Abstract
Umbilical cord blood (UCB) transplantation is associated with prolonged periods of cytopenia. Ex vivo expansion of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) is currently investigated as a mean to accelerate hematological recovery. Contrary to neutrophils, platelet recovery remains problematic. For this reason, we have developed a culture protocol promoting the expansion of megakaryocyte (Mk) progenitors. The objective of this work was to determine whether the expanded (E) UCB HSPCs could accelerate platelet recovery in vivo using a murine HSPC transplantation model. The thrombopoietic activity of UCB and mobilized peripheral blood CD34(+) cells expanded under mild hyperthermia (MH, ie, 39°C) with the optimized megakaryocyte progenitor cocktail (OMPC) diverged significantly from the nonexpanded (NE) cells of origin; E cells provided rapid platelet release, while NE cells strongly contributed to platelet production past 10 days of transplantation. Consequently, the complementary of both cell sources was investigated. Cotransplantation of NE with E UCB cells significantly improved the recovery of human platelets (hPLTs) in vivo due to their complementary and synergistic thrombopoietic activities. Moreover, short-term human bone marrow (BM) reconstitution was also improved. Finally, we show that early hPLT release is dependent on Mk-primed cells and that E cells do not act as accessory cells, but have a more active role. In conclusion, hPLT recovery and short-term BM engraftment can be efficiently improved by the cotransplantation of Mk-primed UCB cells with NE HSPCs in a murine transplantation model.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
