Expression of decay-accelerating factor (DAF or CD55) and of CD59 during hematopoietic cell development in normal bone marrow and on peripheral blood leukocytes were characterized by three-color immunofluorescence experiments. With this technique cell subsets were identified by forward light scatter, orthogonal light scatter, and two cell-surface antigens. For each cell lineage, specific combinations of two monoclonal antibodies labeled with different fluorochromes were used. DAF or CD59 were then quantitated on the defined cell subsets from the fluorescence signal of the respective antibody conjugated with a third fluorochrome. Early uncommitted hematopoietic progenitor cells (CD34+, CD38-) all expressed both proteins homogeneously. Initial commitment to the erythroid (CD71+, CD45dim), myeloid (CD33+), or B lymphocyte (CD10+) lineages was not associated with changes in DAF or CD59 levels. With erythroid development, i.e., after loss of CD45 and decrease of CD71, expression of both proteins decreased. With myeloid maturation, expression of CD59 remained constant and expression of DAF varied. During neutrophil maturation, DAF decreased initially and then reemerged on maturing neutrophils concurrently with the appearance of CD16 (Fc gamma RIII), whereas during monocyte maturation, DAF increased concurrently with up-regulation of CD14. With B cell development, expression of DAF increased concurrently with down-regulation of CD10 and up-regulation of CD20, whereas expression of CD59 diminished slightly late in B cell maturation. Analysis of peripheral blood elements showed that monocytes, neutrophils, and B lymphocytes expressed both proteins homogeneously, but that in contrast to other cell subsets, which all expressed CD59, only a subset of (CD3+) T lymphocytes and (CD16+) Natural killer cells expressed DAF. The absence of DAF was not related to CD4 or CD8 expression or to the presence of activation markers (CD25+, CD38+), memory cell markers (CD58+, CD45RO+), or virgin T cell markers (CD45RA+), but was correlated with expression of CD11b (CR3) and CD11c (gp150/95). Although CD21+ (CR2) and CD35+ (CR1) cells all expressed DAF, CD11a (LFA-1) levels correlated inversely with those of DAF. Although the presence of CD55 and CD59 on early progenitor cells and throughout hematopoietic cell development is consistent with the requirements for both proteins in protection of host cells from complement-mediated injury, the physiological relevance of the unique patterns of variation for each cell lineage is unclear. Nevertheless, the availability of a detailed DAF and CD59 expression map in normal marrow will facilitate analyses of alterations during hematopoietic development that may occur in hematological disorders including paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH).

The multidrug-resistance gene, MDR1 is expressed in many normal tissues, but little is known about its expression in normal hematopoietic cells. Using the monoclonal antibody C219 and flow cytometric analysis, P-glycoprotein (P-gp) was found to be expressed in all peripheral blood (PB) subpopulations (CD4, CD8, CD14, CD19, CD56) except granulocytes. To specifically determine MDR1 gene expression, these PB subpopulations were isolated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) and analyzed for MDR1 mRNA by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). All subsets were positive by PCR, but only minimal MDR1 mRNA was detected in monocytes and granulocytes. Significant efflux of Rhodamine-123 (Rh-123), a measure of P-gp function, was detected in CD4+, CD8+, CD14+, CD19+, and CD56+ cells but not in granulocytes. Next, PCR-analysis was performed on FACS-sorted bone marrow (BM) cells to assess MDR1 expression in different maturational stages. Precursors (CD34+), early and late myeloid cells (CD33+/CD34+, CD33+/CD34-) as well as lymphocytes of the B-cell lineage (CD19+/CD10+, CD19+/CD10-) expressed the MDR1 gene. BM monocytic cells (CD33++/CD34-) were negative, and a very weak signal was detected in erythroid cells (glycophorin A+). Significant Rh-123 efflux was found in CD34+, CD10+, CD33+, and CD33++ BM cells, but not in glycophorin A+ cells. We conclude that PB and BM lymphocytes, PB monocytes, BM progenitors, and immature myeloid cells, but not late BM monocytes, erythroid cells, and PB granulocytes, express MDR1 mRNA and a functional P-gp. These results have to be taken into account when MDR1 expression is determined in tumor samples containing normal blood cells.

