The proliferative effects of colony-stimulating factor 1 (CSF-1) on macrophages are exerted only throughout the G1 phase of the cell cycle. Genetic targets of the delayed early response to CSF-1 include novel G1 cyclin (CYL or cyclin D) genes. In macrophages, cyclin D1 is induced early in G1 and is expressed throughout the cell cycle as long as CSF-1 is present. The cyclin D1 protein turns over rapidly in CSF-1-stimulated cells and its level declines precipitously upon CSF-1 withdrawal. Cyclin D2 is induced later in G1 and its expression is periodic, whereas cyclin D3 is not expressed in macrophages but is regulated by growth factors in other cell types. The cyclin D1 protein associates during G1 with a polypeptide antigenically related to p34cdc2 and binds in vitro to a histone H1 kinase present in lysates of CSF-1-starved macrophages. The instability of the cyclin D1 protein and its ability to rescue a cyclin-dependent kinase activity from growth factor-deprived macrophages together suggest that the cyclin D protein is the dynamic partner in the complex. The timing of expression of cyclin D genes suggests that they act to link growth factor signals with cell cycle transitions during G1.

Transformation by activated pp60c-src has been correlated by genetic analysis with the tyrosine phosphorylation of a 120 kilodalton (kDa) protein, p120. We now demonstrate tyrosine phosphorylation of p120 following stimulation of cells by growth factors whose receptors have intrinsic tyrosine-specific protein kinase activity. Stimulation of quiescent NIH3T3 cells with platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) resulted in the tyrosine phosphorylation of p120 that was maximal by 5 min and returned to background levels by 30 min. p120 was also phosphorylated on tyrosine after addition of colony-stimulating factor 1 (CSF-1) or epidermal growth factor (EGF) to NIH3T3 cells engineered to express high levels of their respective receptors. Two additional src substrates, p110 and p85, were analysed under identical assay conditions. PDGF, CSF-1, and EGF induced only a minimal increase in the tyrosine phosphorylation of p85 and no change in the phosphorylation of p110. Thus, the marked ligand-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of p120 was a property not shared by the other src substrates examined. Immunoblotting with antibodies to p120 and the ras GTPase activating protein, GAP, suggests that p120 and GAP are unrelated. In addition, the amino acid sequences of four cyanogen bromide peptides derived from p120 showed no homology to GAP or to sequences in either the PIR or Swiss-Prot databases. These data suggest that tyrosine phosphorylation of p120 may contribute to both signal transduction through growth factor receptors and pp60src induced transformation.

The proto-oncogene c-raf-1 encodes a 74 kD serine/threonine kinase. Recently, it has been shown that Raf kinase activity is stimulated by platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) treatment of receptor bearing cells, and that p74 is a direct substrate for PDGF receptor. CSF-1 treatment of BeWo cells, a human choriocarcinoma cell line, and mouse NIH 3T3 cells expressing a transfected human CSF-1 receptor cDNA, was associated with a 3-4 fold increase in phosphorylation of a 74 kD protein immunoprecipitated with affinity purified Raf-1 antibody. The kinase activity of p74 was increased 2-3 fold against two exogenous substrates following CSF-1 treatment of the transfected cells. These observations suggest that Raf-1 protein is a downstream second messenger molecule in CSF-1 mediated signal transduction.

Colony-stimulating factors (CSFs) are pivotal for proliferation and function of hematopoietic cells. We found that lymphotoxin, a product of activated lymphocytes, stimulates accumulation of granulocyte-macrophage (GM)-CSF and macrophage (M)-CSF proteins and mRNAs in fibroblasts. An increase in GM- and M-CSF mRNA levels occurred within 2 hours after addition of 1,000 U/mL lymphotoxin and levels plateaued over the next 24 hours. Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha) was about five times more potent than lymphotoxin at low concentrations, and was nearly 1.5 to to 2 times more potent at maximally stimulating concentrations of the cytokines. Stimulation by lymphotoxin did not require either new protein synthesis or protein kinase-C stimulation. Stability studies of GM- and M-CSF transcripts in fibroblasts showed that M-CSF mRNA was five times more stable (half-life [t 1/2], 100 minutes) than GM-CSF mRNA (t 1/2, 20 minutes). Stability of these mRNAs was unchanged after stimulation of the cells with lymphotoxin. In addition, exposure of cells to 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate did not alter stability of M-CSF mRNA but markedly prolonged the stability of GM-CSF mRNA. This is consistent with data showing that the AT-rich consensus region in the 3' untranslated region of many transiently expressed cytokines including GM-CSF but not M-CSF, play a major role in their mRNA stability. Our results suggest that activated lymphocytes can affect hematopoietic cell function and growth by stimulating production of CSFs by mesenchymal cells.

