Galectin-3 (gal-3) is a β-galactoside binding protein present in multivalent complexes with an extracellular matrix and with cell surface glycoconjugates. In this context, it can deliver a variety of intracellular signals to modulate cell activation, differentiation and survival. In the hematopoietic system, it was demonstrated that gal-3 is expressed in myeloid cells and surrounding stromal cells. Furthermore, exogenous and surface gal-3 drive the proliferation of myeloblasts in a granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF)-dependent manner. Here, we investigated whether gal-3 regulates the formation of myeloid bone marrow compartments by studying galectin-3(-/-) mice (gal-3(-/-)) in the C57BL/6 background. The bone marrow histology of gal-3(-/-) mice was significantly modified and the myeloid compartments drastically disturbed, in comparison with wild-type (WT) animals. In the absence of gal-3, we found reduced cell density and diaphyseal disorders containing increased trabecular projections into the marrow cavity. Moreover, myeloid cells presented limited capacity to differentiate into mature myeloid cell populations in gal-3(-/-) mice and the number of hematopoietic multipotent progenitors was increased relative to WT animals. In addition, bone marrow stromal cells of these mice had reduced levels of GM-CSF gene expression. Taken together, our data suggest that gal-3 interferes with hematopoiesis, controlling both precursors and stromal cells and favors terminal differentiation of myeloid progenitors rather than proliferation. 相似文献

Multiple members of the A, B, and C clusters of Hox genes are expressed in hematopoietic cells. Several of these Hox genes have been found to display distinctive expression patterns, with genes located at the 3' side of the clusters being expressed at their highest levels in the most primitive subpopulation of human CD34+ bone marrow cells and genes located at the 5' end having a broader range of expression, with downregulation at later stages of hematopoietic differentiation. To explore if these patterns reflect different functional activities, we have retrovirally engineered the overexpression of a 5'-located gene, HOXA10, in murine bone marrow cells and demonstrate effects strikingly different from those induced by overexpression of a 3'-located gene, HOXB4. In contrast to HOXB4, which causes selective expansion of primitive hematopoietic cells without altering their differentiation, overexpression of HOXA10 profoundly perturbed myeloid and B-lymphoid differentiation. The bone marrow of mice reconstituted with HOXA10-transduced bone marrow cells contained in high frequency a unique progenitor cell with megakaryocytic colony-forming ability and was virtually devoid of unilineage macrophage and pre-B-lymphoid progenitor cells derived from the transduced cells. Moreover, and again in contrast to HOXB4, a significant proportion of HOXA10 mice developed a transplantable acute myeloid leukemia with a latency of 19 to 50 weeks. These results thus add to recognition of Hox genes as important regulators of hematopoiesis and provide important new evidence of Hox gene-specific functions that may correlate with their normal expression pattern. 相似文献

In the present work, we tested in SCID and Balb/c mice the activity of T hybridoma transfected with T cell receptor (TCR) alpha/beta chain genes. A T cell hybridoma denoted D011107 was used as recipient for transfection of cytotoxic KB5C20 TCR alpha/beta heterodimer genes by protoplast fusion or electroporation. After transfection, the parental D011107 T cell line reexpressed CD5 and CD4 surface molecules. In vitro, we noted strong proliferation and unusual cytotoxic reactivities against H-2k target cells although the transfected cell line does not express the CD8 molecule. The fate of parental and transfected cells was examined in severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) and Balb/c mice at Day 16 after intravenous injection. Cells from bone marrow, thymus, and spleen tissues were analyzed by immunofluorescence. The transfected T cell hybridoma was CD3+ Desire 1+ CD4+ Thy1.2. The SCID mice grafted with the transfected T cell hybridoma presented a high percentage of CD3+ (15%), CD4+ (27%), Thy1.2+ (27.52%), and Desire 1+ (8.74%) cells in the spleen. The percentages of CD3+ (6.2%) and Thy1.2+ (5.06%) cells in the spleen from SCID mice grafted with parental T cell D011107 and from untreated SCID were similar and lower (CD3+, 3.52%; Thy1.2+, 4.34%). It seems that transfected T cells hybridoma grafted in the SCID mice induce significant expression of CD4+ Thy1.2+ Desire 1- cells (17%) in the spleen. These results indicate that transfected T cells graft may allow T cell differentiation. In Balb/c mice, the percentage of different T cell subsets in bone marrow, thymus, or spleen cells in mice injected with transfected T cells was similar to that in untreated mice. We did not observe any cytotoxic or significant allogeneic proliferation in vitro. 相似文献

