The granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) and
Flt-3 receptor agonist progenipoietin-1 (ProGP-1) has potent
effects on dendritic cell (DC) expansion and may be an alternative to G-CSF for the mobilization of stem cells for allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT). We studied the ability of stem cell grafts mobilized with this agent to induce graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) to
minor and major histocompatibility antigens in the well-described B6 B6D2F1 SCT model. ProGP-1, G-CSF, or control diluent was administered to donor B6 mice. ProGP-1 expanded all cell lineages in
the spleen, and unseparated splenocytes from these animals produced
large amounts of interleukin 10 (IL-10) and transforming growth factor
beta (TGF ) whereas the expression of T-cell adhesion molecules was
diminished. Transplantation survival was 0%, 50%, and 90% in
recipients of control-, G-CSF-, and ProGP-1-treated allogeneic donor
splenocytes, respectively (P < .0001). Donor pretreatment with ProGP-1 allowed a 4-fold escalation in T-cell dose
over that possible with G-CSF. Donor CD4 T cells from allogeneic SCT
recipients of ProGP-1 splenocytes demonstrated an anergic response to
host antigen, and cytokine production (interferon gamma [IFN ],
IL-4, and IL-10) was also reduced while CD8 T-cell cytotoxicity to host
antigens remained intact. Neither CD11chi DCs nor
CD11cdim/B220hi DCs from ProGP-1-treated
animals conferred protection from GVHD when added to control spleen.
Conversely, when equal numbers of purified T cells from control-,
G-CSF-, or ProGP-1-treated allogeneic donors were added to allogeneic
T-cell-depleted control spleen, survival at day 60 was 0%, 15%, and
90%, respectively (P < .0001). The improved survival in
recipients of ProGP-1 T cells was associated with reductions in
systemic tumor necrosis factor alpha generation and GVHD of the
gastrointestinal tract. We conclude that donor pretreatment with
ProGP-1 is superior to G-CSF for the prevention of GVHD after
allogeneic SCT, primarily due to incremental affects on T-cell
phenotype and function.
