Definitions
- the invention concerns a protein or proteins contained in a supernatant, characterized in that the protein or proteins inhibit recruitment of haemopoietic progenitor or stem cells preferably of the myeloid lineages.
- the invention also concerns a process for the preparation of a protein or proteins contained in a supernatant, comprising stimulation of plastic adherent mononuclear cells from multiple myeloma patients with the aggressive form of the disease with colony stimulating factors, preferably with granulocyte - colony stimulating factor(G-CSF) or granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor(GM-CSF), and incubating these cells between 3 to 100 hours, preferably for 48 hours, and passing the supernatant obtained through a Sepharose-Blue affinity column at low salt concentrations followed by anion exchange chromatography in a manner known per se.
- colony stimulating factors preferably with granulocyte - colony stimulating factor(G-CSF) or granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor(GM-CSF)
- G-CSF granulocyte - colony stimulating factor
- GM-CSF granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor
- the invention relates to an assay for determining the activity of a protein or proteins inhibiting haemopoietic progenitor or stem cell recruitment, comprising incubating highly purified CD34+ cells with colony stimulating factors, preferably G-CSF or GM-CSF, whereby the resulting number of colonies is reduced as compared to controls not containing the inhibitory protein or proteins.
- colony stimulating factors preferably G-CSF or GM-CSF
- CFU-GM granulo-monocytic colonies
- GM-CSF or placental cell conditioned medium (PCM) in short term cultures of normal bone marrow is modulated by mature "accessory" cells, more specifically by monocytes (Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Autografts, Ed. Wunder E., Henon P., p.58- 66, Springer Verlag,1993).
- Compromised colony growth in MM-LO patients could therefore either be due to impairment in myeloid progenitor proliferation, or to impairment in accessory lymphoid or non lymphoid cells interfering with the CFU- GM recruitment.
- hematopoietic precursors and mature accessory cells from bone marrow of MM-LO patients were isolated by cell sorting, in order to test their contribution to CFU-GM formation separately. Moreover it was tested whether impairment is induced by soluble factors, or by direct cell- to cell interaction. Finally, a simplified assay was developed, which is applicable under clinical and laboratory routine conditions for identifying patients that carry this particular defect.
- the present invention relates to a protein or proteins contained in a supernatant, characterized in that the protein or proteins inhibit recruitment of haemopoietic progenitor or stem cells, preferably of the myeloid lineages.
- the invention also concerns a process for the preparation of a protein or proteins contained in a supernatant, comprising stimulation of plastic adherent mononuclear cells from multiple myeloma patients with the aggressive form of the disease with colony stimulating factors, preferably with granulocyte - colony stimulating factor(G-CSF) or granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor(GM-CSF), and incubating the cells between 3 to 100 hours, preferably for 48 hours.
- the supernatant is purified by passing it through a Sepharose-Blue affinity column(Cibacron-Blue, Pharmacia) at low salt concentration.
- the activity containing fraction is further purified by anion exchange chromatography. The behavior of the chromatography fractions shows that they contain an acidic protein or proteins and these fractions can be stored in frozen form without significant loss of activity.
- the invention relates to an assay for determining the activity of a protein or proteins inhibiting haemopoietic progenitor or stem cells recruitment, comprising incubating highly purified CD34+ cells with colony stimulating factors, preferably G-CSF or GM-CSF, whereby the resulting number of colonies is reduced as compared to controls.
- colony stimulating factors preferably G-CSF or GM-CSF
- the MNC fraction was washed twice in RPMI.
- Sorted cells were collected in 1.5 ml tubes containing 200 ⁇ l fetal calf serum (FCS) into two fractions of CD34 + and CD34 " cells. After one wash CD34 positive and negative cells were resuspended in Iscove's medium (Difco, France) and kept on ice.
- FCS fetal calf serum
- Colonies were grown in short term culture in methylcellulose ( 0,8% final conc.,Eurobio, France) dissolved with Iscove's medium; growth factors were procured by 0.5 ml pretested placental cell conditioned medium (PCM) (Exp. Hematol., 8, 2, 177-184, 1989), (equivalent to 10 ng GM-CSF), and 20% (v/v) fetal calf serum. Two to four dishes were set up in parallel. In standard assays 2x10 ⁇ bone marrow MNC in a final volume of 1 ml were seeded per 3.5 cm Petri dish. After incubation for seven days at 37°C and 5% CO2, colonies were evaluated with an inverted microscope by counting ceil aggregates of more than 50 cells. To test whether MM-plasmocytes modified progenitor growth, different proportions (0-
- MNC fractions from MM-LO bone marrow (Pat. Bl or BE) and from a healthy volunteer of similar age were sorted as described above. Positive and negative fraction cells were kept on ice and cell densities adjusted. Normal CD34 cells were mixed with MM CD34 negative ceils, and conversely, MM CD34+ cells were mixed with normal CD34 negative cells in such way, that in the suspension 1x1 O ⁇ (or 2x10 4 ) hematopoeitic cells and 1x10 ⁇ (or 2x10 6 ) accessory cells were present per ml ; these cells were inoculated in Petri dishes , stimulated and cultured in methylcellulose as above, and colonies were evaluated (Fig.1b)1+2).
- monocyte content was evaluated after staining with May-Gr ⁇ nwald/Giemsa; 2x10 ⁇ monocytes (calculated in the MNC fraction) were then suspended in 1 ml colorless RPMI supplemented with 10% (v/v) fetal calf serum, and incubated in 3.5 cm Petri dishes.
- MM-LO supernatant Two different doses of MM-LO supernatant were tested : in cultures as above for stimulation 0,15 ml PCM was used throughout, and 0,15 ml or 0,075 ml MM-LO supernatants and respective aiiquots of Iscove's medium were added per dish.
- Umbilical cord blood CD34 + cells were obtained by immunomagnetic separation using microspheres (system MiniMACS, Miltenyi) ((Hematopoietic Stem Cells, The Mulhouse Manual, Ed. E.Wunder, H. Sovalat,
- MM-LO and normal bone marrows were processed on the same day. Approximately 10 ⁇ MNC were flow-sorted within 4-6 hours; pure cell fractions were then mixed to reconstitute heterologous cell populations of standardized composition (compare page 6), i.e. 10 4 (or 2x10 4 ) CD34+ per 10 6 (or 2x10 6 ) CD34" cells per ml of suspension. Viability as measured by Trypan blue exclusion was above 97% in all fractions. MM-LO patients Bl (name of patient) and BE (name of patient) were tested. CD34 + cells from both patients, gave rise to high colony numbers in the presence of normal CD34- cells.
- PB peripheral blood
- MM-LO bone marrow
- MM-LO BM supernatants showed inhibition at varying degrees averaging 24% reduction of the growth in presence of PCM alone; and so did all four PB supernatants (averaging 14%).