Synergism among interleukin 1, interleukin 3, and interleukin 5 in the production of eosinophils from primitive hemopoietic stem cells 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The in vitro production of eosinophils from committed progenitor cells is influenced by interleukin (IL)-5 (eosinophil differentiation factor) and to a lesser extent by IL-3 and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). In primary suspension cultures of marrow cells taken from eosinophilic mice, IL-3 induced a modest stimulation of eosinophil production compared to IL-5. In contrast, IL-3 was sevenfold more effective than IL-5 in generating eosinophil progenitors (eosinophil colony-forming units (CFU-eo] from more primitive precursors present in the marrow of normal mice. Pre-incubation of marrow cells in suspension culture with IL-3, but not IL-5, increased the recovery of myeloid precursors responsive to G-CSF, GM-CSF, CSF-1, or IL-3 two- to fourfold while eosinophil progenitor cells responsive to IL-5 were increased by more than 70-fold. Similarly, pre-incubation of bone marrow cells under clonal conditions with IL-3, but not IL-5, resulted in a more than 50 fold increase in CFU-eo responsive to IL-5 over input values. Bone marrow from mice pre-treated with 5-fluorouracil is greatly depleted of progenitor cells directly responsive to IL-3 or IL-5. IL-1 which synergistically interacts with various CSF species to confer a clonogenic response by primitive stem cells present in 5-fluorouracil-treated marrow also failed to stimulate eosinophil production. A marked synergism was observed when IL-1 and IL-3 were combined in the suspension pre-culture phase with a more than sixfold recovery of CFU-eo than induced by either factor alone. Furthermore, pre-culture of 5-fluorouracil-treated marrow cells with a combination of IL-1 and IL-3 resulted in a more than 260-fold increase of CFU-eo over input numbers. These data suggest that the concatenate action of IL-1, IL-3, and IL-5 is an absolute requirement for the in vitro generation of eosinophils from primitive hemopoietic stem cells. 相似文献

Background
Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are innate immune cells capable of suppressing T-cell responses. We previously reported the presence of MDSCs with a granulocytic phenotype in the synovial fluid (SF) of mice with proteoglycan (PG)-induced arthritis (PGIA), a T cell-dependent autoimmune model of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, the limited amount of SF-MDSCs precluded investigations into their therapeutic potential. The goals of this study were to develop an in vitro method for generating MDSCs similar to those found in SF and to reveal the therapeutic effect of such cells in PGIA.Methods
Murine bone marrow (BM) cells were cultured for 3 days in the presence of granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF). The phenotype of cultured cells was analyzed using flow cytometry, microscopy, and biochemical methods. The suppressor activity of BM-MDSCs was tested upon co-culture with activated T cells. To investigate the therapeutic potential of BM-MDSCs, the cells were injected into SCID mice at the early stage of adoptively transferred PGIA, and their effects on the clinical course of arthritis and PG-specific immune responses were determined.Results
BM cells cultured in the presence of GM-CSF, IL-6, and G-CSF became enriched in MDSC-like cells that showed greater phenotypic heterogeneity than MDSCs present in SF. BM-MDSCs profoundly inhibited both antigen-specific and polyclonal T-cell proliferation primarily via production of nitric oxide. Injection of BM-MDSCs into mice with PGIA ameliorated arthritis and reduced PG-specific T-cell responses and serum antibody levels.Conclusions
Our in vitro enrichment strategy provides a SF-like, but controlled microenvironment for converting BM myeloid precursors into MDSCs that potently suppress both T-cell responses and the progression of arthritis in a mouse model of RA. Our results also suggest that enrichment of BM in MDSCs could improve the therapeutic efficacy of BM transplantation in RA. 相似文献8.

Expression of a retrovirally encoded allogeneic MHC class I gene in bone marrow-derived cells can be used to induce tolerance to the product of the retrovirally transduced gene. In this work we examined whether expression of a retrovirally transduced allogeneic MHC class I gene in bone marrow-derived cells from recombinase-activating gene-1 (RAG-1)-deficient mice was sufficient to induce tolerance when transplanted into conditioned hosts together with bone marrow from MHC-matched wild-type mice. Reconstitution of mice with either MHC-matched RAG-1-deficient or wild-type bone marrow transduced with the allogeneic MHC class I gene H-2K(b) led to long-term expression of K(b) on the surface of bone marrow-derived hematopoietic lineages. T cells from mice reconstituted with H-2K(b)-transduced wild-type bone marrow were tolerant to K(b). In contrast, expression of K(b) in the periphery of mice reconstituted with a mixture of retrovirally transduced RAG-1-deficient bone marrow and mock-transduced wild-type bone marrow fell below detectable levels by 4 wk after transplantation. T cells that developed in these mice appeared to be hyporesponsive to K(b), demonstrating that expression of K(b) on bone marrow-derived APCs was not sufficient to induce tolerance. Our data suggest that induction of tolerance in molecular chimeras requires expression of the retrovirally transduced allogeneic MHC Ag on the surface of mature lymphocytes that populate the host thymus. 相似文献

