The role of GM-CSF in B cell (patho)physiology is unclear. Although B cells can respond to GM-CSF, there is controversy concerning the extent to which various resting and activated B cell types can themselves produce this cytokine, and the possibility that it can function in an autocrine fashion has not previously been considered. The aim of the present study was to address these issues using hairy cells (HCs) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells, two intrinsically activated mature malignant B cell types (with activation being more uniform and more pronounced in HCs). Normal B cells were used for comparison. Using a number of techniques, we demonstrated the constitutive production of GM-CSF by all three cell types and showed that the cytokine was biologically active. GM-CSF mRNA and protein were increased after cell activation by PMA, and constitutive production of the cytokine was highest in HCs, suggesting that the level of GM-CSF production is influenced by cell activation. Because GM-CSF is known to be antiapoptotic for myeloid cells, we used blocking anti-GM-CSF Abs to examine the contribution of autocrinely produced cytokine to cell survival. The Abs produced marked reduction in the in vitro survival of HCs, chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells, and normal B cells by promoting apoptosis. Taken together, these findings suggest that, in combination with other known rescue factors, autocrinely produced GM-CSF may contribute to normal and malignant B cell survival in vivo. 相似文献

We investigated the interaction between GM-CSF and its receptor on human granulocytes and on several human tumor cell lines. Specific high-affinity binding for GM-CSF was characterized by Scatchard plot analysis. The specific radioactivity of the 125I-labeled derivative of rH. GM-CSF was determined by self-displacement analysis and calculated to be 30 microCi/micrograms. The maximum concentration of binding sites (B max) in granulocytes was 40 fmol/mg protein (2,200 molecules GM-CSF bound/cell) and the dissociation constant (KD) was 0.42 nM. No binding sites for GM-CSF were found in two lung cancer cell lines, SCLC-16HV and NCI-N417 or in the urinary bladder carcinoma cell line 5637, whereas the promyelocytic leukemia cell line HL60 was positive for GM-CSF binding. Time course experiments showed maximum binding of GM-CSF in granulocytes after an incubation period of 60 min and a decrease in binding after an incubation period of 2 h. In parallel, we found a maximum biological signal when granulocytes were preincubated for 90 min with GM-CSF, and a decrease after an incubation time of 120 min. Preincubation of the cells with rH. GM-CSF induced an enhancement of the production of activated oxygen species by the cells in response to PMA. 相似文献

The effects of granulocyte-macrophage (GM-CSF) or macrophage-CSF on in vitro proliferation of human alveolar macrophages (AM) were evaluated. AM of healthy volunteers incubated with recombinant human GM-CSF revealed incorporation of [3H]thymidine in vitro. The maximum incorporation was observed at 20 U/ml of GM-CSF on day 3. The proportion of proliferating cells incubated with 20 U/ml of GM-CSF from day 3 to day 4 was 8 to 11% of the total, whereas 3 to 5% of cells proliferated without GM-CSF. The number of cell nuclei increased 1.30- to 1.68-fold in the initial 7 days during incubation with 20 U/ml of GM-CSF, whereas there was a 1.07- to 1.13-fold increase without GM-CSF. Conditioned media obtained by the incubation with human lung tissue exhibited similar effects as recombinant human GM-CSF on macrophages. The effects were completely abrogated by antibody against human GM-CSF. Immunohistochemically, GM-CSF was detected in lung cells including AM, alveolar epithelium, alveolar interstitial cells, and endothelial cells. In contrast, recombinant macrophage-CSF did not induce the proliferation of human AM, although it has been known to promote the proliferation of murine AM. These observations suggest that GM-CSF plays an important role among the regulatory factors that locally support the population of AM in human lungs. 相似文献

