Interleukin-10 inhibits spontaneous colony-forming unit-granulocyte- macrophage growth from human peripheral blood mononuclear cells by suppression of endogenous granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor release

Spontaneous growth of myeloid colonies (colony-forming unit-granulocyte- macrophage [CFU-GM]) can be observed in methylcellulose cultures containing peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PB-MNCs) and is supposedly caused by the release of colony-stimulating factors (CSF) by accessory cells. Because of its cytokine synthesis-inhibiting effects on T lymphocytes and monocytes, interleukin-10 (IL-10) may be a potential candidate for indirect modulation of hematopoiesis. We studied the effect of recombinant human IL-10 (rhIL-10) on spontaneous growth of myeloid colonies derived from human PB-MNCs. A total of 10 ng/mL of IL-10 almost completely inhibited spontaneous CFU-GM proliferation (by 95.1%; P < .001, n = 7) in unseparated PB-MNCs. This effect was dose-dependent and specific, because a neutralizing anti-IL- 10 antibody was able to prevent IL-10-induced suppression of CFU-GM growth. Spontaneous CFU-GM growth, which required the presence of both monocytes (CD14+ cells) and T lymphocytes (CD3+ cells), was also greatly suppressed by a neutralizing anti-granulocyte-macrophage CSF (GM-CSF) antibody but was only slightly or not at all inhibited by antibodies against G-CSF or IL-3. Moreover, IL-10-suppressed colony growth could be completely restored by the addition of exogenous GM- CSF. Using semiquantitative polymerase chain reaction, we were able to show that GM-CSF transcripts that spontaneously increased in PB-MNCs within 48 hours of culture were markedly reduced by the addition of IL- 10. Inhibiton of GM-CSF production in PB-MNCs by IL-10 was also confirmed at the protein level by measuring GM-CSF levels in suspension cultures. Our findings suggest that autonomous CFU-GM growth, resulting from an interaction of monocytes and T lymphocytes, is mainly caused by endogenous GM-CSF release and can be profoundly suppressed by the addition of exogenous IL-10. Considering the strong inhibitory action of IL-10 on GM-CSF production and spontaneous cell growth in vitro, this cytokine may be useful in myeloid malignancies in which autocrine and/or paracrine mechanisms involving GM-CSF are likely to play a pathogenetic role.
