Metastatic Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC-LN7) tumors that secrete granulocyte/macrophage-colonystimulating factor (GM-CSF) stimulate myelopoiesis and induce bone marrow-derived immunosuppressor cells that are homologous to granulocyte/macrophage progenitor cells. In vitro treatment of the LLC-LN7 cells with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 reduced tumor cell production of suppressor-inducing activity, although suppressor-inducing activity could be restored by reconstituting the tumor supernatants with recombinant GM-CSF. Treatment of mice having LLC-LN7 tumors with vitamin D3 reduced tumor production of GM-CSF and the frequency of myeloid progenitor cells. This was associated with a reduction in immunosuppressor activity and an increase in T cell function. Vitamin D3 treatment of mice having palpable tumors transiently retarded tumor growth, but caused a prominent reduction in tumor metastasis. Treating mice with vitamin D3 after tumor excision resulted in a reduction in the tumor-induced myelopoietic stimulation and associated immunosuppressive activity, and enhanced T cell function. These mice had a markedly reduced incidence of tumor recurrence. The results of this study suggest that vitamin D3 treatment of mice with GM-CSF-secreting tumors can interrupt the myelopoiesis-associated immunosuppressor cascade and, in turn, reduce tumor metastasis and recurrence.This study was supported in part by grants from the Medical Research Service of the Department of Veterans Affairs and by grants CA-45080 and CA-48080 from the National Institutes of Health 相似文献

Summary Normal bone marrow cells become immunosuppressive when cultured with supernatants of metastatic Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC-LN7) cells. The suppressorinducing activities in the LLC-LN7 supernatants are interleukin-3 and granulocyte/macrophage-colony-stimulating factor. In the present study, the mechanisms by which these induced suppressor cells (LLCsup-BM) mediate their immunosuppression were investigated. The suppression by LLCsup-BM of splenic concanavalin CA blastogenesis was not dependent on cell contact since immunosuppression occurred regardless of whether the LLCsup-BM were separated from the responder spleen cells by a permeable membrane or if the LLCsup-BM were cocultured with the spleen cells. Culture supernatants of LLCsup-BM also inhibited T cell blastogenesis, being more suppressive than were supernatants of control bone marrow cells, which had been precultured with medium. The suppression by the soluble inhibitors elaborated from the LLCsup-BM was not restricted to the inhibition of T cell function as the supernatants also inhibited the natural killer activity of normal spleen cells. Studies to determine the identity of the suppressive activity produced by the LLCsup-BM showed increased levels of transforming growth factor (TGF) in their supernatants. Immunosuppressive bone marrow and spleen cells obtained from mice bearing metastatic LLC-LN7 tumors also secreted more TGF than did the cells obtained from normal mice. When anti-TGF antibodies were added to the LLCsup-BM supernatants, the suppressive activity was diminished. These results suggest that the LLCsup-BM mediate at least part of their immunosuppression through production of TGF.This study was supported by the Medical Research Services of the Department of Veterans Affairs, and by grants CA-45080 and CA-48080 from the National Institutes of Health 相似文献

Stimulation of immune suppressive CD34+ cells from normal bone marrow by Lewis lung carcinoma tumors

Progressive growth of metastatic Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC-LN7) tumors is associated with increased levels of bone-marrow-derived
CD34+ cells having natural suppressor (NS) activity toward T cells. The present studies determined whether tumor-derived products
are responsible for this induction of NS activity. Culturing normal bone marrow cells with LLC-LN7-conditioned medium (LLC-CM)
or with recombinant granulocyte/macrophage-colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) resulted in the appearance of NS activity. The
development of NS activity coincided with a prominent increase in the levels of CD34+ cells. That the CD34+ cells were responsible for the NS activity of the bone marrow cultures containing LLC-CM was shown by the loss of NS activity
when CD34+ cells were depleted. The stimulation of CD34+ NS cells by LLC-CM was attributed to tumor production of GM-CSF, since neutralization of GM-CSF within the LLC-CM reduced
its capacity to increase CD34+ cell levels. Studies also showed that the induction of CD34+ NS cells by LLC-CM and GM-CSF could be overcome by including in the cultures an inducer of myeloid differentiation, 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin
D3 [1,25(OH)2D3]. These results demonstrate that the mechanism by which the LLC-LN7 tumors stimulate increased levels of CD34+ NS cells from normal bone marrow is by their production of GM-CSF and that this can be blocked with the myeloid differentiation
inducer 1,25(OH)2D3.

Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC-LN7) tumors stimulate myelopoiesis and increase the presence of granulocyte/macrophage (GM) progenitor
cells having natural suppressor activity. Treatment of these tumor-bearing mice with interleukin-12 (IL-12) resulted in minimal
immune modulation. The objective of this study was to determine whether eliminating natural suppressor activity would allow
for immune stimulation by IL-12. Treatment of LLC-LN7 tumor-bearing mice with vitamin D3 eliminated natural suppressor activity. In mice that were first treated with vitamin D3 and then also with IL-12, there was stimulation of splenic T cell proliferation in response to immobilized anti-CD3 plus
IL-2. In addition, spleen and lymph node cells from vitamin-D3/IL-12-treated tumor-bearing mice became stimulated in response to autologous tumor to produce interferon γ (IFNγ), although
IL-2 production was not stimulated. A prominent effect of the combined vitamin-D3/IL-12 treatment regimen was the synergistic augmentation of autologous tumor-specific cytolytic activity within the regional
lymph nodes. The generation of these tumor-specific effector cells required the presence of the tumor mass since such activity
was not elicited in the lymph nodes of mice from which the tumors had been surgically excised. The results of this study show
that, after treatment of tumor bearers with vitamin D3 to eliminate GM-suppressor cells, IL-12 can induce select regional antitumor immune responses, particularly IFNγ production
and cytolysis by regional lymph node cells of autologous tumor.

Summary In vitro growth and differentiation of granulocyte-macrophage progenitor cells (GM-CFU-C) requires colony-stimulating factors (CSF), and an in vivo role for CSF has also been proposed. Prostaglandins of the E series (PGE) have been reported to serve as negative feedback regulators of myelopoiesis. Here, we report evidence of augmented CSF secretion by mouse peritoneal Mo (macrophages) and bone marrow cells in vitro upon stimulation with various biological response modifiers (BRMs). Optimal induction of CSF secretion occurred after in vitro treatment of peritoneal Mo and mononuclear bone marrow cells with 50 g/ml poly ICLC (polyriboinosinic-polycytidylic acid poly-L-lysine), 5 g/ml lipopolysaccharide (LPS), or 500 U/ml interferon (IFN,) for 2 days. The in vitro stimulation of CSF secretion was paralleled by an increase in PGE secretion by Mo and bone marrow cells. The PGE secretion could, however, be selectively blocked by preincubating the cells for 3 h with indomethacin (10–7 Mol) leaving CFS production intact. In vivo treatment of mice with either maleic anhydride divinyl ether copolymer (MVE-2; 25 mg/kg) or poly ICLC (2 mg/kg) significantly increased levels of CSF in serum, as well as in culture supernatants of in vivo-treated peritoneal Mo and bone marrow cells. The increase in serum CSF levels and in secretion of CSF by peritoneal Mo and bone marrow cells was followed by a dose-dependent increase in GM-CFU-C, in nucleated bone marrow cells, and in peripheral blood leukocytes. The same BRMs also stimulated the secretion of PGE by in vivo-activated peritoneal Mo, but not by bone marrow cells. Pretreatment of the mice with indomethacin (4 mg/kg) almost completely suppressed PGE secretion by peritoneal Mo, but did not change the CSF secretion by peritoneal Mo or bone marrow cells and had no significant effect on bone marrow cellularity. Therefore, MVE-2 and poly ICLC, in addition to their immunomodulatory activity, can also have stimulatory effects on myelopoiesis, presumably mediated through secretion of CSFs. Protection and/or restoration of bone marrow function could thus either provide the opportunity for more extensive chemotherapy or could increase the number of Mo effector cells available for activation against tumor targets. 相似文献

