在小鼠粒单系祖细胞(CFU-GM)集落培养体系中加入LAK细胞能显著增强CFU-GM增殖,LAK∶BMC为8时,CFU-GM数比对照增加194.4%。LAK细胞条件液也有类似co-CSF的活性,单独LAK细胞条件液不能刺激CFU-GM增殖。LAK细胞和BMC共孵育4小时后再进行CFU-GM培养,低浓度LAK细胞仍能增强CFU-GM增殖,而高浓度LAK细胞则显著抑制CFU-GM增殖,LAK∶BMC为8时,CFU-GM仅为对照的27.6%。作者认为小鼠LAK细胞能通过分泌某些co-CSF增强CSF的活力,而LAK细胞对CFU-GM又有接触杀伤的活性。 相似文献

本实验以Dexter培养体系作小鼠胎肝和骨髓造血基质细胞贴壁培养。在所获的基质细胞贴壁层上作红系造血祖细胞集落培养,观察两种来源造血基质细胞对红系集落生长的影响。实验结果表明,胎肝造血基质细胞贴壁层能明显促进早期红系造血祖细胞(BFU-E)形成集落,却不明显影响晚期红系造血祖细胞(CFU-E)的生长。成年小鼠骨髓造血基质细胞贴壁层对BFU-E和CFU-E均有刺激生长的作用;但对前者生长的刺激性影响较胎肝造血基质细胞贴壁层为弱。造血基质细胞贴壁层对红系集落生长的促进作用主要是通过体液因子实现的,细胞间短距离调节的影响亦不能除外。 相似文献

B淋巴细胞在多向造血祖细胞生长中的地位 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
小鼠骨髓细胞在体外培养中,加入用流式自由电泳法分离所得的高纯度正常B淋巴细胞,可使多向祖细胞(CFU-mix)集落增加至5倍;加入小鼠B淋巴瘤细胞株的条件培基(M_(12.4.1)-CM)时,CFU-mix数也可增加至4倍。单集落形态学分析结果表明M_(12.4.1)-CM可加强CFU-GEMm及p-BFU-E等早期造血祖细胞的增殖与分化。小鼠高纯度B细胞样品在体外培养中加入1000 rad照射的骨髓细胞可出现CFU-mix集落,如果再加入适量的小鼠肺条件培基,则CFU-mix数量比对照大15倍,其集落性质为CFU-GEMm,GMm及p-BFU-E。在此培养中加不同稀释度抗小鼠IgM血清,结果CFU-mix的产率与抗IgM血清的浓度成直线反比关系,当加入1:10抗小鼠IgM血清时,CFU-mix为0。作者假设在一定培养条件下,IgM阳性的部分B细胞可返祖转化为CFU-mix。 相似文献

实验研究表明,小鼠骨髓细胞在体内扩散盒血浆凝块中培养2天后所生成的红系细胞团(E-CFU-D),既不是直接起源于BFU-E或ERC,也不是由骨髓幼稚细胞(原红细胞、早幼红细胞、中幼红细胞)增殖的结果,它是一类在细胞分化中介于ERC和原红细胞之间的造血祖细胞。体内E_p浓度降低时,ERC的分化受阻,但是,E_p对E-CFU-D分化的影响却介于ERC与原红细胞之间。从体内、外的培养结果可见,当E_p浓度增高时,可以增强CFU-E或E-CFU-D的增殖和分化。 相似文献

通过同种基因型小鼠构建造血干细胞移植模型,将预处理的全骨髓单个核细胞或c-Kit+造血干细胞移植至致死剂量照射的受体小鼠体内,动态监测移植2~16周后受体小鼠体内供体来源细胞造血重建以及嵌合情况,以期揭示不同群体的供体细胞以及预处理等因素对小鼠造血干细胞移植后造血重建的影响。实验结果显示,移植后早期(2周)全骨髓单个核细胞组髓系比例要高于c-Kit+细胞移植组,但全骨髓移植组受体小鼠呈现出较大的移植后不良反应,出现脱毛、食欲不振以及体重减轻的症状。c-Kit+细胞移植组在淋系重建上要早于全骨髓移植组,供体细胞的嵌合植入也早于全骨髓移植组,但两组实验组最终均能完成造血重建过程。实验结果表明c-Kit+细胞移植组在移植后能够较快地实现供体细胞植入,进而开始造血重建,且c-Kit+细胞移植组的不良反应要低于全骨髓移植组。结果说明在整体造血重建效果上c-Kit+细胞移植组要优于全骨髓移植组。 相似文献

