Human dendritic cell (DC) precursors were engrafted and maintained in NOD/SCID- human chimeric mice (NOD/SCID-hu mice) implanted with human cord blood mononuclear cells, although no mature human DCs were detected in lymphoid organs of the mice. Two months after implantation, bone marrow (BM) cells of NOD/SCID-hu mice formed colonies showing DC morphology and expressing CD1a in methylcellulose culture with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α). The CD34−/CD4+/HLA-DR+ cell fraction in NOD/SCID-hu mouse BM generated CD1a+ cells that were highly stimulatory in mixed leukocyte reactions in culture with GM-CSF and TNF-α. These results suggest a strong potential for NOD/SCID-hu BM to generate human DCs, although DC differentiation may be blocked at the CD34−/CD4+/HLA-DR+ stage.

Bone marrow (BM) stromal cells are required for normal hematopoiesis. A number of soluble factors secreted by these cells that mediate hematopoiesis have been characterized. However, the mechanism of hematopoiesis cannot be explained solely by these known factors, and the existence of other, still unknown stromal factors has been postulated. We showed that hepatocyte growth factor (HGF ) is one such cytokine produced by human BM stromal cells. BM stromal cells were shown to constitutively produce HGF and also to express the c-MET/HGF receptor. The production of HGF was enhanced by addition of heparin and phorbol ester. Dexamethasone and tumor growth factor-β (TGF-β) inhibited the production of HGF. Interleukin-1α (IL-1α) tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and N6,2′-o-dibutyryl-adenosine-3′:5′-cyclic monophosphate (dbc-AMP) showed no obvious influence on HGF production. Western blot analysis of HGF derived from BM stromal cells showed two bands at 85 and 28 kD corresponding to native and variant HGF, respectively. Addition of recombinant HGF significantly promoted the formation of burst-forming unit-erythroid (BFU-E) and colony-forming unit-granulocyte erythroid macrophage (CFU-GEM) by BM mononuclear cells in the presence of erythropoietin and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF ), but the formation of CFU-GM was not modified. However, HGF had no effects on colony formation by purified CD34+ cells. Within BM mononuclear cells, c-MET was expressed on a proportion of cells (CD34−, CD33+, CD13+, CD14+, and CD15+), but was not found on CD34+ cells. We conclude that HGF is constitutively produced by BM stromal cells and that it enhances hematopoiesis. In addition, expression of c-MET on the stromal cells suggests the presence of an autocrine mechanism, operating through HGF, among stromal cells.

The incidence of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is increasing worldwide. Activation of Kupffer cells (KCs) is central to the development of diet-induced NASH. We investigated whether a combination of two active chemical components, geniposide and chlorogenic acid (GC), at a specific ratio (67 : 1), ameliorates diet-induced NASH and the underlying mechanisms involved. C57BL/6J mice exposed to a high-fat and high-cholesterol (HFHC) diet containing cholesterol, choline, and high-sugar drinking water, as well as RAW264.7 cells stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) were studied. The combination exerted a therapeutic effect on HFHC-induced NASH in mice. Simultaneously, GC was found to reduce the expression of cytokines secreted by hepatic macrophages, including tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1α (IL-1α), IL-1β, IL-6, monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (MCP-1), and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). Moreover, GC reduced the number of KCs expressing F4/80. Furthermore, TNF-α, inducible nitric oxide synthase (INOS), IL-1β, and IL-6 mRNA and TNF-α protein expression levels were suppressed upon GC treatment in RAW264.7 cells. Our findings suggest that GC has a strong anti-inflammatory effect in NASH, and this effect can be attributed to the suppression of KC activity in the liver.

Abstract A complete hematologic remission was achieved in a patient with therapy- related preleukemia and transfusion-dependent pancytopenia after treatment with recombinant human granulocyte-macrophage colony- stimulating factor (GM-CSF). The patient remained in remission for nearly 1 year despite the discontinuation of GM-CSF treatment. Several lines of evidence suggest that normal hematopoiesis was restored after GM-CSF treatment. First, the cytogenetic anomaly, which was present before GM-CSF, completely disappeared after three cycles of treatment. Cytogenetic conversion was documented by conventional karyotypic evaluation of mitotic bone marrow cell preparations as well as by premature chromosome condensation analysis of the nonmitotic cells of bone marrow and peripheral blood. Second, the growth pattern and cycle status of bone marrow granulocyte-macrophage (CFU-GM) and erythroid (BFU-E) progenitor cells were found to be normal during remission. Third, X chromosome-linked restriction fragment length polymorphism- methylation analysis of DNA from mononuclear cells (greater than 80% lymphocytes) and mature myeloid elements showed a polyclonal pattern. These findings suggest that restoration of hematopoiesis in this patient after GM-CSF treatment may have resulted from suppression of the abnormal clone and a selective growth advantage of normal elements.

Alterations in hematopoiesis are common in experimental infectious disease. However, few studies have addressed the mechanisms underlying changes in hematopoietic function or assessed the direct impact of infectious agents on the cells that regulate these processes. In experimental visceral leishmaniasis, caused by infection with the protozoan parasite Leishmania donovani, parasites persist in the spleen and bone marrow, and their expansion in these sites is associated with increases in local hematopoietic activity. The results of this study show that L donovani targets bone marrow stromal macrophages in vivo and can infect and multiply in stromal cell lines of macrophage, but not other lineages in vitro. Infection of stromal macrophages increases their capacity to support myelopoiesis in vitro, an effect mediated mainly through the induction of granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor and tumor necrosis factor-. These data are the first to directly demonstrate that intracellular parasitism of a stromal cell population may modify its capacity to regulate hematopoiesis during infectious disease.

Polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNLs) are thought to be terminally differentiated, short-lived, and unable to actively synthesize new proteins or to interact with T cells. In the current study, it was found that PMNLs incubated with supernatants of phytohemagglutinin (PHA)-stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PHA-sup) expressed high levels of CCR6 mRNA. Neutralization with IgG against several cytokines revealed that tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α was largely responsible for the PHA-sup–induced CCR6 mRNA expression. Among recombinant cytokines, TNF-α induced high levels of CCR6 mRNA expression, whereas interferon (IFN)-γ induced low levels. The 2 cytokines together exhibited a considerable synergy. Cytokine-activated PMNLs expressed functional CCR6, as detected by the binding of sodium iodide I 125–labeled liver and activation-regulated chemokine (LARC) and dose-dependent migration toward LARC. The induction of CCR6 suggested that these cytokine-activated PMNLs have more similarities with dendritic cells (DCs) that express CCR6 in an immature stage. In fact, the activation of PMNLs with TNF-α and IFN-γ induced the expression of CD83, a dominant cell-surface marker of DCs. When PMNLs were activated with granulocyte macrophage–colony-stimulating factor, TNF-α, and IFN-γ, these cells expressed CD40 and HLA-DR in addition to CD83. Taken together, PMNLs, under appropriate conditions, can undergo a differentiation process characterized by the acquisition of new phenotypes and functions, and such differentiated PMNLs may play more active roles in the adaptive immune response.

Abstract Mature human dendritic cells can be generated in substantial numbers from nonproliferating progenitors in human blood using a two-step protocol. T cell–depleted mononuclear cells are first cultured with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor and interleukin-4 (IL-4) and then exposed to monocyte conditioned medium (MCM). The dendritic cells generated using this approach are rendered terminally mature and are the most potent antigen presenting cells identified to date in humans. We sought to characterize factors in MCM that induce the terminal differentiation of dendritic cells. MCM contained substantial, although varying, quantities of several factors including tumor necrosis factor-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and interferon-α. However, none of the four factors, individually or in various combinations, could fully substitute for the MCM to generate irreversibly differentiated dendritic cells. The yields, percentage of cells expressing the mature phase marker CD83, and mixed leukocyte reaction–stimulatory function were lower when defined cytokines were used in the place of MCM. Therefore, the full maturation of dendritic cells, because it entails changes in many known cell and molecular properties, requires a number of different cytokines that are released in tandem from appropriately stimulated monocytes. We propose that MCM-matured dendritic cells will be the most effective adjuvants for immunotherapy in vivo.

Dendritic cells (DCs), which phagocytose antigens and subsequently proliferate and migrate, may be the most powerful antigen-presenting cells that activate naive T cells. To determine their role in the immune response to tumors, we used WEHI-3B murine leukemia cells transduced with adenovirus vectors expressing cytokines. We found that mixtures of irradiated cells expressing granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) plus those expressing interleukin-4 (IL-4) or tumor necrosis factor  (TNF) protected mice against WEHI-3B–induced leukemias. When bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMMNCs) obtained from mice that had been injected with irradiated, cytokine-expressing tumor cells were injected into tumor-bearing mice, the survival of the latter was significantly prolonged; the longest survival was observed in mice receiving BMMNCs containing an increased number of DCs from animals injected with a mixture of tumor cells expressing GM-CSF with those expressing IL-4. Assay for antileukemic effects in spleen of the latter animals showed specific antitumor cytotoxicity against WEHI-3B, suggesting that DCs from donor mice activate specific T cells in the tumor-bearing recipients. These results suggest that the infusion of syngeneic BMMNCs stimulated with cytokine-expressing tumor cells may be effective in treating certain types of tumors.

Hemopoietic CD34+ progenitors were isolated by immunomagnetic method from normal bone marrow (BM) or from peripheral blood (PB) of patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma treated with chemotherapy and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (GCSF). Aliquots were seeded in longterm cultures (LTC) on bone marrow-derived stromal layers; non-adherent and adherent clonogenic content of the cultures was assayed weekly. The final recovery and the clonogenic efficiency of the CD34+ cells were sligthly higher in PB samples than in BM controls. In long term cultures PB cells sustained hemopoiesis as much as BM cells; at week 3 and 4 PB total mononuclear cells and CD34+ cells showed a non-adherent cell recovery higher than the respective BM controls. Furthermore, PB CD34+ cells were expanded in liquid culture in the presence of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) or G-CSF alone or combined with interleukin 3 (IL3), stem cell factor (SCF), interleukin 1 (IL 1), interleukin 6 (IL6). The combination of GM-CSF, IL3, SCF, IL 1 and IL6 produced the maximum increase of both mononuclear cells (30-fold) and granulocyte-macrophage colony forming units (CFU-GM) (4.6-fold) after 7 days of cultures; yet after 14 days a strong decrease of the CFU-GM occurred. These data suggest that G-CSF following chemotherapy mobilizes both early and committed hemopoietic progenitors.
