Endothelial cells are a potent source of hematopoietic growth factors when stimulated by soluble products of monocytes. Interleukin 1 (IL 1) is released by activated monocytes and is a mediator of the inflammatory response. We determined whether purified recombinant human IL 1 could stimulate cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells to release hematopoietic growth factors. As little as 1 U/ml of IL 1 stimulated growth factor production by the endothelial cells, and increasing amounts of IL 1 enhanced growth factor production in a dose- dependent manner. Growth factor production increased within 2 to 4 hr and remained elevated for more than 48 hr. To investigate the molecular basis for these findings, oligonucleotide probes for granulocyte- macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), granulocyte colony- stimulating factor (G-CSF), macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M- CSF), and multi-CSF were hybridized to poly(A)-containing RNA prepared from unstimulated and IL 1-stimulated endothelial cells. Significant levels of GM-CSF and G-CSF, but not M-CSF or multi-CSF, mRNA were detected in the IL 1-stimulated endothelial cells. Biological assays performed on the IL 1-stimulated endothelial cell-conditioned medium confirmed the presence of both GM- and G-CSF. These results demonstrate that human recombinant IL 1 can stimulate endothelial cells to release GM-CSF and G-CSF, and provide a mechanism by which IL 1 could modulate both granulocyte production and function during the course of an inflammatory response.
