The mechanisms by which transforming growth factor (TGF- )
exerts a negative effect on cell-cycle entry in primary human hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells were examined at the molecular and
cellular levels. After treatment of primary human CD34+
progenitors with TGF- there was a decrease in the levels of cyclin
D2 protein and an increase in levels of the cyclin-dependent kinase
inhibitor (CDKI) p15 as compared to the levels in untreated cells. The
converse was true after addition of neutralizing anti-TGF- antibody. Administration of TGF- to CD34+ cells in the
presence of cytokines prevented retinoblastoma protein (pRb)
phosphorylation, which occurred in the same cells treated with
cytokines alone or cytokines and anti-TGF- antibody. Neutralization of TGF- during 24 to 48 hours of culture with cytokines
significantly increased the number of colony-forming progenitors, but
did not modulate the human stem cell pool, as measured in 6- to
12-month xenotransplantation assays. Equivalent numbers of human B, T, and myeloid cells were obtained after transplantation of cells treated
with or without neutralization of TGF- .
