Signal-response coupling mediated by the transduced colony-stimulating factor-1 receptor and its oncogenic fms variants in naive cells.

Colony-stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1 or M-CSF) supports the proliferation and survival of mononuclear phagocytes by binding to a receptor (CSF-1R) encoded by the c-fms proto-oncogene. Whereas the CSF-1R kinase is normally regulated by ligand, receptors bearing 'activating mutations' act constitutively as enzymes and can transform fibroblasts and haemopoietic cells of different lineages. Introduction of human CSF-1R enables mouse NIH-3T3 cells to form colonies in agar in response to human CSF-1 and to proliferate in serum-free medium supplemented with CSF-1, albumin, transferrin and insulin. Similarly, expression of human CSF-1R in interleukin 3-dependent mouse FDC-P1 myeloid cells enables them to grow in CSF-1. High levels of CSF-1R expression in FDC-P1 cells can induce factor-independent growth which is abrogated by a 'neutralizing' monoclonal antibody to the receptor. Therefore, critical mutations in the c-fms gene or overexpression of CSF-1R in immature myeloid precursors might each contribute to leukaemia.
