Expression of aIIbb3 Integrin (GPIIb-IIIa) in Myeloid Cell Lines and Normal CD34+/CD33+ Bone Marrow Cells

چکیده
Regulation of myeloid cell proliferation and differentiation in the bone marrow is mediated, in part, by the interaction of integrins on early myeloid cells with the extracellular matrix proteins secreted by stromal cells. To further define adhesive protein receptors of early myeloid cells, we examined the expression of the integrin GPIIb-IIIa (aIIbb3) in leukemic cell lines KG-1a, KG-1, and HL-60, that represent early stages of myeloid differentiation. All three cell lines expressed surface GPIIb-IIIa as measured by flow cytometry and by binding of 125I-anti-GPIIb-IIIa monoclonal antibody. Preincubation of cells with human AB serum or platelet releasate increased GPIIb-IIIa surface expression. GPIIb transcripts were identified in all three cell lines by Northern blot analysis. Furthermore, we readily detected GPIIb transcripts in fluorescence activated cell sorted (FACS) myeloid cells from normal human bone marrow by RT-PCR. Cloning and sequencing of the PCR products established the identity of GPIIb transcripts in the leukemic cell lines and CD341/CD331 normal bone marrow cells. Since the normal myeloid cells also demonstrated markers corresponding to the maturational stage of KG-1a/KG-1 cells, we propose that GPIIb-IIIa may serve as a myeloid differentiation antigen and as a key integrin of myeloid precursors.

Range Determination of Antigen Expression in Myeloid, Erythroid and Lymphoid Cell Lineages among Patients with Myelodysplastic Syndrome
Background: Myelodysplastic syndrome is a mixed clonal disorder of bone marrow progenitor cells. Understanding the pattern of the different lineage-specific, immature, and mature markers in myelodysplastic syndrome will help in setting-up the frame of reference to diagnose. Patients and Methods: We compared 60 bone marrow samples from 30 newly-diagnosed patients with myelodysplastic syndrome ...

The fibrinogen receptor GPIIb-IIIa integrin is known to be expressed on cells of the megakaryocytic lineage, but its presence on hematopoietic progenitors has been a controversial issue. To resolve this ambiguity unequivocally, we performed clonogenic assays and intrathymic cell-transfer experiments in congenic animals. As the ontogeny of the avian hematopoietic system is well documented, we us...

Background: Mutation in NPM1 gene has been reported to be the most common genetic mutation in de novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML). AML with NPM1 gene mutation usually presents with higher initial leukocyte and blast cell counts and negative CD34 expression. We aimed to investigate the difference of initial leukocyte counts, bone marrow blast cell counts and expression of CD34 among patients wi...

The multidrug-resistance gene, MDR1 is expressed in many normal tissues, but little is known about its expression in normal hematopoietic cells. Using the monoclonal antibody C219 and flow cytometric analysis, P-glycoprotein (P-gp) was found to be expressed in all peripheral blood (PB) subpopulations (CD4, CD8, CD14, CD19, CD56) except granulocytes. To specifically determine MDR1 gene expressio...