Human rIL-7 was studied for its effects on myeloid and erythroid progenitors from human bone marrow cells. IL-7 did not support the granulocytic/monocytic or erythroid lineage but exclusively stimulated eosinophil colony formation (CFU-Eo) (4 +/- 3 vs 48 +/- 17 CFU-Eo/10(5) nonadherent fraction-non-T cell (NAF-NT) cells). This supportive effect was not mediated by T cells or monocytes because similar results were obtained with or without T cell or adherent depleted cell fractions. In addition, it was shown that CD34+ sorted cells could be stimulated by IL-7 (0 vs 15 +/- 9 CFU-Eo/3 x 10(3) CD34+ cells) Furthermore studies with IL-3 or granulocyte-macrophage CSF (GM-CSF) demonstrated an additive effect on the IL-7 supported colony formation. Finally, experiments were performed with anti-IL-3, anti-GM-CSF, anti-IL-1, and anti-IL-5 to exclude the possibility that IL-7 indirectly stimulated the eosinophil progenitor cell. Anti-GM-CSF, anti-IL-1, or anti-IL-3 did not influence the supportive effects of IL-7. However, anti-IL-5 did abolish the effects of IL-7 on the eosinophil colony formation (69 +/- 15 vs 3 +/- 2 CFU-Eo/10(5) NAF-NT, n = 3). Similar results were obtained with CD34+ sorted cells. Moreover, IL-5 mRNA expression could be demonstrated in IL-7-stimulated NAF-NT cells. These data suggest that the supportive effects of IL-7 on eosinophil precursors are mediated by the endogenous release of IL-5. 相似文献

Secretion of colony-stimulating factors by T cell clones. Role in adoptive protection against Listeria monocytogenes 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
CSF have been postulated to be important mediators of host defenses. The current studies were undertaken to investigate the production of CSF by Listeria-specific, T cell clones and to assess the participation of CSF in anti-listerial host resistance. Listeria-specific L3T4+, Lyt-2- T cell clones were isolated and expanded by standard techniques. The clones themselves protected mice from listerial challenge when injected intravenously, and supernatants generated from Ag-stimulated clones were protective. In order to define factors important in the protection, supernatants from the clones were assayed for CSF by several in vitro assays. Total colony-stimulating activity was measured with a bone marrow colony-forming assay. T cell clones secreted 1000 to 2000 U/ml of colony-stimulating activity after 48 hours of stimulation with specific antigen. The relative amounts of the various CSF were determined by the capacity of supernatants to support proliferation of the factor-dependent cell lines FDCP-1 and 32D cl 3 in the presence and absence of specific anti-CSF antibodies. Results showed that most of the CSF activity was due to granulocyte-macrophage (GM)-CSF and IL-3. The role of GM-CSF in anti-listerial host resistance was assessed in two types of experiments. In one set of experiments GM-CSF activity was neutralized in the supernatants by addition of specific rabbit anti-GM-CSF antibodies. Treated and untreated supernatants were then tested for their capacity to protect nonimmune mice against listerial challenge. Neutralization of GM-CSF in the supernatants decreased the protective capacity of the supernatants by approximately 23%. In a second set of studies, the administration of recombinant murine GM-CSF was shown to protect mice from challenges of L. monocytogenes. Taken together, these experiments provide evidence that CSF are important mediators of immune T cell mediated host defenses. 相似文献

