چکیده

A novel human cell line, KMT-2, from umbilical cord blood cells was established based on the selection of cultures in the presence of recombinant human interleukin-3 (IL-3) and the sorting of cells with anti-My 10 antibody. Morphologic and cytochemical studies (peroxidase negative, Sudan-black negative, chloroacetate esterase negative, PAS positive, nonspecific esterase positive) and phenotyping (HLA-DR, My7 = CD13, My9 = CD33, My10 = CD34, MCS-2, LeuM1 positive, glycophorin A negative, and P2 negative) suggest that the KMT-2 cells are myelomonocytic cells, probably of immature progenitor origin. Besides IL-3, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor supported the growth of the KMT-2 cells, but IL-1 alpha, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, and erythropoietin did not. IL-6 showed only slight activity. Binding studies with 125I-labeled recombinant human (rh) IL-3 indicated that IL-3 bound to a single class of high affinity receptors (approximately 4,000 receptors/cell) on KMT-2 cells with a kd of approximately 200 pmol/L. The chemical cross-linking assay demonstrated that radiolabeled hIL-3 bound three molecules with molecular masses of 170, 130, and 70 Kd. Present data suggest that the newly established human cell line will be a valuable tool for the biologic assay of hIL-3, and a model for biochemical studies of IL-3 receptors.

PLENARY PAPER Activation of Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor and Interleukin-3 Receptor Subunits in a Multipotential Hematopoietic Progenitor Cell Line Leads to Differential Effects on Development

Activation of specific cytokine receptors promotes survival and proliferation of hematopoietic progenitor cells but their role in the control of differentiation is unclear. To address this issue, the effects of human interleukin-3 (hIL-3) and human granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (hGMCSF) on hematopoietic development were investigated in hematopoietic progenitor cells.

Introduction of the human interleukin-6 (IL-6) receptor in murine IL-3-dependent hematopoietic cells restores responsiveness to IL-6.

To create experimental systems that facilitate studies aimed at the responsiveness of hematopoietic progenitors to interleukin (IL)-6 in combination with IL-3, we introduced the human IL-6 receptor (hIL-6R) into the IL-3-dependent cell line 32D. For this purpose, a retroviral vector containing the hIL-6R cDNA was constructed. 32D parental cells did not respond to IL-6, neither alone nor in comb...
