Abstract
Skeletal metastases present a major clinical challenge for prostate cancer patient care, inflicting distinctive mixed osteoblastic and osteolytic lesions that cause morbidity and refractory skeletal complications. Macrophages are abundant in bone and bone marrow and can influence both osteoblast and osteoclast function in physiology and pathology. Herein, we examined the role of macrophages in prostate cancer bone lesions, particularly the osteoblastic response. First, macrophage and lymphocyte distributions were qualitatively assessed in patient's prostate cancer skeletal lesions by immunohistochemistry. Second, macrophage functional contributions to prostate tumour growth in bone were explored using an immune-competent mouse model combined with two independent approaches to achieve in vivo macrophage depletion: liposome encapsulated clodronate that depletes phagocytic cells (including macrophages and osteoclasts); and targeted depletion of CD169(+) macrophages using a suicide gene knock-in model. Immunohistochemistry and histomorphometric analysis were performed to quantitatively assess cancer-induced bone changes. In human bone metastasis specimens, CD68(+) macrophages were consistently located within the tumour mass. Osteal macrophages (osteomacs) were associated with pathological woven bone within the metastatic lesions. In contrast, lymphocytes were inconsistently present in prostate cancer skeletal lesions and when detected, had varied distributions. In the immune-competent mouse model, CD169(+) macrophage ablation significantly inhibited prostate cancer-induced woven bone formation, suggesting that CD169(+) macrophages within pathological woven bone are integral to tumour-induced bone formation. In contrast, pan-phagocytic cell, but not targeted CD169(+) macrophage depletion resulted in increased tumour mass, indicating that CD169(-) macrophage subset(s) and/or osteoclasts influenced tumour growth. In summary, these observations indicate a prominent role for macrophages in prostate cancer bone metastasis that may be therapeutically targetable to reduce the negative skeletal impacts of this malignancy, including tumour-induced bone modelling.

Abstract
The onset and development of type 1 diabetes (T1D) occurs in genetically predisposed individuals, and is attributed to autoimmune destruction of pancreatic beta-cells involving a multitude of immune mechanisms. Defects in immune regulation may play a central role in T1D, involving impaired function and communication of both myeloid and lymphoid cells of the innate and adaptive immune compartments. Dendritic cells and regulatory T (Treg) cells are part of this network, which seem to be hampered in their quest to control and regulate tissue-destructive autoimmunity. Recent studies have shown that in vivo activated CD16- blood monocytes exhibiting proinflammatory features are present in diabetic subjects. These monocytes may govern T cell-mediated immune responses towards the development of tissue-destructive Th1 and Th17 subtypes, and give rise to inflammatory macrophages in tissues. Differential effects of cytokines IFN-gamma and IL-4 in the development of inflammatory macrophages, and the distinct developmental pathways of proinflammatory or tissue-repair-associated monocytes suggest that controlling the activity of these monocytes could be part of an immune intervention strategy to prevent T1D. Similarly, strategies to target autoantigens to immature, steady-state dendritic cells could guide the immune response away from Th1 and Th17 immune effectors. This review examines potential approaches to this goal by manipulation of myeloid and lymphoid cell regulatory networks in T1D.

Abstract
Chronic graft versus host disease (cGVHD) is a major and frequent late complication in allogeneic stem cell transplantation recipients. Although thrombocytopenia in cGVHD patients is among the most consistent and strongest predictors of poor survival across many cGVHD studies, such correlation is still neither clearly explained nor well understood. Low platelet counts in the setting of cGVHD are associated with an increase in complications and treatment-related mortality, but usually not with higher relapse rate or engraftment failure rate. Bleeding might be occasionally increased along with, paradoxically, thrombosis. Hemostatic disorders in the context of cGVHD are significant complications with multifactorial etiology, including tissue injury with releasing microparticles, cytokine release, macrophage/monocyte clearance, CMV infection, production of transforming growth factor-beta, and low levels of thrombopoietin. Future clinical trials with agents that stimulate megakaryocytopoiesis or influence underlying impaired hemostasis mechanisms should investigate whether such interventions may improve outcomes in patients with cGVHD.

