| Popis: | Serial observations of blast cell colony development from spleen cells of mice treated with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) four days earlier revealed that either form of human interleukin-1 (IL-1 alpha or IL-1 beta) hastens the emergence of interleukin-3 (IL-3)-dependent blast cell colonies. This activity was essentially indistinguishable from the effect of interleukin-6 (IL-6) or granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) in the same system, an effect that we have ascribed previously to a shortening of the G0 period of the dormant stem cells. We also analyzed the time courses of colony formation from cultures of day-2 post-5-FU marrow cells supported by IL-1 alpha, IL-6, or G-CSF alone or in combination with IL-3. In the presence of IL-3, G-CSF and IL-6 but not IL-1 alpha hastened the development of colonies and increased the numbers of multilineage colonies relative to cultures of IL-3 alone. This observation, together with our previous data from the human system, suggests that the synergistic effect of IL-1 is likely due to induction of secondary growth factors, including IL-6 and G-CSF, by accessory cells in culture. The effect of IL-6 on G0 was confirmed by analysis of the cycling status of progenitor cells in short-term culture. While neither IL-3 nor IL-6 alone had any effect on the cycling status, the combination of factors resulted in a rapid recruitment of quiescent cells into cell cycle (within 48 hours) as represented by a twofold increase in the numbers of multipotential progenitors and a significant increase in the sensitivity of these cells to 3H-thymidine with high specific activity. Combinational testing of all of these synergistic factors revealed that the target cell populations for the IL-1, IL-6, and G-CSF overlap considerably, suggesting that they all may act through a common mechanism. This is further supported by our finding that cells from blast cell colonies grown in the presence of a combination of any one of the synergistic factors with IL-3 replate with higher efficiency and yield more multilineage secondary colonies than those from colonies grown in IL-3 alone. These findings provide further evidence that IL-1, IL-6, and G- CSF serve to integrate the immediate host responses to infection through augmentation of effector cells and antibody production as well as the longer term host responses by recruitment of dormant hemopoietic stem cells into active cell cycling. |
