Abstract Two separate helper T cell-derived lymphokines, interleukin 3 and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating activity-2, were found to stimulate a broad and similar range of hemopoietic colonies in in vitro soft agar cultures including granulocyte, macrophage, granulocyte- macrophage, megakaryocyte, and mixed megakaryocyte colonies. Both lymphokines were potent stimulators of in vitro megakaryocyte colony formation. At plateau levels of IL-3, megakaryocyte colony formation was increased by biologic activity in pokeweed mitogen spleen- conditioned media.

Abstract Purified recombinant (r) macrophage inflammatory proteins (MIPs) 1 alpha, 1 beta, and 2 were assessed for effects on murine (mu) and human (hu) marrow colony-forming unit-granulocyte-macrophage (CFU-GM) and burst-forming unit-erythroid (BFU-E) colonies. Recombinant MIP-1 alpha, -1 beta, and -2 enhanced muCFU-GM colonies above that stimulated with 10 to 100 U natural mu macrophage-colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) or rmuGM-CSF, with enhancement seen on huCFU-GM colony formation stimulated with suboptimal rhuM-CSF or rhuGM-CSF; effects were neutralized by respective MIP-specific antibodies. Macrophage inflammatory proteins had no effects on mu or huBFU-E colonies stimulated with erythropoietin (Epo). However, natural MIP-1 and rMIP-1 alpha, but not rMIP-1 beta or -2, suppressed muCFU-GM stimulated with pokeweed mitogen spleen-conditioned medium (PWMSCM), huCFU-GM stimulated with optimal rhuGM-CSF plus rhu interleukin-3 (IL-3), muBFU- E and multipotential progenitors (CFU-GEMM) stimulated with Epo plus PWMSCM, and huBFU-E and CFU-GEMM stimulated with Epo plus rhuIL-3 or rhuGM-CSF. The suppressive effects of natural MIP-1 and rMIP-1 alpha were also apparent on a population of BFU-E, CFU-GEMM, and CFU-GM present in cell-sorted fractions of human bone marrow (CD34 HLA-DR+) highly enriched for progenitors with cloning efficiencies of 42% to 75%. These results, along with our previous studies, suggest that MIP-1 alpha, -1 beta, and -2 may have direct myelopoietic enhancing activity for mature progenitors, while MIP-1 alpha may have direct suppressing activity for more immature progenitors.

Recombinant gibbon interleukin-3 (IL-3) is a multilineage hematopoietic colony-stimulating factor (CSF) that recently was cloned and found to be highly homologous with human IL-3. Gibbon IL-3, as well as human granulocyte-CSF (G-CSF) and human granulocyte-macrophage CSF (GM-CSF), stimulated normal human bone marrow cells to form myeloid colonies in soft agar in a sigmoidal dose-response manner. When IL-3 was added to increasing concentrations of G-CSF or GM-CSF, synergistic colony formation occurred as compared with the effects of each CSF alone. Synergism was also noted when G-CSF was added with GM-CSF and when all the CSFs were added simultaneously. The combination of IL-3 and GM-CSF was less stimulatory than all the other CSF combinations. At day 11 of culture, IL-3 induced granulocyte-macrophage (38%), eosinophil (30%), granulocyte (18%), and macrophage (14%) colony formation. In summary, gibbon IL-3 is a growth factor that can synergize with other CSFs to enhance proliferation of myeloid-committed progenitors, suggesting that combinations of CSFs may have clinical utility in patients with neutropenia of various etiologies.

Expression of the granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM- CSF) gene in acute myelocytic leukemia (AML) was assayed by Northern blot analysis. GM-CSF messenger RNA (mRNA) was detected in the freshly obtained mononuclear cells of only one of 48 cases of AML, in contrast with recent reports that GM-CSF mRNA might be detected in half of the cases of AML when RNA is prepared from T-cell- and monocyte-depleted leukemic cells. We did find, however, that expression of the GM-CSF gene was detectable in five of ten cases after in vitro T-cell and monocyte depletion steps. Additional studies suggest that expression of GM-CSF in the bone marrow of the one positive case, rather than being autonomous, was under exogenous control, possibly by a paracrine factor secreted by marrow stromal cells. These studies emphasize the potential for altering in vivo patterns of gene expression by in vitro cell manipulation.

