Detection of Oncostatin M/OSM in Human Dendritic Cells by Flow Cytometry. Human monocyte-derived dendritic cells were stained with Mouse Anti-Human Oncostatin M Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB2951, filled histogram) or isotype control antibody (Catalog # MAB003, open histogram), followed by Phycoerythrin-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # F0102B). To facilitate intracellular staining, cells were fixed with paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with saponin.

Cell Proliferation Induced by Oncostatin M/OSM and Neutralization by Human Oncostatin M/OSM Antibody. Recombinant Human Oncostatin M (Catalog # 295-OM) stimulates proliferation in the TF-1 human erythro-leukemic cell line in a dose-dependent manner (orange line). Prolif-eration elicited by Recom-binant Human Oncostatin M (2 ng/mL) is neutralized (green line) by increasing concentrations of Mouse Anti-Human Oncostatin M Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB2951). The ND50 is typically 0.3-1.5 µg/mL.

Background: Oncostatin M/OSM
Oncostatin M (OSM) is a cytokine originally isolated from medium conditioned by PMA-treated U-937 human histiocytic leukemia cells based on its ability to inhibit growth of A375 melanoma cells. The human OSM cDNA encodes a 252 amino acid pre-pro-OSM polypeptide with a 25 residue hydrophobic signal peptide and a hydrophilic C-terminal domain that are proteolytically processed to generate the 196 residue mature form of OSM. Although both mature and pro-OSM are equally active in radio-receptor assays, the mature OSM is 5- to 60-fold more active in growth inhibition assays. Thus, proteolytic processing of the pro-OSM peptide may be important in regulating the in vivo activities of OSM.
OSM is a pleiotropic cytokine that initiates its biological activities by binding to specific cell surface receptors. The biological activity of human OSM is mediated either by the LIF/OSM receptor complex composed of gp130 and LIF R alpha or by a human OSM specific receptor composed of gp130 and OSM R alpha. The gp130, a signal transducing component ( beta subunit) of the IL-6, LIF and CNTF receptor complexes, was identified as a low-affinity OSM receptor that does not transduce OSM signals. The low affinity LIF receptor (LIF R, a gp130-related protein) has been identified to be a component of a high-affinity OSM receptor that will transduce OSM signals. Besides its growth inhibitory activities on human A375 melanoma and mouse M1 myeloid leukemic cells, as well as on other solid tumor cells, OSM also has growth stimulatory activities on normal fibroblasts, AIDS-Kaposi’s sarcoma cells, and a human erythroleukemia cell line, TF-1. Other OSM-mediated activities reported to date include: stimulation of plasminogen activator activity in cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells; regulation of IL-6 expression in human endothelial cells; and stimulation of LDL uptake and up-regulation of cell surface LDL receptors in HepG2 cells.
