A new human myeloid cell line has been established recently from the bone marrow cells of a patient with chronic myelogenous leukemia in blast crisis. The active proliferation and survival of the cells in RPMI 1640 medium containing fetal calf serum are clearly dependent on the presence of either natural or recombinant human granulocyte- macrophage colony-stimulating factor (rhGM-CSF). Despite permanent culturing in rhGM-CSF (100 U/mL), the cells do not differentiate and bear the myelomonocytic surface markers CD34, CD13, CD36, as well as HLA-DR, but not CD3, CD7, CD10, CD11b, CD14, CD20, or CD42b. The predominant karyotype, apart from tetraploidy in several cells, is 45, XX, -9, -17, -19, -22, 7p-, 9q+ (der t[9;22]), der (13q), with three additional marker chromosomes, from which one was observed in the…

Human recombinant GM-CSF (rGM-CSF) was tested on highly purified and fractionated CFU-GM subsets. The fractionation was performed with the DS1-1 monoclonal antibody (MoAb), which distinguishes early and late CFU-GM. On whole bone marrow cells, rGM-CSF had a colony-stimulating activity comparable to that of known sources of CSFs, ie, the supernatant (SN) of TPA 30-1 or 5637 cell lines, used as control. A greatly reduced activity was observed when CFU-GM were depleted of phagocytizing and E rosetting cells (colony growth of 27% as compared with control). On fractionated CFU-GM, the rGM-CSF activity was even more reduced on both early and late progenitors (18% and 6% of colony growth, respectively). However, when rGM-CSF was used together with rG-CSF at suboptimal concentrations, the colony growth reached values analogous to that of control cultures. A synergistic interaction between rGM-CSF and rG-CSF in stimulating either early or late myeloid progenitors was observed. The results su...

Most cytokines act only synergistically in assays of primitive progenitor cell proliferation, and effects have usually been observed first after prolonged cell culture. Studies reporting that primitive progenitors lack receptors for a number of cytokines, including granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF), could indicate that several "synergistic" cytokines primarily affect cells that have differentiated in vitro. Here, however, we show that freshly isolated primitive progenitor cells (CD34 hi CD38 ؊) express receptors for GM-CSF at levels 20%-30% of granulo-monocytic progenitors. Although GM-CSF had minimal effects on the survival or proliferation of primitive progenitors when added alone, the cytokine enhanced stem cell factor (SCF) induced cell cycle entry in the first generation. The effect was not observed when cells were incubated sequentially with SCF and GM-CSF. The results suggest that the synergistic effects of GM-CSF are mediated directly on primitive progenitor cells and that the cytokine may be useful to enhance cell cycle entry of hematopoietic stem cells.

The responsiveness of bone marrow progenitors (BMP) from C3H mice to highly purified or recombinant preparations of Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor-1 (CSF-1) and Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) was compared by counting the number of colonies (greater than or equal to 50 cells) after 10 days in culture with CSF. Cells responsive to CSF-1 or GM-CSF exhibited maximum colony formation over a wide dose range, although GM-CSF supported colony formation at lower concentrations. The response of BMP to optimal concentrations of CSF-1 was greater than or equal to 5 times greater than the response of BMP to GM-CSF. Analysis of the kinetics of colony formation revealed that, at day 5, the number of BMP responsive to GM-CSF or CSF-1 was approximately equal; the number of CSF-1 colonies increased significantly through day 10, while those cultured in GM-CSF did not. The response of BMP to CSF-1 and GM-CSF was also studied in liquid culture; the differences in yield o...
Self-renewal, maturation, and differentiation of the rat myelomonocytic hematopoietic stem cell
The FASEB Journal, 1999
Hematopoiesis is viewed as a differentiating system emanating from a pluripotent hematopoietic stem cell capable of both self-renewal and differentiation. By identifying and characterizing a novel and highly specific in vitro mitogenic response to the N-acetyl glucosamyl/sialic acid specific, stem cell-binding lectin wheat germ agglutinin (WGA), we demonstrate the existance of a rare (0.1%), plastic adherent precursor in rat bone marrow capable of proliferation (two to seven divisions) in response to WGA. Stimulated cells possess a lineage (lin) low/؊ immunophenotype and immature blastoid morphology (WGA blasts). A subsequent proliferative response to stem cell factor (SCF), the ligand for the proto-oncogene receptor tyrosine kinase c-kit, is characterized by an initial maturation in immunophenotype and subsequent self-renewal of cells (SCF blasts) without differentiation for at least 50 generations. Although granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), interleukin (IL)-6, IL-7, and IL-11 synergize with SCF to increase blast colony formation, cytokines such as granulocyte-macrophage CSF or IL-3 are without significant effect. At all time points in culture, however, cells rapidly differentiate to mature neutrophils with dexamethasone or to mainly monocytes/macrophages in the presence of 1␣,25-dihydroxyvitamin D 3 , characterized by cell morphology and cytochemistry. Removal of SCF during blast maturation, self-renewal, or induction of differentiation phases results in apoptotic cell death. Data indicate a pivotal role for SCF/c-kit interaction during antigenic maturation, self-renewal, and apoptotic protection of these lineagerestricted progenitors during non-CSF-mediated induction of differentiation. This approach provides a source of many normal, proliferating myelomonocytic precursor cells, and introduces possible clinical applications of ex vivo expanded myeloid stem cells.

Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) is widely used in clinical settings to mobilize hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) into the circulation for HSC harvesting and transplantation. However, whether G-CSF directly stimulates HSCs to change their cell cycle state and fate is controversial. HSCs are a heterogeneous population consisting of different types of HSCs, such as myeloid-biased HSCs and lymphoid-biased HSCs. We hypothesized that G-CSF has different effects on different types of HSCs. To verify this, we performed serum-free single-cell culture and competitive repopulation with cultured cells. Single highly purified HSCs and hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) were cultured with stem cell factor (SCF), SCF + G-CSF, SCF + granulocyte/macrophage (GM)-CSF, or SCF + thrombopoietin (TPO) for 7 days. Compared with SCF alone, SCF + G-CSF increased the number of divisions of cells from the lymphoid-biased HSC-enriched population but not that of cells from the My-bi HSC-enriched ...

The H-2K b temperature-sensitive (ts) A58 transgenic (Immorto) mouse has been used previously to generate conditionally immortalized cells from a number of tissues. The present study aimed to investigate characteristics of primitive myeloid precursor cells derived from H-2K b-tsA58 bone marrow. Cell populations were enriched for granulocyte/macrophage progenitors by centrifugal elutriation, and were cultured in the presence and absence of cytokines at the permissive and restrictive temperatures for the A58 oncogene. Cells derived from H-2K b-tsA58 mice required both A58 activation and the growth factors, stem cell factor (SCF) and interleukin-3 (IL-3), for long-term cell survival and growth; cells were maintained for > 300 d in culture under these conditions. IL-3-and SCF-dependent clonal cell lines were derived with a phenotype (lin-, Sca-1 + , CD34 + , ER-MP 58 + , ER-MP 12 + , ER-MP 20-) characteristic of primitive myeloid progenitors. These cells differentiated on addition of granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) or macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) and acquired mature cell morphology with some upregulation of differentiation markers. In conclusion, the A58 oncogene can immortalize haemopoietic progenitor cells. These cells require two cytokines for growth, IL-3 and SCF; as such, they constitute a useful resource for the study of synergistic interactions between growth factors. The ability to develop monocytic cell characteristics also permits the investigation of cytokine-mediated early haemopoietic progenitor cell development.