Human granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) was studied for its ability to stimulate the synthesis and release of the inflammatory mediator platelet-activating factor (PAF) from human neutrophils as measured by bioassay and incorporation of [3H]acetate into PAF. GM-CSF stimulated the synthesis but not the release of PAF from neutrophils. PAF synthesis took place in a time- and concentration-dependent manner, was dependent on a pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein and could be inhibited by antibodies to GM-CSF. On the other hand, pre-incubation of neutrophils with GM-CSF followed by stimulation with the bacterial tripeptide formylmethionylleucylphenylalanine caused PAF synthesis and release. The effect of GM-CSF was qualitative and not simply the result of larger amounts of PAF being synthesized since similar amounts were generated in response to the calcium ionophore A23187 but no released PAF could be detected. In functional studies GM-CSF stimulated superoxide anion generation from neutrophils with a time and dose relationship that paralleled PAF synthesis. In addition, the serine protease inhibitor L-1-tosylamide-2-phenylethyl chloromethyl ketone, which inhibits PAF synthesis, reduced PAF accumulation as well as superoxide generation, raising the possibility of a causal relationship between cell-associated PAF and cell activation. These results identify PAF as a direct product of GM-CSF stimulation in neutrophils where it may play a role in signal transduction and demonstrate that PAF is released only after subsequent neutrophil stimulation. The selective release of PAF may play a role in regulating and amplifying the inflammatory response. 相似文献

Colorectal cancers are often composed of cell types representing various differentiated cell lineages, however little is known concerning the relationship of differentiation and drug resistance in these cancers. The present study was performed to develop and characterize a stable, differentiated clone of the human colon cancer cell line LS174T and to characterize the drug resistance of this cell line in relation to its undifferentiated parental cell line. LS174T cell line was treated with the differentiating agent sodium butyrate (0.5 mM) for 30 days, then recultured in standard medium. Foci of flat-appearing cells appeared and were isolated using cloning rings, and subcloned. One subclone was designated LS174T-D. The LS174T-D clone maintains a stable, differentiated phenotype in standard culture conditions in the absence of sodium butyrate. It is characterized by the formation of a polarized monolayer with dome formation and the presence of prominent apical microvilli and tight junctions. This cell line demonstrated reduced growth in soft agar and nude mice compared with the parental cell line. LS174T-D cells expressed immunoreactive intestinal mucin antigens and brush border enzymes dipeptidyl aminopeptidase (DAP)-IV and aminopeptidase. The activities of DAP-IV and aminopeptidase were increased 5.6-fold and 3.4-fold, respectively, in LS174T-D compared with parental cells. Proliferation assays demonstrated that, compared with the parental cell line, LS174T-D cells were more resistant to doxorubicin (93-fold), cisplatin (23-fold), 5-fluorouracil (12-fold), 5-fluorodeoxyuridine (31-fold), and methotrexate (12.5-fold). Intracellular uptake of (3H)-5-fluorodeoxyuridine did not differ significantly in the differentiated and undifferentiated cell lines. Levels of mdr-1 p-glycoprotein measured by Western blot and RNA Northern blot assays were also similarly low in both cell lines. However, total glutathione content and glutathione-S-transferase activities were increased in LS174T-D cells by sixfold and threefold, respectively, compared with parental cells. Depletion of glutathione by pretreatment with DL-buthionine sulfoximine reversed LS174T-D resistance to cisplatin. Long-term treatment with sodium butyrate induces or selects for colon cancer cells with features of enterocytic differentiation. This stably differentiated cell line is associated with glutathione-mediated multidrug resistance, and provides a model for further studies of differentiation in normal and cancerous colon. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 1 This article is a US Government work and, as such, is in the public domain in the United States of America 相似文献

Insulin-like growth factor II acts as an autocrine growth and motility factor in human rhabdomyosarcoma tumors 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

Rhabdomyosarcoma is the most common soft tissue sarcoma of childhood and appears to arise from developing striated muscle-forming cells. Since insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II) is involved in normal muscle growth and maturation and elevated IGF-II mRNA levels have previously been reported in rhabdomyosarcomas, we have been studying the possible role of IGF-II in the unregulated growth and invasive potential of these embryonal tumors. In this study, we demonstrate that 13 of 14 rhabdomyosarcoma tumors express high levels of IGF-II mRNA relative to normal adult muscle and also express mRNA for the type I IGF receptors on their cell surface, the receptor thought to mediate the effects of IGF-II on muscle cells. We have established several rhabdomyosarcoma cell lines in mitogen-free media and demonstrate that these cells express type I IGF receptors on their cell surface and secrete IGF-II into the media. Exogenous IGF-II is able to stimulate cellular motility in these cell lines as assayed in a modified Boyden chamber. Finally, alpha IR-3, a type I receptor antagonist, inhibits the growth of these cell lines in serum-free media but does not inhibit IGF-II-induced motility of these cells. These data suggest that endogenously produced IGF-II functions as an autocrine growth and motility factor in many rhabdomyosarcoma tumors. The mitogenic actions of IGF-II are mediated through a domain of the type I IGF receptor that is blocked by alpha IR-3. IGF-II-induced motility may be mediated through an alternative signaling pathway. 相似文献

Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) has been reported to augment various macrophage (M phi) functions, including antigen presentation in the antibody-producing response. We investigated the augmentative effect of GM-CSF on M phi A-cell activity in concanavalin A-stimulated T-cell proliferation. Pretreatment with GM-CSF of peritoneal M phi enhanced the T-cell proliferative response. This effect of GM-CSF was dose dependent and GM-CSF supplementation was needed at the beginning of M phi culture. We observed that GM-CSF induced M phi spreading and firm attachment accompanied with enlargement of the cytoplasm, but could not induce de novo expression of Ia antigen. GM-CSF treatment enabled M phi to produce more interleukin (IL)-1 and IL-6 upon stimulation with lipopolysaccharides or polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid, but was unable to stimulate M phi directly. This was confirmed by Northern blot analysis. These results indicate that GM-CSF augments M phi A-cell activity through the enhancement of the capacity of M phi to produce IL-1 and IL-6. 相似文献

Interleukin-8 as an autocrine growth factor for human colon carcinoma cells in vitro 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17
Cell lines derived from human colon carcinomas secrete interleukin 8 (IL-8) in vitro and this chemokine has also been detected immunohistochemically in human colon carcinoma specimens, in which it is tumour cell associated. In these experiments, IL-8 was shown to comprise an important component of the angiogenic activity of colon carcinoma cell line supernatants. The effect of modulating IL-8 activity upon the growth of the colon carcinoma cell lines HCT116A, HT29 and CaCo2 was investigated. Supplementing endogenously produced IL-8 by recombinant chemokine led to stimulation of cell growth. Neutralization of the effect of endogenously produced IL-8, either with the specific antagonist peptide AcRRWWCR or with blocking anti-IL-8 antibody, resulted in around 50% inhibition of cell growth (P<0.05). All of the colon carcinoma cell lines tested expressed mRNA for both IL-8RA and RB when grown at confluence. At the protein level, all cell lines expressed IL-8RA. Expression of IL-8RB was weak, although increased expression was seen in HCT116A cells as they approached confluence. Antibodies to IL-8RA and RB did not affect proliferation at low cell density but were strongly inhibitory when cells were cultured at a higher density. These data suggest that IL-8 acts as an autocrine growth factor for colon carcinoma cell lines and would support the concept that a similar autocrine loop operates in vivo. 相似文献

Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) primes the respiratory burst and stimulates protein biosynthesis in human neutrophils 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Pre-treatment of human neutrophils with rGM-CSF resulted in a 3-fold increase in the rate of fMet-Leu-Phe stimulated reactive oxidant generation, as assessed by luminol- and lucigenin-chemiluminescence and O2- secretion. When blood-stream neutrophils were incubated in RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with [35S]methionine, both fMet-Leu-Phe (0.1 microM) and gamma-interferon (100 U/ml) stimulated a 3-4-fold increased incorporation of label into TCA-precipitable material. Similarly, rGM-CSF (50 U/ml) also stimulated protein biosynthesis in bloodstream neutrophils, and newly labelled polypeptides were separated by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Two classes of polypeptides were visualised on these gels: the relative rate of labelling of one class changed very little upon rGM-CSF treatment whereas the relative rate of labelling of a second group increased 3-12-fold. 相似文献

Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor is a growth-factor for promastigotes of Leishmania mexicana amazonensis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In this paper we show that murine lung conditioned medium (LCM) displays, in addition to its already described colony-stimulating activity on bone marrow cells, a potent growth-stimulating activity on promastigotes of Leishmania mexicana amazonesis. Immunoprecipitation of LCM with an antibody specific for murine granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) abrogates both activities, indicating that the leishmanial growth-promoting activity is due to the presence of GM-CSF on LCM. Furthermore, recombinant GM-CSF (rGM-CSF) added to the culture medium or to the immunoprecipitated LCM is able to respectively induce or to partially recover the growth-promoting activity of the LCM. Sequential in vitro passages of the parasite induces a progressive loss of sensitivity to the growth-factor. Parasite forms recently collected from lesions are significantly more responsive to the growth-factor than forms already adapted to grow in culture. Since it has been shown that several different microorganisms display receptors for vertebrate-like hormones and that GM-CSF is able to enhance a cutaneous leishmanial lesion, our results permit us to raise the hypothesis that a direct interaction between a host-derived hormone and a pathogenic microorganism can be of importance in defining the fate of an infection. The fact that GM-CSF is produced by cells that actively participate in a leishmanial infection (T-lymphocytes and macrophages) reinforces our hypothesis. 相似文献

