Abstract We investigated the effects of recombinant human granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (rhGM-CSF) and recombinant human granulocyte- CSF (rhG-CSF) on the generation of natural killer (NK) cells in vitro. NK cells were cultured from selected human bone marrow cells obtained after the elimination of mature T and NK cells. rhGM-CSF significantly suppressed the generation of CD56+ cells and NK activity (P less than .01) in a dose-dependent manner. The generation of large granular lymphocytes (LGL) was also suppressed in the presence of rhGM-CSF (P less than .01). In contrast, rhG-CSF had no effect on LGL (P greater than .05). Both rhGM-CSF and rhG-CSF had no influence on the CD56+ cell count in the peripheral blood. These results suggest that rhGM-CSF suppresses the in vitro generation of NK cells.

Abstract We investigated the effects of recombinant human granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (rhGM-CSF) and recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rhG-CSF) therapy on the natural killer (NK) cell lineage in patients with aplastic anemia and myelodysplastic syndrome. Selected bone marrow (BM) cells were prepared by the elimination of nylon wool-adherent cells and mature T and NK cells from BM cells. The frequency of BM NK progenitors relative to BM cells selected was significantly decreased 4 weeks after the start of rhGM- CSF therapy (P less than .01), while the peripheral blood NK cell count and NK activity were also significantly decreased (P less than .05). A return to the pretreatment levels was seen 4 weeks after the cessation of treatment in all cases. No suppressive effect was noted in the patients who received rhG-CSF therapy. These results suggest that rhGM- CSF therapy suppresses the generation of NK cells from human BM NK progenitors.

Si-Jun-Zi-Tang is one of the widely used Chinese herbal medicines. In this study, human peripheral blood monocytes were treated in vitro with 50% hot ethanol extract of Si-Jun-Zi-Tang and its four major ingredients (Dangshen, Baizhu, Gancao and Fuling). The concentration of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSP) in the culture supernatant at 3 hours and 18 hours were measured using an ELISA. Dangshen and Gancao significantly suppressed GM-CSP secretion in a dose-dependent manner. Baizhu showed no statistically significant effect on GM-CSP secretion 18 hours after in vitro drug-treatment. Fuling, by contrast, significantly augmented GM-CSP secretion in a dose dependent manner after 18 hours of drug treatment. Si-Jun-Zi-Tang showed a suppressive effect on GM-CSP secretion at 3 hours but significantly augmented GM-CSP secretion when the cells were treated with 8 mg/ml of the drug for 18 hours. The data suggested that Si-Jun-Zi-Tang might modulate hematopoiesis and immune response via regulating GM-CSP secretion, and the presence of Fuling in Si-Jun-Zi-Tang could counteract the suppressive effect of Dangshen and Gancao on GM-CSP secretion.

Macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) is essential for murine osteoclast formation and its role in human hematopoiesis in vitro is not fully defined. Therefore, we have investigated the effect of M-CSF on the formation of human osteoclasts in vitro. M-CSF was found to induce substantial bone resorption and osteoclast formation in a dose-responsive and time-dependent manner above that induced by 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25 vitamin D3) in cultures of human bone marrow (BM) stromal cells sedimented onto devitalized bone. By day 14 there was a mean of approximately 50% of the surfaces of the bone slices resorbed compared with only 6% in cultures treated with 1,25 vitamin D3 alone. Osteoclasts were identified as 23c6+ cells (an antibody that recognizes the vitronectin receptor), 87.5% of which coexpressed the calcitonin receptor. The number of 23c6+ cells correlated strongly with bone resorption spatially, and in a dose-responsive and time-dependent manner; the correlation coefficient in cultures treated with 1,25 vitamin D3 alone was 0.856 and those treated with both M-CSF and 1,25 vitamin D3 was 0.880. Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, IL-1 beta, IL-3, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, transforming growth factor-beta, leukemia inhibitory factor, and IL-11 did not increase bone resorption above that in 1,25 vitamin D3-treated cultures. We also found that 1,25 vitamin D3 increased, to a minor but significant degree, both bone resorption and the concentration of M-CSF in the culture supernatants above that in vehicle-treated cultures, indicating that M-CSF is present in our BM cultures, but that there is insufficient to induce substantial osteoclast formation. These results define a critical role for M-CSF in the formation of human osteoclasts.

