Abstract:
:In vitro differentiation of human monocytes (Mo) provides large amounts of mature and functionally competent macrophages (M phi) which may be used as potentially powerful anticancer agents for adoptive immunotherapy. Granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) was evaluated for its ability to influence long term cultures of Mo-derived M phi. Large quantities of Mo isolated by leukapheresis and elutriation were cultured in non-adherent cell culture bags or in plastic flasks with or without GM-CSF. At various stages of differentiation, GM-CSF treated M phi were recovered and assayed for survival, morphology, surface antigens, functional properties and proliferation in comparison with control M phi. In the present paper, we demonstrate that GM-CSF at a concentration of 50 U/ml (5 ng/ml) promotes better cell survival and the differentiation of Mo into M phi displaying certain morphological differences as compared to control M phi such as an increased expression of Max-1 antigen, CR3 and Fc gamma II receptors, higher phagocytic properties and increased capacities of cytotoxicity and TNF secretion when the cells are further activated by IFN-gamma. Furthermore, GM-CSF treated cells exhibit a low-grade proliferation although the nature of the proliferating cells has not been entirely elucidated. We conclude that the GM-CSF treated M phi would be particularly suitable for adoptive immunotherapy.
