Suppression of chronic myelogenous leukemia colony growth by interleukin-1 (IL-1) receptor antagonist and soluble IL-1 receptors: a novel application for inhibitors of IL-1 activity

Suppression of chronic myelogenous leukemia colony growth by interleukin-1 (IL-1) receptor antagonist and soluble IL-1 receptors: a novel application for inhibitors of IL-1 activity.

In this study, we investigated the role of interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta) in the malignant evolution of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) and the functional activity of IL-1 inhibitors. Bone marrow (BM) and peripheral blood (PB) low-density cells from 38 CML patients were studied in the colony-forming unit-granulocyte, erythrocyte, monocyte, megakaryocyte colony culture assay. Samples from pat...

Suppression of Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia Colony Growth by Interleukin-1 (IL-1) Receptor Antagonist and Soluble IL-1 Receptors: A Novel Application for Inhibitors

In this study, we investigated the role of interleukin-lp (IL-1s) in the malignant evolution of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) and the functional activity of IL-1 inhibitors. Bone marrow (BM) and peripheral blood (PB) low-density cells from 38 CML patients were studied in the colonyforming unit-granulocyte, erythrocyte, monocyte, megakaryocyte colony culture assay. Samples from patients wit...

Inhibition of acute myelogenous leukemia blast proliferation by interleukin-1 (IL-1) receptor antagonist and soluble IL-1 receptors.

Interleukin-1 (IL-1) has recently been reported to play an important role in acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) blast proliferation. We therefore investigated the effect of soluble IL-1 receptors (sIL-1R) and IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RA) on the growth of AML bone marrow blast progenitors from 25 patients. In the AML blast colony culture assay, sIL-1R and IL-1RA inhibited blast colony-forming...

Suppression of juvenile chronic myelogenous leukemia colony growth by interleukin-1 receptor antagonist.

Bone marrow (BM) and peripheral blood (PB) cells from patients with juvenile chronic myelogenous leukemia (JCML) exhibit spontaneous in vitro proliferation. Several cytokines including granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta), and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha) have been implicated in supporting the growth of leukemic monocyte-macrophage...
