Interleukin-11 stimulates multiple phases of erythropoiesis in vitro

VF Quesniaux, SC Clark, K Turner and B Fagg

Preclinical Research, Sandoz Pharma Ltd, Basel, Switzerland.

Interleukin-11 (IL-11), a pleiotropic cytokine originally isolated from a primate bone marrow stromal cell line, has been shown to stimulate T- cell-dependent B-cell maturation, megakaryopoiesis, and various stages of myeloid differentiation, but to inhibit adipogenesis. Because stromal cells are essential for the maintenance of early hematopoietic progenitor cells in long-term culture, we investigated the effects of IL-11 on multipotent and erythroid precursors from murine bone marrow in vitro in suspension and semisolid cultures. Our results show that in the presence of IL-3 or c-kit ligand (KL), IL-11 has profound stimulatory effects on primitive multilineage hematopoietic progenitors, pre-CFC(multi), as well as on precursors representing various stages of erythroid differentiation observable in vitro, including CFC(multi), BFU-E, and CFU-E. In addition, the combination of KL with IL-11 also stimulated highly proliferative erythroid progenitors that yield remarkable macroscopic erythroblast colonies in culture. These results indicate that IL-11 is likely to play a pivotal role in early hematopoiesis and at multiple stages of erythropoiesis.
