPCs for hematopoietic reconstitution. In this review we will present the accumulated evidence that innate immunity, including the complement cascade and the granulocyte/monocyte lineage, and the PB plasma level of the bioactive lipid sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) together orchestrate this evolutionarily conserved mechanism that directs trafficking of HSPCs.

Abstract
Cancer chemotherapy disrupts the bone marrow (BM) microenvironment affecting steady-state proliferation, differentiation and maintenance of haematopoietic (HSC) and stromal stem and progenitor cells; yet the underlying mechanisms and recovery potential of chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression and bone loss remain unclear. While the CXCL12/CXCR4 chemotactic axis has been demonstrated to be critical in maintaining interactions between cells of the two lineages and progenitor cell homing to regions of need upon injury, whether it is involved in chemotherapy-induced BM damage and repair is not clear. Here, a rat model of chemotherapy treatment with the commonly used antimetabolite methotrexate (MTX) (five once-daily injections at 0.75 mg/kg/day) was used to investigate potential roles of CXCL12/CXCR4 axis in damage and recovery of the BM cell pool. Methotrexate treatment reduced marrow cellularity, which was accompanied by altered CXCL12 protein levels (increased in blood plasma but decreased in BM) and reduced CXCR4 mRNA expression in BM HSC cells. Accompanying the lower marrow CXCL12 protein levels (despite its increased mRNA expression in stromal cells) was increased gene and protein levels of metalloproteinase MMP-9 in bone and BM. Furthermore, recombinant MMP-9 was able to degrade CXCL12 in vitro. These findings suggest that MTX chemotherapy transiently alters BM cellularity and composition and that the reduced cellularity may be associated with increased MMP-9 expression and deregulated CXCL12/CXCR4 chemotactic signalling.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) circulate under steady-state conditions at detectable levels in peripheral blood (PB). The phenomenon of enforced release of HSPCs from BM into PB is called mobilization and may be envisioned as a danger-sensing response mechanism triggered by hypoxia or mechanical- or infection-induced tissue damage and is a part of stress response. It is unquestionable that the a-chemokine stromal derived factor-1 (SDF-1)-CXCR4 axis plays crucial role in retention of HSPCs in BM. However, all factors that direct mobilization of HSPCs into PB and homing back to the BM or their allocation to damaged organs are not characterized very well. In this chapter we will present mounting evidence that elements of innate immunity such as complement cascade (CC) cleavage fragments (e.g., C3a and C5a), granulocytes, generation of membrane attack complex (MAC) together with sphingosine-1 phosphate (S1P) orchestrate HSPC mobilization. On other hand some other bioactive lipids e.g., ceramide-1-phosphate (C1P) that is released from damaged/"leaky" cells in BM after myeloablative conditioning for transplant may play an opposite important role in homing of HSPCs to BM. Finally, the chemotactic activity of all chemoattractants for HSPCs including SDF-1, S1P and C1P is enhanced in presence of CC cleavage fragments (e.g., C3a) and MAC that is a final product of CC activation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Circulating endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are a specialized subset of stem/progenitor cells found in bone marrow. They participate in neo-vascularization of injured vessels and predict cardiovascular outcome in patient at risk. Several factors influence their migration and proliferation, among which is the widely studied stromal-derived factor-1α (SDF-1α). In cardiovascular disease, regarding thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAAs), few studies have investigated the levels of EPC and SDF-1α. As rupture, acute dissection and hematoma are acute complications of idiopathic ascending thoracic aortic aneurysm (iATAA) that increase with the size of aneurysm, we aimed to evaluate a potential relationship between circulating EPC and SDF-1α and iATAA size. METHODS The aneurysm size of 27 consecutive patients suffering from iATAA and scheduled for surgery was assessed by computed tomography scan. In all patients, we measured levels of circulating EPCs by flow cytometer, and plasma levels of SDF-1α the day before surgery. RESULTS The median aneurysm size was 54 mm (interquartile range (IQR): 50.0-58.8]. The EPC levels of CD34+/CD144+/CD14- and CD34+/VEGF-R2+/CD14- were inversely correlated to aneurysm diameter (p = 0.038, r = -0.424 and p = 0.0046, r = -0.65, respectively) before surgery. Conversely, plasma levels of SDF-1α were positively correlated to aneurysm size (p = 0.042; r = 0.47). CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicate that EPC levels may be useful for monitoring ascending aorta aneurysms and that SDF-1α could be a biomarker of iATAA expansion.