The normal myeloid hematopoietic regulatory proteins include one class of proteins that induces viability and multiplication of normal myeloid precursor cells to form colonies (colony-stimulating factors [CSF] and interleukin 3 [IL-3], macrophage and granulocyte inducing proteins, type 7 [MGI-1]) and another class (called MGI-2) that induces differentiation of normal myeloid precursors without inducing cell multiplication. Different clones of myeloid leukemic cells can differ in their response to these regulatory proteins. One type of leukemic clone can be differentiated in vitro to mature cells by incubating with the growth-inducing proteins granulocyte-macrophage (GM) CSF or IL-3, and another type of clone can be differentiated in vitro to mature cells by the differentiation-inducing protein MGI-2. We have now studied the ability of different myeloid regulatory proteins to induce the in vivo differentiation of these different types of mouse myeloid leukemic clones in normal and cyclophosphamide-treated mice. The results show that in both types of mice (a) the in vitro GM-CSF- and IL- 3-sensitive leukemic cells were induced to differentiate to mature cells in vivo in mice injected with pure recombinant GM-CSF and IL-3 but not with G-CSF, M-CSF, or MGI-2; (b) the in vitro MGI-2-sensitive leukemic cells differentiated in vivo by injection of MGI-2 and also, presumably indirectly, by GM-CSF and IL-3 but not by M-CSF or G-CSF; (c) in vivo induced differentiation of the leukemic cells was associated with a 20- to 60-fold decrease in the number of blast cells; and (d) all the injected myeloid regulatory proteins stimulated the normal myelopoietic system. Different normal myeloid regulatory proteins can thus induce in vivo terminal differentiation of leukemic cells, and it is suggested that these proteins can have a therapeutic potential for myeloid leukemia in addition to their therapeutic potential in stimulating normal hematopoiesis.

Pokeweed mitogen-induced immunoglobulin (Ig) production by cord lymphocytes was studied in vitro by Ig-secreting plaque-forming cell (Ig-PFC) assay. Although adult mononuclear cells generated all of IgM-, IgG-, and IgA-PFC, cord mononuclear cells generated only IgM-PFC when cultured for seven days. The number of cord IgM-PFC was 102 ± 26/104 mononuclear cells, being about one fourth of that of adult IgM-PFC. When cultured for 14 days, cord mononuclear cells formed increased numbers of IgM-PFC in contrast to adult cells, and yielded IgG-PFC as well, indicating delayed Ig production. Cord T cells were much less effective at helping adult B cells to differentiate into Ig-PFC as compared with adult T cells. Substitution of adult T cells for cord T cell markedly improved the response of cord B cells. The present study demonstrates Ig secretion by cord lymphocytes in response to pokeweed mitogen stimulation. The results further indicate that the delayed Ig production by cord lymphocytes is largely due to functional immaturity of the T cells.

Abstract The recent identification of a leukemia-associated inhibitory activity (LIA) against granulocyte-macrophage progenitor cells (CFU-GM) as acidic isoferritins has now led to detection of this activity in normal bone marrow and blood cells. Detection of this activity depends on stimulation of CFU-GM by granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulatory factors (GM-CSF), and some conditioned media (CM) sources of GM-CSF (human placental and monocyte, mouse macrophage and WEHI-3) contained low levels of acidic isoferritin that lowered colony formation. Inactivation or removal of this activity increased the stimulatory capacity of the CM. CM depleted of acidic isoferritins or CM originally devoid of this activity (human GCT, 5637, Mo, lymphocytes: mouse L cells or pokeweed-mitogen-stimulated spleen cells) increased the sensitivity of the assay to detect acidic isoferritin inhibitory activity. This activity was selectively contained and released from normal monocytes and macrophages. Restriction of this activity to mononuclear phagocytes was substantiated, as only continuous cell lines of monocytes and macrophages or lines capable of induction to this lineage contained and released acidic isoferritin inhibitory activity. The cells of origin and target cells of action suggest that acidic isoferritin-inhibitory activity can be considered as a negative feedback regulator, at least in vitro.
