Abstract
The interferon-inducible (Ifi)204 gene was isolated as a macrophage-colony stimulating factor (M-CSF)-responsive gene using a gene trap approach in the myeloid interleukin-3 (IL-3)-dependent FD-Fms cell line, which differentiates in macrophages in response to M-CSF. Here, we show that Ifi204 was transcriptionally activated in response to M-CSF, and FD-Fms cells decreased their growth and committed toward a macrophage morphology; this induction was abrogated when the differentiation signal of the M-CSF receptor was blocked; the Ifi204 gene was also induced during macrophage differentiation controlled by leukemia inhibitory factor; and the Ifi204 gene is expressed in different mature monocyte/macrophage cells. Finally, we showed that enforced expression of Ifi204 strongly decreased IL-3- and M-CSF-dependent proliferation and conversely, favored macrophage differentiation of FD-Fms cells in response to M-CSF. Altogether, these results demonstrate that the Ifi204 gene is activated during macrophage development and suggest that the Ifi204 protein may act as a regulator of the balance between proliferation and differentiation. Moreover, this study suggests that other members of the Ifi family might act as regulators of hematopoiesis under the control of hemopoietic cytokines.

Abstract
Haematopoiesis is regulated by a wide variety of glycoprotein hormones, including stem cell factor, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, thrombopoietin and IL-3. These haematopoietic growth factors (HGFs) share a number of properties, including redundancy, pleiotropy, autocrine and paracrine effects, receptor subunit oligomerisation and similar signal transduction mechanisms, yet each one has a unique spectrum of haematopoietic activity. Ongoing studies with knockout mice have discovered previously unrecognised physiological roles for HGFs, linking haematopoiesis to innate immunity, pulmonary physiology and bone metabolism. The regulation of stem cells by HGFs within niches of the bone marrow microenvironment is now well recognised and similar mechanisms appear to exist in the regulation of other stem cell compartments. Alternative signalling strategies, other than tyrosine kinase activation and phosphotyrosine cascades, may account for some of the more subtle differences between HGFs. Accumulating evidence suggests that some, but not all, HGF receptors can transduce a genuine lineage-determining signal at certain points in haematopoiesis. Further studies, primarily at the receptor level, are needed to determine the mechanisms of instructive signalling, which may include phosphoserine cascades. Novel haematopoietic regulators, as well as the development of biological therapies, including growth factor antagonists and peptide mimetics, are also discussed.

Abstract
Mona/Gads is a Grb2-related, Src homology 3 (SH3) and SH2 domain-containing adapter protein whose expression is restricted to cells of hematopoietic lineage (i.e., monocytes and T lymphocytes). During monocyte/macrophage differentiation, Mona is induced and interacts with the macrophage colony-stimulating factor receptor, M-CSFR (also called Fms), suggesting that Mona could be involved in developmental signaling downstream of the M-CSFR by recruiting additional signaling proteins to the activated receptor. Our present results identify Mona as a specific partner protein for the DOS/Gab family member Gab3 in monocytic/macrophage development. Mona does not interact with Gab2; however, Gab3 also forms a complex with the Mona-related adapter Grb2. Glutathione S-transferase pull-down experiments demonstrate that the Mona and Gab3 interaction utilizes the carboxy-terminal SH3 domain of Mona and the atypical proline-rich domain of Gab3. Mona is known to interact with the phosphorylated Y697 site of the M-CSFR. The M-CSFR mutation Y697F exhibited qualitative and quantitative abnormalities in receptor and Gab3 tyrosine phosphorylation, and Mona induction was greatly reduced. The Y807F M-CSFR mutation is defective in differentiation signaling, but not growth signaling, and also fails to induce Mona protein expression. During M-CSF-stimulated macrophage differentiation of mouse bone marrow cells, Mona and Gab3 expression is coinduced, these proteins interact, and Mona engages in multimolecular complexes. These data suggest that association of Mona and Gab3 plays a specific role in mediating the M-CSFR differentiation signal.

