Two lymphokines that contribute to induction of cell differentiation in promyelocytic HL-60 leukemia cells by human T-cell lymphoma HUT-102 cells were identified previously. The lymphokines identified in the differentiation-inducing preparation were interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and lymphotoxin. To determine the remaining component(s) of this differentiation-inducing activity, we used gene-cloned (recombinant) forms and antibodies of lymphokines. The differentiation-inducing activity of the HUT-102 cells was not completely neutralized by the antibodies, suggesting that an additional lymphokine(s) is involved. Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) in combination with retinoic acid induced differentiation of the HL-60 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, the activity of the differentiation-inducing factors was partially inhibited by anti-GM-CSF antibody and completely inhibited by the combination of antibodies to lymphotoxin, IFN-gamma, and GM-CSF. These results indicate that, in addition to IFN-gamma and lymphotoxin, GM-CSF is the third major component released by HUT-102 cells for inducing differentiation of HL-60 cells.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007371 Interferon-gamma The major interferon produced by mitogenically or antigenically stimulated LYMPHOCYTES. It is structurally different from TYPE I INTERFERON and its major activity is immunoregulation. It has been implicated in the expression of CLASS II HISTOCOMPATIBILITY ANTIGENS in cells that do not normally produce them, leading to AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES. Interferon Type II,Interferon, Immune,gamma-Interferon,Interferon, gamma,Type II Interferon,Immune Interferon,Interferon, Type II
D007375 Interleukin-1 A soluble factor produced by MONOCYTES; MACROPHAGES, and other cells which activates T-lymphocytes and potentiates their response to mitogens or antigens. Interleukin-1 is a general term refers to either of the two distinct proteins, INTERLEUKIN-1ALPHA and INTERLEUKIN-1BETA. The biological effects of IL-1 include the ability to replace macrophage requirements for T-cell activation.

D008233 Lymphotoxin-alpha A tumor necrosis factor family member that is released by activated LYMPHOCYTES. Soluble lymphotoxin is specific for TUMOR NECROSIS FACTOR RECEPTOR TYPE I; TUMOR NECROSIS FACTOR RECEPTOR TYPE II; and TUMOR NECROSIS FACTOR RECEPTOR SUPERFAMILY, MEMBER 14. Lymphotoxin-alpha can form a membrane-bound heterodimer with LYMPHOTOXIN-BETA that has specificity for the LYMPHOTOXIN BETA RECEPTOR.
