Modulation of normal and abnormal myeloid progenitor proliferation by cyclic nucleotides and PGE1 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The effects of cyclic nucleotides and PGE1 upon the proliferation of normal granulocyte/macrophage progenitors were examined in in vitro systems and contrasted to the effects of these compounds on (1) granulocyte/macrophage progenitors from the peripheral blood of patients with myeolofibrosis/myeloid metaplasia (MF) and chronic myelogeneous leukemia (CML); and (2) blast progenitors from the peripheral blood of patients with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) and acute monocytic leukemia (AMoL). Cyclic AMP was found to be a concentration dependent inhibitor of colony proliferation in all systems tested. Cyclic GMP was an inconsistent enhancer of colony proliferation in all systems in a manner which was not clearly concentration dependent. The effect of PGE1 in normal systems was highly variable depending on the culture conditions, but it was generally found to be an inhibitor of colony proliferation. Cyclic AMP, cyclic GMP and PGE1 altered the release of colony stimulating activity from adherent bone marrow cells in a manner opposite to the direct effects of these compounds on progenitor cell proliferation. Abnormalities in response to PGE1 were found in progenitors from patients with CML (deficient inhibition), AMoL (stimulation of proliferation in certain concentration ranges), and MF (enhanced proliferation). Studies on one of the patients with MF indicated that a normally responding population could be defined by density-gradient separation. These data confirm the capacity of these compounds to modulate in vitro proliferation of myeloid progenitors, and suggest that aberrations of response to PGE1 may occur in subpopulations of cells from several myeloproliferative disorders. 相似文献

Previous work has established the presence of an unbalanced chromosome abnormality [+der(1),t(1;7)(p11;p11)] in some therapy-associated myelodysplastic disorders. Recently the EGF receptor has been found to reside at 7p11. Using a probe specific for erb B oncogene, which encodes a truncated form of the EGF receptor, we examined RNA and DNA derived from bone marrow and peripheral blood mononuclear cells from three patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and one with acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL), all bearing an abnormal clone in their bone marrow with a similar unbalanced 1;7 translocation. DNA-excess slot blot hybridization to 5'-32p-labeled cellular RNA revealed from ten- to thirtyfold enhancement in accumulation of mRNA specific for erb B in both peripheral blood and bone marrow cells of the three MDS patients when compared to normal controls. In addition, enhancement of H-ras mRNA accumulation was detected in some, though expression of other genes such as actin, N-ras, myc, src, B-lym, and 20 other genes was not found to be enhanced. Increased erb B expression was not apparent in mononuclear cells from patients with other hematologic disorders such as chronic lymphocytic leukemia, Hodgkin's disease, or lymphoma. Southern blot analysis of restriction-enzyme-cleaved DNA from three MDS patients with an unbalanced 1;7 translocation revealed that erb B gene was amplified at least twentyfold in peripheral blood white blood cells, while levels of actin hybridization were comparable to those of the controls. No such amplification was evident in the ALL patient. Our data suggest that +der(1),t(1;7)(p11;p11) chromosomal anomalies can be specifically associated with amplification of erb B DNA and RNA sequences. 相似文献

Summary Fragile sites were analyzed in normal peripheral lymphocytes from two acute nonlymphocytic leukemia patients with t(7;11)(p15-p13;p15) leukemic cells. To induce expression of fragile sites, cultures were exposed to folate deprivation (M-F10), BrdU, distamycin A, or Hoechst 33258. Fragility at 11p15.1 was induced by distamycin A and Hoechst 33258 but was not seen in M-F10, BrdU, and control cultures. Fra(11)(p15.1) was found neither in healthy Japanese subjects (0 in 845) nor in patients with leukemia or other hematologic disorders without the t(7;11) (0 in 126). From these results, fra(11)(p15.1) can now be calssified as a rare distamycin A-inducible fragile site. Furthermore, this fra(11)(p15.1) coincided with one of the breakpoints of the t(7;11)(p15-p13;p15). 相似文献

