Research Abstract |
The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of thrombopoietin(Tpo) in combination with other cytokines on the growth of murine megakaryocytic, granulocyte-macrophage, erythroid and primitive hematopoietic progenitor cells, excluding possibilities of synergistic effects by serum factor(s). Serum-free culture enabled magakaryocyte colony growth by recombinant murine(rm) Tpo and this was synergistically supported with rmIL-3, rmSCF or rhEpo. Recombinant human IL-6, rhIL-11 and rmGM-CSF showed synergistic effects with rmTPO only In the presence of serum. RmIL-3 and rm SCF Incresed the large colonies and mixed-type colonies containing other populations, suggesting that these cytokines promoted the proliferation of Immature populations of CFU-Mk. The rmTpo enhanced the growth of GM-colonies stimulated by rmGM-CSF or rmIL3 and erythroid bursts by rhEpo, with or without rmIL-3. The rmTpo also significantly incresed HPP colonies in synergy with rmIL-3 only in the presence of serum or rmSCF.
