To investigate cellular mechanisms involved in thyroid hormone stimulation of erythropoiesis, we studied the response of erythroid burst-forming unit (BFU-E) proliferation to L-triiodothyronine (L-T3) in a serum-free culture system. When added directly to culture, L-T3 stimulates erythroid burst formation by normal human bone marrow cells. In contrast, granulocyte-macrophage colony formation is unaffected. Enhancement of erythroid burst formation by L-T3 required the presence of nylon wool adherent and/or B-4 antigen-positive light-density marrow populations. Addition of other erythropoietic factors including platelet-derived growth factor and insulinlike growth factor II did not abrogate this apparent cellular requirement. Pulse exposure of marrow and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (greater than 95% lymphocytes) to L-T3 accelerates the release of a soluble factor that augments BFU-E proliferation into serum-free liquid culture medium. Time-course studies show that this factor appears in conditioned medium (CM) coincidentally with erythroid burst-promoting activity (BPA). Furthermore, incubation of CM with an antibody known to react with and adsorb BPA from solution removes the inducible mitogen. Biochemical analysis of CM prepared from unexposed and L-T3 pulse-exposed cells indicates that the rate of protein appearance is accelerated by L-T3 in a fashion that immediately precedes growth factor release and that several polypeptides are quantitatively increased. We conclude that unlike erythropoietin, which is mitogenic for progenitor cells directly, L-T3 enhances BFU-E proliferation indirectly by augmenting the release of soluble BPA-like molecules from accessory cells in culture.

Cells from three children with juvenile chronic myelogenous leukemia were studied using culture in semisolid media, cytogenetic analysis, and surface staining with the monocyte-specific monoclonal antibodies 61D3 and 63D3. The percentage of bone marrow mononuclear cells that were 61D3- and 63D3-positive was markedly increased in all three patients. Bone marrow and peripheral blood mononuclear cells exhibited exceptionally bright immunofluorescence with these antibodies. The presence of monocyte-specific antigens on the surface of juvenile chronic myelogenous leukemia cells suggests that they are derived from a precursor with monocytic characteristics. A specific chromosomal abnormality (47, XY+21) was present in fresh bone marrow cells from one patient; in contrast, 50 metaphases from phytohemagglutinin-stimulated peripheral blood contained a normal karyotype. The chromosomal abnormality was also identified in myeloid colonies grown in vitro from this patient. Granulocytic elements were demonstrated in tissue sections and in cultured myeloid colonies from this child. Our data suggest that malignant transformation in juvenile chronic myelogenous leukemia involves a myeloid progenitor population capable of differentiation in vitro to cells with monocytic or granulocytic characteristics.

Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is a rare vascular disorder inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. Patients with HHT can develop vascular dysplasias called telangiectasias and arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). Our objective was to profile and characterize micro-RNAs (miRNAs), short noncoding RNAs that regulate gene expression posttranscriptionally, in HHT patient-derived peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). PBMCs, comprised mostly of lymphocytes and monocytes, have been reported to be dysfunctional in HHT. A total of 40 clinically confirmed HHT patients and 22 controls were enrolled in this study. PBMCs were isolated from 16 mL of peripheral blood and purified for total RNA. MiRNA expression profiling was conducted with a human miRNA array analysis. Select dysregulated miRNAs and miRNA targets were validated with reverse transcription–quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Of the 377 miRNAs screened, 41 dysregulated miRNAs were identified. Both miR-28-5p and miR-361-3p, known to target insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1), a potent angiogenic growth factor, were found to be significantly downregulated in HHT patients. Consequently, IGF1 mRNA levels were found to be significantly elevated. Our research successfully identified miRNA dysregulation and elevated IGF1 mRNA levels in PBMCs from HHT patients. This novel discovery represents a potential pathogenic mechanism that could be targeted to alleviate clinical manifestations of HHT.

A panel of human cell lines was screened for production of colony- stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) using a specific radioreceptor assay and criterion of macrophage colony growth in mouse bone marrow culture. The pancreatic carcinoma lines MIA PaCa and PANC were found to secrete high levels of CSF-1. In a bone marrow proliferation assay, the activities from these two lines were blocked by a CSF-1 specific neutralizing antiserum, confirming the predominant content of this macrophage growth factor. MIA PaCA cells stopped secreting CSF-1 when transferred to various serum-free media. Serum-free production could be reinitiated by phorbol myristic acetate (PMA). Purified CSF-1 from serum-free MIA PaCa cells stimulated the formation of 14-day colonies from total and nonadherent mononuclear human bone marrow cells. Most of the colonies consisted exclusively of large, dispersed macrophages that were intensely stained for nonspecific esterase. Although similar numbers of human 14-day colonies were stimulated by CSF-1 and other CSFs, more CSF- 1 was required for the proliferation of human as compared with murine bone marrow progenitors. Northern analysis of mRNA from induced-MIA PaCa cells, using a human CSF-1 oligonucleotide probe, revealed multiple species of CSF-1 mRNA ranging from 1.5 to 4.5 kilobases (kb). Uninduced, serum-free cultures showed only the largest mRNA species, suggesting that serum removal interfered with CSF-1 mRNA processing related to synthesis and/or secretion of the protein. Regulation of the production of CSF-1 may be an important physiological process in hematopoiesis and macrophage functioning.
