Low transplant cell dose in CB transplantation is one of several contributors to the slower engraftment. Processing delays could also be at play because CBU can be stored at room temperature (RT) for up to 48\u2009h before cryopreservation. We hypothesized that prolonged storage at RT reduces the potency and engraftment activities of CBU due to the loss of haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and progenitor cells.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Materials and Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>CBU were split in half, with one half processed shortly after collection and the other half after 40\u2009h of storage at RT. Viabilities and potencies were compared post thaw, and engraftment activity was tested in xenotransplants. Bioinformatic analysis was carried out to identify pathways modulated by prolonged storage at RT.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Prolonged storage at RT reduced the viability of CB cells and potency of grafts based on in vitro and in vivo assays. Transcriptomic analyses revealed that paracrine factors released in CBU induce several changes in gene expression programmes in CD34+ cells. These included the activation of the senescence gene <jats:italic>CDKN1B<\/jats:italic> and down\u2010regulation of cell cycle and autophagy genes. Supplementation of CBU with trehalose prevented the loss in cell viability and potency. The latter was associated with the restoration of autophagy and suppression of the senescence gene