NBXFO hybridoma cells produced both the membrane and secreted isoforms of macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF). Murine bone marrow cells stimulated by the secreted form of M-CSF (sM-CSF) became Mac1+, Mac2+, Mac3+, and F4/80+ macrophages that inhibited the growth of NBXFO cells, but not L1210 or P815 tumor cells. In cytotoxicity studies, M- CSF activated macrophages and freshly isolated macrophages killed NBXFO cells in the presence of polymyxin B, eliminating the possibility that contaminating lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was responsible for the delivery of the cytotoxic signal. Retroviral-mediated transfection of T9 glioma cells with the gene for the membrane isoform of M-CSF (mM-CSF), but not for the secreted isoform of M-CSF, transferred the ability of macrophages to kill these transfected T9 cells in a mM-CSF dose- dependent manner. Macrophage-mediated killing of the mM-CSF transfected clone was blocked by using a 100-fold excess of recombinant M-CSF. Catalase, superoxide dismutase, and the nitric oxide inhibitor, N-omega- nitro-arginine methyl ester (NAME), did not effect macrophage cytotoxicity against the mM-CSF transfectant T9 clones. T9 parental cells when cultured in the presence of an equal number of the mM-CSF transfectant cells were not killed, indicating specific target cell cytotoxicity by the macrophages. Electron microscopy showed that macrophages were capable of phagocytosizing mM-CSF bearing T9 tumor cells and NBXFO hybridoma cells; this suggested a possible mechanism of this cytotoxicity. This study indicates that mM-CSF provides the necessary binding and triggering molecules through which macrophages can initiate direct tumor cell cytotoxicity.

The in vivo effect of recombinant murine granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (rGM-CSF) on the resistance of mice to bacterial infection and on the number and function of neutrophils was studied in lethally irradiated mice transplanted with syngeneic bone marrow cells. Bone marrow transplanted (BMT) mice were injected intraperitoneally with 150 ng rGM-CSF or buffer solution (diluent) twice daily for 18 consecutive days. Total neutrophil recovery from the peripheral blood and the number of neutrophils mobilized into the peritoneal cavity were accelerated in rGM-CSF-treated recipients. Peritoneal neutrophils isolated from mice treated with rGM-CSF exhibited primed superoxide generation (O2-) after in vitro stimulation with suboptimal concentrations of phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), as compared with control mice (treated with diluent). No additional increase in O2- production occurred upon in vitro incubation of these cells with rGM- CSF. The protective activity of rGM-CSF was examined in mice injected with Salmonella typhimurium. There was a 44- and 9-fold increase in the number of S typhimurium at 96 hours postinfection in the spleen and liver, respectively, of control mice, as compared with rGM-CSF-treated mice, after a single injection of the bacteria (3 X 10(7) per mouse). All the untreated control mice died within 14 days postinoculation (1 X 10(7) bacteria per mouse), whereas 35% of the mice treated with rGM-CSF remained alive for more than 30 days postinfection. These findings support the concept that increased granulopoiesis and enhanced functional activity of phagocytic cells is induced by rGM-CSF and is responsible for enhanced resistance of BMT mice to bacterial infection.

Neutrophils constitute the first line of host defense against invading microorganisms. Yet their removal from the inflammatory environment is fundamental for injury restraint and resolution of inflammation. Nicotinamide, a component of vitamin B3, is known to modulate cell survival. In this study, we assessed the influence of nicotinamide on neutrophil apoptosis, both in vitro and in vivo in a mouse model of endotoxin-induced lung inflammation. In vitro, nicotinamide promoted apoptosis of human blood neutrophils in a dose-dependent manner in the presence of the apoptosis inhibitors granulocyte colony-stimulating factor and granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor. The highest concentration of nicotinamide completely neutralized the pro-survival effect of granulocyte (macrophage) colony-stimulating factor. Nicotinamide proapoptotic effect was associated with enhanced caspase-3 activity. In addition, nicotinamide slightly reduced neutrophil chemotaxis in vitro. In vivo, pulmonary nicotinamide delivery decreased the levels of cellular and biochemical inflammation markers and increased the percentage of apoptotic neutrophils in bronchoalveolar lavages. Our findings suggest that nicotinamide is an apoptotic stimulus for neutrophils, thereby contributing to the resolution of neutrophilic inflammation in the lungs.
