Stromal cell lines derived from murine bone marrow support the growth of immature pre-B cells and produce cytokines that affect the growth and differentiation of other hematopoietic precursors. Conditioned medium (CM) from one such line (TC-1) stimulated marked proliferation of B cells previously activated by anti-Ig (anti-Ig blasts). Proliferation of anti-Ig blasts was not induced by purified cytokines known to be produced by TC-1 (CSF-1, GM-CSF, or G-CSF) or by IL-1, IL-2, IL-3, IL-4, IL-5, or IL-6. Furthermore, IL-2, IL-4, and IL-5, alone or in combination, failed to support proliferation or differentiation of anti-Ig blasts. TC-1 CM enhanced proliferation of B cells that were co-cultured with LPS, anti-Ig, or dextran sulfate; co-stimulation with anti-Ig was unaffected by the presence of monoclonal anti-IL-4. Proliferation of low, but not high, density B cells isolated from spleen was directly stimulated by TC-1 CM. These results suggest that bone marrow stromal cells produce a novel B cell stimulatory factor (BSF-TC) that induces proliferation of activated B cells.
