Article Title: The role of marrow accessory cell populations in the augmentation of human erythroid progenitor cell (BFU-E) proliferation by prostaglandin E
Abstract: The requirement for CD8+ T lymphocytes in the stimulation of erythroid progenitor cells by prostaglandin E (PGE) was examined. When low density bone marrow (LD-BM) or non-adherent bone marrow (NA-BM) cells were depleted of CD8+ cells the enhancing effect of PGE on BFU-E proliferation was abrogated. However, further enrichment of marrow progenitor cells by depletion of accessory cells using a cocktail of specific monoclonal antibodies, immunoadherence and fluorescence activated cell sorting with the MY10 monoclonal antibody resulted in a population of erythroid progenitor cells which were responsive to the enhancing effect of PGE despite the absence of CD8+ cells. Stepwise individual cell lineage depletion of marrow cell populations indicated that prostaglandin E enhanced erythroid burst formation in the absence of CD8+ cells provided that glycophorin-A+ cells were removed from LD-BM or NA-BM cells. These results suggest that nucleated erythroid cell populations may modulate the enhancement of BFU-E by PGE. The ability of GP-A+ cells to block the enhancement of erythroid burst formation by PGE following removal of CD8+ T cells was confirmed by readdition of conditioned medium prepared from positively selected GP-A+ marrow cells. These results expand the role of CD8+ T cells in the PGE enhancement of BFU-E proliferation and suggest another mechanism by which accessory cells regulate the proliferation of BFU-E in bone marrow. © 1989.