Lethally irradiated C3Hf mice reconstituted with a relatively low dose (2 × 106) of B6C3F1 bone marrow cells (B6C3F1 → C3Hf chimeras) frequently manifest immunohematologic deficiencies during the first month following injection of bone marrow cells. They show slow recovery of antibody-forming potential to sheep red blood cells (SRBC) as compared to that observed in syngeneic (C3Hf → C3Hf or B6C3F1 → B6C3F1) chimeras. They also show a deficiency of B-cell activity as assessed by antibody response to SRBC following further reconstitution with B6C3F1-derived thymus cells 1 week after injection of bone marrow cells. A significant fraction of B6C3F1 → C3Hf chimeras was shown to manifest a sudden loss of cellularity of spleens during the second week following injection of bone marrow cells even though cellularity was restored to the normal level within 1 week. The splenic mononuclear cells recovered from such chimeras almost invariably showed strong cytotoxicity against target cells expressing donor-type specific H-2 antigens (H-2b) when assessed by 51Cr-release assay in vitro. The effector cells responsible for the observed anti-donor specific cytotoxicity were shown to be residual host-derived T cells. These results indicate strongly that residual host T cells could develop anti-donor specific cytotoxicity even after exposure to a supralethal dose (1050 R) of radiation and that the immunohematologic disturbances observed in short-term F1 to parent bone marrow chimeras (B6C3F1 → C3Hf) were due to host-versus-graft reaction (HVGR) initiated by residual host T cells. The implication of these findings on the radiobiological nature of the residual T cells and the persistence of potentially anti-donor reactive T-cell clones in long-surviving allogeneic bone marrow chimeras was discussed. 相似文献

Granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) specifically induces the growth of myeloid progenitors and their maturation into neutrophils and macrophages. We have identified a series of previously uncharacterized hematopoietic-specific mRNAs that are expressed in myelopoietic mouse bone marrow cultures stimulated by GM-CSF. One of these messages, C10, encodes a new member of the family of cytokine-like genes related to macrophage inflammatory protein-1 (MIP-1). Members of this family are all induced by one or more stimuli related to inflammation, wound repair, or immune response. In contrast, C10 mRNA showed little or no accumulation in response to such activating agents and was greatly reduced on activation of a T-cell line. On the other hand, C10 mRNA, unlike MIP-1, was acutely stimulated during the first day of bone marrow culture in GM-CSF, and it was also strongly elevated during the induction of neutrophilic differentiation of 32D cl3 cells by granulocyte colony-stimulating factor. The implications of this unusual expression pattern are discussed. 相似文献

Core 2 beta-1,6-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase, C2GnT, is a key enzyme in O-linked oligosaccharide (O-glycan) biosynthesis and the resultant core 2 branch serves as a backbone for additional glycosylation to form oligosaccharide ligands such as sialyl Le(x). Since the expression of C2GnT is highly regulated during T-cell development and increases in pathological conditions such as the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome, we have generated transgenic mice overexpressing C2GnT in the T-cell lineage. Surprisingly, T lymphocytes in the transgenic mice develop normally, but they exhibit a reduced immune response when assayed by delayed-type hypersensitivity, proliferation upon stimulation and cytokine production. Moreover, T lymphocytes from the transgenic mice adhere much less efficiently to ICAM-1 and fibronectin than do T lymphocytes from non-transgenic mice. These results indicate that overexpression of the core 2 branched O-glycans in T lymphocytes results in reduced immune responses due to impaired cell-cell interaction. Such an impaired immune response may be one of the causes for immunodeficiency in the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome. 相似文献