Interferon is the suppressor of hematopoiesis generated by stimulated lymphocytes in vitro 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
Lymphocytes that inhibit hematopoiesis may have a pathogenic role in some forms of bone marrow failure, and lymphocyte-mediated suppression may also be important in the normal regulation of bone marrow function. We have investigated the mechanism of in vitro suppression of hematopoiesis by T cells by using the methylcellulose colony culture system. Total peripheral blood T cells and separated subpopulations of helper (OKT4+) and suppressor (OKT8+) cells that have been stimulated by exposure to lectin suppress autologous colony formation by bone marrow myeloid (CFU-C) and erythroid (BFU-E) progenitor cells. Medium conditioned by these cells is also inhibitory, indicating that the suppressor activity is a soluble factor. A strong correlation existed for the concentration of interferon and the degree of hematopoietic suppressor activity in these supernatants; both activities peaked at days 3 to 5 of incubation and had sharply declined by day 7. Interferon production was enhanced by exposure of lymphocytes to sheep red blood cells during the rosetting procedure. Specific antiserum and a monoclonal antibody directed against gamma-(immune) interferon abrogated the inhibitory activity for hematopoiesis produced by lectin-stimulated T cells; an antiserum to alpha-interferon was generally much less effective in neutralizing activity. We infer from these results that gamma-interferon is the mediator of hematopoietic suppression generated by lectin-treated T-cells. 相似文献

Tumor promoting phorbol esters, such as 12-0-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA), stimulate colony formation in vitro by murine granulocyte-macrophage progenitors (GM-CFC) without added colony stimulating factors (CSF). To determine whether TPA induces CSF production in vitro, marrow cells were cultured for 1 to 7 days in liquid medium with or without TPA. No CSF was detected in any sample by a double antibody radioimmunoassay (sensitivity = 2 units/0.1 ml), however, colony-stimulating activity was detected in supernatant fluid from all TPA containing cultures by bioassay. This activity appeared to result from a direct effect of TPA rather than from production of CSF, as equivalent activity was found in TPA-containing medium incubated in the absence of marrow cells. Rabbit antiserum to purified L-cell CSF inhibited colony formation stimulated by L-cell CSF and WEHI-3 CSF, but had no effect on colony formation induced by TPA. Cells from long-term marrow cultures responded to TPA with colony formation, despite culture conditions and cell fractionation procedures that reduced the frequency of CSF-producing macrophages to less than 1.0%. TPA inhibited binding of radioiodinated L-cell CSF to marrow cells, especially if the cells were first exposed to TPA. These results do not support induction of CSF production as the major mechanism of phorbol ester stimulation of myelopoiesis. Phorbol esters may directly stimulate GM-CFC and/or enhance their response to CSF by a mechanism involving CSF binding sites. 相似文献

Prevention of the in vitro myelosuppressive effects of glucocorticosteroids by interleukin 1 (IL 1) 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

We investigated the effects of dexamethasone on the formation of granulocyte/macrophage colonies by murine bone marrow cells cultured with colony-stimulatory factors (CSF) in semisolid agar. Dexamethasone (10(-7) M) completely inhibited the formation of colonies in response to L929 CSF but had no effect on the response to CSF in the culture supernatants of the murine macrophage cell line, PU5-1.8. We postulated that a cofactor, interleukin 1, present in the PU5-1.8 supernatants was responsible for protecting colony formation against steroid suppression. Interleukin 1, isolated from culture supernatants of PU5-1.8 and from culture supernatants of human acute monocytic leukemia cells, blocked the inhabitory effects of dexamethasone on colony formation in response to L929 CSF. Moreover, dexamethasone inhibited colony formation in response to PU5-1.8 culture supernatants when interleukin 1 was absent. We also examined interleukin 2 for possible protective effects. Although crude interleukin 2 preparations (supernatants of spleen cells cultured with concanavalin A) blocked dexamethasone inhibition, purified interleukin 2 had no protective effects. These data indicate that interleukin 1 protects colony formation by a pathway that is independent of interleukin 2 and that supernatants of spleen cells activated with concanavalin A probably contain significant amount of interleukin 1. 相似文献

