The effects on hematopoiesis of recombinant stem cell factor (ligand for
c-kit) administered in vivo to mice either alone or in combination with
granulocyte colony-stimulating factor

Stem cell factor (SCF) is the ligand for the receptor encoded by the c- kit
proto-oncogene. Mutations of either c-kit or the SCF gene are responsible
for the defects of W and SI mutant mice, which both suffer a macrocytic
anemia, the former associated with defective stem cells and the latter with
a defective hematopoietic microenvironment. PEGylated recombinant rat SCF
was administered to normal or splenectomized mice for up to 21 days. SCF
was found to be a modest stimulator of peripheral blood neutrophil numbers
in both groups of animals. The peak in neutrophil numbers was higher and
occurred earlier in splenectomized mice. Bone marrow and spleen cellularity
changed little during treatment but the content of interleukin-3-responsive
progenitor cells and spleen colony-forming cells (CFU-S) reached very high
levels, particularly in the spleen. Using recombinant human granulocyte
colony-stimulating factor (rhG-CSF), we have shown that SCF induces a
greater than additive increase in both blood neutrophils and blood-borne
CFU-S. This synergy was seen throughout the dose range and may indicate a
clinical role for SCF either alone or in augmenting the activity of G-CSF
upon blood neutrophils and transplantable stem cells.