CD34+ cells devoid of detectable mature and immature T and B lymphocytes, expressing the CD2, CD10, and CD20 antigens, were isolated from marrows of three pairs of sex-mismatched, mixed lymphocyte culture (MLC) nonreactive, sibling baboons. Reciprocal transplants were performed between members of each pair, using the sex chromosomes, identified by standard cytogenetic techniques, as markers of the transplanted cells. Five animals from these three pairs were transplanted with 0.6 to 2.1 x 10(6)/kg of isolated cryopreserved and/or fresh isolated cells that were greater than 95% to 97% CD34+. Before transplantation, animals were treated with either single (920 or 1,020 cGy) or split (700 cGy x 2) dose total body irradiation. All animals engrafted with donor cells, as demonstrated by cytogenetic analysis of bone marrow metaphase cells 4 weeks after transplantation, with days to white blood cell count (WBC) greater than 500 being 19 +/- 2, to WBC greater than 1,000 23 +/- 2, to absolute neutrophil count greater than 500 24 +/- 3, and to platelets greater than 20,000 30 +/- 7. Three animals died of infectious-related complications at 34, 42, and 109 days after transplantation with evidence of host and donor cells (mixed chimerism) in marrow. Two animals remain alive and healthy more than 545 and 455 days after transplantation with stable mixed chimerism in marrow and blood. For these two animals, cytogenetic analysis of granulocyte/macrophage and erythroid colonies derived from marrow precursors between weeks 25 and 42 posttransplant showed evidence of mixed chimerism. Cytogenetic studies of CD2+ T cells and CD20+ B cells isolated from blood of these two animals between weeks 21 and 51 posttransplant showed the presence of mixed chimerism in both lymphocyte populations. Thus, isolated allogeneic CD34+ marrow cells devoid of detectable mature and immature T and B lymphocytes can engraft and reconstitute stable long-term myelopoiesis and lymphopoiesis in lethally irradiated baboons. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that CD34+ marrow cells contain pluripotent hematopoietic stem cells capable of fully reconstituting lymphohematopoiesis in the transplanted host.

Leukocyte membrane markers have been examined within cryostat sections and cell suspensions of human fetuses aged between 4 and 18 weeks of gestation using a panel of monoclonal antibodies. The HLA-DR molecule was present on a population of erythroid cells and macrophages in liver sinuses at 34 days and periarteriolar splenic macrophages at 60 days of gestation. CD5, CD15 and CD45 antigens were detected at 6 weeks of gestation, whereas CD4, CD8, CD10, CD11c, CD14 and IgM were not expressed at this stage. These findings and ultrastructural examination of embryonic liver confirm early differentiation of macrophages in the pre-lymphatic developmental period.

To provide baseline information on the immunoarchitecture of normal bone marrow, we studied cryostat-cut, frozen, and paraffin-embedded, fixed tissue sections prepared from 21 core biopsies of normal bone marrow obtained during bone marrow harvests for transplantation. A large panel of antibodies was applied that included, for frozen tissue, Leu-6 (CD1), T11 (CD2), Leu-3a (CD4), Leu-1 (CD5), Leu-2a (CD8), J5 (CD10), My7 (CD13), Leu-11 (CD16), B4 (CD19), B1 (CD20), B2 (CD21), Tac (CD25), My9 (CD33), T200 (CD45), NKH-1 (CD56), kappa and lambda chains, beta F1, Ki-67, HLA-DR, TQ1, and keratin, and for fixed tissue, leukocyte common antigen (CD45), L26 (CD20), LN1 (CDw75), LN2 (CD74), LN3, LN4, LN5, MB1 (CD45R), MB2, MT1 (CD43), MT2 (CD45R), UCHL1 (CD45R0), BM1, Ki-1 (CD30), Leu-M1 (CD15), lysozyme, KP1 (CD68), actin, S100, neuron-specific enolase, vimentin, and keratin. On fresh-frozen sections CD19 and CD2 were the most reliable and sensitive markers for B and T cells, staining 5% and 9% of marrow cells, respectively. Immunoglobulins generally showed heavy background staining, which frequently precluded an accurate assessment. The CD4 to CD8 ratio in the bone marrow was reversed from that of peripheral blood. On fixed tissues, leukocyte common antigen was found in 14% of the marrow cells, corresponding roughly to the lymphocyte population. L26, a pan-B-cell marker, stained 3% of the marrow cells. Among the other B-cell markers, LN1 and MB2 stained a large number of cells (40% to 70%), indicating reactivity with cells of the myeloid or erythroid series in addition to lymphocytes. Among the T-cell markers, UCHL1 and MT1 stained 66% and 50% of the cells, respectively, which could be explained by their cross-reactivity with myeloid cells. Nonspecific myelomonocytic markers (Leu-M1, KP1, and lysozyme) also showed reactivity in a high percentage of cells. No particular architectural distribution patterns of B or T lymphocytes were noted in either frozen or fixed bone marrow specimens. The results of this study provide normal baseline data for the immunohistologic application of hematopoietic and lymphoid markers on frozen or fixed bone marrow biopsy specimens.