Transient abnormal myelopoiesis (TAM) in neonates with Down syndrome, which spontaneously resolves within several weeks or months after birth, may represent a very special form of leukemia arising in the fetal liver (FL). To explore the role of the fetal hematopoietic microenvironment in the pathogenesis of TAM, we examined the in vitro influences of stromal cells of human FL and fetal bone marrow (FBM) on the growth of TAM blasts. Both FL and FBM stromal cells expressed mesenchymal cell antigens (vimentin, α‐smooth muscle actin, CD146, and nestin), being consistent with perivascular cells/mesenchymal stem cells that support hematopoietic stem cells. In addition, a small fraction of the FL stromal cells expressed an epithelial marker, cytokeratin 8, indicating that they could be cells in epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT). In the coculture system, stromal cells of the FL, but not FBM, potently supported the growth of TAM blast progenitors, mainly through humoral factors. High concentrations of hematopoietic growth factors were detected in culture supernatants of the FL stromal cells and a neutralizing antibody against granulocyte‐macrophage colony‐stimulating factor (GM‐CSF) almost completely inhibited the growth‐supportive activity of the culture supernatants. These results indicate that FL stromal cells with unique characteristics of EMT cells provide a pivotal hematopoietic microenvironment for TAM blasts and that GM‐CSF produced by FL stromal cells may play an important role in the pathogenesis of TAM.

There is evidence that stromal cells are responsive to changes in their external milieu and that this can affect their function. IL-1 has been identified as one mediator that can affect stromal cells by increasing their secretion of CSF. The monokine has also been reported to be a B cell differentiation factor. The purpose of this study was to test the effects of IL-1 on the pattern of hemopoietic cell differentiation by adding IL-1 alpha to myeloid long term bone marrow cultures (MBMC) at the time of their transfer to lymphoid bone marrow culture conditions. This usually results in the cessation of myelopoiesis and the induction of B lymphopoiesis. The addition of 50 U/ml of rIL-1 alpha, but not 10 U/ml, to MBMC at the time of their transfer to lymphoid conditions resulted in a complete inhibition of B cell differentiation and sustained myelopoiesis. To determine whether adherent layer cells contributed to this effect, conditioned medium (CM) was collected from adherent layers treated previously with the antibiotic mycophenolic acid. This depletes the hemopoietic cells from the cultures and retains a purified population of stromal cells. CM from mycophenolic acid- treated adherent layers exposed for 24 h to 50 U/ml of IL-1 was added at volume concentrations of 5, 10, and 25% to MBMC at the time of transfer to lymphoid bone marrow culture conditions and at each feeding thereafter. Expression of the B lineage associated 14.8 Ag and IgM was inhibited on a dose dependent basis, and myelopoiesis was sustained in cultures to which 25% CM had been added. Induction of B lymphopoiesis occurred in cultures to which adherent cell CM not exposed to IL-1 had been added. The CM from the IL-1-treated adherent cells contained CSF, because it promoted the growth of myeloid colonies from fresh marrow or MBMC cells and stimulated the granulocyte-macrophage-CSF sensitive FDC-P1 cell line to proliferate. IL-3 was not present in the CM, because stimulation of the IL-3 sensitive 32D cell line was not observed. The CM from the IL-1-treated adherent cells stimulated thymocytes to proliferate in the presence of PHA. This raised the possibility that the induced CSF may have required IL-1 to mediate their effects in the cultures. However, B lymphopoiesis was inhibited and myelopoiesis maintained upon addition of recombinant granulocyte-, macrophage-, and granulocyte-macrophage-CSF to cultures, indicating that IL-1 or other non-CSF molecules induced by it need not be present.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Suppression of natural killer activity in human blood and bone marrow cultures by bone marrow-adherent OKM1-positive cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Maintenance and regulation of natural killer (NK) cell activity in human bone marrow cultures were studied using K562 leukemia cells as targets. Culture of bone marrow cells in medium supporting long-term generation of myeloid cells resulted in a rapid loss of NK activity in 1-3 days. In contrast, antibody-dependent cytotoxicity to an NK-resistant tumor was maintained for more than 7 weeks. Horse serum, a component of the myelopoietic culture medium, was found to diminish NK cytotoxicity of blood and bone marrow cultures whereas hydrocortisone supplement did not. In addition, an adherent cell is present in bone marrow which greatly inhibits NK activity. Nonadherent bone marrow cells exhibited higher cytotoxicity than unfractionated cells at all days of culture; adherent cells were not cytotoxic to K562. Purified adherent marrow cells inhibited the cytotoxic capacity of nonadherent blood or marrow mononuclear cells during coculture. Indomethacin, an inhibitor of protaglandin synthesis, augmented levels of NK activity in cultures of bone marrow cells, indicating that macrophages may be suppressing this effector function via prostaglandins. Further identification of the adherent suppressor cells came from experiments in which suppression was prevented by treatment of the adherent cells with monoclonal OKM1 antibody plus complement. This study shows that bone marrow-adherent OKM1-positive cells, presumably macrophages, negatively regulate NK activity, and it defines conditions for analysis of the generation and/or positive regulation of NK cells in human bone marrow. 相似文献

