AbstractThe production of granulocytes and macrophages from progenitor cells in the bone marrow is controlled, in part, by a family of humoral regulators, termed colony stimulating factors (CSF). We have examined genetic factors controlling this process using in vitro cloning techniques. The inbred mouse strain LP/J showed elevated colony formation (CFU‐C) in response to one subtype of CSF (G, M‐CSF) compared to other strains of mice examined including the strain C57BL/6J. This variation resulted in a shift to the left of the CFU‐C dose‐response curve for LP/J. No difference between LP/J and C57BL/6J was seen with another subtype of CSF (CSF‐1). Maximal CFU‐C response was similar in the two mouse strains with both types of CSF, and mixing experiments with both types of CSF gave the same maximal level of colony formation as the individual CSF. (C57BL/6J x LP/J)FI progeny exhibited a CFU‐C dose‐response curve to CSF‐2 that was intermediate between the parental types, indicating additive inheritance. Genetic analysis of backcross progeny suggested that the variation in CFU‐C response is probably determined by a single primary gene, although the variability of the colony formation assay has complicated interpretation of genetic studies. These results suggest that CSF‐1 and G, M‐CSF act independently on a single bone marrow progenitor cell population. The properties of the genetic variation for G, M‐CSF response are consistent with an alteration in cellul
