Abstract: | Primary erythroid cells and erythroid cell lines may synthesize and secrete tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) following stimulation with erythropoietin (EPO). The effect of triggering TNF-alpha synthesis and secretion was investigated in erythroleukemia and myeloid cell lines: HCD57, DA3-EPOR, and BAF3-EPOR. The EPO-induced, membrane-bound form of autocrine TNF-alpha seemed to enhance proliferation of HCD57 and DA3-EPOR cells; however, the concentration of secreted autocrine/paracrine TNF-alpha was never sufficient to have an effect. Autocrine TNF-alpha acts through TNFRII receptors to stimulate proliferation. Modulation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)/extracellular signal-related kinase (ERK-1/2) activity by the membrane-bound form of autocrine TNF-alpha apparently played a central role in the control of EPO-dependent proliferation of HCD57 and DA3-EPOR cells. Primary erythroid cells and DA3-EPOR cells were found to express similar, high levels of both TNFRI and TNFRII, showing that differential expression of TNF-alpha receptors does not explain why primary cells are inhibited and DA3-EPOR cells are stimulated by autocrine TNF-alpha. BAF3 cells expressing a mutant EPOR with no cytoplasmic tyrosine residues were capable of triggering EPO-dependent TNF-alpha synthesis and secretion, indicating that tyrosine-docking sites in the EPOR were not required for EPO-dependent TNF-alpha secretion. |
