Recombinant human IL-7 administration in mice affects colony-forming units-spleen and lymphoid precursor cell localization and accelerates engraftment of bone marrow transplants.

چکیده
Murine reconstitution assays were used to investigate the effects of recombinant human interleukin-7 (rhIL-7) on myeloid and lymphoid precursors and on bone marrow engraftment. Reconstitution with bone marrow from rhIL-7-treated mice results in a 3.4-fold decrease in total colony-forming unit-spleen (CFU-S) activity (day 9) and an 18.1- and 11.9-fold decrease in its ability to generate thymocytes and splenic B lineage cells, respectively. In contrast, after reconstitution with splenocytes from rhIL-7-treated mice, CFU-S activity increased 23.6-fold (day 9) and the thymocyte and splenic B lineage cell regenerative capacity increased by 4.0- and 3.2-fold, respectively. In addition, CD43low+, B220low+ cells that contain pre-pro-B cells and pro-B cells were expanded two- to threefold and Ig mu-, B220+, CD2- and Ig mu-, B220+, CD2+ B lineage cells were expanded approximately 10-fold and 10- to 45-fold (depending on the tissue examined), respectively, after rhIL-7 treatment. Administration of rhIL-7 to irradiated mice transplanted with bone marrow resulted in accelerated T cell and B cell reconstitution by up to 2-4 weeks. Thus, rhIL-7 administration affects the distribution of myeloid and lymphoid precursors. Moreover, rhIL-7 administration accelerates murine bone marrow cell engraftment and therefore may be useful in reducing the engraftment time in bone marrow transplant patients.

Irradiated C57BL/6 (H-2b) recipients of T-cell-depleted (TCD) BALB/c (H-2d) bone marrow (BM) and recombinant interleukin-1 alpha (IL-1 alpha) (1 microgram/d) had a significantly (P less than or equal to .006) higher 100-day actuarial survival rate, accelerated hematopoietic recovery, and higher levels of alloengraftment than a group of transplanted control mice treated identically, but given ph...
متن کاملHematopoietic stem cells in the blood after stem cell factor and interleukin-11 administration: evidence for different mechanisms of mobilization.
Peripheral blood stem cells and progenitor cells, collected during recovery from exposure to cytotoxic agents or after cytokine administration, are being increasingly used in clinical bone marrow transplantation. To determine factors important for mobilization of both primitive stem cells and progenitor cells to the blood, we studied the blood and splenic and marrow compartments of intact and s...
متن کاملMobilization of long-term reconstituting hematopoietic stem cells in mice by recombinant human interleukin 7
Administration of recombinant human interleukin 7 (rh)IL-7 to mice has been reported by our group to increase the exportation of myeloid progenitors (colony-forming unit [CFU]-c and CFU-granulocyte erythroid megakarocyte macrophage) from the bone marrow to peripheral organs (blood, spleen[s], and liver). We now report that IL-7 also stimulates a sixfold increase in the number of more primitive ...
متن کاملUse of scid mice to identify and quantitate lymphoid-restricted stem cells in long-term bone marrow cultures.
Mice homozygous for an autosomal recessive scid (severe combined immune deficiency) mutation on chromosome 16 exhibit a defect that specifically impairs lymphoid differentiation but not myelopoiesis. Consequently such mice are deficient in both humoral and cell-mediated immune functions. Despite their defect, scid mice survive under pathogen-free conditions and are fertile. The mutation does no...

Introduction: Hematopoiesis is an on going process mammalian marrow system. A few cells from the nucleated cells of bone marrow are hematopoietic cells which include primary stem cells, precursor cells and progenitor cells. Primary stem cells and progenitor cells are able to produce colonies in culture medium (CFU-C) and irradiated mouse spleen (CFU-S). A hematopoietic cell is alive and act...
