In chronic murine schistosomiasis, extramedullar myelopoiesis was observed, with proliferation of myeloid cells in liver parenchyma and in periovular granulomas. We have studied the question of whether cells obtained from granulomatous connective tissue may act as myelopoietic stroma, supporting long-term myeloid proliferation. Primary cell lines (GR) were obtained in vitro from periovular granulomas, induced in mouse livers by Schistosoma mansoni infection. These cells were characterized as myofibroblasts, and represent liver connective tissue cells involved in fibro-granulomatous reactions. They were able to sustain survival and proliferation of the multipotent myeloid cell lines FDC-P1 and DA-1 (dependent on interleukin-3 and/or granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor, GM-CSF) without the addition of exogenous growth factors. This stimulation was dependent upon myeloid cell attachment to the GR cell layer; GR cell-conditioned medium had no activity. Primary murine skin fibroblasts could not sustain myelopoiesis. The endogenous growth-factor was identified as GM-CSF by neutralization assays with monoclonal antibodies. The stimulation of myelopoiesis occurred also when GR cells had been fixed with glutardialdehyde. The observed stimulatory activity was dependent upon heparan sulphate proteoglycans (HSPGs) associated with GR cell membranes. It could be dislodged from the cell layer with heparin or a high salt buffer. Our results indicate a molecular interaction between endogenous growth-factor and HSPGs; this interaction may be responsible for the stabilization and presentation of growth factors in myelopoietic stromas, mediating extramedullar proliferation of myeloid cells in periovular granulomas.

In previous studies, we have shown that the myelopoiesis dependent upon myelosupportive stroma required production of growth factors and heparan-sulphate proteoglycans, as well as generation of a negatively charged sialidase-sensitive intercellular environment between the stroma and the myeloid progenitors. In the present study, we have investigated the production, distribution and role of gangliosides in an experimental model of in vitro myelopoiesis dependent upon AFT-024 murine liver-derived stroma. We used the FDC-P1 cell line, which is dependent upon GM-CSF (granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor) for both survival and proliferation, as a reporter system to monitor bioavailability and local activity of GM-CSF. GM3 was the major ganglioside produced by stroma, but not by myeloid cells, and it was required for optimal stroma myelosupportive function. It was released into the supernatant and selectively incorporated into the myeloid progenitor cells, where it segregated into rafts in which it co-localized with the GM-CSF-receptor α chain. This ganglioside was also metabolized further by myeloid cells into gangliosides of the a and b series, similar to endogenous GM3. In these cells, GM1 was the major ganglioside and it was segregated at the interface by stroma and myeloid cells, partially co-localizing with the GM-CSF-receptor α chain. We conclude that myelosupportive stroma cells produce and secrete the required growth factors, the cofactors such as heparan sulphate proteoglycans, and also supply gangliosides that are transferred from stroma to target cells, generating on the latter ones specific membrane domains with molecular complexes that include growth factor receptors.

Cells from 10 cases of childhood acute T-lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) were cultured in the presence of recombinant human interleukins (rhIL) or colony-stimulating factors (CSF) to analyze their growth factor requirements and differentiative potential. Although cells from most leukemic samples displayed a short-term proliferative response to several hematopoietic growth factors, only the ones featuring chromosomal translocations could be established as permanent cell lines. Two cell lines could be initiated only in the presence of IL-3 (TALL-103 and TALL-106), one in granulocyte-macrophage CSF (GM-CSF) (TALL-101), and one in IL-2 (TALL-104); only one cell line (TALL-105) was originated in the absence of growth factors. The TALL-101 and TALL- 103 cell lines, derived from very immature T-ALL cases, underwent growth factor-dependent phenotypic conversion (lymphoid to myeloid). However, the T-cell receptor rearrangement and karyotype of the original leukemic clones were retained. In contrast, the TALL-104, - 105, and -106 cell lines which originated from more mature T-ALL cases, maintained a T-lymphoblastic phenotype regardless of the growth factors in which they were expanded. These data demonstrate in vitro the aggressive nature of T-ALL cases bearing chromosomal abnormalities, and indicate that the lineage commitment of the malignant clone depends on its stage of maturation in T-cell ontogeny.

Raf-1 is a 74-kD serine/threonine kinase located in the cell cytoplasm that is activated by phosphorylation in cells stimulated with a variety of mitogens and growth factors, including hematopoietic growth factors. Using c-raf antisense oligonucleotides to block Raf-1 expression, we have established that Raf-1 is required for hematopoietic growth factor-induced proliferation of murine cell lines stimulated by growth factors whose receptors are members of several different structural classes: (a) the hematopoietin receptor family, including interleukin (IL)-2, IL-3, IL-4, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), and erythropoietin; (b) the tyrosine kinase receptor class, including Steel factor and CSF-1; and (c) IL-6, leukemia inhibitory factor, and oncostatin M, whose receptors include the gp130 receptor subunit. Although results of previous experiments had suggested that IL-4 does not phosphorylate or activate the Raf-1 kinase, c-raf antisense oligonucleotides inhibited IL-4-induced proliferation of both myeloid and T cell lines, and IL-4 activated Raf-1 kinase activity in an IL-4-dependent myeloid cell line. In colony assays, c-raf antisense oligonucleotides completely inhibited colony formation of unseparated normal murine bone marrow cells stimulated with either IL-3 or CSF-1 and partially inhibited cells stimulated with GM-CSF. In addition, c-raf antisense oligonucleotides completely inhibited both IL-3- and GM-CSF-induced colony formation of CD34+ purified human progenitors stimulated with these same growth factors. Thus, Raf-1 is required for growth factor-induced proliferation of leukemic murine progenitor cell lines and normal murine and human bone marrow-derived progenitor cells regardless of the growth factor used to stimulate cell growth.