Multiparameter flow cytometry was applied on normal human bone marrow (BM) cells to study the lineage commitment of progenitor cells ie, CD34+ cells. Lineage commitment of the CD34+ cells into the erythroid lineage was assessed by the coexpression of high levels of the CD71 antigen, the myeloid lineage by coexpression of the CD33 antigen and the B-lymphoid lineage by the CD10 antigen. Three color immunofluorescence experiments showed that all CD34+ BM cells that expressed the CD71, CD33, and CD10 antigens, concurrently stained brightly with anti-CD38 monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs). In addition, the CD38 antigen was brightly expressed on early T lymphocytes in human thymus, characterized by CD34, CD5, and CD7 expression. Only 1% of the CD34+ cells, 0.01% of nucleated cells in normal BM, did not express the CD38 antigen. The CD34+, CD38- cell population lacked differentiation markers and were homogeneous primitive blast cells by morphology. In contrast the CD34+, CD38 bright cell populations were heterogeneous in morphology and contained myeloblasts and erythroblasts, as well as lymphoblasts. These features are in agreement with properties expected from putative pluripotent hematopoietic stem cells; indeed, the CD34 antigen density decreased concurrently with increasing CD38 antigen density suggesting an upregulation of the CD38 antigen on differentiation of the CD34+ cells. Further evidence for a strong enrichment of early hematopoietic precursors in the CD34+, CD38- cell fraction was obtained from culture experiments in which CD34+ cell fractions with increasing density of the CD38 antigen were sorted singularly and assayed for blast colony formation. On day 14 of incubation, interleukin-3 (IL-3), IL-6, and GM-CSF, G-CSF, and erythropoietin (Epo) were added in each well. Twenty-five percent of the single sorted cells that expressed CD34 but lacked CD38 antigen gave rise to primitive colonies 28 to 34 days after cell sorting. The ability to form primitive colonies decreased rapidly with increasing density of the CD38 antigen. During 120 days of culture, up to five sequential generations of colonies were obtained after replating of the first-generation primitive colonies. This study provides direct evidence for the existence of a single class of progenitors with extensive proliferative capacity in human BM and provides an experimental approach for their purification, manipulation, and further characterization.

The c-kit proto-oncogene product is a member of the family of growth factor receptors with intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity. In the mouse c-kit maps to the W locus, which is known to be of central importance in hematopoiesis. Monoclonal antibody (MoAb) YB5.B8, which was raised against peripheral blood blast cells from a patient with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), was recently shown to bind to the extracellular domain of the c-kit product. This antibody does not bind detectably to normal peripheral blood cells and identifies a sub-group of AML patients with poor prognosis. We have used MoAb YB5.B8 to study the expression of c-kit by normal human bone marrow cells by immunofluorescence and flow cytometry, and to isolate multipotential and erythroid colony-forming cells. In a series of 11 normal adult bone marrow specimens, MoAb YB5.B8 bound to 4.0% +/- 1.8% of the cells in the low-density fraction. Dual-labeling experiments were performed with YB5.B8, and CD33, CD34, and CD10 MoAbs. Three populations of cells binding YB5.B8 could be identified based on their pattern of coexpression of the other markers; ie, YB5.B8+/CD34+/CD33-, YB5.B8+/CD34+/CD33+ and YB5.B8+/CD34+/CD33+. These populations had distinctive two-dimensional light scatter characteristics and are likely to correspond to precursor colony-forming cells, colony-forming cells, and maturing mast cells, respectively. No cells binding both YB5.B8 and an MoAb to the early lymphoid marker CD10 were found, implying that most early lymphoid cells do not express c-kit. MoAbs to the c-kit protein should prove valuable in multimarker studies of human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. Definition of a reference range of c-kit expression in normal human bone marrow will provide a sound basis for further studies of this marker in diagnosis and prognosis in AML.

