NOVEL MICROBIAL METABOLITES OF THE PHOSLACTOMYCINS FAMILY INDUCE PRODUCTION OF COLONY-STIMULATING FACTORS BY BONE MARROW STROMAL CELLS: I. TAXONOMY, FERMENTATION AND BIOLOGICAL PROPERTIES

Three metabolites were isolated from the culture broth of an actinomycete strain identified as Streptomyces platensis SANK 60191, that induce the production of colony-stimulating factors (CSFs) by stromal cell line KM-102 at ED50 concentrations from 40 to 200ng/ml. The compounds induced quantities o...

Description
Summary:Three metabolites were isolated from the culture broth of an actinomycete strain identified as Streptomyces platensis SANK 60191, that induce the production of colony-stimulating factors (CSFs) by stromal cell line KM-102 at ED50 concentrations from 40 to 200ng/ml. The compounds induced quantities of granulocyte CSF (G-CSF) and granulocyte-macrophage CSF (GM-CSF) comparable to those induced by interleukin-1, a strong CSF inducer. These metabolites were called leustroducsins (A, B and C) and were later found to be structurally related to phoslactomycins. This is the first report of CSF inducing activity by members of the phoslactomycin class.