The c-fms proto-oncogene product is a transmembrane glycoprotein that is probably identical to the cell surface receptor for the mononuclear phagocyte colony stimulating factor, CSF-1. An analogous glycoprotein encoded by the viral oncogene v-fms includes the extracellular ligand-binding domain, membrane spanning segment, and cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase domain of the CSF-1 receptor. The v-fms and c-fms gene products differ significantly at their distal carboxylterminal ends where the truncated viral transforming protein has lost a single tyrosine residue (tyr969) that may negatively regulate the receptor kinase activity. Introduction of v-fms into a CSF-1 dependent murine macrophage cell line induced factor independence and tumorigenicity by a nonautocrine mechanism. Thus, although the v-fms gene product can bind CSF-1, its constitutive tyrosine-specific protein kinase provides growth stimulatory signals in the absence of ligand. Transfection of human c-fms cDNA into mouse NIH-3T3 cells conferred a CSF-1 responsive phenotype. Although neither the wild-type c-fms (tyr969) gene nor a mutant c-fms (phe969) allele induced transformation of NIH-3T3 cells, cotransfection with human CSF-1 cDNA gave rise to transformed foci. In cells cotransfected with the CSF-1 gene, the efficiency of focus formation induced by the mutant c-fms (phe969) gene was greater than that of the wild-type gene and equivalent to that of v-fms alone. A chimeric v-fms/c-fms molecule in which the carboxylterminus of the v-fms gene product was replaced by the corresponding region of the wild type c-fms (tyr969) was weakly transforming, whereas chimeric molecules containing phe969 transformed NIH-3T3 cells efficiently. Thus, complete oncogenic activation of the c-fms gene appears to require two events: one which alters a putative negative regulatory site of tyrosine phosphorylation, and a second which phenocopies a ligand-induced conformational change.

The macrophage colony-stimulating factor, CSF-1 (M-CSF), is a homodimeric glycoprotein required for the lineage-specific growth of cells of the mononuclear phagocyte series. Apart from its role in stimulating the proliferation of bone marrow-derived precursors of monocytes and macrophages, CSF-1 acts as a survival factor and primes mature macrophages to carry out differentiated functions. Each of the actions of CSF-1 are mediated through its binding to a single class of high-affinity receptors expressed on monocytes, macrophages, and their committed progenitors. The CSF-1 receptor (CSF-1R) is encoded by the c-fms proto-oncogene, and is one of a family of growth factor receptors that exhibits an intrinsic tyrosine-specific protein kinase activity. Transduction of c-fms sequences as a viral oncogene (v-fms) in the McDonough (SM) and HZ-5 strains of feline sarcoma virus has resulted in alterations in receptor coding sequences that affect its activity as a tyrosine kinase and provide persistent signals for cell growth in the absence of its ligand. The genetic alterations in the c-fms gene that unmask its latent transforming potential abrogate its lineage-specific activity and enable v-fms to transform a variety of cells that do not normally express CSF-1 receptors.

The effects of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) ribosylation inhibitors on hematopoietic growth factor-induced proliferation were examined. Significant inhibition of interleukin-3 (IL-3), colony-stimulating factor 1, and lung conditioned media-induced clonal agar growth of normal murine hematopoietic cells by 10 mmol/L nicotinamide (NAM), 10 mmol/L 3-aminobenzamide (3AB), and 5 mmol/L N1-methylnicotinamide (1MN) was noted. Nicotinic acid, a related compound that does not inhibit ADP ribosylation, failed to inhibit the growth factor-mediated proliferation. NAM (10 mmol/L), 3AB (10 mmol/L), and 1MN (5 mmol/L) also prevented IL-3 and phorbol ester-stimulated 3H-thymidine incorporation into the IL-3-responsive FDC-P1 cell line. Exposure of FDC-P1 cells to 10 mmol/L NAM led to a significant decrease in nuclear poly-(ADP-ribose) levels. Exposure of FDC-P1 cells to 5 mmol/L 1MN did not affect the interaction of the phorbol ester receptor, protein kinase-C (PK-C), with the cell membrane as determined by assay of phorbol ester binding in cytosol and membrane preparations. Nor did it affect the catalytic activity of PK-C as determined by assaying the in vitro phosphorylation of histone H1 by cytosolic kinase preparations from FDC-P1 as well as EL4 thymoma cells. 1MN markedly enhanced the inhibitory effects of phorbol esters on DNA synthesis of EL4 cells even at concentrations (1.25 mmol/L) that had no effects on DNA synthesis in the absence of phorbol esters. Our findings demonstrate that (a) active ADP ribosylation inhibitors interfere with growth factor-induced proliferation of murine hematopoietic cells and (b) the inhibition occurs at a step that follows the activation and translocation of PK-C and is more closely linked to DNA synthesis.