Increased generation of dendritic cells from myeloid progenitors in autoimmune-prone nonobese diabetic mice 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Aberrant dendritic cell (DC) development and function may contribute to autoimmune disease susceptibility. To address this hypothesis at the level of myeloid lineage-derived DC we compared the development of DC from bone marrow progenitors in vitro and DC populations in vivo in autoimmune diabetes-prone nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice, recombinant congenic nonobese diabetes-resistant (NOR) mice, and unrelated BALB/c and C57BL/6 (BL/6) mice. In GM-CSF/IL-4-supplemented bone marrow cultures, DC developed in significantly greater numbers from NOD than from NOR, BALB/c, and BL/6 mice. Likewise, DC developed in greater numbers from sorted (lineage(-)IL-7Ralpha(-)SCA-1(-)c-kit(+)) NOD myeloid progenitors in either GM-CSF/IL-4 or GM-CSF/stem cell factor (SCF)/TNF-alpha. [(3)H]TdR incorporation indicated that the increased generation of NOD DC was due to higher levels of myeloid progenitor proliferation. Generation of DC with the early-acting hematopoietic growth factor, flt3 ligand, revealed that while the increased DC-generative capacity of myeloid-committed progenitors was restricted to NOD cells, early lineage-uncommitted progenitors from both NOD and NOR had increased DC-generative capacity relative to BALB/c and BL/6. Consistent with these findings, NOD and NOR mice had increased numbers of DC in blood and thymus and NOD had an increased proportion of the putative myeloid DC (CD11c(+)CD11b(+)) subset within spleen. These findings demonstrate that diabetes-prone NOD mice exhibit a myeloid lineage-specific increase in DC generative capacity relative to diabetes-resistant recombinant congenic NOR mice. We propose that an imbalance favoring development of DC from myeloid-committed progenitors predisposes to autoimmune disease in NOD mice. 相似文献

A good correlation between the expression of mucin1 (MUC1) and T antigen was found in breast cancer tumors and breast cancer cell lines, especially after treatment with neuraminidase. The association between the appearance of T antigen and the overexpression of MUC1 was further confirmed by transfecting MDA-MB-231 cells and murine 4T1 mammary carcinoma cells with cDNA for MUC1 and using an RNAi approach to inhibit the expression of MUC1 gene in T47D cells. Furthermore, we discovered that in 4T1 cells which express the sialyl Le(X) antigen, overexpression of MUC1 caused not only appearance of T antigen, but also loss of the sialyl Le(X) structure. As the observed changes in O-glycan synthesis can be associated with changes in the expression of specific glycosyltransferases, core 1 β1,3-galactosyltransferase, core 2 β1,6-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase (C2GnT1) and β-galactoside α2,3-sialyltransferase (ST3Gal I), we studied their expression in parental, vector-transfected and MUC1-transfected MDA-MB-231 and 4T1 cells as well as T47D cells transduced with small hairpin RNA targeted MUC1 mRNA. It was found that the expression of C2GnT1 and ST3Gal I is highly decreased in MUC1-expressing MDA-MB-231 and 4T1 cells and increased in T47D cells with suppressed expression of MUC1. Therefore, we found that changes in the structure of O-linked oligosaccharides, resulting in the occurrence of T antigen, are at least partially associated with MUC1 overexpression which down-regulates the expression of C2GnT1 and ST3Gal I. We showed also that the overexpression of MUC1 in 4T1 cells changes their adhesive properties, as MUC1-expressing cells do not adhere to E-selectin, but bind galectin-3. 相似文献

Normal DBA/2 and autoimmune NZB mice were studied with regard to signals eliciting differentiation and division of bone marrow stem cells. Irradiated (NZB X DBA/2)F1 mice were repopulated with various combinations of T-depleted bone marrow from NZB and DBA/2 mice. In response to the repopulation signal of irradiation, recipients of autoimmune NZB marrow initially demonstrated expansion of LY-5+ lymphoid and hemopoietic cells, particularly of the B cell lineage. The greater the proportion of NZB marrow, the higher the percentage of lymphoid cells observed 2 wk post-repopulation. B cells (ThB-positive cells) were increased in disproportionate numbers in recipients of NZB marrow, even those that had received as little as 20% NZB bone marrow cells. However, by 2 mo, the initially observed increase in lymphoid cells in recipients of NZB marrow was no longer observed. Up to 6 mo post-repopulation, cytogenetic analysis revealed that irradiated recipients were repopulated in the same proportion of DBA/2: NZB as was in the injected marrow. Endogenous colony formation assays indicated that recipients of 100% NZB, 80% NZB, and 20% NZB marrow all had greater numbers of splenic endogenous colonies than did recipients of DBA/2 marrow alone. These studies indicated that autoimmune NZB marrow repopulated irradiated mice in the proportion in which it was injected, but there was a disproportionate early increase in cells of the B lineage as well as a disproportionate increase in splenic colony formation. 相似文献