Murine lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cells were generated from spleen cells of C57/BL6 mice by culture of spleen cells in vitro for 72 hours in medium containing 500 units/ml recombinant human interleukin 2 (IL-2), and effects of these LAK cells on proliferation of syngenic myeloid progenitor cells (CFU-GM) were observed. After 3 days culture, LAK cells were assayed for their cytotoxicity in a 4 hours 51Cr-release test. Either natural killer (NK) cell sensitive YAC-1 lymphoma cells or NK cell resistant LP-3 and WEHI-164 fibrosarcoma cells were efficiently lysed by murine LAK cells. When LAK cells were added into culture system in a final concentration of 5 x 10(4)/ml, 2 x 10(5)/ml, 8 x 10(5)/ml, CFU-GM were increased by 55.2%, 165.5%, and 194.4% of control respectively. LAK-CM also showed augmentative effect on CFU-GM growth. When 10% (v/v) of LAK-CM were added into culture system, CFU-GM were increased by 51.4% of control, but LAK-CM alone could not stimulate CFU-GM growth. Again, effects of LAK-BMC interaction on CFU-GM formation were investigated. CFU-GM were inhibited to 27.6% of control when 1 x 10(5) BMC were mixed with 8 x 10(5) LAK cells and incubated for 4 hours prior to CFU-GM culture. These data suggest that (1) LAK cells may secrete co-CSF which showed synergistic effect with CSF on CFU-GM proliferation: (2) When LAK cells contact with BMC, they showed significant cytotoxicity to myeloid progenitor cells which mediated decrease of CFU-GM formation. 相似文献

Neither lytic NK cells nor IL-2-responsive NK precursors were produced in myeloid (Dexter) long-term bone marrow cultures (LTBMC). However, when myeloid LTBMC were switched to lymphoid (Whitlock-Witte) conditions and reseeded ("recharged") with fresh bone marrow cells (BMC), nonadherent cells with NK lytic activity and NK 1.1+ phenotype were produced within 1-2 weeks without the addition of exogenous IL-2 to the cultures. NK- and T cell-depleted BMC proliferated extensively in switched cultures and in 2 weeks generated cells that lysed the NK target YAC-1 but not the LAK target P815. The presence of NK precursors in the cultures was confirmed by reculturing nonadherent cells harvested from recharged LTBMC in fresh medium containing 50 U rIL-2/ml. High levels of NK lytic activity were generated. Sequential expression of NK 1.1 and IL-2 responsiveness followed by lytic activity was demonstrated by harvesting cells early after recharge, prior to the appearance of lytic cells. Elimination of NK 1.1+ cells depleted the ability to respond to IL-2 in secondary culture. Our studies demonstrate that myeloid-to-lymphoid switched LTBMC support the proliferation and differentiation of NK lineage cells from their NK 1.1-, nonlytic progenitors in the absence of an exogenous source of growth factors. 相似文献

In vitro antitumor effects of LAK cells and alpha-2b-Interferon (IFN) either alone or in combination were evaluated on NK resistant (K562) and NK sensitive (Namalwa, Raji) cell lines. Tumor cells were incubated with LAK cells for 4, 8 and 24 hours at a LAK: tumor cell ratio of 1:1, 10:1, 100:1, or with IFN for 48 and 96 h at the concentrations of 100, 1000, 10,000, 100,000 IU/ml. A clonogenic assay was utilised to enumerate residual cells after in vitro treatment. A positive correlation was found between tumor cell killing and effector: target ratio, IFN of 100:1 incubated for 4 h, and 100 IU/ml of IFN incubated for 48 h were further chosen. A synergistic effect was found when IFN was incubated before LAK cells or contemporarily, but not when IFN was incubated after LAK cells. These findings demonstrate that an additive or a synergistic effect in vitro can be obtained by adding the two agents in different sequences and suggest that a potential utility of LAK cells and IFN in vivo should be tested in clinical trials. 相似文献