Circulating erythroid progenitors from 14 patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and from 8 healthy subjects were studied in culture to determine the frequency and size of CFU-E- and BFU-E-derived colonies. Cells were cultured in a plasma clot system, and hemoglobinized colonies identified by diaminobenzidine reaction. The numbers of CFU-E and BFU-E per milliliter of peripheral blood were greatly increased in 10 patients when compared to controls. In 13 patients, the size distribution of BFU-E-derived colonies, analyzed by counting the number of subunits in each colony, was also found to differ significantly from controls, with a large excess of small colonies and a low percentage or a total lack of large colonies. This abnormal BFU-E size distribution was partially corrected, in the 5 patients tested, by the addition to the culture medium of 10% phytohemagglutinin-leukocyte-conditioned medium (PHA-LCM). Bone marrow crowding out of the normal progenitors, as well as disturbances in the cellular interactions involved in their normal development, most likely explain these results and these factors could be implicated in the frequent pancytopenia of ALL. 相似文献

Beta cell function, peripheral sensitivity to insulin and islet cell autoimmunity in cystic fibrosis patients with normal glucose tolerance 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Beta cell function, peripheral sensitivity to insulin and specific pancreatic autoimmunity were studied in 30 youngsters with cystic fibrosis (CF) accurately selected in order to fulfill the criteria for normal glucose tolerance. With respect to weight-matched controls, patients with CF exhibited a significantly lower glucose tolerance and a globally preserved, although delayed, insulin response to oral glucose tolerance test, while first-phase insulin secretion after i.v. glucose was blunted. Peripheral sensitivity to insulin, assessed in vivo by both the euglycemic clamp technique and the number of insulin receptors, directly measured in circulating monocytes, was superimposable in patients and controls. Serum islet-cell antibodies were not found in any of the patients. In conclusion, disorders of beta cell function may be observed in CF patients even when glucose tolerance is within the normal range. Such abnormalities are not associated with changes in peripheral sensitivity to insulin and do not seem to depend on specific autoimmune events. 相似文献

Induction of NK cell activity against fresh human leukemia in culture with interleukin 2 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
E Lotzová C A Savary R B Herberman 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》1987,138(8):2718-2727
Natural killer (NK) cells have been implicated in defense against malignancies, especially leukemia. Because patients with leukemia and preleukemic disorders manifest low NK activity, it is possible that NK cell impairment may contribute to leukemogenesis. In view of this possibility, it was important to characterize the NK cell defect of leukemic patients and to design new approaches for its correction. Analysis of the mechanism of NK cell defect demonstrated that NK cells of leukemic patients were impaired in their tumor-binding and lytic activity and did not display ability to recycle or to produce cytotoxic factor. However, deficient NK activity could be corrected by culture of peripheral blood effector cells with IL 2. IL 2-activated NK cells manifested restoration of all measured parameters of the cytotoxic mechanism, as exemplified by normalized tumor-binding and lytic activity, as well as the rate of lysis and ability to recycle. Importantly, such in vitro stimulated cytotoxic cells displayed reactivity against fresh leukemic cells of autologous as well as allogeneic origin. Another interesting observation from these studies was that the NK activity was also induced in the leukemic bone marrow, a tissue with a very low frequency of cytotoxic NK cells. It is important to note that cultured NK cells did not represent a stationary cell population, but proliferated in vitro quite actively (doubling time 3 to 6 days) for at least 5 wk. Characterization of the in vitro generated cytotoxic cells indicated that these cells displayed large granular lymphocyte morphology and CD16 and Leu-19 cell surface phenotype. Our data demonstrate that the NK cell defect of leukemic patients is not a permanent phenomenon, but can be reversed in culture with IL 2, and that fully cytotoxic NK cells can be maintained and expanded in vitro. Thus, it is reasonable to suggest that adoptive transfer of autologous NK cells to the patients may represent a promising new therapy for treatment of leukemia. 相似文献

Based on the previous finding that erythrocytes from patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia stain with the fluorescent dye merocyanine 540, erythrocytes from patients with other myeloproliferative disorders were examined for their ability to bind the membrane probe. As assessed by both fluorescence staining and a quantitative dye removal assay, all samples of erythrocytes from patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia, polycythemia vera, myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia and essential thrombocythemia bound more dye than did erythrocytes from normal, healthy individuals. Erythrocytes from three of six patients with acute myelogenous leukemia also showed increased affinity for the dye. In contrast, erythrocytes from three patients with acute lymphocytic leukemia and one with unclassifiable leukemia bound only normal amounts of dye. The procedures described may be useful as a supplemental aid to diagnosis of myeloproliferative disorders or for investigation of hematological diseases where multilineage involvement is suspected. 相似文献

