Short-Term Storage of Mobilized Peripheral Blood Stem Cells in a Closed System Changes the Microenvironment and May Affect the Quantity of CD34+ and CD34+CD38-CD45RA-CD90+ Cells

Abstract: cells were inversely associated with the change in glucose concentration (P = .003 and P < .001, respectively) and positively associated with the change in lactate concentration (P = .01 and P <.001, respectively) after 8 hours of airtight storage. Storage of PBSC samples in a sealed, airtight environment is associated with microenvironmental changes consistent with hypoxia and increased concentrations of immunophenotypically defined stem cells. These results may have clinical implications with regard to the collection and processing of stem cell products and warrant confirmation with functional and mechanistic studies.
