C/EBP&b.alpha; Bypasses Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor Signals to Rapidly Induce PU.1 Gene Expression, Stimulate Granulocytic Differentiation, and Limit Proliferation in 32D cl3 Myeloblasts

Xinping Wang, Edward Scott, Charles L. Sawyers, and Alan D. Friedman

From the Johns Hopkins Oncology Center, Division of Pediatric Oncology, Baltimore, MD; the Institute for Human Gene Therapy, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA; and the Molecular Biology Institute and Department of Medicine, University of California, Los Angeles, CA.

Within hematopoiesis, C/EBPalpha is expressed only in myeloid cells, and PU.1 is expressed mainly in myeloid and B-lymphoid cells. C/EBPalpha -deficient mice lack the neutrophil lineage and retain monocytes, whereas PU.1-deficient mice lack monocytes and have severely reduced neutrophils. We expressed a C/EBPalpha -estrogen receptor ligand-binding domain fusion protein, C/EBPalpha WT-ER, in 32D cl3 myeloblasts. 32D cl3 cells proliferate in interleukin-3 (IL-3) and differentiate to neutrophils in granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF). In the presence of estradiol, C/EBPalpha WT-ER induced morphologic differentiation and the expression of the myeloperoxidase, lactoferrin, and G-CSF receptor mRNAs. C/EBPalpha WT-ER also induced a G1/S cell cycle block, with induction of p27 and Rb hypophosphorylation. bcr-ablp210 prevented 32D cl3 cell differentiation. Activation of C/EBPalpha -ER in 32D-bcr-ablp210 or Ba/F3 B-lymphoid cells induced cell cycle arrest independent of terminal differentiation. C/EBPalpha WT-ER induced endogenous PU.1 mRNA within 8 hours in both 32D cl3 and Ba/F3 cells, even in the presence of cycloheximide, indicating that C/EBPalpha directly activates the PU.1 gene. However, activation of a PU.1-ER fusion protein in 32D cl3 cells induced myeloperoxidase (MPO) RNA but not terminal differentiation. Thus, C/EBPalpha acts downstream of G-CSF and upstream of PU.1, p27, and potentially other factors to induce myeloblasts to undergo granulocytic differentiation and cell cycle arrest.
