The effects of mouse L-cell interferon (IFN) on growth of mouse bone marrow cells and their differentiation into macrophages and granulocytes were investigated in a liquid suspension culture system with two different types of colony-stimulating factor (CSF). Within 7 days, most bone marrow cells differentiated into macrophages in the presence of macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) derived from mouse fibroblast L929 cells, but into both granulocytes (40%) and macrophages (23%) in the presence of a granulocyte-macrophage colony- stimulating factor (GM-CSF) from mouse lung tissue. IFN inhibited growth of bone marrow cells with both M-CSF and GM-CSF, but had 20 times more effect on bone marrow cells stimulated with M-CSF than on those stimulated with GM-CSF. A low concentration of IFN (50 IU/ml) stimulated production of macrophages by GM-CSF in liquid culture medium, whereas it selectively inhibited colony formation of macrophages in semisolid agar culture. IFN caused no detectable block of late stages of differentiation; mature macrophages and granulocytes were produced even when cell proliferation was inhibited by IFN. These results indicate that IFN preferentially affects growth and differentiation of the cell lineage of macrophages among mouse bone marrow cells.

Defects in macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) signaling disrupt myeloid cell differentiation in nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice, blocking myeloid maturation into tolerogenic antigen-presenting cells (APCs). In the absence of M-CSF signaling, NOD myeloid cells have abnormally high granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) expression, and as a result, persistent activation of signal transducer/activator of transcription 5 (STAT5). Persistent STAT5 phosphorylation found in NOD macrophages is not affected by inhibiting GM-CSF. However, STAT5 phosphorylation in NOD bone marrow cells is diminished if GM-CSF signaling is blocked. Moreover, if M-CSF signaling is inhibited, GM-CSF stimulationin vitrocan promote STAT5 phosphorylation in nonautoimmune C57BL/6 mouse bone marrow cultures to levels seen in the NOD. These findings suggest that excessive GM-CSF production in the NOD bone marrow may interfere with the temporal sequence of GM-CSF and M-CSF signaling needed to mediate normal STAT5 function in myeloid cell differentiation gene regulation.

Abstract Earlier studies suggested the existence of a blood-bone marrow barrier that significantly inhibits the transfer of plasma macrophage colony- stimulating factor (M-CSF) to responsive hematopoietic cells in vivo as indicated by its failure to induce a receptor downregulation in bone marrow cells. In this study, the effect of recombinant human interleukin-1 (rhuIL-1) was investigated. In vivo administration of rhuIL-1, either intraperitoneally (IP) or intravenously (IV), induced a rapid transient loss of M-CSF receptor binding activity in bone marrow cells, with a nadir occurring between 2 to 4 hours while loss of M-CSF receptors by cells in the peritoneal cavity occurred only in animals receiving rhuIL-1 via IP administration. The loss of M-CSF receptor activity after rhuIL-1 treatment was correlated with an elevated level of circulating M-CSF. However, the loss of M-CSF receptors in marrow cells was prevented by dexamethasone (Dex) treatment before rhuIL-1 administration. The fact that Dex treatment also reduced the level of circulating M-CSF after rhuIL-1 administration suggests that the inhibitory effects of IL-1 are mediated through locally produced M-CSF. Administration of rhuM-CSF at higher doses, either IV or IP, also induced a loss of M-CSF receptor of lesser degree in the marrow cells. However, the loss of M-CSF receptors by the peritoneal cells was induced only in mice receiving rhuM-CSF through IP administration. Taken together, these results indicate the existence of a unidirectional barrier that prevents the transfer of blood M-CSF and IL- 1 to peritoneal cavity but not vice versa.

Abstract To improve the grafting efficiency of transplanted murine hematopoietic progenitors, we briefly preincubated mouse bone marrow cells with interleukin-3 (IL-3) or granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) ex vivo before their transplantation into irradiated recipients. This treatment was translated into an increase in the seeding efficiency of colony-forming unit-spleen (CFU-S) and CFU-GM after transplantation. Not only was the concentration of CFU-S in the tibia increased 2 and 24 hours after transplantation, but the total cell number and CFU-S and CFU-GM concentrations were persistently higher in IL-3- and GM-CSF-treated groups 1 to 3 weeks after transplantation. In addition, the survival of animals as a function of transplanted cell number was persistently higher in IL-3- and GM-CSF- treated groups compared with controls. The data indicate that the pretreatment of marrow cells with IL-3 and GM-CSF before transplantation increases the seeding efficiency of hematopoietic stem cells and probably other progenitor cells after transplantation. This increased efficiency may be mediated by upward modulation of homing receptors. Therefore, ex vivo preincubation of donor marrow cells with IL-3 and GM-CSF may be a useful tactic in bone marrow transplantation.

Abstract Colony forming cells (CFC) with high proliferative potential have been detected in nutrient agar cultures of human bone marrow cells containing recombinant human interleukin-3 (IL-3) and granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF). These CFC were detected by the formation of large colonies with diameters greater than 0.5 mm and containing approximately 50,000 cells after 28 days incubation. The incidence of these CFC was only two in 100,000 normal bone marrow cells; however, bone marrow from patients treated with 5-fluorouracil contained up to sevenfold higher numbers of these CFC. The characteristics of these CFC, multifactor-responsive progenitors with high proliferative potential, requiring a prolonged growth period in culture and showing a relative preservation in marrow from individuals pretreated with 5-fluorouracil, are consistent with a human cell type equivalent to the primitive murine progenitor termed HPP-CFC.

Abstract Although bone resorption and osteoclast numbers are reduced in osteopetrotic (op/op) mice, osteoclasts are nevertheless present and functional, despite the absence of macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF). This suggests that alternative factors can partly compensate for the crucial actions of M-CSF in osteoclast induction. It was found that when nonadherent bone marrow cells were incubated in RANKL with Flt3 ligand (FL) without exogenous M-CSF, tartrate-resistance acid phosphatase (TRAP)–positive cells were formed, and bone resorption occurred. Without FL, only macrophagelike TRAP-negative cells were present. Granulocyte-macrophage CSF, stem cell factor, interleukin-3, and vascular endothelial growth factor could not similarly replace the need for M-CSF. TRAP-positive cell induction in FL was not due to synergy with M-CSF produced by the bone marrow cells themselves because FL also enabled their formation from the hemopoietic cells of op/op mice, which lack any M-CSF. FL appeared to substitute for M-CSF by supporting the differentiation of adherent cells that express mRNA for RANK and responsiveness to RANKL. To determine whether FL can account for the compensation for M-CSF deficiency that occurs in vivo, FL signaling was blockaded in op/op mice by the injection of soluble recombinant Flt3. It was found that the soluble receptor induced a substantial decrease in osteoclast number, strongly suggesting that FL is responsible for the partial compensation for M-CSF deficiency that occurs in these mice.