The coculture of rat bone marrow cells with recombinant interleukin-2 induced the generation of cells mediating natural killer (NK) activity and subsequent lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) activity depending upon the dose of IL-2 and time of culture. NK activity was detected as early as 4 to 5 days after the addition of IL-2 and could be evoked with as little as 5 to 50 U/ml. The induced NK cells had large granular lymphocyte (LGL) morphology and expressed 0X8 and asialo GM1 surface markers but did not express 0X19 or W3/25 markers. LAK activity was detected only after 5 days of culture, and required above 100 U/ml IL-2. Cells mediating LAK activity also expressed 0X8 and asialo GM1 but not 0X19. The generation of detectable NK and subsequent LAK activity was due to induction of early progenitor cells and not contaminating mature LGL/NK cells within the bone marrow population since of removal of such mature NK cells with L-leucine methyl ester (L-LME) did not affect the subsequent generation of either activity. Moreover, the removal of actively dividing cells as well as mature NK cells from the bone marrow by treatment with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) in vivo enriched the remaining bone marrow population for both NK and LAK progenitor cells. The phenotype of the L-LME- and 5-FU-resistant NK and LAK progenitor cells within populations of bone marrow was determined by antibody plus complement depletion analysis. Although treatment of normal bone marrow with anti-asialo GM1 + C reduced the induction of NK and LAK activity in 5-day cultures, treatment of 5-FU marrow with anti-asialo GM1 + C did not affect either activity. Treatment with a pan-T cell antibody + C did not affect the development of NK or LAK activity under any conditions. Thus, the 5-FU-resistant NK/LAK progenitors were asialo GM1 negative but became asialo GM1+ after induction by IL-2. Finally, evidence that bone marrow-derived LAK cells were generated directly from the IL-2-induced NK cells was obtained by treating the IL-2-induced LGL/NK cells with L-LME.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

The lineage of lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cells is poorly understood. To examine the relationship between LAK and natural killer (NK) cells we utilized two congenitally immunodeficient mice, namely severe combined immunodeficient (scid) and athymic (nude) mice that lack T cells but have normal NK cells. LAK activity was evaluated by the ability to lyze NK-resistant P815 cells. When cultured with human recombinant interleukin 2, splenocytes of scid and nude mice could generate LAK activity at levels comparable to or more than those of normal C.B-17 mice. LAK effector cells in these immunodeficient mice as well as normal mice had the phenotype resembling that of NK cells with asialo-GM1 (aGM1) expression. In vivo treatment with anti-aGM1 antiserum completely abolished the induction of LAK activity from splenocytes of normal mice. In contrast, LAK activity in splenocytes of scid and nude mice was still demonstrable even after this treatment, indicating that most LAK precursors in both mice were cells without aGM1 antigen. The aGM1- progenitors for LAK activity, probably in common with NK progenitors, appeared to be more expanded in scid and nude mice than in normal mice. The use of such congenitally immunodeficient mice should be helpful in studying the differentiation step of LAK as well as NK cells from their precursors. 相似文献

Abstract The proliferation kinetics and population renewal of recombinant interleukin-2 (rIL-2)-induced murine lymphokine activated killers (LAK) arising from splenic precursors was studied. Extensive proliferation has been shown to accompany the de novo generation of LAK cytotoxicity. In this report, a thymidine 'hot pulse' suicide technique was employed to examine the sensitivity of LAK progenitors during various time periods following culture initiation. Hot pulse during the first 24 hr of culture resulted in a 30–35% reduction in lytic activity when assayed on day 5. Pulse periods between days 1 and 4 resulted in almost complete inhibition (90–95%) of lytic function when assayed on day 5. Proliferation of LAK progenitors was documented by limiting dilution analysis comparison of splenic precursors and functionally mature LAK cultures. These studies showed a 75- to 80-fold enrichment of LAK progenitors after 3 days culture in rIL-2. By flow cytometric cell cycle analysis, we demonstrated that the number of cells in the S/G2 /M phase increased with the length of rIL-2 culture and represented approximately 40% of the cells by day 4. Finally, we used the rate of decay of lytic activity following irradiation as a factor to define the mean life span of a cytotoxic effector in the absence of cellular input. An exponential decrease to approximately 50% of controls was observed within 8–9 hr after irradiation. Taken together, these results suggest that the LAK system is highly dynamic and requires continuous cellular proliferation for its maintenance. 相似文献

Interleukin 2 induces human acute lymphocytic leukemia cells to manifest lymphokine-activated-killer (LAK) cytotoxicity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Lymphokine-activated killer cells (LAK) were originally distinguished from natural killers (NK) and cytotoxic T lymphocytes. Recently, however, IL 2-activated NK cells were suggested as the major source of LAK reactivity in human peripheral blood (PBL). Because certain T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) cells are phenotypically similar to LAK precursors, we have asked whether these leukemic cells can be induced toward LAK-cytotoxicity and express NK reactivity before stimulation. Five out of seven T-ALL preparations were induced by IL 2 to kill target cells. The cytotoxicity of the leukemic-LAK cells resembled that of normal LAK effectors as they lysed efficiently the NK-resistant target Daudi, as well as fresh human sarcoma, carcinoma, and renal cancer cells but not normal PBL. The ALL-LAK precursors phenotype was T3-, T4-, T8-, and T11+, similar to most normal LAK precursors. In contrast to normal PBL that generated LAK effectors when their proliferation was inhibited, the irradiated, nonproliferating T-ALL leukemic cells did not respond to IL 2. Therefore, the T-ALL LAK cytotoxicity was attributed to the leukemic cells rather than to residual normal lymphocytes. The IL 2-responding T-ALL cells did not express autonomous NK type cytotoxicity, suggesting that they reflect LAK precursors of non-NK origin. The homogeneous leukemic preparations with inducible LAK cytotoxicity described herein provide a model system for studying normal LAK cells. 相似文献

