Early CD34high cells can be separated into KIThigh cells in which transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) downmodulates c-kit and KITlow cells in which anti-TGF-beta upmodulates c-kit

We have previously shown that early human CD34high hematopoietic progenitors are maintained quiescent in part through autocrine transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta 1). We also demonstrated that, in the presence of interleukin-3, interleukin-6, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, and erythropoietin, TGF-beta 1 antisense oligonucleotides or anti-TGF-beta serum have an additive effect with KIT ligand (Steel factor [SF]), which suggests that they control different pathways of regulation in these conditions. This finding also suggests that autocrine TGF-beta 1 might suppress c-kit expression in primitive human hematopoietic progenitors. We have now distinguished two subpopulations of CD34high cells. One subpopulation expresses a c- kit mRNA that can be downmodulated by exogenous TGF-beta 1 within 6 hours. Another subpopulation of early CD34high cells expresses a low or undetectable level of c-kit mRNA, but its expression can be upmodulated within 6 hours by anti-TGF-beta. These effects disappear 48 hours after induction and cannot be maintained longer than 72 hours, even if TGF- beta 1 or anti-TGF-beta serum are added every day. Similar kinetics, although delayed, are observed with KIT protein expression. On the contrary, no specific effect of TGF-beta 1 was observed on c-fms, GAPDH, and transferrin receptor gene expression in these early progenitors. These results clarify the complex interaction between TGF- beta 1 and SF in normal early hematopoietic progenitors. SF does not switch off the TGF-beta 1 inhibitory pathway. Autocrine TGF-beta 1 appears to maintain these cells in a quiescent state, suppressing cell division by downmodulating the receptor of SF, a key cytokine costimulator of early progenitors.
