Received October 25, 1989 Effects of okadaic acid, a potent non-12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol13-acetate(TPA)-type tumor promoter, on mouse hemopoietic cells were investigated. Okadaic acid stimulated mouse bone marrow cells to form granulocyte-macrophage colony-forming unit(CFU-GM) colonies without added colony stimulating factors(CSFs). At the concentration of 1.82 x 10e8M, colony formation of 77 +_14 colonies/l x IO5 bone marrow cells was observed. .Cbservations on the effects of other cells on the CSF induction suggested that okadaic acid primarily stimulated the functions of macrophages, and the CSF production from macrophages might be attributed to the CFU-GM colony formation. On the other hand, the erythroid colony-forming unit(CFU-E) colony formation stimulated by erythropoietin was inhibited by the addition of okadaic acid. 0 1989Academic Press.1°C.

Peritoneal exudate cells, Preparation of peritoneal macrophages: obtained from male ICR mice 4 days after they had been intraperitoneally were centrifuged at 140 x g injected with 2 ml of 10% proteose peptone, The pellets were suspended in Hanks' balanced salt solution for 5 min. The peritoneal cells were and washed twice with the same medium. resuspended in RPM1 1640 medium supplemented with 5% fetal calf serum and incubated in 16 mm wells at 1 x 106cells/well for 2 hrs at 37OC in 5% co2. The adherent macrophages were washed twice with the same medium and used for the culture experiments. Macrophages were cultivated in 1 ml of the medium with or without test samples at 37OC in a humidified atmosphere of 5% C02. The aliquots were centrifuged and assayed for CFU-GM colony formation. Preparation of T cell-enriched fractions: The splenocytes obtained from male ICR mice (7- to 8-weeks-old) were suspended in Eagle's minimum essential medium and mashed on a stainless steel mesh (# 150). Then, a solution of 0.83% NH4C1 / 0.17M Tris HCl buffer (pH 7.65) (9/l) was added and maintained at 4OC for 5 min to remove erythrocytes. After the centrifugation at 140 x g for 5 min, the cells were washed twice with Eagle's medium containing 5% fetal calf serum and passed through a Sephadex G-10 column . The cell fractions were centrifuged and then loaded on a column of nylon fiber equilibrated with Eagle's medium supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum. T cell-enriched fractions were collected and washed twice with RPM1 1640 medium supplemented with 5% fetal calf serum. The culture experiments were performed with 1 x IO6 cells/l ml of the same medium with or without test samples at 37OC for 3 days in a humidified atmosphere of 5% C02. The thus obtained cells reacted with anti-mouse Thy-l and complement. Preparation of B cell enriched fractions: The splenocytes that had been passed through a Sephadex G-10 column were treated with anti-mouse Thy-l at 30°C for 30 min and followed by treatment with complement(l/5 dilution). Then, the cells were washed and used for the culture experiments. The thus obtained cells reacted with anti-mouse B cell.