Primate and rabbit antisera to different morphologic classes of human leukemia cells, after appropriate absorptions, detected leukemia-associated antigens present on cultured lymphoblastoid cell lines derived from leukemia patients. The primate antisera distinguished antigens on cells derived from myeloid leukemia patients from those on cells derived from lymphocytic leukemia patients. Of particular interest was the fact that antigens of myeloid leukemia, but not of lymphatic leukemia, were detected on lymphoid cell lines established from blood of patients with myeloid leukemia. One of four lymphoblastoid cell lines derived from normal donors expressed antigens of lymphatic leukemia. Leukemia-associated antigens were not found on the HRIK lymphoblastoid line derived from a Burkitt's lymphoma patient on skin fibroblasts or HeLa cells. Expression of these antigens on cultured cells derived from leukemia patients could not be related to the presence of the EB virus or the EB virus genome. Rabbit antisera detected antigens common to cells from patients with myeloid and lymphocytic leukemia. Absorption experiments demonstrated that the antigens detected on cell lines derived from leukemia patients are similar to those detected by the primate and rabbit antisera on fresh peripheral blood leukemic cells. The serologic detection of leukemia-associated antigens on lymphoblastoid cell lines indicates that some of these cultures contain cells with antigenic properties similar to those of human peripheral blood leukemic cells. 相似文献

Summary The numbers of strongly adherent monocytes in the peripheral blood of normal subjects and cancer patients were determined. The method used was to place peripheral blood mononuclear cells in microwells and culture them for 1 week. At the end of that period, adherent macrophages were counted in the Coulter counter after release. Adherent cells per milliliter of blood, per total cells, and per mononuclear cells or monocytes plated were markedly diminished in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells of 44 melanoma, 23 breast cancer, 18 lung cancer, nine colon cancer, and 27 leukemia patients. Median values were 14.8×104 adherent cells per ml peripheral blood for 86 normal subjects, as against 2.5×104 per ml in the peripheral blood of the 125 patients (P<0.001). There was a poor correlation between the adherent cell numbers and the peripheral blood leukocyte counts, but an excellent correlation of the different adherent cell counts with each other. The number of adherent cells in the peripheral blood varied inversely with age in the cancer patients, but not in the normal subjects (r=0.29, P<0.005). When patients under age 50 were compared to the controls, the deficiency of adherent cells was slightly more severe in patients with stage IV lung cancer than in those with stage III lung cancer. In contrast, there was no difference in the degree of deficiency between patients with stage III melanoma and no evident disease and patients with stage IV disseminated metastatic disease. The implications of these results are discussed. 相似文献

Conditioned medium from mitogen stimulated normal peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) has been demonstrated to contain a maturation inducer activity mediating the differentiation of human myeloid leukemia cells to monocytes and macrophages. The maturation inducer activity was isolated by salt precipitation, Sepharose CL-6B ion exchange and affinity chromatographies and electrophoresis. Two separate activities with M.W. ranges of 52-56 and 32-35 kDa capable of mediating the terminal differentiation of leukemic HL-60 promyelocytes to monocytes and macrophages were detected. The higher molecular weight species was determined to be a 54 kDa single polypeptide and was found to be distinct from IL-3 and IL-6 by ELISA and differentiation blocking assay. The inducing activity of the 32-35 kDa material was largely neutralized after treatment with anti-IL-3, but not with other antibodies. Employing the immunofluorescent antibody technique, the 54 kDa protein was detected on the surface membranes of PBL. The proportions and number of maturation inducer bearing lymphocytes in patients with acute myelogenous leukemia (0.4% and 35/mm3, respectively) were significantly lower than that of healthy donors (7.9% and 178/mm3) The role of these physiological factors in leukemia cell differentiation is discussed. 相似文献