Hepatopoietin (HPO) is a novel human hepatotrophic factor. Its known function is mainly limited to supporting liver regeneration. Recently, it was shown by our laboratory that HPO acts as a mitogen for hepatoma cell lines and that there are HPO-specific receptors on the surface of these cells (Wang, G., et al., J Biol Chem 1999;274:11469-11472), indicating that HPO might be involved in oncogenesis in the liver. To study this hypothesis, we first conducted experiments in vitro to identify the existence of an autocrine loop of HPO/HPO receptor in hepatoma cell lines. It was demonstrated that HPO was actually expressed by hepatoma cells, such as HepG2, Bel 7402, and SMMC-7721, and secreted into the culture medium. Furthermore, it was shown that HPO-neutralizing antibody has an inhibitory effect on the uptake of tritiated thymidine by hepatoma cells. The results strongly suggest that HPO acts as an autocrine factor for hepatoma cells in vitro. 相似文献

Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) regulates proliferation, differentiation, and function of hematopoietic progenitor cells. Aside from expansion of hematopoietic cells, GM-CSF has shown efficacy in other diseases, including Crohn's disease. While GM-CSF being clinically used in humans, the ability to perform mechanistic studies in murine models is difficult due to the limited availability and rapid clearance of murine GM-CSF in the peripheral blood. To address these issues, we efficiently expressed murine GM-CSF under the control of the AOX1 gene promoter in Pichia pastoris using the Mut(S) strain KM71H. We describe the unique conditions that are required for efficient production by high-density fermentation and purification of mGM-CSF protein. Recombinant mGM-CSF protein was purified by tangential flow ultrafiltration and preparative reverse phase chromatography. To address limited half life or rapid clearance in mice, recombinant murine GM-CSF was modified by lysine-directed polyethylene glycol conjugation (PEGylation). PEG-modified and unmodified proteins were characterized by amino terminus sequence analysis and matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Under the mild reaction conditions, the recombinant protein is efficiently modified by PEGylation on an average of 2-3 sites per molecule. In vivo treatment of mice with PEGylated mGM-CSF, but not the unmodified recombinant mGM-CSF, reproduces the potent colony stimulating effects of human GM-CSF in patients on myeloid progenitor populations, as assessed by FACs analysis. This simplified approach for the expression, purification, and modification of a biologically potent form of murine GM-CSF should facilitate the study of central mechanisms of action in murine disease models. 相似文献

Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor in the innate immune response to Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia in mice 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Innate immunity plays an important role in pulmonary host defense against Pneumocystis carinii, an important pathogen in individuals with impaired cell-mediated immunity. We investigated the role of GM-CSF in host defense in a model of P. carinii pneumonia induced by intratracheal inoculation of CD4-depleted mice. Lung GM-CSF levels increased progressively during the infection and were significantly greater than those in uninfected controls 3, 4, and 5 wk after inoculation. When GM-CSF gene-targeted mice (GM-/-) depleted of CD4+ cells were inoculated with P. carinii, the intensities of infection and inflammation were increased significantly compared with those in CD4-depleted wild-type mice. In contrast, transgenic expression of GM-CSF directed solely in the lungs of GM-/- mice (using the surfactant protein C promoter) dramatically decreased the intensity of infection and inflammation 4 wk after inoculation. The concentrations of surfactant proteins A and D were greater in both uninfected and infected GM-/- mice compared with those in wild-type controls, suggesting that this component of the innate response was preserved in the GM-/- mice. However, alveolar macrophages (AM) from GM-/- mice demonstrated impaired phagocytosis of purified murine P. carinii organisms in vitro compared with AM from wild-type mice. Similarly, AM production of TNF-alpha in response to P. carinii in vitro was totally absent in AM from GM-/- mice, while GM-CSF-replete mice produced abundant TNF in this setting. Thus, GM-CSF plays a critical role in the inflammatory response to P. carinii in the setting of impaired cell-mediated immunity through effects on AM activation. 相似文献
