Abstract Numerous studies have shown that interferon-gamma (IFN gamma) inhibits the proliferative effects of colony-stimulating factors (CSFs) on human bone marrow cells. In the present study we investigated the effects of IFN gamma and other described inhibitory factors on the proliferation of highly purified CD34+ human hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPC) in response to recombinant CSFs. While transforming growth factor-beta (TGF beta) and IFN alpha were highly inhibitory, IFN gamma strongly potentiated interleukin-3 (IL-3) and, to a lesser extent, granulocyte- macrophage-CSF (GM-CSF) induced growth of CD34+ HPC. IFN gamma had no significant proliferative effect per se, and did not affect granulocyte- CSF (G-CSF)-dependent cell proliferation. Within 10 days the number of viable cells generated in the presence of IL-3 + IFN gamma was two times higher than in the presence of IL-3 alone. Limiting dilution analysis showed that IFN gamma acts directly on its target cell to increase the frequency of IL-3-responding cells without affecting the average size of the IL-3-dependent clones. Enhanced frequency of IL-3- and GM-CSF-responding cells was also observed in colony assays where the addition of IFN gamma increased by twofold to threefold the number of granulocyte colony-forming units (CFU-G), macrophage CFUs (CFU-M), granulocyte-macrophage CFUs (CFU-GM), and mixed erythroid (E-MIX). In contrast, IFN gamma did not affect the generation of erythroid burst- forming units (BFU-e) in such cultures. In longer-term culture, the combination of IFN gamma and IL-3 did not alter the lineage distribution of the cells when compared with IL-3 alone. However, after 15 days, when mature cells were present in the cultures, IFN gamma displayed cell concentration-related growth-inhibitory effects. Thus, IFN gamma appears to stimulate the early stage of myelopoiesis by enhancing the frequency of growth factor-responding cells but, unlike tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha), does not alter cell differentiation.

To assess the effects of interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) on very primitive hematopoietic progenitor cells, CD34(2+)CD38- human bone marrow cells were isolated and cultured in a two-stage culture system, consisting of a primary liquid culture phase followed by a secondary semisolid colony assay. CD34(2+)CD38- cells needed at least the presence of interleukin 3 (IL-3) and kit ligand (KL) together with either IL-1, IL-6, or granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) in the primary liquid phase in order to proliferate and differentiate into secondary colony-forming cells (CFC). Addition of IFN-gamma to the primary liquid cultures inhibited cell proliferation and generation of secondary CFC in a dose-dependent way. This was a direct effect since it was also seen in primary single cell cultures of CD34(2+)CD38- cells. The proliferation of more mature CD34+CD38+ cells, however, was not inhibited by IFN-gamma, demonstrating for the first time that IFN-gamma is a specific and direct hematopoietic stem cell inhibitor. IFN-gamma, moreover, preserves the viability of CD34(2+)CD38- cells in the absence of other cytokines. IFN-gamma could, therefore, play a role in the protection of the stem cell compartment from exhaustion in situations of hematopoietic stress and may be useful as stem cell protecting agent against chemotherapy for cancer.

We have recently demonstrated that CD11b−/dullCD11c+ and CD11b+hiCD11c+ dendritic cell (DC) precursor subsets represent two distinct DC differentiation pathways from murine bone marrow lineage-phenotype negative (Lin−)c-kit+ hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) stimulated with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) + stem cell factor (SCF) + tumor necrosis factor  (TNF). We show here that transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) significantly inhibits the generation of these CD11b−/dullCD11c+ and CD11b+hiCD11c+ DC precursors. Phenotypically, this inhibitory effect was accompanied by markedly suppressed expression of Ia and CD86 antigens as well as major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II transactivator (CIITA) and CC-chemokine receptor 7 (CCR7) mRNAs in Lin−c-kit+ HPC cultures stimulated with GM-CSF + SCF + TNF at day 6. TGF-β1 could also suppress mature DC differentiation from CD11b+hiCD11c+ DC precursors, but not the differentiation from CD11b−/dullCD11c+ DC precursors. In the absence of TNF, TGF-β1 markedly suppressed the expression of CIITA and CCR7 mRNAs in GM-CSF + SCF-stimulated Lin−c-kit+ HPCs at either day 6 or day 12 and induced the differentiation solely into monocytes/macrophages as evident in morphology, active phagocytic, and endocytic activities. These cells expressed high levels of F4/80 and E-cadherin antigens, but low or undetectable levels of Ia, CD86, and CD40 molecules. However, upon the stimulation with TNF + GM-CSF, these cells could further differentiate into mature DCs expressing high levels of Ia and E-cadherin, characteristics for Langerhans cells (LCs), and gained the capacity of enhancing allogenic MLR. Taken together, all of these findings suggest that TGF-β1 polarizes murine HPCs to generate LC-like DCs through a monocyte/macrophage differentiation pathway.

