Abstract We studied the effect of recombinant human macrophage-colony-stimulating factor (rhM-CSF) on the formation of lung and liver metastases following the i.v. injection of the B16 melanoma subline (B16 LiLu) into mice. When rhM-CSF was administered before the B16 inoculation, the number of tumor metastases decreased in the lung and liver. However, the administration of rhM-CSF after B16 inoculation did not produce an antimetastatic effect in the lung, but did in the liver, B16 cells labeled with 5-[125I]-iodo-2'-deoxyuridine (125I-dUrd) were injected and the arrest of tumor cell emboli was examined in the capillary beds of the lung and liver of mice treated with either vehicle or rhM-CSF. In both groups, there were the same numbers of B16 cells in both the lung and the liver 3 minutes after the B16 injection, and almost all tumor cells died within 24 h. However, the number of cells surviving in the lung was decreased in mice injected with rhM-CSF (37%). There was no difference in the number of cells in the livers of mice treated either with vehicle or rhM-CSF in the first 24 h after tumor cell injection. The administration of rhM-CSF increased NK 1.1+ cells in the mouse spleen and facilitated NK activity in vivo. At the same time, the administration of an anti-NK 1.1 antibody blocked the antimetastatic effect of rhM-CSF in the lung but not in the liver. The antibody was effective only when it was injected before the B16 inoculation. These results suggest that the antimetastatic effect of rhM-CSF in the lung was mediated by NK 1.1+ cells within 24 h of B16 injection. In contrast, the antimetastatic effect of rhM-CSF in the liver was mediated not only by NK 1.1+ cells but also by other antimetastatic systems such as macrophages.
