Resumen:
Cryopreservation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) involves slow rate cooling in the presence of a cryoprotectant (DMSO) to avoid the damaging effects of intracellular ice formation. The infusion of DMSO with the thawed product has been related to adverse events. Reduction of DMSO content by washing the HSCs after thawing has been suggested as a method to avoid infusion-related side-effects. Albumin-dextran washing methods have proved useful in thawing HSC products. Dextran40 shortages prompted us to search for suitable alternatives. We report the results of a comparative study of the use of hydroxyethyl starch (HES) as an alternative to dextran40 for washing thawed HSCs products. A total of 10 HSC bags cryopreserved with 10 % DMSO were used. We conducted a paired study; one of the bags was thawed and washed with our standard washing solution (Dextran 40) and the paired bag with HES solution with a final HES and Human Serum Albumin (HSA) concentration of 2.4 % and 4.2 % respectively. Each final product was tested immediately after washing (sample 0?) and after 90 min (sample 90?) for total nucleated cells (TNC) recovery, acridine orange viability, viable CD34+ enumeration, and clonogenicity. No significant difference was found for any of the cell counts, viability tests, cell recovery, or potency. We can state that the washing solution based on 2.4 % HES and 4.2 % HSA is equivalent to that used in our routine practice. Therefore, we could use the solution with HES, paying special attention to the renal function of the recipient.
