The CCAAT enhancer binding protein (C/EBP ) transcription
factor plays a critical role in granulocytopoiesis. Mice with a
disruption of the C/EBP gene demonstrate an early block in granulocytic differentiation, and disruption of C/EBP function is a
common theme in many types of human acute myelogenous leukemia, which
is characterized by a block in myeloid development. To characterize further the nature of this block, we derived cell lines from the fetal
liver of C/EBP -deficient animals. These lines resembled morphologically the immature myeloid blasts observed in
C/EBP / fetal livers and did not express messenger
RNA encoding early myeloid genes such as myeloperoxidase. Similarly,
granulocytic markers such as Mac-1 and Gr-1 were not expressed; nor
were erythroid and lymphoid surface antigens. Introduction of an
inducible C/EBP gene into the line revealed that conditional
expression of C/EBP induced the C/EBP family members C/EBP and
C/EBP and subsequent granulocyte differentiation. Similar results
were obtained when C/EBP / cells were stimulated with
the cytokines interleukin-3 and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, but not with all-trans retinoic
acid, supporting a model of at least 2 pathways leading to the
differentiation of myeloid progenitors to granulocytes and implicating
induction of other C/EBP family members in granulopoiesis.
