Hematopoiesis in the grey collie dog: studies of the regulation of erythropoiesis.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hematopoiesis in the grey collie dog undergoes periodic fluctuations which involve reticulocytes, granulocytes, platelets, lymphocytes, and monocytes. This syndrome is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner and can be transmitted or abolished by appropriate bone marrow transplantation experiments, thus demonstrating this to be a primary marrow defect. Investigation of humoral regulation in this setting indicates that serum erythropoietin (ESF) also undergoes cyclic fluctuation and that shortly after the increase and peak in serum ESF levels recognizable red cell precursors appear in the marrow. Erythropoiesis in the grey collie is reciprocally related to the blood O2 carrying capacity. With phlebotomy, ESF activity and reticulocytes increase but continue to cycle, while hypertransfusion eliminates reticulocyte production completely. Neither phlebotomy nor hypertransfusion alter the underlying cycle time (11-12 days) nor influence the peaks of peripheral blood granulocytes. Thus, in these experiments, no direct evidence of competition between reticulocyte and granulocyte production is observed. In vitro studies of canine hemoglobin synthesis fail to demonstrate evidence of an inhibitor to ESF. These results indicate that periodic fluctuation of serum ESF is an integral part of the grey collie syndrome and are most consistent with some form of feedback regulation of ESF production.

Long-Term Treatment of Canine Cyclic Hematopoiesis With Recombinant Canine Stem Cell Factor
Grey collie dogs have cyclic fluctuations in their blood cell counts caused by a regulatory defect of hematopoietic stem cells. To examine the role of stem cell factor (SCF) or its receptor in this disorder, we investigated the stimulatory effects of recombinant canine SCF (rc-SCF) on in vitro marrow cultures, cloned and sequenced the grey collie SCF gene, and treated three grey collies with rc...

Two grey collie dogs had regular cyclic fluctuations in the number of all formed elements of the blood. The period lengths for all elements for an individual dog were the same, but the pattern of fluctuation for each element was distinctive. Normal dogs lacked periodic fluctuations.The patterns of day-to-day variation in the normal dogs counts were consistent with a first-order autoregressive p...

A decrease in responsiveness to granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) has been implicated in the pathophysiology of cyclic hematopoiesis. Using the canine model of cyclic neutropenia, we examined the response of neutrophil precursors to G-CSF in vitro and G-CSF receptor expression in neutrophils from grey collie dogs to determine whether the abnormal response observed to G-CSF in vivo i...

Treatment of cyclic hematopoiesis in the grey collie dog with lithium carbonate eliminated the recurrent neutropenia and normalized the other blood cell counts. These findings suggest that human cyclic hematopoiesis may be successfully treated with lithium. The effects of lithium on the monocytes, platelets, and reticulocytes, as well as the neutrophils, suggest that lithium operates on basic r...