Abstract
To characterize recombinant human macrophage-colony stimulating factor (rhM-CSF)-associated thrombocytopenia (TCP), in vivo studies were performed in dogs, including the biodistributions and recoveries of radiolabelled autologous and allogeneic platelets. rhM-CSF induced a reversible, dose-dependent decrease in platelet counts. The number of megakaryocytes in spleen and marrow of rhM-CSF-treated dogs was increased two to threefold. Recoveries of allogeneic platelets transfused from rhM-CSF-treated donors into tolerized recipients (n = 3) were not significantly different from allogeneic baseline studies (93 +/- 10% of baseline values at 24 h and 90 +/- 1% at 40 h), whereas autologous platelets infused back into rhM-CSF-treated donors had decreased recoveries (45 +/- 2% of baseline values at 24 h, P = 0.03 and 20 +/- 4% at 40 h, P = 0.001). Platelet biodistribution studies showed increased accumulation of radiolabelled platelets over the spleens and livers of rhM-CSF-treated dogs. Histochemistry showed increased levels of platelet-specific antigen (CD41; glycoprotein IIb) associated with Kupffer cells. The sensitivity of platelets from rhM-CSF-treated dogs to activation from thrombin, as measured by expression of P-selectin (CD62P), was not significantly different when compared with baseline studies (P = 0.18; n = 4). These results support the concept that rhM-CSF induces an activation of the monocyte-macrophage system (MMS), which causes a reversible TCP in a dog model.

Abstract
Thrombocytopenia after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is associated with an increased risk of bleeding and utilization of significant resources. This review presents an analysis of risk factors associated with delayed platelet engraftment. The retrospective analysis included 1,468 recipients of autologous or allogeneic transplants treated between January 1, 1990 and July 1, 1995. Risk factors associated with delayed platelet engraftment after autologous HSCT included use of marrow rather than peripheral blood as the source of stem cells, being transplanted for acute myeloid leukemia rather than other diseases, positive patient serology for cytomegalovirus and the presence of infection post-transplant before engraftment. Risk factors associated with delayed platelet engraftment after allogeneic marrow transplantation included unrelated as opposed to related donor transplants, being transplanted for diseases other than chronic myelogenous leukemia, increased age, onset of acute graft-versus-host disease (AGVHD), male gender, the administration of methotrexate for GVHD prophylaxis and the presence of infection before engraftment. Delayed platelet recovery is associated with decreased survival after both autologous and allogeneic transplants. Management of delayed platelet recovery by transfusion of blood products requires significant medical resources and is of some risk to the patients. Further development of new strategies may safely reduce the need for blood products. These include peripheral blood stem cell transplants (allogeneic and autologous), new algorithms for administering routine platelet transfusions and investigative biological agents for stimulating megakaryocytopoiesis. Further studies may elucidate the cause of increased platelet consumption associated with infection and GVHD.

