Autocrine secretion of GM-CSF in acute myeloblastic leukemia

DC Young and JD Griffin

Three cases of acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML) were identified in which clonogenic cells proliferated autonomously in vitro. Cells from two of these cases were found to secrete a colony-stimulating factor (CSF) that was immunologically and molecularly related to GM-CSF. Growth of AML-CFU could be blocked by the addition of a neutralizing antiserum to GM-CSF. Northern blot hybridization of leukemic cell mRNA with a cDNA probe for the GM-CSF gene revealed a 1-kb message identical in size to the normal GM-CSF message in stimulated T cells. No GM-CSF message was detected in the third case. These results indicate that constitutive expression of the GM-CSF gene, apparently by leukemic cells, can result in autonomous in vitro proliferation of AML-CFU in some cases of AML.
