    Circulating stem cells in mice treated with cyclophosphamide (1992)
    American Society of Hematology
    Details
    Publication Date: 1992-07-01
    Description: Chemotherapy has been used clinically to mobilize hematopoietic progenitor cells into the peripheral blood so that they can be harvested for autologous transplantation. In humans, this is demonstrated by the presence of circulating granulocyte-macrophage colony-forming cells (CFU-GM) and CD34-positive cells, but it has not been possible to confirm the presence of marrow-repopulating stem cells. In this study, we treated mice with 200 mg/kg cyclophosphamide (CY) and measured the numbers of white blood cells, day 12 CFU-S (CFU- S12), and CFU-GM in the peripheral blood. There was a peak in the numbers of CFU-S12 and CFU-GM 8 days after treatment with cyclophosphamide. Peripheral blood cells taken at this time rescued lethally irradiated mice and engraftment of donor cells was confirmed after 140 days in sex mismatched recipients using a Y chromosome- specific probe. In vitro culture of the blood cells harvested after cyclophosphamide showed that they proliferated in suspension cultures for at least a year in the presence of interleukin-3. The cultured cells rapidly lost their abilities to rescue irradiated mice and to form colonies in vitro, but they did not become leukemic. Also, CY- treated mice were irradiated with a leukemogenic dose of x-rays to coincide with peak circulating cell numbers but these animals did not develop an excess of leukemias over mice given irradiation alone.

    Multilineage phenotypes of interleukin-3-dependent progenitor cells (1992)
    American Society of Hematology
    Details
    Publication Date: 1992-04-15
    Description: Interleukin-3 (IL-3)-dependent murine FDCP-mix cells have multilineage differentiation capacity; they are nonleukemic, have a normal karyotype, and are nonimmortalized. These cells coexpress on their cell surface the “early” B-lineage marker B220/CD45R and the myeloid marker Mac-1/iC3b receptor (CR3), transcribe germline T-cell receptor gamma genes, and express the macrophage lineage growth factor receptor gene c- fms as a predominant 8.4-kb transcript. They do not detectably express at the stable mRNA or protein level other lymphoid precursor cell genes including CD2, TdT, lambda 5, and BP1. Induction of granulocyte/macrophage differentiation in these cells closes down expression of the lymphoid genes and activates stable expression of genes specific to the myeloid lineage, including myeloperoxidase. Expression of the c-fms gene at the mRNA level is upregulated and the dominant stable transcript is now in the 4.1-kb form typical of the macrophage lineage. These data provide a plausible explanation for the coexpression of lymphoid and myeloid lineage markers on human leukemic cells of stem cell or progenitor cell origin and have implications for the programming of lineage potential in normal multipotential hematopoiteic progenitor cells.
