Immunological Heterogeneity of Healthy Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Donors-Effects of Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor on Inflammatory Responses.

ABSTRACT: Interleukin-6 (IL-6) contributes to the development of immune-mediated complications after allogeneic stem cell transplantation. However, systemic IL-6 levels also increase during granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) mobilization of hematopoietic stem cells in healthy donors, but it is not known whether this mobilization alters systemic levels of other IL-6 family cytokines/receptors and whether such effects differ between donors. We examined how G-CSF administration influenced C-reactive protein (CRP) levels (85 donors) and serum levels of IL-6 family cytokines/receptors (20 donors). G-CSF increased CRP levels especially in elderly donors with high pretherapy levels, but these preharvesting levels did not influence clinical outcomes (nonrelapse mortality, graft versus host disease). The increased IL-6 levels during G-CSF therapy normalized within 24 h after treatment. G-CSF administration did not alter serum levels of other IL-6-familly mediators. Oncostatin M, but not IL-6, showed a significant correlation with CRP levels during G-CSF therapy. Clustering analysis of mediator levels during G-CSF administration identified two donor subsets mainly characterized by high oncostatin M and IL-6 levels, respectively. Finally, G-CSF could increase IL-6 release by in vitro cultured monocytes, fibroblasts, and mesenchymal stem cells. In summary, G-CSF seems to induce an acute phase reaction with increased systemic IL-6 levels in healthy stem cell donors.

Project description:IntroductionPeripheral blood stem cells mobilized by granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) from healthy donors are commonly used for allogeneic stem cell transplantation. The effect of G-CSF administration on global serum metabolite profiles has not been investigated before.ObjectivesThis study aims to examine the systemic metabolomic profiles prior to and following administration of G-CSF in healthy adults.MethodsBlood samples were collected from 15 healthy stem cell donors prior to and after administration of G-CSF 10 µg/kg/day for 4 days. Using a non-targeted metabolomics approach, metabolite levels in serum were determined using ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry.ResultsComparison of the metabolite profiles of donors before and after G-CSF treatment revealed 239 metabolites that were significantly altered. The major changes of the metabolite profiles following G-CSF administration included alteration of several fatty acids, including increased levels of several medium and long-chain fatty acids, as well as polyunsaturated fatty acids; while there were lower levels of other lipid metabolites such as phospholipids, lysolipids, sphingolipids. Furthermore, there were significantly lower levels of several amino acids and/or their metabolites, including several amino acids with known immunoregulatory functions (methionine, tryptophan, valine). Lastly, the levels of several nucleotides and nucleotide metabolites (guanosine, adenosine, inosine) were also decreased after G-CSF administration, while methylated products were increased. Some of these altered products/metabolites may potentially have angioregulatory effects whereas others may suggest altered intracellular epigenetic regulation.ConclusionOur results show that G-CSF treatment alters biochemical serum profiles, in particular amino acid, lipid and nucleotide metabolism. Additional studies are needed to further evaluate the relevance of these changes in healthy donors.

Project description:Background:Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is associated with a high risk of immune-mediated post-transplant complications. Graft depletion of immunocompetent cell subsets is regarded as a possible strategy to reduce this risk without reducing antileukemic immune reactivity. Study design and methods:We investigated the effect of hematopoietic stem cell mobilization with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) on peripheral blood and stem cell graft levels of various T, B, and NK cell subsets in healthy donors. The results from flow cytometric cell quantification were examined by bioinformatics analyses. Results:The G-CSF-induced mobilization of lymphocytes was a non-random process with preferential mobilization of naïve CD4+ and CD8+ T cells together with T cell receptor αβ+ T cells, naïve T regulatory cells, type 1 T regulatory cells, mature and memory B cells, and cytokine-producing NK cells. Analysis of circulating lymphoid cell capacity to release various cytokines (IFNγ, IL10, TGFβ, IL4, IL9, IL17, and IL22) showed preferential mobilization of IL10 releasing CD4+ T cells and CD3-19- cells. During G-CSF treatment, the healthy donors formed two subsets with generally strong and weaker mobilization of immunocompetent cells, respectively; hence the donors differed in their G-CSF responsiveness with regard to mobilization of immunocompetent cells. The different responsiveness was not reflected in the graft levels of various immunocompetent cell subsets. Furthermore, differences in donor G-CSF responsiveness were associated with time until platelet engraftment. Finally, strong G-CSF-induced mobilization of various T cell subsets seemed to increase the risk of recipient acute graft versus host disease, and this was independent of the graft T cell levels. Conclusion:Healthy donors differ in their G-CSF responsiveness and preferential mobilization of immunocompetent cells. This difference seems to influence post-transplant recipient outcomes.

Project description:BackgroundG-CSF has been shown to increase neuronal survival, which may positively influence the spinal cord microenvironment during the course of muscular dystrophies.Methodology/principal findingsMale MDX mice that were six weeks of age received a left sciatic nerve transection and were treated with intraperitoneal injections of 200 µg/kg/day of G-CSF 7 days before and 7 days after the transection. The axotomy was performed after the cycles of muscular degeneration/regeneration, consistent with previous descriptions of this model of muscular dystrophy. C57BL/10 mice were used as control subjects. Seven days after the surgery, the animals were sacrificed and their lumbar spinal cords were processed for immunohistochemistry (anti-MHC I, anti-Synaptophysin, anti-GFAP and anti-IBA-1) and transmission electron microscopy. MHC I expression increased in both strains of mice after the axotomy. Nevertheless, the MDX mice displayed a significantly smaller MHC I upregulation than the control mice. Regarding GFAP expression, the MDX mice showed a stronger astrogliosis compared with the C57BL/10 mice across all groups. Both groups that were treated with G-CSF demonstrated preservation of synaptophysin expression compared with the untreated and placebo groups. The quantitative analysis of the ultrastructural level showed a preservation of the synaptic covering for the both groups that were treated with G-CSF and the axotomized groups showed a smaller loss of synaptic contact in relation to the treated groups after the lesion.Conclusions/significanceThe reduction of active inputs to the alpha-motoneurons and increased astrogliosis in the axotomized and control groups may be associated with the cycles of muscle degeneration/regeneration that occur postnatally. The G-CSF treated group showed a preservation of the spinal cord microenvironment after the lesion. Moreover, the increase of MHC I expression in the MDX mice that were treated with G-CSF may indicate that this drug performs an active role in regenerative potential after lesions.