Recently, a variety of growth factor-dependent subclones of the murine interleukin-3 (IL-3)-dependent cell line 32D have been isolated. These subclones include those dependent for growth on erythropoietin (Epo) (32D Epo), granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) (32D GM), or granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) (32D G). 32D Epo1.1 is a revertant of 32D Epo and is capable of growing in IL-3. These cell lines express the differentiation program appropriate to the specific growth factor and depend on the growth factors not only for proliferation but also for survival. To determine how the signal for proliferation is triggered by various growth factors, we examined the DNA histograms and the expression of cell cycle-specific genes in the different cell lines. The cell cycle-specific genes analyzed were myc (early G1), myb (late G1), and the structural genes for the calcium- binding protein 2A9 (middle G1) and histone H3 (G1-S boundary). The DNA histogram analysis of cells in the logarithmic phase of growth showed that approximately 40% of 32D, 32D GM, 32D G, and 32D Epo1.1 (growing in IL-3) were cells with a 2N DNA content (and therefore in G0/G1), and another 40% have a DNA content intermediate between 2N and 4N (in S phase). In contrast, 32D Epo and 32D Epo1.1 (growing in Epo) had fewer cells in the G0/G1 phase of the cell cycle compared with the number of cells that were in the S phase (19% to 31% v 69% to 78%, respectively). Because all the cell lines have comparable doubling times (15 to 18 hours), the cell distribution among the phases of the cell cycle is proportional to the length of the phase. Therefore, cells growing in IL- 3 (32D and 32D Epo1.1), GM-CSF (32D GM), or G-CSF (32D G) progress along the cycle in a manner typical of previously reported nontransformed cell lines. In contrast, cells growing in Epo (32D Epo or 32D Epo1.1) spend relatively less time in G0/G1 and correspondingly more time in S. These data were confirmed by the analysis of the tritiated thymidine (3H-TdR) suicide rate and of the expression of cell cycle-specific genes. The 32D and 32D Epo1.1 cells growing in IL-3 had a suicide rate of congruent to 50%, whereas the suicide rate of 32D Epo and 32D Epo1.1 growing in Epo was higher than 75%.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract Recombinant human granulocyte-macrophage (GM) colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), G-CSF, and interleukin-3 (IL-3) labeled with 125I were used to study the characteristics and distribution of receptors for these factors on in vitro cell lines and on cells from patients with acute nonlymphocytic leukemia (ANL) and acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL). Receptors for GM-CSF and G-CSF were restricted to a subset of myelomonocytic cell lines whereas IL-3 receptors were also found on pre- B- or early B-cell lines. Receptors for all three CSFs were broadly distributed on ANL cells, with considerable variability in levels of expression. Measurement of the colony-forming ability of ANL cells in response to the CSFs showed that there was no direct correlation between the ability of the cells to respond to a growth factor and the absolute number of receptors expressed for that growth factor. Binding of radiolabeled IL-3 and GM-CSF to ANL cells produced complex biphasic curves. Further analysis showed that both IL-3 and GM-CSF were able to partially compete for specific binding of the heterologous radiolabeled ligand to cells from several ANL patients, suggesting that heterogeneity may exist in human CSF receptors. These results provide new insights into the complex role that CSFs may play in ANL.

Tgfβ Superfamily

Many growth factors including members of the transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ) superfamily and epidermal growth factor (Egf)-like ligands signal via interactions with heparan sulphate proteoglycans (HSPGs). Cell surface HSPGs can act by sequestering ligands at their site of action, by presenting a ligand to its signalling receptor, or by preventing ligand-receptor interaction. The oocyte secreted factors (OSF) growth differentiation factor 9 and bone morphogenetic protein 15 are members of the TGFβ superfamily that act selectively on cumulus cells. Conversely Egf-like ligands are secreted by mural granulosa cells and transmit LH-induced signals to cumulus cells. We investigated the possibility that HSPGs contribute to the spatially restricted responses these signals exert on cumulus cells. Syndecan-1 and Glypican-1 are cell surface HSPGs that are involved in numerous biological processes, including growth factor regulation, cell proliferation and differentiation. Microarray analysis showed Syndecan-1 and Glypican-1 mRNA expression induced 6-fold (P=10-9) and 3-fold (P=10-7) respectively in Egf+FSH stimulated cumulus oocyte complexes (COCs). Furthermore, Syndecan-1 and Glypican-1 mRNA were induced 27- and 16-fold respectively in COCs after hCG treatment of mice. Syndecan-1 and Glypican-1 protein was localised specifically to the COC through immunohistochemical analysis. In Vitro Maturation (IVM) of oocytes is a valuable alternative to gonadotropin mediated superovulation, but IVM COCs are less competent than those matured in vivo. Several components of the COC have been shown to be altered in IVM, including the chondroitin sulphate proteoglycan Versican. COCs from mice that underwent IVM in the presence of Egf+FSH and cilostamide for 16 hours had >16 fold reduced mRNA for Syndecan-1 when compared with In Vivo matured COCs. The lack of Syndecan-1 in IVM COCs could reduce signalling capacity of growth factors including OSFs. This may contribute to the reduced capacity of IVM oocytes to fertilise and produce a healthy embryo, and ultimately, a healthy offspring.