We have investigated the role of interleukin-2 (IL2) as a differentiation factor for human marrow-derived NK cell progenitors and have assessed the effects of interleukin-1 (IL1) on this activity. The effects of these cytokines on early NK cell precursors was determined by testing marrow which had been depleted of mature cells and of CD2+ cells by treatment with soybean agglutinin and sheep erythrocytes (SBA-E-BM). The cytolytic activities of the SBA-E-BM were tested in 51Cr release assays following 7-8 days of liquid culture. K562 targets were used to assess NK activity and NK-resistant Daudi targets were used to measure lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cell activity. Neither NK nor LAK activity were measurable in marrow incubated in medium without cytokines, or in medium containing IL1 alone. In contrast, culture in medium containing IL2 resulted in a dose-dependent development of lytic activity. NK and LAK activities could be differentiated by the percentage of cultures in which the activity developed, the dose of IL2 required, the time kinetics of induction, and the effect of depletion of residual cells with NK phenotype prior to culture. The most lytically active effectors of both activities, however, were CD56+. Immunofluorescence analyses before and after culture with IL2 revealed that Leu19+ (CD56) cells increased from less than 2% to as much as 17% of the total marrow cells and showed the appearance of a population of CD56+CD16- cells. The addition of IL1 to the marrow cultures increased NK activity when suboptimal amounts of IL2 were used (less than or equal to 100 U/ml), but did not increase LAK activity at any concentration of IL2. A higher number of NK cells, as well as MY7+(CD13+) myeloid cells were recovered from cultures containing IL1 plus IL2, indicating that NK cells as well as myeloid cells had a growth advantage in the presence of IL1. IL2 receptor (CD25) expression was low in all cultures but was consistently higher in cultures containing IL1 and IL2, however, CD25 was not coexpressed on NK cells. These studies indicate that early NK cell precursors can grow and differentiate in response to IL2 and that NK and LAK lytic activities may be acquired at different developmental stages. IL1 may serve to promote the responsiveness of NK cell progenitors to low concentration of IL2 by a mechanism which may not require expression of CD25. 相似文献

The developmental relationships among large agranular lymphocytes (LAL) large granular lymphocytes (LGL) and the activation of these cells into lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cells by rIL-2 was investigated. Highly enriched populations of LAL were isolated from Fischer 344 spleen cells by a combination of nylon-wool filtration (to remove B cells and macrophages), treatment with a pan T cell antibody plus complement (to remove T cells) and incubation in L-leucine methyl ester (to remove LGL). The resultant cells were highly enriched in morphologically identifiable LAL which expressed asialo GM1 and partially expressed the OX8 surface marker. The enriched LAL did not contain detectable NK cytotoxic activity, did not express pan T cell (OX19), Ia, Ig, or laminin surface markers and contained less than 0.2% LGL. Incubation of LAL in a low dose of rIL-2 (100 U/ml) induced the generation of LGL having NK activity within 24 h of culture. Longer culture periods (48 h) resulted in a continued increase in the percentage of LGL and higher levels of NK activity. However, with this low dose of rIL-2, little or no LAK activity (i.e., reactivity against NK-resistant target cells) was generated. With a high dose of rIL-2 (500 U/ml), LAL responded by first generating LGL with NK activity (within 24 h), with subsequent generation of LAK activity by 48 h. Evidence that the development of granular lymphocytes from LAL was responsible first for NK activity and then LAK activity was demonstrated by depletion of the generated granular NK or LAK effector cells by second treatments with L-leucine methyl ester. Concomitant with the induction of LGL with NK or LAK activity, rIL-2 also caused LGL to proliferate and expand four- to five-fold in 48 h. This occurred in the presence of high or low dose rIL-2. These results indicate that LAL are the precursors of LGL/NK cells, that LAL, LGL/NK cells and LAK cells appear to represent sequential developmental or activation stages and that LAL may comprise major source of LAK progenitors in lymphoid populations having few LGL or mature active NK cells. 相似文献
