Abstract

Interleukin 1 (IL-1) and macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) are pleiotropic cytokines which interact in the regulation of lymphocyte proliferation and differentiation [1–3]. IL-1 has been found to consist of two functionally identical but chemically distinct polypeptides termed IL-lα and IL-1β [1]. Complimentary DNAs of their respective mRNAs have been cloned. Recombinant factors are now available and have entered clinical phase I trials [4–7]. They may have potential clinical usefulness by direct or indirect antitumor effects through induction of other cytokines. Alternatively, chemotherapy-induced bone marrow suppression may be alleviated by the use of these cytokines [8, 9]. However, production of both IL-1 and M-CSF has been reported for a number of tumor cells in vitro. IL-1 activity is secreted by melanoma and hepatoma cells in vitro [10, 11]. IL-1-like factors are released from glioblastoma cells in vitro, and IL-lα-like factors are released from thyroid cancer cells [12, 13]. Release of M-CSF by pancreatic cancer cells in vitro has been reported [14, 15]. Also, breast cancer, colon cancer, and lymphoma cell lines have been reported to express surface membrane receptors for IL-1 [16, 17]. Stimulation by IL-1 has been observed with SW-13 adenocarcinoma, H-128 small cell lung cancer, and with astrocytoma cells [18–20]. However, IL-lα and IL-1β may also inhibit proliferation of MCF-7, T47D, and MDA-MB-415 cells in vitro [21]. These effects are related to the presence of specific receptor sites [22]. IL-lα may also modulate the activity of cytotoxic drugs against human cancer cells [9]. These findings raise the possibility that IL-1 and M-CSF might also modulate the growth pattern of primary human tumor cells. The aims of our present study were to determine whether IL-lα, IL-β, or M-CSF may act as modulators of clonogenic growth from freshly explanted solid tumor specimens, to define an optimal concentration and to compare the activity of these cytokines.
