Granulocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cells to prevent and treat murine immune-mediated bone marrow failure.

ABSTRACT: Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are immature myeloid cells that originate in the bone marrow (BM) and have immunoregulatory functions. MDSCs have been implicated in the pathogenesis of several autoimmune diseases but have not been investigated in immune aplastic anemia (AA). We examined the roles of granulocytic-MDSCs (G-MDSCs) in murine models of human AA and BM failure (BMF). As both prophylaxis and therapy, BM-derived G-MDSCs improved pancytopenia and BM cellularity and suppressed BM T-cell infiltration in major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-matched C.B10 BMF mice. These effects were not obtained in the MHC-mismatched CByB6F1 AA model, likely because of MHC disparity between G-MDSCs and donor T cells. Single-cell RNA sequencing demonstrated that G-MDSCs downregulated cell cy