Abstract
We attempted to characterize the phenotype of cells which initiate fibroblastic stromal cell formation (stroma-initiating cells: SICs), precursor cells for fibroblastic stromal cells, based on the expression of cell surface antigens. First, we stained adult murine bone marrow cells with several monoclonal antibodies and separated them by magnetic cell sorting. SICs were abundant in the c-kit(+), Sca-1(+), CD34(+), VCAM-1(+), c-fms(+), and Mac-1(-) populations. SICs were recovered in the lineage-negative (Lin(-)) cells but not the Lin(+) cells. When macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) was absent from the culture medium, no stromal colony appeared among the populations enriched in SICs. Based on these findings, the cells negative for lineage markers and positive for c-fms (M-CSF receptor) were further divided on the basis of the expression of c-kit, VCAM-1, Sca-1 or CD34 with a fluorescence-activated cell sorter. SICs were found to be enriched in the Lin(-)c-fms(+)c-kit(low) cells and Lin(-)c-fms(+)VCAM-1(+) cells but not in Lin(-)c-fms(+)Sca-1(+) cells and Lin(-)c-fms(+)CD34(low) cells. As a result, the SICs were found to be present at highest frequency in Lin(-)c-fms(+)c-kit(low)VCAM-1(+) cells: a mean of 64% of the SICs in the Lin(-) cells were recovered in the population. In morphology and several characteristics, the stromal cells derived from Lin(-)c-fms(+)c-kit(low)VCAM-1(+) cells resembled fibroblastic cells. The number of Lin(-)c-fms(+)c-kit(low)VCAM-1(+) cells in bone marrow of mice injected with M-CSF was higher than that in control mice. In this study, we identified SICs as Lin(-)c-fms(+)c-kit(low)VCAM-1(+) cells and demonstrated that M-CSF had the ability to increase the cell population in vivo.

Abstract
Differentiation of macrophages from myeloid progenitor cells depends on a discrete balance between cell growth, survival, and differentiation signals. Interleukin-3 (IL-3) supports the growth and survival of myeloid progenitor cells through the activation of Jak2 tyrosine kinase, and macrophage differentiation has been shown to be regulated by protein kinase C (PKC). During terminal differentiation of macrophages, the cells lose their mitogenic response to IL-3 and undergo growth arrest, but the underlying signaling mechanisms have remained elusive. Here we show that in IL-3–dependent 32D myeloid progenitor cells, the differentiation-inducing PKC isoforms PKC- and PKC-δ specifically caused rapid inhibition of IL-3–induced tyrosine phosphorylation. The target for this inhibition was Jak2, and the activation of PKC by 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate treatment also abrogated IL-3–induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Jak2 in Ba/F3 cells. The mechanism of this regulation was investigated in 32D and COS7 cells, and the inhibition of Jak2 required catalytic activity of PKC-δ and involved the phosphorylation of Jak2 on serine and threonine residues by the associated PKC-δ. Furthermore, PKC-δ inhibited the in vitro catalytic activity of Jak2, indicating that Jak2 was a direct target for PKC-δ. In 32D cells, the inhibition of Jak2 either by PKC-δ, tyrosine kinase inhibitor AG490, or IL-3 deprivation caused a similar growth arrest. Reversal of PKC-δ–mediated inhibition by the overexpression of Jak2 promoted apoptosis in differentiating 32D cells. These results demonstrate a PKC-mediated negative regulatory mechanism of cytokine signaling and Jak2, and they suggest that it serves to integrate growth-promoting and differentiation signals during macrophage differentiation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells can proliferate in vitro in the absence of added growth factors when cultured at high cell density. Autocrine growth factor production is a postulated mechanism of autonomous growth. We sought to examine this using murine AML cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS We have utilized a Moloney murine leukemia virus (M-MuLV) model of AML to investigate the nature of autonomous in vitro growth of myeloid leukemic cells. RESULTS Like human AML, M-MuLV-induced myeloid leukemic cells displayed autonomous growth in unstimulated high cell density cultures. However, replating of individual, primary, growth factor autonomous colonies of leukemic cells demonstrated the presence of clonogenic cells capable of autonomous growth when cultured at low cell density. In addition, there was heterogeneity in the progeny of these cells: both factor-dependent leukemic cells and cells autonomous of exogenous factor were observed. CONCLUSION We propose that clonogenic cells capable of autonomous growth at low cell density represent leukemic progenitors while the majority of leukemic cells derived from these "autonomous" leukemic cells are factor-dependent.

Abstract
Tumor growth is associated with neutrophilia, thrombocytosis, and extramedullar hematopoiesis. The mechanism(s) accounting for these phenomena is unclear, although granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and/or granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) released by tumor cells have been involved. We studied whether CSF released by Ehrlich tumor (ET) may play a role. A comparative study was performed with two cell variants (ET and ET/0) growing in euthymic, nude, and SCID mice. Extramedullar hematopoiesis was assessed in the spleen by scoring organ enlargement, wheat germ agglutinin ve+ cells, and interleukin 3-dependent granulocyte-macrophage colony-forming unit (GM-CFU). Both cell lines showed the same cytokine profile by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction, including GM-CSF, G-CSF, and macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF); yet, only ET cells produced detectable colony-stimulating activity in vitro, mainly due to GM-CSF. No differences in tumorigenicity were noted between ET and ET/0 cells inoculated to normal or immunodeficient mice. An increase in extramedullar hematopoiesis, accompanied by neutrophilia and thrombocytosis, was associated with tumor progression irrespective of the cell line. A strong correlation was obtained between the increase in splenic GM-CFU and tumor mass (r = 0.96, p < 0.0001) that was independent on the tumor cell line, strain of mice, or stage of tumor development. The results point against CSF released by tumor cells and/or reactive host T cells as the only factors involved in the extramedullar hematopoiesis in this tumor model. The remarkable correlation between splenic GM-CFU and the tumor mass still suggests that a factor(s) of tumor origin may play a critical role.

