pubmed:abstractText
Nonphagocytic, nonadherent mononuclear cells from canine peripheral blood (PBMC) were shown to suppress colony formation in agar of autologous and allogeneic bone marrow granulocyte-macrophage progenitor cells (CFU-GM). Suppression required previous cell-to-cell contact in liquid culture between PBMC and bone marrow cells (BMC) and was time- and dose-dependent and resistant to x-irradiation with 20 Gy. Small BMC were less susceptible than large BMC, whereas day-7 and day-14 CFU-GM were equally suppressed. Cryo-preservation of BMC did not enhance CFU-GM inhibition. Spontaneous inactivation during liquid culture of CFU-GM or accessory cells by PBMC is the likely effector mechanism. Possible recognition structures are different from dog leukocyte antigens A and B. Canine PBMC or subpopulations thereof might participate in the regulation of normal hemopoiesis and in the rejection of hemopoietic stem cell grafts by natural killer cell-like mechanisms as has been suggested for human and murine natural killer cells.