Molecular analysis of TCR clonotypes in LGL: a clonal model for polyclonal responses 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
O'Keefe CL Plasilova M Wlodarski M Risitano AM Rodriguez AR Howe E Young NS Hsi E Maciejewski JP 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》2004,172(3):1960-1969
Large granular lymphocytic (LGL) leukemia is a clonal lymphoproliferative disorder of CTL associated with cytopenias resulting from an immune and cytokine attack on hemopoietic progenitor cells. Extreme clonality of CTL expansions seen in LGL leukemia makes it an ideal model to study the role of the T cell repertoire in other less-polarized immune-mediated disorders. Complementarity-determining region 3 (CDR3) of the TCR is a unique Ag-specific region that can serve as a molecular marker, or clonotype, of the disease-specific T cells. We studied the variable portion of the beta-chain spectrum in a cohort of LGL leukemia patients. The CDR3 sequences were determined for the immunodominant clones and used to design clonotype-specific primers. By direct and semi-nested amplification, clonotype amplicons were found to be shared by multiple patients and controls. Analysis of the generated sequences demonstrated that the original clonotypes are rarely encountered in normal control samples; however, high levels of homology were found in both controls and patients. Clonotypes derived from individual LGL patients can be used as tumor markers for the malignant clone. More generally, clonotypic analysis and comparison of the variable portion of the beta-chain CDR3-specific sequences from a large number of patients may lead to better subclassification of not only LGL but also other immune-mediated disorders. 相似文献

Detection of minimal residual disease (MRD) in childhood leukemia is not possible by cytomorphology or Southern blotting due to their low sensitivity. On the other hand, the use of DNA markers and PCR amplification is helpful in a smaller proportion of leukemia cases (20-30%). Since childhood leukemia is characterized by WT1 gene expression in the majority of cases,monitoring of WT1 expression in the peripheral blood was suggested to be a method of choice to detect MRD. We have studied 22 newly diagnosed childhood acute leukemias and 17 cases in remission. As controls, 19 patients with non-leukemic diseases were included. The majority of our acute leukemia cases (80%) were proved to be WT1 expressors using a highly sensitive nested PCR technique. Ten WT1 + cases have been monitored for a year throughout the inicial therapy phase, using peripheral blood tests. We observed that in 20% of the follow-up cases MRD was suggested which was not detectable by any other methods. It is our intention to introduce this new molecular technique into the clinical management of childhood acute leukemia. 相似文献

Essential elements, mainly selenium and zinc, were involved in protection against oxidative stress in cells. Oxidation could
lead to the formation of free radicals that have been implicated in the pathogenesis of many diseases, including leukemia.
Leukemia is a neoplastic disease that is susceptible to antioxidant enzyme and essential elements alterations. This study
was undertaken to examine the levels of essential elements, antioxidant enzymes activities, and their relationships with different
types of leukemia. Serum selenium, zinc, and copper concentrations, red blood cell glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activities,
plasma Cu−Zn superoxide dismutase (Cu−Zn SOD) activities and lipid peroxidation (LPO) levels were determined in 49 patients
with different types of leukemia before initial treatment. Serum selenium and zinc concentrations were lower in leukemia patients
than those of controls (p<0.01). Serum copper concentration was higher in leukemia patients than that of controls (p<0.01). The activities GPx and Cu−Zn SOD were significantly increased in leukemia patients, especially with acute leukemia
(AL), acute lymphoid leukemia (ALL), and acute nonlymphoid leukemia (ANLL) (p<0.05), whereas no difference was found between those of chronic myelogeneous leukemia and the controls. The levels of LPO
were normal as controls. Serum selenium concentration was not correlated with GPx, and serum levels of zinc and copper were
not related to Cu−Zn SOD. Serum zinc levels had a negative correlation with the absolute peripheral blast cells, whereas serum
copper had a positive correlation with the absolute peripheral blast cells. Increased GPx and Cu−Zn SOD activities and normal
levels of LPO, which were a protective responses, were an indicator of mild oxidative stress; it mights indicate that the
essentials elements alterations in leukemia patients were mostly dependent on tumor activity. Changes of their levels demonstrated
that there are low selenium, zinc, and high copper status in leukemia patients. The decrease of plasma zinc and increase of
the Cu/Zn ratio could be the index that showed an unfavorable prognosis of acute leukemia. 相似文献

