چکیده

The acute erythroleukemia induced in mice by the anemia-inducing strain of the Friend virus complex is caused to regress by normal macrophages. We examined the possibility that reversal of leukemia is related to a macrophage regulatory function in erythropoiesis. We found that the ability of macrophages to induce leukemia regression correlates with nonimmunological, in vivo suppression of normal and susceptible leukemic erythroid progenitors. The macrophage effect on erythropoiesis appears to be due to changes in a humoral regulator, related to but independent of erythropoietin. The results suggest a novel regulatory system for erythropoiesis, operative in vivo, and involving macrophages as accessory or suppressor cells. This regulation appears to be disrupted in erythroleukemic mice, but can be restored, and the disease can be made to regress by treatment with normal macrophages.

Macrophage Control of Normal and Leukemic Erythropoiesis: Identification of the Macrophage-Derived Erythroid Suppressing Activity as Interleukin-1 and the Mediator

Macrophages have been shown to directly influence the growth and development of mature erythroid progenitors (CFU-E) in normal and erythroleukemic mice. We examined the mechanism by which macrophages mediate their effect on in vivo erythropoiesis. As reported for whole macrophages, serum-free supernatants (SN) from normal resident peritoneal macrophages suppressed in vivo normal and conventiona...

Expression of the Interleukin-3 and Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor Genes in Friend Spleen Focus-Forming

Friend spleen focus-forming virus (F-SFFV) is a replicationdefective retrovirus that induces a multistage erythroleukemia in mice. In the first stage, expression of the SFFV envelope glycoprotein results in erythroid hyperplasia. Subsequently, the F-SFFV integrates near the Spi-1 gene and activates its expression, resulting in immortalized cells that represent a second stage in the disease proc...