Alterations in genes that function in normal growth and development have been linked to malignant cell transformation. The mononuclear phagocyte colony-stimulating factor (CSF-1 or M-CSF) is a polypeptide growth factor synthesized by mesenchymal cells, which stimulates the survival, proliferation, and differentiation of haematopoietic cells of the monocyte-macrophage series. Multiple forms of soluble CSF-1 are produced by proteolytic cleavage of membrane-bound precursors, some of which are stably expressed at the cell surface. The c-fms proto-oncogene encodes the CSF-1 receptor, which is composed of an extracellular ligand-binding domain linked by a single membrane-spanning segment to a cytoplasmic tyrosine-specific protein kinase domain. Whereas the tyrosine kinase activity of the normal receptor is stimulated by CSF-1, mutations in the c-fms gene can constitutively activate the kinase to provide growth-stimulatory signals in the absence of the ligand. Oncogenic activation of the c-fms gene product appears to involve removal of a negative regulatory tyrosine residue near the carboxyl terminus of the receptor and one or more additional mutations that may simulate a conformational change induced by CSF-1 binding. Expression of the human c-fms gene in mouse NIH-3T3 cells confers a CSF-1 stimulated growth phenotype, indicating that receptor transduction is sufficient for fibroblasts to respond to a haematopoietic growth factor. In contrast, the v-fms oncogene induces factor-independent growth and tumorigenicity in factor-dependent myeloid cell lines, and contributes to the development of proliferative disorders of multiple haematopoietic lineages when introduced into murine bone marrow progenitors. Aberrant expression of an endogenous c-fms gene secondary to proviral insertion and transcriptional activation has also been implicated in virus-induced myeloblastic leukaemia in mice. The c-fms and CSF-1 genes have been mapped on the long arm of human chromosome 5, a region that frequently undergoes interstitial deletions in certain haematopoietic disorders including acute myelogenous leukaemia. The study of CSF-1 and its receptor should provide information concerning the role of tyrosine kinases in regulating the normal growth and differentiation of haematopoietic cells and in contributing to their malignant transformation.

The c-fms gene product is related, and possibly identical, to the receptor for the mononuclear phagocyte colony stimulating factor, CSF-1. Using antisera to a recombinant v-fms--coded polypeptide, glycoproteins encoded by the human c-fms locus were detected in mononuclear cells from normal peripheral blood and in promyelocytic HL-60 cells 24 h after induction of monocytic differentiation with phorbol ester. The 150-kD human c-fms--coded glycoprotein was expressed at the cell surface, was active as a tyrosine-specific protein kinase in vitro, and shared primary structural features with the product of the feline retroviral v-fms oncogene. A biochemically indistinguishable glycoprotein was detected in human choriocarcinoma cell lines. Like peripheral blood mononuclear cells and phorbol ester-treated HL-60 cells, the choriocarcinoma cells expressed high affinity binding sites for human CSF-1. In addition to serving as a lineage specific growth factor in hematopoiesis, CSF-1 may play a role in normal trophoblast development.

The primary structure of the receptor for platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), determined by means of cloning a cDNA that encodes the murine pre-PDGF receptor, is closely related to that of the v-kit oncogene product and the receptor for macrophage colony stimulating factor (CSF-1). Common structural features include the presence of long sequences that interrupt the tyrosine-specific protein kinase domains of each molecule. The PDGF and CSF-1 receptors also share a characteristic distribution of extracellular cysteine residues. Ubiquitin is covalently bound to the purified PDGF receptor, the human gene for which is on chromosome 5.