Abstract
Interleukin-12 (IL-12) was found to be an active anti-tumor agent in 3 established murine solid tumors: B16 melanoma, Lewis lung carcinoma and renal cell carcinoma (RenCa). IL-12 was well tolerated over a 100-fold dose range. Only the high-dose treatment of IL-12 resulted in a clear reduction in the number of lung metastases from B16 melanoma and Lewis lung carcinoma. Treatment of animals bearing Lewis lung carcinoma with IL-12 in combination with fractionated radiation therapy was markedly dose-modifying, indicating that IL-12 was acting synergistically with radiation. Treatment of animals bearing the same tumor with monocyte colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) along with fractionated radiation therapy resulted in a parallel increase in tumor growth delay with increasing dose of M-CSF, indicating that M-CSF was affecting a subpopulation of tumor cells in addition to those killed by radiation therapy. The combination of IL-12 with M-CSF was most effective with radiation therapy, especially in the clinically relevant dosages of 2 and 3 Gy per fraction. By isobologram analysis, IL-12 and M-CSF, along with fractionated radiation therapy, resulted in a greater-than-additive (synergistic) tumor response.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Macrophages activated by macrophage-colony stimulating factor (M-CSF) are potent immune effector cells and can mediate both in vitro cytotoxicity and antitumor effects in vivo. A Phase I trial combining M-CSF with R24, a mouse monoclonal antibody against GD3 ganglioside that has been shown to localize to melanoma tumors, induce inflammation at tumor sites, and result in major tumor responses in some patients with melanoma was performed. METHODS Nineteen patients with metastatic melanoma received a 14-day continuous intravenous infusion of 80 micrograms/kg/day of recombinant human M-CSF. R24 was administered daily by intravenous infusion on days 6-10 at doses of 1, 3, 10, 30, and 50 micrograms/m2/day. RESULTS All patients developed pruritus and urticaria; 13 patients developed transient thrombocytopenia less than 100,000/mm3. The maximum tolerated dose was not reached. All patients developed a monocytosis characterized by increased expression of the antigen HLA-DR and decreased expression of CD14, a phenotype reported to represent a subpopulation of monocytes active in mediating antibody-directed cellular cytotoxicity. Other biologic effects of treatment included marked but transient decreases in total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein, and high density lipoprotein. Three patients experienced tumor regression in breast, liver, and lymph node metastases and received a second course of therapy. Six of the 19 patients, one of whom received no further therapy, survived more than 2 years and 4 of these patients remain alive 24 to 37 months after treatment. Of the six patients with liver metastases, three (50%) survived more than 2.5 years and one remains alive at 37+ months. CONCLUSIONS Combination therapy with R24 and M-CSF resulted in both clinical and biologic effects that warrant further investigation of this combination.

Abstract
The clinical use of cytokines is still expanding as the knowledge of beneficial effects as adjunct to cancer treatment is increasing. G-CSF and GM-CSF stimulates hemopoietic recovery after myelosuppressive chemotherapy and enhances engraftment after bone marrow transplantation. New cytokines as IL-1, IL-3, IL-4 and IL-6, are studied in clinical trials and combinations of these with stem cell factor seem promising in ex vivo expansion of stem cells. GM-CSF also have antitumor effects. The most recently discovered hemopoietic growth factor is thrombopoietin, from which probably especially patients with leukemia will benefit.

Abstract
Unconjugated monoclonal antibodies (mAb) kill tumor cells in vivo by activating immune functions. One of these is ADCC (antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity). The efficacy of mAbs might be augmented if the cytotoxic capacity of the effector cells could be increased. In this study the augmenting effect of granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), granulocyte/macrophage(GM)-CSF and macrophage(M)-CSF was analyzed. Effector cells [peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) or granulocytes] were activated for 4-6 h by the respective CSF and assayed in an 18-h Cr51-release assay. Human colorectal, lymphoma, glioma and melanoma cell lines were target cells. Mouse mAbs of different isotypes, as well as chimeric and humanized mAbs, were used. mAbs having the human Fc part of the IgG molecule were the most effective. The killing capacity of PBMC as well as of granulocytes was statistically significantly enhanced when mAbs were added. M-CSF and GM-CSF were the best CSF for augmenting the lytic capacity of PBMC in ADCC. G-CSF had no significant effect on PBMC. Spontaneous cytolysis of PBMC was significantly augmented only by M-CSF. Granulocytes were, in general, significantly less effective than PBMC but may be equally effective killer cells together with mouse or human mAbs of the IgG1 isotype, particularly against melanoma cells. Granulocytes may also be significantly stimulated to increased lytic capacity when activated with G-CSF or GM-CSF. On the basis of the present evaluation, clinical trials in tumor patients are warranted, combining mAbs with GM-CSF or M-CSF. Preference might be given to GM-CSF as this cytokine activates both PBMC and granulocytes.
