题目:: Effect of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) on host hematopoietic progenitor cells is mediated by Fas-Fas ligand interactions but this does not explain the effect of GVHD on donor cells.

摘要:: The acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) generated in BDF1 mice by the injection of spleen cells from the C57BL/6 parental strain induces a direct cell-mediated attack on host lymphohematopoietic populations, resulting in the reconstitution of the host with donor hematopoietic stem cells. We examined the effect of GVHD on the donor and host hematopoiesis in parental-induced acute GVHD. The bone marrow was hypoplastic and the number of hematopoietic progenitor cells significantly decreased at 4 weeks after GVHD induction. However, extramedullary splenic hematopoiesis was present and the number of hematopoietic progenitor cells in the spleen significantly increased at this time. Fas expression on the host spleen cells and bone marrow cells significantly increased during weeks 2 to 8 of GVHD. Host cell incubation with anti-Fas Ab induced apoptosis, and the number of hematopoietic progenitor cells decreased during these weeks. A significant correlation between the augmented Fas expression on host bone marrow cells and the decreased number of host bone marrow cells by acute GVHD was observed. Furthermore, the injection of Fas ligand (FasL)-deficient B6/gld spleen cells failed to affect host bone marrow cells. Although Fas expression on repopulating donor cells also increased, Fas-induced apoptosis by the repopulating donor cells was not remarkable until 12 weeks, when more than 90% of the cells were donor cells. The number of hematopoietic progenitor cells in the bone marrow and the spleen by the repopulating donor cells, however, decreased over an extended time during acute GVHD. This suggests that Fas-FasL interactions may regulate suppression of host hematopoietic cells but not of donor hematopoietic cells. Hematopoietic dysfunctions caused by the reconstituted donor cells are independent to Fas-FasL interactions and persisted for a long time during parental-induced acute GVHD.