Ubenimex (Bestatin) significantly enhanced the G- and GM-CSF-induced colony formation of human bone marrow cells at concentrations of 0.001, 0.01, 0.1 and 1.0 microgram/ml (21-61% enhancement), but not at 10 micrograms/ml. Ubenimex did not influence the EPO-induced erythroid colony and burst formation between 0.0001-100 micrograms/ml. Against human and mouse leukemic cell lines, the growth-inhibitory activities of ubenimex were dose-dependently observed. Aminopeptidase activities on U937 and TF-1 cells were almost inhibited with 10 and 100 micrograms/ml of ubenimex, respectively. Cross-linking studies of 125I-GM-CSF binding to TF-1 cells demonstrated that the 150-kDa band of 2 major bands was enhanced after incubation with 0.01 microgram/ml ubenimex but decreased after that with 100 micrograms/ml, and that the 95-kDa band was not changed at any concentration of ubenimex. Change in density of the 150-kDa band on ubenimex-treated TF-1 cells was correlated with that in expression of CD10 (neutral endopeptidase) on them, whereas that in expression of CD13 (aminopeptidase N) was not changed at any concentration. These results suggest that one possible mechanism of ubenimex action in hematopoietic progenitor cells is the up-regulation of the high affinity receptor for GM-CSF and that in leukemic cell lines is suppression of amino acid incorporation via peptidase regulation.

Multiple myeloma is considered a cancer of mature plasma cells. Recent studies, however, suggest the possible involvement of early B cells and the expression of myelomonocytic antigens by myeloma cells. Using flow cytometry, we searched for evidence of the expression of genes specific for different hematopoietic lineages by tumor cells in bone marrow aspirates from 27 patients with aneuploid multiple myeloma. In addition to features characteristic of myeloma cells, we found evidence of the frequent expression by myeloma tumor cells of the pre-B-cell antigen CALLA (common acute lymphocytic leukemia antigen) (in specimens from 58 percent of patients) and of megakaryocytic (88 percent), myelomonocytic (65 percent), and erythroid (39 percent) surface markers. The proportion of tumor cells expressing the different markers varied among patients, from 2 to 100 percent of recognizable tumor cells. We conclude that cells of multiple lineages are involved in myeloma--a finding that is consistent with the hypothesis that there is a common primary neoplastic lesion for all hematologic cancers.

A novel erythroid cell line, RM10, was established from a long-term bone marrow culture of a patient with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). RM10 cells were positive for periodic acid Schiff (PAS), but negative for peroxidase and dual esterase. RM10 cells had la, pre B (CD10), myeloid (CD13, CD14, CD33) and erythroid (glycophorin A) markers, but had no other lymphoid, megakaryocytic, or mesenchymal cell markers. RM10 cells spontaneously synthesized hemoglobin, which was markedly enhanced with hemin. Isoelectric focusing of the cell lysates and northern blot analysis of the total cellular RNA revealed hemoglobin synthesis in the cells. Using 125I-labeled recombinant human erythropoietin (Epo), two classes of Epo receptors were demonstrated in the RM10 cells. However, Epo did affect neither growth nor erythroid differentiation of the cells. RM10 cells rapidly differentiated to monocytic cells in the presence of 12-0-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, and simultaneously expressed glycoprotein IIb/IIIa. RM10 cells had Philadelphia chromosome (Ph), and expressed p210bcr-abl using immunoprecipitation with anti-c-abl and anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies. These results indicate that the RM10 cells have the characteristics of multipotential hemopoietic cells originating from Ph-positive CML and that high affinity Epo receptor class is not a sufficient condition for Epo responsiveness.
