Normal haematopoietic proliferation and differentiation occur within the human bone marrow microenvironment which is comprised of stromal cells including fibroblasts, adipocytes, macrophages and endothelial cells as well as the extracellular matrix made of collagen, fibronectin, laminin, vitronectin, thrombospondin and haemonectin. All haematopoietic progenitor cells including primitive LTC-IC, multilineage CFU-mix, myeloid CFU-GM and erythroid BFU-E adhere to the heparin-binding domains of the extracellular matrix component fibronectin. Human long-term bone marrow cultures (LTHBMC) represent the best available approximation for the in vivo marrow microenvironment in which the proliferation and differentiation of haematopoietic progenitor cells depend on the presence of marrow stromal cells and their attendant matrices. Since extracellular matrix components have been shown to promote myelopoiesis in long-term murine bone marrow cultures, we have examined the effect of two main components of the extracellular matrix: fibronectin and collagen type I on myelopoiesis in LTHBMC in an effort to increase the myeloid progenitor cell production. The present study revealed different modulatory effects for these two components. Collagen significantly increased the adherent fraction of LTHBMC (p < 0.05) but always resulted in a decreased myeloid progenitor cell (CFU-GM) production throughout the whole 8 weeks of culture. On the other hand, fibronectin significantly increased the number of both non-adherent cells. CFU-GMs (p < 0.01) and to a lesser extent the number of adherent cells as well as maintaining the LTHBMC up to 14 weeks. Fibronectin has been previously shown to stimulate the development of CFU-GMs in short-term semisolid cultures and to play an active role in haematopoietic progenitor cell-microenvironment interactions. Therefore, the presence of fibronectin in LTHBMC could increase both the productivity and longevity of myelopoiesis in the system. The integration of fibronectin in the ex vivo expansion systems currently undergoing development would ensure a sustained effective cumulative production of the myeloid progenitor cells (CFU-GMs), and consequently could accelerate the rate of haematological recovery in transplanted patients.
