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.

Abstract Two classes of human marrow megakaryocyte progenitor cells are described. Colony-forming unit-megakaryocyte (CFU-MK)-derived colonies appeared in vitro after 12-day incubation; burst-forming unit- megakaryocyte (BFU-MK)-derived colonies appeared after 21 days. CFU-MK- derived colonies were primarily unifocal and composed of 11.6 +/- 1.2 cells/colony; BFU-MK-derived colonies were composed of 2.3 +/- 0.4 foci and 108.6 +/- 4.4 cells/colony. CFU-MK and BFU-MK were separable by counterflow centrifugal elutriation. CFU-MK colony formation was diminished by exposure to 5-fluorouracil (5-FU); BFU-MK colony formation was unaffected. CFU-MK and BFU-MK were immunologically phenotyped. CFU-MK expressed the human progenitor cell antigen-1 (HPCA- 1, CD34, clone My10) and a major histocompatibility class II locus, HLA- DR, and BFU-MK expressed only detectable amounts of CD34. BFU-MK colony formation was entirely dependent on addition of exogenous hematopoietic growth factors. Recombinant granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and interleukin-3 (IL-3) possessed such colony- stimulating activity, whereas recombinant erythropoietin (Epo), G-CSF, IL-1 alpha, IL-4, and purified thrombocytopoiesis-stimulating factor did not. These studies indicate the existence of a human megakaryocyte progenitor cell, the BFU-MK, which has unique properties allowing it to be distinguished from the CFU-MK.

Human macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF or CSF-1), either in purified or in recombinant form, is able to generate macrophagic colonies in a murine bone marrow colony assay, but only stimulates small macrophagic colonies of 40-50 cells in a human bone marrow colony assay. We report here that recombinant human granulocytic/macrophage colony stimulating factor (rhGM-CSF) at concentrations in the range of picograms enhances the responsiveness of bone marrow progenitors to M-CSF activity, resulting in an increased number of macrophagic colonies of up to 300 cells. Polyclonal antiserum against M-CSF did not alter colony formation of bone marrow progenitors incubated with GM-CSF at optimal concentration (1-10 ng/ml) for these in vitro assays. Thus, GM-CSF at higher concentrations (nanogram range) can by itself, elicit macrophagic colonies, and at lower concentrations (picogram range) acts to enhance the responsiveness of these progenitors to M-CSF.

The activity of protein kinase C (PK-C) has been implicated in the regulation of the growth and differentiation of both normal and neoplastic hematopoietic cells. We have examined the effects of the PK- C-activating agents phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu), mezerein, and bryostatin 1 on the proliferation and lineage commitment of CD34+ human myeloid progenitor cells stimulated by recombinant interleukin-3 (rIL- 3) and/or recombinant granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (rGM-CSF). Although each of the PK-C activators administered alone induced no colony formation, coadministration of these agents with plateau concentrations of each cytokine (eg, 50 ng/mL) increased the number of day 14 granulocyte-macrophage colony-forming units by 100% to 150%. The number of pure and mixed neutrophil and macrophage colonies was substantially enhanced in the presence of PK-C activators, whereas the percentage and, in most cases, the absolute number of eosinophilic colonies was significantly reduced. The inhibition of eosinophilic colony formation was not overcome by the addition of rIL-5. Although addition of bryostatin 1 24 hours before rIL-3 abrogated the increase in total colony formation observed with simultaneous administration of factors, the inhibition of eosinophilic colonies and the increase in neutrophil/macrophage colonies persisted under these conditions. The addition of bryostatin 1 for up to 144 hours after rIL-3 continued to potentiate total colony formation, whereas the inhibition of eosinophilic commitment was lost after 120 hours. Together, these results suggest that pharmacologic interventions at the level of PK-C may regulate both the proliferation as well as the lineage commitment of human hematopoietic progenitors exposed to rGM-CSF and rIL-3.

Abstract We examined the ability of high concentrations of the naturally occurring nucleoside deoxycytidine (dCyd) to reverse the cytotoxicity of high (eg, greater than or equal to 10(-5) mol/L) concentrations of 1- B-D arabinofuranosylcytosine (Ara-C) toward normal (CFU-GM) and leukemic myeloid progenitor cells (L-CFU). Leukemic myeloblasts from patients with acute nonlymphocytic leukemia (ANLL) and normal human bone marrow mononuclear cells were cultured in soft agar in the continuous presence of 10(-5) to 5 X 10(-5) mol/L of Ara-C together with dCyd (10(-4) to 5 X 10(-3) mol/L). Administration of 10(-5) mol/L of Ara-C alone eradicated colony formation in all samples tested. Coadministration of 10(-3) mol/L of dCyd restored 72.2% of control colony formation for CFU-GM, but only 10.9% for L-CFU. When higher concentrations of Ara-C (eg, 5 X 10(-5) mol/L) were administered, dCyd- mediated protection toward CFU-GM decreased, but remained significantly greater than that observed for L-CFU. Incubation with 10(-3) mol/L of dCyd reduced the 4-hour intracellular accumulation of the triphosphate derivative of Ara-C (Ara-CTP) in both normal and leukemic cells by greater than 98%; under identical conditions, a significant expansion of the intracellular of the triphosphate derivative of dCyd (dCTP) pools was observed in normal bone marrow mononuclear cells but not in leukemic blasts. This finding was associated with a greater reduction in Ara-C DNA incorporation in normal elements. These in vitro studies suggest that dCyd may preferentially protect normal v leukemic myeloid progenitor cells from the lethal actions of high-dose Ara-C.

Macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-1α, a CC chemokine, enhances proliferation of mature subsets of myeloid progenitor cells (MPCs), suppresses proliferation of immature MPCs, and mobilizes mature and immature MPCs to the blood. MIP-1α binds at least three chemokine receptors. To determine if CCR1 was dominantly mediating the above activities of MIP-1α, CCR1-deficient (−/−) mice, produced by targeted gene disruption, were used. MIP-1α enhanced colony formation of marrow granulocyte/macrophage colony-forming units (CFU-GM), responsive to stimulation by granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), and CFU-M, responsive to stimulation by M-CSF, from littermate control CCR1+/+ but not CCR1−/− mice. Moreover, MIP-1α did not mobilize MPCs to the blood or synergize with G-CSF in this effect in CCR1−/− mice. However, CCR1−/− mice were increased in sensitivity to MPC mobilizing effects of G-CSF. Multi-growth factor–stimulated MPCs in CCR1−/− and CCR1+/+ marrow were equally sensitive to inhibition by MIP-1α. These results implicate CCR1 as a dominant receptor for MIP-1α enhancement of proliferation of lineage-committed MPCs and for mobilization of MPCs to the blood. CCR1 is not a dominant receptor for MIP-1α suppression of MPC proliferation, but it does negatively impact G-CSF–induced MPC mobilization.