Abstract
Kupffer cells were selectively eliminated in mice by the intravenous administration of liposome-entrapped dichloromethylene diphosphonate. At 5 days, small peroxidase-negative and acid-phosphatase-weakly-positive macrophages appeared, increased in number, and differentiated into peroxidase- and acid-phosphatase-positive Kupffer cells. Repopulating small macrophages actively proliferated, and the number of Kupffer cells returned to the normal level by day 14. The numbers of macrophage precursors in the liver as detected by the monoclonal antibodies ER-MP20 and ER-MP58 increased after liposome-entrapped dichloromethylene diphosphonate injection. ER-MP58-positive cells proliferated and differentiated into ER-MP20-positive cells and eventually into BM8-positive Kupffer cells in the liver. Bone-marrow-derived ER-MP58-positive cells were also detectable in the liver and differentiated into ER-MP20-positive cells, but they did not become BM8-positive macrophages. Macrophage colony-stimulating factor mRNA expression was enhanced in the liver 1 day after injection. The administration of macrophage colony-stimulating factor did not shorten the period of Kupffer cell depletion but increased the number and the proliferative capacity of repopulating Kupffer cells. These findings implied that repopulating Kupffer cells are derived from a macrophage precursor pool in the liver rather than from bone-marrow-derived monocytes. Local production of macrophage colony-stimulating factor in the liver plays a crucial role in the differentiation, maturation, and proliferation of Kupffer cells.

Abstract
Kupffer cells were isolated from C57BL/6 mice by collagenase perfusion and assessed for response to colony-stimulating factors (CSFs) in terms of their phenotypic change and proliferation. Kupffer cells expressed F4/80, but not Mac-1, CD71, or asialo-GM1 initially. This phenotype pattern was different from that of alveolar and peritoneal macrophages. After stimulation with recombinant human macrophage CSF (M-CSF) or mouse granulocyte-macrophage CSF (GM-CSF), Kupffer cells expressed Mac-1 and a low level of CD71 in addition to F4/80 and increased in phagocytotic activity in association with the expression of CR3. Both M-CSF and GM-CSF, but not human IL-3, induced the proliferation of Kupffer cells in a dose-dependent manner, and after 7 days, the number of the cells increased to about four to six times the initial number. The relatively high dose of GM-CSF downmodulated the M-CSF receptor on Kupffer cells and inhibited the cell proliferation induced by the optimal dose of M-CSF. These data indicated that murine Kupffer cells have a different phenotype from other macrophages and that they respond to M-CSF and GM-CSF, leading to functional maturation and proliferation.

Abstract
In both murine and human systems the c-kit ligand, also known as mast cell growth factor (MGF), acts synergistically with several colony stimulating factors, including the granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and interleukin 3 (IL-3), in stimulating the proliferation and differentiation of different types of hematopoietic progenitors. In addition, MGF is also known to enhance the effects of GM-CSF and IL-3 on the in vitro proliferative activity of myeloid leukemic cells. MGF synergizes with a number of other cytokines such as GM-CSF, IL-3, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6 and IL-9 in sustaining the proliferation of growth factor dependent M-07e cells. In order to explore the molecular basis of this synergistic activity and to elucidate the regulatory mechanisms of c-kit expression, we investigated the effects of GM-CSF, IL-3 and MGF on c-kit mRNA and protein levels in M-07e cells. GM-CSF, unlike MGF and IL-3, induced a transient but significant increase of c-kit mRNA levels. Moreover, following MGF and GM-CSF treatment, c-kit protein expression in M-07e cells decreased, whereas all the other cytokines tested are unable to modulate c-kit protein. These data together with the results of protein turnover analysis suggest that MGF and GM-CSF regulate c-kit expression at the post-transcriptional level. In addition, the finding that IL-3 has no detectable effect on c-kit expression raises the possibility that GM-CSF-induced c-kit regulation is not mediated by the common signal transducing element: the beta subunit of the IL-3/GM-CSF receptor complex.