A tissue culture cell system for isolation and identification of members of the murine leukemia virus group (the complement fixation for murine leukemia test) was modified to permit the isolation of naturally occurring virus from leukemic and normal mice. The important factors for increasing the sensitivity of the test were the use of National Institutes of Health (NIH) strain Webster Swiss embryo cell cultures and the selection of rat-immune sera having complement-fixing antibodies to tissue culture antigens of both the Gross and FMR subgroups. In all, 163 strains of mouse leukemia virus, from 11 inbred mouse strains, have been isolated. Representative virus isolates were shown to possess the properties of the murine leukemia virus group; i.e., they were chloroform-sensitive, noncytopathic agents which replicated in mouse embryo tissue culture and produced group-reactive, complement-fixing antigen and budding C-type particles visible by electron microscopy. These viruses could serve as helpers in the rescue of Moloney sarcoma virus genome from non-producer hamster sarcoma cells, yielding pseudotypes. All of the 19 field isolates tested were neutralized by Gross passage A antiserum but not by potent antisera to the Moloney, Rauscher, and Friend strains. Virus was recovered regularly from embryos and from the plasma and spleen of adult mice of high leukemic strains. In low leukemic mouse strains, different patterns of virus detection were observed. In C3H/He mice, virus was occasionally present in embryos and was found in 40% of adult spleens. BALB/c mice were virus-negative as fetuses or weanlings, but spleens of more than half of the mice over 6 months of age yielded virus. NIH mice have never yielded virus. In reciprocal matings between AKR and BALB/c mice, virus recovery from embryos was maternally determined. The development of tissue culture isolation procedures made possible for the first time the application of classical infectious disease methods to the study of the natural history of murine leukemia virus infection. 相似文献

Protein with a molecular mass of 53000 daltons undetectable in healthy persons was identified by electrophoresis in peripheral blood leukocytes of patients with Down's syndrome. The protein was completely extracted with 0.4 N HCl from leukocyte homogenates and was found to be identical, as regards electrophoretic mobility, to protein detected in two patients with chronic myeloblastic leukemia. The causes of discrepancy between theoretically expected and electrophoresis-revealed differences in protein composition of normal and trisomal cells. 相似文献

Serial blood samples from 37 Nova Scotian patients with different forms of leukemia and other malignant conditions of bone marrow and lymphoid tissue were tested for the hepatitis-associated antigen (HAA). Ten patients were found to be positive for HAA. Not only is there an increased incidence of HAA in this population group, but when present the antigen is carried for a longer period than in the normal individual. The increased incidence was completely unrelated to the blood transfusion histories of the patients. 相似文献

The conversion of physiology to pathophysiology in hematological disorders viz: aplastic anemia, myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and leukemia in murine models was the subject of study in the present programme. Peripheral blood hemogram, spleno-somatic index, bone marrow smear study, cytochemical staining of marrow, cell release kinetics study during marrow explants culture, hematopoietic niche assessment, chromosomal aberration study, plasma membrane stability study of marrow cells, lysosomal membrane and mitochondrial membrane stability study and innate immune parameters were performed in the aplastic anemia, leukemia and MDS mouse model. In bone marrow aplasia, peripheral blood pancytopenia, marrow hypocellularity, decreased marrow cellular viability, deterioration of bone marrow hematopoiesis as well as hematopoietic microenvironment and extramedullary hematopoiesis were noticed. In addition, disruption of mitochondrial and lysosomal membrane integrity along with reduction of innate immune parameters were found in the hematopoietic suppressed condition. Surprisingly, no noticeable chromosomal aberration was found in the aplastic condition. Ineffective marrow hematopoiesis together with the disruption of hematopoietic microenvironment was observed in MDS. Also, extramedullary hematopoiesis, increased marrow cellular death, chromosomal aberration and loss of innate immunity were the common events. During leukemia, the number of functionally and structurally immature cells in the peripheral blood and bone marrow was increased together with malignant conversion of hematopoietic cells in the presence of malignancy supportive stromal microenvironment. Chromosomal aberration, decrease of cell mediated immunity with least mitochondrial apoptotic damage were also found in leukemic condition as well. 相似文献

Summary The proliferative response of T-enriched lymphocytes to autologous antigenic determinants present in cell populations depleted of T lymphocytes (autologous mixed lymphocyte reaction) was investigated in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia at different clinical stages and during clinical remission and in patients with hairy cell leukemia and patients with malignant lymphoma in long-term remission (median 35.5 months). An absence of autologous reactivity was found independently of the tumor burden, and no restitution of the autologous response was observed in patients in clinical remission. The response to phytohemagglutinin and to irradiated allogeneic T-depleted lymphocytes from normal individuals was found to be preserved in all patients, but lower than in healthy subjects. These observations suggest a defect of either the responder or stimulator population or a defect in the mechanism(s) regulating the autologous response. The possible pathogenic role of the AMLR in malignant lymphoproliferative disorders is discussed. 相似文献