Stimulation of suppressor cells in the bone marrow and spleens of high dose cyclophosphamide-treated C57Bl/6 mice 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
D A Nikcevich G P Duffie M R Young N K Ellis G E Kaufman H T Wepsic 《Cellular immunology》1987,109(2):349-359
Systemic administration of a single dose (300 mg/kg) of cyclophosphamide (Cy) induced the appearance of a population of suppressor cells in the bone marrow and spleens of mice. Suppressor cells were assayed by their capacity to inhibit the concanavalin A (Con A) blastogenesis or the mixed-lymphocyte response of normal C57Bl/6 spleen cells. Cy-induced bone marrow (Cy-BM) suppressor cells were present as early as 4 days following Cy therapy and their activity gradually decreased over the next 2 weeks. Cy-induced splenic (Cy-Sp) suppressor cells were maximally present on Days 6 through 10 following Cy therapy. Studies were performed to characterize the suppressor cells of bone marrow obtained 4 days after Cy treatment and of normal bone marrow (N-BM). Some suppressor activity was present in normal bone marrow. N-BM suppressor cells resembled cells of the monocyte/macrophage lineage in that they were slightly adherent to Sephadex G-10, sensitive to L-leucine methyl ester (LME), and insensitive to treatment either with anti-T-cell antibody and complement or with anti-immunoglobulin antibody and complement. Their suppressive activity was abrogated by incubation with either indomethacin or catalase. Cy-BM suppressor cells were also resistant to treatment with anti-T-cell and anti-immunoglobulin antibody and complement but were not adherent to Sephadex G-10 and not sensitive to LME. Their suppressive activity was partially eliminated by indomethacin alone or in combination with catalase. We conclude that Cy chemotherapy induces the appearance of a population of immune suppressive cells and that these cells appear first in the bone marrow and subsequently in the spleen. 相似文献

Sialoadhesin (sheep erythrocyte receptor, SER) is a macrophage-restricted adhesion molecule that binds certain sialylated
ligands. It is borne by bone marrow stromal macrophages, promoting the interaction with developing myeloid cells, and by a
subset of tissue macrophages involved in antigen presentation and activation of tumor-reactive T cells. The expression of
sialoadhesin on SER+ macrophages is not constitutive but requires the continuous supply of a sialoadhesin-inducing serum factor. Tumor growth
is often associated with marked alterations of myelopoiesis and impairment of T cell activation; yet the expression of sialoadhesin
in macrophages derived from tumor bearers has not been addressed. The aim of this study was to assess whether Ehrlich tumor
(ET) – a murine mammary carcinoma – growth may modify the sialoadhesin expression by bone marrow macrophages and/or sialoadhesin-inducing
activity in ET-bearing sera. Moreover, putative functional sialoadhesin inhibitors produced by ET cells were tested. The results
indicate that bone marrow cells from ET bearers show a seven- to eight-fold decrease in SER+ cells as detected by flow cytometry. This is accompanied by an overall decrease in sheep erythrocyte binding to tumor-bearer-derived
bone marrow cells, but also by lower numbers of plastic-adherent cells. Functional sialoadhesin expression is preserved at
the single-cell level and no inhibitors are found in ET-bearing sera or ET cell culture supernatants. Tumor progression does
not impair the sialoadhesin-inducing activity of ET-bearing sera, or the ability of SER− macrophages (e.g. peritoneal macrophages) to respond to such an induction. In conclusion, while SER+ macrophages are greatly decreased in bone marrow from ET bearers, this is not due to a down-regulation of sialoadhesin expression,
nor to an impairment of sialoadhesin-inducing factor or to the presence of sialoadhesin-binding moieties of tumor origin,
but, more likely, to a decrease of fully mature macrophages.

