Evidence has been provided recently that shows that high
concentrations of cytokines can fulfill functions previously attributed to stromal cells, such as promote the survival of, and led to a net
increase in human primitive progenitors initiating long-term cultures
in vitro (LTC-IC) or engrafting NOD-SCID (nonobese diabetic severe-combined immunodeficient) recipients in vivo. These data prompted us to re-evaluate whether stromal cells will further alter the
properties of primitive progenitor cells exposed to cytokines. Single
CD34+CD38low and CD38neg cells
were incubated 10 days in serum-containing or serum-free medium in the
presence or in the absence of murine marrow-derived stromal cells
(MS-5). Recombinant human cytokines stem cell factor (SCF),
pegylated-megakaryocyte growth and differentiation factor (PEG-MGDF),
FLT3-L, Interleukin (IL)-3, IL-6, and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) were systematically added at various concentrations (10 to 300 ng/mL). Cell proliferation and LTC-IC
potential were evaluated in each clone after 10 days. A striking and
consistent observation was the retention of a high LTC-IC potential in
clones exposed to cytokines in the presence of stromal feeders, whereas
clones exposed to cytokines alone in the absence of stromal feeders
rapidly lost their LTC-IC potential as they proliferated. This was
reflected both by the higher proportion of wells containing LTC-IC and
by the high numbers of CFC produced after 5 weeks in clones grown with
MS-5 during the first 10 days. We further showed by analyzing multiple
replicates of a single clone at day 10 that MS-5 cells promoted a net
increase in the LTC-IC compartment through self-renewal divisions.
Interestingly, these primitive LTC-IC were equally distributed among
small and large clones, as counted at day 10, indicating that active
proliferation and loss of LTC-IC potential could be dissociated. These
observations show that, in primitive cells, stromal cells counteract
differentiation events triggered by cytokines and promoted self-renewal
divisions. Furthermore, the almost identical distribution of the size
of the clones with or without MS-5 suggests that proliferation and function of human primitive cells may be independently regulated by
external signals, and that the former is primarily under the control of cytokines.
