Comparative analysis of hematopoietic growth factors released by stromal cells from normal donors or transplanted patients.

We compared the erythroid burst-promoting activity (BPA) and colony-stimulating activity (CSA) released under serum-deprived conditions by stromal cells derived from nine normal subjects and from nine patients after bone marrow transplantation. BPA and CSA were defined according to the capacity of the conditioned media (CM) to stimulate formation of erythroid bursts and granulocyte/macrophage (GM) colonies in serum-deprived cultures of nonadherent marrow cells. Six patients (group A) failed to establish or maintain successful allografts during the study. The remaining three (group B) did not experience problems with engraftment. CM from all stromal cell cultures contained detectable levels of BPA. Preincubation of the CM with an anti-GM colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) monoclonal antibody (MoAb), but not with a rabbit anti-interleukin-3 (IL-3) serum, reduced BPA by an average of 94%. CM from normal and group B stromal cell cultures contained detectable CSA, and the levels correlated with the amounts of granulocyte-CSF (G-CSF) detected by a specific bioassay. G-CSF was not detectable in medium conditioned by stromal cells from transplanted patients with poor marrow function. These results indicate that CM from stromal cells from normal subjects and transplanted patients with good marrow function contain both GM-CSF and G-CSF, while CM from stromal cells from transplanted patients with poor marrow function contain detectable levels of GM-CSF only. The reduced capacity of these stromal cells to produce G-CSF is associated with a reduced capacity of the CM to sustain GM colony formation and may be associated with the inability of these patients to sustain their neutrophil counts in vivo.
