Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) can elicit responses that include proliferation, granulocytic differentiation, and activation of cellular functions in target cells. The biochemical pathways responsible for transduction of these signals from the G-CSF receptor (G-CSFR) have not been defined. In this report, we show that, in murine (NFS-60) and human (OCI-AML 1) myeloid leukemia cell lines and in murine pro-B-lymphocytic cells, BAF/B03, transfected with the murine G-CSFR, proliferative responses to G-CSF are associated with rapid activation of p42 and p44 MAP kinases and p21ras. Truncation of the cytoplasmic portion of the murine G-CSFR at residue 646 but not at residue 739 abolished G-CSF-induced stimulation of cellular proliferation as well as activation of MAP kinase and p21ras in transfected BAF/B03 cells. G-CSF-induced granulocytic differentiation of the murine leukemic cell line 32DC13(G) occurred in the absence of detectable activation of p42 MAP kinase. Nonproliferative responses to G-CSF in the human promyelocytic cell line HL-60 and in human neutrophils were similarly associated with no MAP kinase activation. These results imply that differing cellular effects of G-CSF may be involve the recruitment of differing signal transduction pathways with the p21ras/MAP kinase pathway being limited to proliferative responses.
