Abstract The adhesion of hematopoietic progenitor cells to bone marrow stromal cells is critical to hematopoiesis and involves multiple effector molecules. Stromal cell molecules that participate in this interaction were sought by analyzing the detergent-soluble membrane proteins of GBI/6 stromal cells that could be adsorbed by intact FDCP-1 progenitor cells. A single-chain protein from GBI/6 cells having an apparent molecular weight of 37 Kd was selectively adsorbed by FDCP-1 cells. This protein, designated p37, could be surface-radiolabeled and thus appeared to be exposed on the cell membrane. An apparently identical 37- Kd protein was expressed by three stromal cell lines, by Swiss 3T3 fibroblastic cells, and by FDCP-1 and FDCP-2 progenitor cells. p37 was selectively adsorbed from membrane lysates by a variety of murine hematopoietic cells, including erythrocytes, but not by human erythrocytes. Binding of p37 to cells was calcium-dependent, and was not affected by inhibitors of the hematopoietic homing receptor or the cell-binding or heparin-binding functions of fibronectin. It is proposed that p37 may be a novel adhesive molecule expressed on the surface of a variety of hematopoietic cells that could participate in both homotypic and heterotypic interactions of stromal and progenitor cells.

Adhesive Interactions

Laminins are a family of disulfide-linked heterotrimeric proteins consisting of 3 different subunits termed α, β, and γ chains. Combinations of 11 characterized laminin subunits (α1-α5, β1-β3, and γ1-γ3) generate at least 12 laminin isoforms, which can serve different functions. Although expression of laminin in the hematopoietic microenvironment has been known for many years, the nature of the laminin isoforms present in the human bone marrow is poorly characterized. The present study attempts to clarify this issue. Reverse transcriptase–polymerase chain reaction analysis of human bone marrow stromal cells suggested the expression of many laminin isoforms in the marrow. Northern blot and immunoblot analysis, however, showed that laminin-8/9 and laminin-10/11 are the most abundant laminin isoforms synthesized by human bone marrow stromal cells. Other isoforms, if present, certainly play a minor role in the hematopoietic microenvironment. Functionally, laminin-10/11 preparations showed strong adhesive interactions with human CD34+ cell lines. Antibodies against the β1 integrin subunit inhibited these interactions. Other laminin isoforms, especially laminin-1 and laminin-2/4, showed only weak or no adhesive interactions with the hematopoietic cell lines tested, explaining former negative results. In addition to its adhesion-mediating properties, laminin-10/11 preparations also showed a mitogenic activity for human hematopoietic progenitor cells. Taken together, these data suggest that laminin in the bone marrow plays a hitherto unexpected important function in the development of hematopoietic progenitor cells.

AbstractThe chemokine stromal cell–derived factor-1 (SDF-1) is constitutively expressed by bone marrow stromal cells and plays key roles in hematopoiesis. Fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2), a member of the FGF family that plays important roles in developmental morphogenic processes, is abnormally elevated in the bone marrow from patients with clonal myeloid disorders and other disorders where normal hematopoiesis is impaired. Here, we report that FGF2 reduces SDF-1 secretion and protein content in bone marrow stromal cells. By inhibiting SDF-1 production, FGF2 compromises stromal cell support of hematopoietic progenitor cells. Reverse-transcriptase–polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis revealed that bone marrow stromal cells express 5 FGF receptors (FGFRs) among the 7 known FGFR subtypes. Blocking experiments identified FGFR1 IIIc as the receptor mediating FGF2 inhibition of SDF-1 expression in bone marrow stromal cells. Analysis of the mechanisms underlying FGF2 inhibition of SDF-1 production in bone marrow stromal cells revealed that FGF2 reduces the SDF-1 mRNA content by posttranscriptionally accelerating SDF-1 mRNA decay. Thus, we identify FGF2 as an inhibitor of SDF-1 production in bone marrow stromal cells and a regulator of stromal cell supportive functions for hematopoietic progenitor cells.

Limiting Dilution

In the absence of conclusive assays capable of determining the functionality of ex vivo expanded human hematopoietic progenitor cells, we combined cell tracking with the membrane dye PKH2, immunostaining for CD34, and limiting dilution analysis to estimate the frequency of long-term hematopoietic culture-initiating cells (LTHC-ICs) among de novo-generated CD34+ cells. Umbilical cord blood (CB) and bone marrow (BM) CD34+ cells were stained with PKH2 on day 0 and cultured with stem cell factor (SCF) and interleukin-3 (IL-3) in short-term stromal cell-free suspension cultures. Proliferation of CD34+ cells in culture was tracked through their PKH2 fluorescence relative to day 0 and the continued expression of CD34. As such, it was possible to identify cells that had divided while maintaining the expression of CD34 (CD34+PKH2dim) and others that expressed CD34 but had not divided (CD34+PKH2bright). In all such cultures, a fraction of both BM and CB CD34+ cells failed to divide in response to cytokines and persisted in culture for up to 10 days as CD34+PKH2bright cells. Between days 5 and 7 of culture, CD34+PKH2bright and CD34+PKH2dim cells were sorted in a limiting dilution scheme into 96-well plates prepared with medium, SCF, IL-3, IL-6, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, and erythropoietin. Cells proliferating in individual wells were assayed 2 weeks later for their content of clonogenic progenitors and the percentage of negative wells was used to calculate the frequency of LTHC-ICs in each population. Among fresh isolated BM and CB CD34+ cells, the frequencies of LTHC-ICs were 2.01% +/- 0.98% (mean +/- SEM) and 7.56% +/- 2.48%, respectively. After 5 to 7 days in culture, 3.00% +/- 0.56% of ex vivo-expanded BM CD34+PKH2bright cells and 4.46% +/- 1.10% of CD34+PKH2dim cells were LTHC-ICs. In contrast, the frequency of LTHC-IC in ex vivo expanded CB CD34+ cells declined drastically, such that only 3.87% +/- 2.06% of PKH2bright and 2.29% +/- 1.75% of PKH2dim cells were determined to be initiating cells after 5 to 7 days in culture. However, when combined with a calculation of the net change in the number of CD34+ cells in culture, the sum total of LTHC-ICs in both BM and CB cells declined in comparison to fresh isolated cells, albeit to a different degree between the two tissues.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
