What Is Umbilical Cord Blood?What Is Umbilical Cord Blood?
• Blood remaining in the umbilical cord and placenta after birth
• The blood is rich in stem cells derived from the baby
• Other types of stem cells/progenitors that can give rise to other body tissues– Mesenchymal cells
• Fetal RBC– HbgF (50-95% of all Hbg)– Higher O2 affinity (19 vs 26 mmHg)– Replaced by HbgA by 12 weeks
after birth

Stemness = the ability of unspecialized cells to renew themselves as unspecialized cells but still retain the ability to specialize.

(whole blood or red cells)
as a blood component for transfusion?
![Page 9: Red cells from Cord Blood - a new product for the Blood Bank?? Elisabeth Semple, PhD Scientific Director Cells for Life Cord Blood Institute Toronto.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551acf9c550346b2288b5af6/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Potential benefits
• Autologous use: –pre-term infants–surgeries done shortly after birth
• Allogeneic use: –avoid disease transmission
•E.g. in malaria endemic countries
–intra-uterine transfusions•HbgF

• Cord blood is separated into RBC, plasma and buffy coat
• Volume reduced, closed systems– AXP, Sepax– Manual methods
• Stem cells are located in the buffy coat
• RBC a bi-product after extraction of the stem cells

Whole blood or RBC?
• Whole blood– High number of stem cells
• Autologous – no problem• Allogeneic
– Transient increase in circulating CD34+ cells– No GvHD detected (Bhattacharya, 2006)– Can be filtered
– Remove the WBC• Filter – requires >60 ml volume• Fetal RBC have higher MCV – increased loss in filter?
– Inconsistent volume of whole blood in a constant volume of CPD
• Usually 35 ml CPD + 20-200 blood• Increased risk for cardiac problems?
– Excess CPD will bind Ca ions in the recipient

• RBC concentrate– Bi-product after processing for stem
cells– Low volumes
• Abut 20-25 ml packed RBC
– Requires storage solution• SAGM/PAGGS or plasma• How does it store??

Aim:Investigate the feasibility and safety of collection and transfusion of RBC from CB.
Patients:n=47, treated in the Pediatrics Dept.
21 needed transfusion
Diagnosis:Respiratory distress syndromeDisorders of pulmonary adaption + Infection, apnea bradycardia syndrome, anemia
CB was collected and centrifuged to remove the plasma/CPDSAGM was added
Autologous use