Human CD34+ hematopoietic progenitor cells, stringently purified from the peripheral blood of 20 normal donors, showed an impaired survival and clonogenic capacity after exposure to either heat-inactivated human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) 1 (strain IIIB) or cross-linked envelope gp120. Cell cycle analysis, performed at different times in serum-free liquid culture, showed an accumulation in G0/G1 in HIV-1- or gp120-treated cells and a progressive increase of cells with subdiploid DNA content, characteristic of apoptosis. In blocking experiments with anti-transforming growth factor (TGF) beta 1 neutralizing serum or TGF-beta 1 oligonucleotides, we demonstrated that the HIV-1- or gp120-mediated suppression of CD34+ cell growth was almost entirely due to an upregulation of endogenous TGF-beta 1 produced by purified hematopoietic progenitors. Moreover, by using a sensitive assay on the CCL64 cell line, increased levels of bioactive TGF-beta 1 were recovered in the culture supernatant of HIV-1/gp120-treated CD34+ cells. Anti-TGF-beta 1 neutralizing serum or TGF-beta 1 oligonucleotides were also effective in inducing a significant increase of the plating efficiency of CD34+ cells, purified from the peripheral blood of three HIV-1-seropositive individuals, suggesting that a similar mechanism may be also operative in vivo. The relevance of these findings to a better understanding of the pathogenesis of HIV-1-related cytopenias is discussed.

Since monocytes and macrophages that arise during the culture of bone marrow progenitor cells are potential sources of interleukin 6 (IL-6), we investigated whether auto- or paracrine production of this factor is involved in colony formation by normal hematopoietic progenitor cells. We added a polyclonal anti-IL-6 antiserum and a monoclonal anti-IL-6 antibody to cultures of monocyte- and T cell-depleted bone marrow cells. Colony formation was stimulated with granulocyte/monocyte-colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), monocyte-CSF, or IL-3. Addition of anti-IL-6 antibody resulted in decreased numbers of monocytic colonies to 40-50% of control values, whereas the numbers of granulocytic colonies were not altered. The inhibitory effect was preserved in cultures of CD34(+)-enriched bone marrow cells. As a second approach, we added a monoclonal antibody directed against the IL-6 receptor to cultures of monocyte- and T cell-depleted bone marrow cells. This antibody almost completely inhibited the growth of monocytic colonies, again without decreasing the number of granulocytic colonies. Finally, the importance of IL-6 in monocytopoiesis was demonstrated in serum-deprived bone marrow cultures: addition of exogenous IL-6 to cultures stimulated with GM-CSF resulted in increased numbers of monocytic colonies. Our results indicate that the permissive presence of IL-6 is required for optimal monocytic colony formation by bone marrow progenitor cells.

Adenosine A3 receptor agonist N6-(3-iodobenzyl)adenosine-5’-Nmethyluronamide (IB-MECA) has been tested from the point of view of potentiating the effects of hematopoietic growth factors interleukin-3 (IL-3), stem cell factor (SCF), granulocytemacrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) on the growth of hematopoietic progenitor cells for granulocytes and macrophages (GM-CFC) in suspension of normal mouse bone marrow cells in vitro. IB-MECA alone induced no GM-CFC growth. Significant elevation of numbers of GM-CFC evoked by the combinations of IB-MECA with IL-3, SCF, or GM-CSF as compared with these growth factors alone has been noted. Combination of IB-MECA with G-CSF did not induce significantly higher numbers of GM-CFC in comparison with G-CSF alone. Joint action of three drugs, namely of IB-MECA + IL-3 + GM-CSF, produced significantly higher numbers of GM-CFC in comparison with the combinations of IB-MECA + IL-3, IB-MECA + GM-CSF, or IL-3 + GM-CSF. These results give evidence of a significant role of selective activation of adenosine A3 receptors in stimulation of the growth of granulocyte/ macrophage hematopoietic progenitor cells.

Abstract Mitotic arrest deficiency 2 (Mad2) is a component of the mitotic spindle checkpoint complex and is essential for accurate chromosome segregation. We previously reported that Mad2 is involved in synergistic proliferation of hematopoietic progenitor cells in response to SCF combined with GM-CSF, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Recently, it was reported that Mad2 physically associates with common β chain (βc) of GM-CSF receptor. Because c-Kit constitutively binds to βc, we hypothesized that Mad2 protein physically associates with c-Kit receptor. We examined if Mad2 interacts with c-Kit using human growth factor-dependent cell line, MO7e, which expresses both c-Kit and GM-CSF receptors. Immunoprecipitation assays demonstrated interaction of c-Kit with Mad2. We then examined whether the interaction of Mad2 with c-Kit is cytokine dependent. Mad2 dissociates from c-Kit after stimulation with SCF plus GM-CSF, but not with SCF or GM-CSF alone. Additionally, because bone marrow hematopoietic progenitor cells from Mad2+/− mice lack synergy in response to SCF plus GM-CSF, it is possible that interaction of Mad2 with c-Kit mediates their synergistic proliferative effects. To address this, we examined intracellular cytokine signaling and apoptosis in MO7e cells depleted of Mad2 by RNA interference. We observed no difference between control and Mad2-depleted cells in phosphorylation of Erk1/2 at Thr202/Tyr204 and Akt at Ser473 after synergistic stimulation with SCF plus GM-CSF. In contrast, the percent of apoptosis of Mad2-depleted cells was significantly higher than that of control (26.2±0.7% vs. 20.3±0.4%, P<0.01). This was compatible with the results of apoptosis assays using c-Kit+Lineage− bone marrow cells from Mad2+/− and wild type mice. These results suggest that Mad2 may be involved in synergistic proliferation of hematopoietic progenitor cells via regulation of apoptosis rather than early cytokine signaling. These effects are likely mediated through Mad2 interaction with c-Kit and the beta chain of the GM-CSF receptor.