Stimulation of hematopoiesis and bone marrow suppressor cells by the subcutaneous injection of linoleic acid 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The effects of injection of linoleic acid into C57Bl/6 mice on hematopoietic and immunological parameters were examined. Administration of linoleic acid stimulated hematopoiesis as it increased spleen weight and cellularity, increased the number of bone marrow and splenic granulocytic-monocytic progenitor cells, and increased the colony stimulating factor activity in the serum of the treated mice. Associated with the hematopoietic stimulation in linoleic acid-treated mice was a decline in the spleen cell blastogenic responses and the appearance of bone marrow suppressor cells which were inhibitory to normal spleen cell blastogenesis. The linoleic acid-induced bone marrow suppressor cells resembled cells of the monocyte lineage in that they were sensitive to treatment with L-leucine methyl ester, partially sensitive to treatment with anti-Ia antibodies and complement, and their suppressor activity was minimized by indomethacin, a prostaglandin synthesis inhibitor. These results suggest that administration of linoleic acid results in hematopoietic stimulation and, concurrently, in the appearance of suppressor cells in the bone marrow. The bone marrow suppressor cells resemble immature cells of the monocyte lineage and appear to mediate their suppressive effects through the production of prostaglandins. 相似文献

Olfactory ensheathing glia and Schwann cells: two of a kind? 总被引:22,自引:0,他引:22
Prostatic carcinoma affects 1 in 11 men and targets bone with sclerotic metastases. The study of prostate carcinoma growth in bone has been hampered by the lack of suitable animal models. We have developed an in vivo model of prostate carcinoma growth in bone by inoculating three human prostate carcinoma cell lines (PC-3, DU-145, and LNCaP) into the tibia of congenitally athymic mice. Developing tumors were analyzed by radiographic, histologic, immunohistochemical, and in situ hybridization examination. Seven of the nine PC-3 inoculated mice and all (9/9) of the DU-145 inoculated mice developed tumors in the injected limb. In contrast, inoculation with LNCaP cells failed to produce tumors (0/9). Radiologically, the tumors had a mixed sclerotic/lytic appearance with extracortical extension. All the PC-3 tumors invaded the bone marrow cavity, cortical bone, and surrounding soft tissue. The DU-145 tumors were confined to the bone marrow cavity in 7/9 animals. CK18 and Ki67 localization identified the human tumor cells and their proliferative activity, respectively. The PC-3- and DU-145-induced tibial tumors expressed alpha(1)I procollagen and osteopontin mRNA, to varying degrees. All the tumors demonstrated an up-regulation of osteoclasts at the bone/tumor interface compared with the control limbs. Thus, this is a reliable and reproducible in vivo model of prostate carcinoma growth in bone enabling the study of the interactions that occur between prostate cancer cells and bone at an important part of the metastatic cascade, namely, growth and invasion at a distant site. 相似文献

Myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) from tumor-bearing mice are important negative regulators of anti-cancer immune responses, but the role for immature myeloid cells (IMCs) in non-tumor-bearing mice in the regulation of immune responses are poorly described. We studied the immune-suppressive activity of IMCs from the bone marrow (BM) of C57Bl/6 mice and the mechanism(s) by which they inhibit T–cell activation and proliferation. IMCs, isolated from BM by high-speed FACS, inhibited mitogen-induced proliferation of CD4+ and CD8+ T-cells in vitro. Cell-to-cell contact of T-cells with viable IMCs was required for suppression. Neither neutralizing antibodies to TGFβ1, nor genetic disruption of indolamine 2,3-dioxygenase, abrogated IMC-mediated suppressive activity. In contrast, suppression of T-cell proliferation was absent in cultures containing IMCs from interferon-γ (IFN-γ) receptor KO mice or T-cells from IFN-γ KO mice (on the C57Bl/6 background). The addition of NO inhibitors to co-cultures of T-cells and IMC significantly reduced the suppressive activity of IMCs. IFN-γ signaling between T-cells and IMCs induced paracrine Nitric Oxide (NO) release in culture, and the degree of inhibition of T-cell proliferation was proportional to NO levels. The suppressive activity of IMCs from the bone marrow of tumor-free mice was comparable with MDSCs from BALB/c bearing mice 4T1 mammary tumors. These results indicate that IMCs have a role in regulating T-cell activation and proliferation in the BM microenvironment. 相似文献

In this study, we have demonstrated that Korean Panax ginseng (KG) significantly enhances myelopoiesis in vitro and reconstitutes bone marrow after 5-flurouracil-induced (5FU) myelosuppression in mice. KG promoted total white blood cell, lymphocyte, neutrophil and platelet counts and improved body weight, spleen weight, and thymus weight. The number of CFU-GM in bone marrow cells of mice and serum levels of IL-3 and GM-CSF were significantly improved after KG treatment. KG induced significant c-Kit, SCF and IL-1 mRNA expression in spleen. Moreover, treatment with KG led to marked improvements in 5FU-induced histopathological changes in bone marrow and spleen, and partial suppression of thymus damage. The levels of IL-3 and GM-CSF in cultured bone marrow cells after 24 h stimulation with KG were considerably increased. The mechanism underlying promotion of myelopoiesis by KG was assessed by monitoring gene expression at two time-points of 4 and 8 h. Treatment with Rg1 (0.5, 1 and 1.5 μmol) specifically enhanced c-Kit, IL-6 and TNF-α mRNA expression in cultured bone marrow cells. Our results collectively suggest that the anti-myelotoxicity activity and promotion of myelopoiesis by KG are mediated through cytokines. Moreover, the ginsenoside, Rg1, supports the role of KG in myelopoiesis to some extent. 相似文献

Neutralization of interleukin-11 activity decreases osteoclast formation and increases cancellous bone volume in ovariectomized mice 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The issue of whether interleukin-11 (IL-11) contributes to bone loss during states of estrogen deficiency has not been previously determined. We therefore randomized ovariectomized (OVX) mice to once daily interperitoneal injections of either sheep anti-murine IL-11 Ab or normal sheep IgG (NSIgG) for 21 days, and then determined the effects on bone using bone histomorphometry. Here we report that treatment of OVX mice with anti-IL-11 Ab significantly increases both trabecular width and cancellous bone volume. Osteoblast activity, as measured by the percentage of trabecular surface covered by osteoid and rates of bone formation, were also significantly increased following treatment with anti-IL-11 Ab. In contrast, treatment of OVX mice with anti-IL-11 Ab significantly decreased both osteoclast number and activity. Ex-vivo assays of osteoclast formation and activity confirmed the histomorphometric data. Thus, bone marrow cells isolated from anti-IL-11 Ab treated OVX mice formed fewer osteoclasts and resorbed less bone in culture than did marrow cells isolated from either untreated or NSIgG-treated OVX mice. Based on these results we conclude that IL-11 contributes to the bone loss which is observed during states of estrogen deficiency. 相似文献