Abstract
Expression of the chemokine receptor CXCR4 by haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) is believed to influence the process of these cells 'homing' back to the bone marrow post-transplantation, in response to the stromal cell-derived factor-1 gradient, followed by engraftment. The primary aim of this retrospective study was to compare reinfused CD34(+) cell dose, assessed from the fresh collection, with the post-thaw viable (v) CD34(+) and vCD34/CXCR4(+) dual positive cell dose as predictors of haematopoietic recovery in multiple myeloma patients undergoing autologous stem cell transplantation. Cryopreserved samples from stem cell collections of 27 myeloma patients were analysed for CD34 and CXCR4 expression and times to haematological engraftment measured. Dosage of transplanted vCD34(+) cells was on average 79% of the original calculation from the fresh collection bag (range 29-98%). The median percentage of vCD34+ cells co-expressing CXCR4 was 37% (3.7-97%). Surface expression of CXCR4 by thawed vCD34(+) cells was closely correlated to complementary DNA levels. The median dose of CD34/CXCR4(+) cells in the autografts was 1.2 × 10(6)/kg (0.2-3.0 × 10(6)/kg) compared with 3.3 × 10(6)/kg for transplanted vCD34(+) cells (1.2-5.5 × 10(6)/kg). Both CD34 and vCD34 doses correlated with neutrophil engraftment (p < 0.005) although vCD34/CXCR4(+) dose did not. However, patients given a higher dose of CD34/CXCR4(+) cells (≥1.75 × 10(6)/kg) showed a faster time to platelet recovery (p < 0.05) than those given a lower dose (≤0.42 × 10(6)/kg). These results warrant further study of CD34/CXCR4 expression by mobilised HSCs and the relationship to platelet recovery post-transplantation on a larger cohort of patients.

Abstract
The complement cascade (CC) becomes activated and its cleavage fragments play a crucial role in the mobilization of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs). Here, we sought to determine which major chemoattractant present in peripheral blood (PB) is responsible for the egress of HSPCs from the bone marrow (BM). We noticed that normal and mobilized plasma strongly chemoattracts HSPCs in a stromal-derived factor-1 (SDF-1)-independent manner because (i) plasma SDF-1 level does not correlate with mobilization efficiency; (ii) the chemotactic plasma gradient is not affected in the presence of AMD3100 and (iii) it is resistant to denaturation by heat. Surprisingly, the observed loss of plasma chemotactic activity after charcoal stripping suggested the involvement of bioactive lipids and we focused on sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), a known chemoattracant of HSPCs. We found that S1P (i) creates in plasma a continuously present gradient for BM-residing HSPCs; (ii) is at physiologically relevant concentrations a chemoattractant several magnitudes stronger than SDF-1 and (iii) its plasma level increases during mobilization due to CC activation and interaction of the membrane attack complex (MAC) with erythrocytes that are a major reservoir of S1P. We conclude and propose a new paradigm that S1P is a crucial chemoattractant for BM-residing HSPCs and that CC through MAC induces the release of S1P from erythrocytes for optimal egress/mobilization of HSPCs.

Mobilization studies in complement-deficient mice reveal that optimal AMD3100 mobilization of hematopoietic stem cells depends on complement cascade activation by AMD3100-stimulated granulocytes. Leukemia 2010; 24:573-582.

Abstract
We reported that complement cascade (CC) becomes activated in bone marrow (BM) during mobilization of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) induced by granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) and C5 cleavage has an important function in optimal egress of HSPCs. In this work, we explored whether CC is involved in mobilization of HSPCs induced by the CXCR4 antagonist, AMD3100. To address this question, we performed mobilization studies in mice that display a defect in the activation of the proximal steps of CC (Rag(-/-), severe combined immune deficient (SCID), C2.Cfb(-/-)) as well as in mice that do not activate the distal steps of CC (C5(-/-)). We noticed that proximal CC activation-deficient mice (above C5 level), in contrast to distal step CC activation-deficient C5(-/-) ones, mobilize normally in response to AMD3100 administration. We hypothesized that this discrepancy in mobilization could be explained by AMD3100-activating C5 in Rag(-/-), SCID, and C2.Cfb(-/-) animals in a non-canonical mechanism involving activated granulocytes. To support this, granulocytes (i) first egress from BM and (ii) secrete several proteases that cleave/activate C5 in response to AMD3100. We conclude that AMD3100-directed mobilization of HSPCs, similarly to G-CSF-induced mobilization, depends on activation of CC; however, in contrast to G-CSF, AMD3100 activates the distal steps of CC directly at the C5 level. Overall, these data support that C5 cleavage fragments and distal steps of CC activation are required for optimal mobilization of HSPCs.