Cryptosporidial infections in SCID mice reconstituted with human or murine lymphocytes. 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) mice were experimentally infected with Cryptosporidium parvum. Adoptive transfer of BALB/c thymocytes, spleen and bone marrow cells resulted in functional immunologic reconstitution followed by complete eradication of the cryptosporidial infection. Additional SCID mice were injected with human blood peripheral blood lymphocytes and were subsequently infected with C. parvum. The latter mice (SCID-hu-PBL) were at least partially reconstituted with human lymphoid tissues, as evidenced by flow cytometric identification of human cell populations in the SCID mouse spleens and the response of these cells to the T-cell mitogen phytohemagglutinin. The SCID-hu-PBL mice did not resolve the cryptosporidial infections, although a transient reduction in parasitemia was noted 4-6 wk post-reconstitution. 相似文献

The in vivo effects of interleukin 1. I. Bone marrow cells are induced to cycle after administration of interleukin 1 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

We have previously reported that interleukin 1 (IL-1) administration 20 hr before irradiation protects mice from lethal effects of radiation. The recovery of total nucleated bone marrow cells and of hematopoietic progenitor cells was enhanced in IL-1 treated, as compared to untreated, irradiated mice. This suggested that IL-1 administration may affect the cells in the bone marrow of normal mice. Intraperitoneal administration of recombinant IL-1 resulted in bone marrow cell enlargement and increased cycling of these enlarged cells. In addition, the capacity of bone marrow cells from IL-1 treated mice to proliferate in response to granulocyte macrophage-colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) in cell suspension cultures was enhanced. The above effects were not genetically restricted as C57BL/6, B6D2F1, C3H/HeN, and C3H/HeJ mice showed similar responses. A comparative study showed that 100 ng of IL-1 was much more effective in stimulating bone marrow cells by the above criteria than 5 micrograms GM-CSF. Since IL-1, unlike CSF, can not be demonstrated to have a direct in vitro stimulatory effect on bone marrow cells, the aforementioned in vivo effects of IL-1 are presumably mediated by other hematopoietic growth factors. We have previously shown that IL-1 induces the appearance of high titers of CSF in the serum. Consequently hematopoietic growth factors that are generated at local sites following IL-1 administration may mediate the observed cell cycling effect. 相似文献

In vivo studies concerning the function of human hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) are limited by relatively low levels of engraftment and the failure of the engrafted HSC preparations to differentiate into functional immune cells after systemic application. In the present paper we describe the effect of intrahepatically transplanted CD34+ cells from cord blood into the liver of newborn or adult NOD/SCID mice on organ engraftment and differentiation.Analyzing the short and long term time dependency of human cell recruitment into mouse organs after cell transplantation in the liver of newborn and adult NOD/SCID mice by RT-PCR and FACS analysis, a significantly high engraftment was found after transplantation into liver of newborn NOD/SCID mice compared to adult mice, with the highest level of 35% human cells in bone marrow and 4.9% human cells in spleen at day 70. These human cells showed CD19 B-cell, CD34 and CD38 hematopoietic and CD33 myeloid cell differentiation, but lacked any T-cell differentiation. HSC transplantation into liver of adult NOD/SCID mice resulted in minor recruitment of human cells from mouse liver to other mouse organs. The results indicate the usefulness of the intrahepatic application route into the liver of newborn NOD/SCID mice for the investigation of hematopoietic differentiation potential of CD34+ cord blood stem cell preparations. 相似文献

The ability of murine Steel factor to promote the in vitro production of granulocyte-macrophage progenitor cells (CFU-GM) was examined in short-term liquid cultures. Bone marrow from C57BL/6J or Sl/Sld mice was placed in culture for seven days with either Steel factor alone or in the presence of IL-3. CFU-GM responsive to GM-CSF, IL-3, and CSF-1 were measured in the input population and again after 3 or 7 days in culture. Steel factor alone increased the number of all CFU-GM types as early as 3 days after culture initiation, with further increases at day 7. This effect was potentiated by the addition of IL-3. Production of CFU-GM by C57BL/6J or Sl/Sld marrow was comparable except for enhanced production of CSF-1 responsive progenitors by Sl/Sld marrow. A recombinant Sld protein was also shown to be equivalent to the wild-type protein in its capacity to promote CFU-GM production from normal bone marrow. 相似文献
