Role of GM-CSF in tolerance induction by mobilized hematopoietic progenitors

Abstract: Mechanisms of protection against autoimmune diseases by transplantation of autologous hematopoietic progenitors remain poorly defined. We recently demonstrated that, unlike medullary hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), mobilized hematopoietic progenitors (HPCs) stimulate peripheral Foxp3 ؉ regulatory T cell (Treg)-expansion through cell-contact activation of Notch signaling and through as yet undetermined soluble factor(s), distinct from TGF-␤1. Herein we identified one such soluble factor as granulocyte macropha… Show more

“…However, it is very likely that other cells may contribute to the effect of pegG-CSF on Tregs. In this regard, we have previously reported that multipotent hematopoietic progenitors mobilized by G-CSF also promote the expansion of Tregs (22,23). Additionally, we observed that DCs from pegG-CSF-treated mice produced more inflammatory cytokines and chemokines in response to LPS or R848 stimulation than DCs from excipient-treated mice, suggesting that their tolerogenic potential may eventually get lost in infectious or inflammatory conditions (Supplemental Fig.…”

“…Although GM-CSF is known to act on DCs, it has also been shown to augment TCR-induced Treg proliferation through direct effects on Tregs (27). To distinguish whether GM-CSF acted on DCs and/or T cells in enhancing Treg proliferation, we used IL-3b/bc DKO mice, which are unable to signal through the GM-CSFR.…”

“…The first subset to be recognized comprised myeloid progenitors that acquired suppressive properties in tumoral and inflammatory environments (1) and played either detrimental or beneficial roles in different pathological situations. We have reported previously that mobilization with hematopoietic growth factors conferred tolerogenic properties to multipotent hematopoietic progenitors at the multipotent progenitor (MPP2) stage of differentiation that enabled them to promote the expansion of regulatory T cells (2,3), thereby preventing spontaneous autoimmune type 1 diabetes (T1D) in the nonobese diabetic (NOD) mouse model. Moreover, parasitic infections were shown to stimulate via IL-25 the emergence of Th2 cytokine-secreting MPPs (MPP Th2 ) that ultimately differentiated into mature cell types with pro-Th2 functions, thus contributing to parasitic clearance (4).…”
