Role of interleukin-2 (IL-2), IL-7, and IL-15 in natural killer cell differentiation from cord blood hematopoietic progenitor cells and from gamma c transduced severe combined immunodeficiency X1 bone marrow cells

Natural killer (NK) cells are characterized by their ability to mediate spontaneous cytotoxicity against susceptible tumor cells and infected cells. They differentiate from hematopoietic progenitor cells. Patients with X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID X1) carry mutations in the gamma c cytokine receptor gene that result in lack of both T and NK cells. To assess the role of interleukin-2 (IL-2), IL-7, and IL-15 cytokines, which share gamma c receptor subunit, in NK cell differentiation, we have studied NK cell differentiation from cord blood CD34 (+) cells in the presence of either stem cell factor (SCF), IL-2, and IL-7 or SCF and IL-15. The former cytokine combination efficiently induced CD34 (+) CD7 (+) cord blood cells to proliferate and mature into NK cells, while the latter was also able to induce NK cell differentiation from more immature CD34 (+) CD7 (-) cord blood cells. NK cells expressed CD56 and efficiently killed K562 target cells. These results show that IL-15 could play an important role in the maturation of NK cell from cord blood progenitors. Following retroviral-mediated gene transfer of gamma c into SCID X1 bone marrow progenitors, it was possible to reproduce a similar pattern of NK cell differentiation in two SCID-X1 patients with SCF + IL-2 + IL-7 and more efficiently in one of them with SCF + IL-15. These results strongly suggest that the gamma c chain transduces major signal(s) involved in NK cell differentiation from hematopoietic progenitor cells and that IL- 15 interaction with gamma c is involved in this process at an earlier step than IL-2/IL-7 interactions of gamma c are. It also shows that gene transfer into hematopoietic progenitor cells could potentially restore NK cell differentiation in SCID X1 patients.