Eichler et al. Transfusion 2000;40:1111-7
Results:Collected volume: 56 ±33 mlRBC volume (after processing): 29 (range: 6-87ml)Bacterial contamination: 9% of unitsStorage time: max 14 days
CB – K+: 23 mmol/L, Hs: 0.9%RBC: K+: 15 mmol/L, Hs: 0.1%
21/47 infants got transfusedtotal: 4 autologous and 62 allogeneicthe most immature (and smallest) needed most
transfusionsmost transfusions >14 days after birth.No baby only got autologous blood
Cost: approx 11 times higher then standard blood
Autologous use
![Page 22: Red cells from Cord Blood - a new product for the Blood Bank?? Elisabeth Semple, PhD Scientific Director Cells for Life Cord Blood Institute Toronto.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551acf9c550346b2288b5af6/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Eichler et al. Transfusion 2000;40:1111-7
Conclusion:
“.. The collection and preparation and of autologous RBC components from CB is technically possible in principle. However, there are major concerns as to weather such preparation are of benefit in ensuring safe care of neonates with blood components, considering the high rate of bacterial contamination…”
“.. This is not a reliable and cost-effective way of enhancing the safety of the blood supply for pre-term infants.”
Autologous use
![Page 23: Red cells from Cord Blood - a new product for the Blood Bank?? Elisabeth Semple, PhD Scientific Director Cells for Life Cord Blood Institute Toronto.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551acf9c550346b2288b5af6/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Brune et al. Autologous placental blood transfusion for the therapy of anaemic neonates. Biology of the neonate 2002;81:236-43
Aim: Show improved collection and processing techniques and
investigate the clinical applicability in different patient groups.
Patients:n=141
Cord blood:Collected from 131 babies, spun and separated. RBC in
SAGM.
Result:22/131 received autologous CB RBCOnly 6 got just autologous RBC
Autologous use
![Page 24: Red cells from Cord Blood - a new product for the Blood Bank?? Elisabeth Semple, PhD Scientific Director Cells for Life Cord Blood Institute Toronto.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551acf9c550346b2288b5af6/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Brune et al. Autologous placental blood transfusion for the therapy of anaemic neonates. Biology of the neonate 2002;81:236-43
Important points:No bacterial contamination in any of the CB units
others: 0-9%Maternal cell contamination
found in gel test for ABO typingStored the RBC for 35 days
Conclusion:
“.. Effective in a high percentage of cases in preventing the need for allogeneic transfusions in preterm newborns with a birth weight of >1000 g and in term newborns requiring blood transfusions, e.g. in the case of surgical interventions after birth.”
Autologous use
![Page 25: Red cells from Cord Blood - a new product for the Blood Bank?? Elisabeth Semple, PhD Scientific Director Cells for Life Cord Blood Institute Toronto.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551acf9c550346b2288b5af6/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Khodabux et al. Transfusion 2008;48:1634-43
Important points:Of the 325 infants needed to power the study, only 101 units were collectedOnly 64 CB RBC components were available in the end.
4% bacterial contamination
A 25% reduction in allogeneic RBC transfusions in infants born 28-32 weeks of gestation.
Cost was x15 of a standard transfusion
Most of the units with good volumes were never transfusedfrom infants with low transfusion need
Could replace allogeneic blood for 27% of infants needing transfusion
Autologous use
![Page 26: Red cells from Cord Blood - a new product for the Blood Bank?? Elisabeth Semple, PhD Scientific Director Cells for Life Cord Blood Institute Toronto.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551acf9c550346b2288b5af6/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Conclusion:
Maybe good for preterm (28-32 weeks) infants if allogeneic transfusion should be avoided.
High cost
High bacterial contamination risk
Clinical benefit questionable
Autologous use
![Page 27: Red cells from Cord Blood - a new product for the Blood Bank?? Elisabeth Semple, PhD Scientific Director Cells for Life Cord Blood Institute Toronto.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551acf9c550346b2288b5af6/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Allogeneic useBhattacharya N. J Am Coll Surg 2005; 200:557-63, Clin Exp Obstet Gynecol 2006 (various papers)
Treated children and adults with whole cord blood stored up to 72 h.
Diagnosis:Treatment of anaemia in Malaria, diabetes, HIV, cancer,
thallassemia, SLE…
No adverse reactions
Transient increase in CD34 positive cells if blood not filtered
HbgF in adults with anaemia???
![Page 28: Red cells from Cord Blood - a new product for the Blood Bank?? Elisabeth Semple, PhD Scientific Director Cells for Life Cord Blood Institute Toronto.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551acf9c550346b2288b5af6/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Allogeneic use
Hassall et al. Lancet 2003
Propose to use CB for pediatric transfusions
One unit can raise Hbg with 30 g/L
May have lower risk of diseaseStill high bacterial contamination
![Page 29: Red cells from Cord Blood - a new product for the Blood Bank?? Elisabeth Semple, PhD Scientific Director Cells for Life Cord Blood Institute Toronto.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551acf9c550346b2288b5af6/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Clinical benefits with using RBC from CB??
• HbF– High affinity for O2
• Autologous use– Will it reduce donor exposure??
• In-utero transfusion
![Page 30: Red cells from Cord Blood - a new product for the Blood Bank?? Elisabeth Semple, PhD Scientific Director Cells for Life Cord Blood Institute Toronto.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551acf9c550346b2288b5af6/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Risks
• Bacterial contamination– 5-10% in clinical studies
![Page 31: Red cells from Cord Blood - a new product for the Blood Bank?? Elisabeth Semple, PhD Scientific Director Cells for Life Cord Blood Institute Toronto.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551acf9c550346b2288b5af6/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Conclusions
• A lot of work for little benefit…• Malaria endemic countries??
• Use the cord blood to obtain the stem cells
