Bone marrow-derived epithelial cells and hair follicle stem cells contribute to development of chronic cutaneous neoplasms.

ABSTRACT: We used allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) and a mouse multistage cutaneous carcinogenesis model to probe recruitment of bone marrow-derived epithelial cells (BMDECs) in skin tumors initiated with the carcinogen, dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA), and promoted with 12-O-tetradecanolyphorbol-13-acetate (TPA). BMDECs clustered in the lesional epithelium, expressed cytokeratins, proliferated, and stratified. We detected cytokeratin induction in plastic-adherent bone marrow cells (BMCs) cultured in the presence of filter-separated keratinocytes (KCs) and bone morphogenetic protein 5 (BMP5). Lineage-depleted BMCs migrated towards High Mobility Group Box 1 (HMGB1) protein and epidermal KCs in ex vivo invasion assays. Naive female mice receiving BMTs from DMBA-treated donors developed benign and malignant lesions after TPA promotion alone. We conclude that BMDECs contribute to the development of papillomas and dysplasia, demonstrating a systemic contribution to these lesions. Furthermore, carcinogen-exposed BMCs can initiate benign and malignant lesions upon tumor promotion. Ultimately, these findings may suggest targets for treatment of non-melanoma skin cancers.

Project description:Angiogenesis is essential for cyclic endometrial growth, implantation, and pregnancy maintenance. Vasculogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels by bone marrow (BM)-derived endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs), has been shown to contribute to endometrial vasculature. However, it is unknown whether vasculogenesis occurs in neovascularization of the decidua during pregnancy. To investigate the contribution of BM-derived EPCs to vascularization of the pregnant uterus, we induced non-gonadotoxic submyeloablation by 5-fluorouracil administration to wild-type FVB/N female mice recipients followed by BM transplantation from transgenic mice expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP) under regulation of Tie2 endothelial-specific promoter. Following 1 month, Tie2-GFP BM-transplanted mice were bred and sacrificed at various gestational days (ED6.5, ED10.5, ED13.5, ED18.5, and postpartum). Bone-marrow-transplanted non-pregnant and saline-injected pregnant mice served as controls (n = 5-6/group). Implantation sites were analyzed by flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence. While no GFP-positive EPCs were found in non-pregnant or early pregnant uteri of BM-transplanted mice, GFP-positive EPCs were first detected in pregnant uterus on ED10.5 (0.12%) and increased as the pregnancy progressed (1.14% on ED13.5), peaking on ED18.5 (1.42%) followed by decrease in the postpartum (0.9%). The percentage of endothelial cells that were BM-derived out of the total endothelial cell population in the implantation sites (GFP+CD31+/CD31+) were 9.3%, 15.8%, and 6.1% on ED13.5, ED18.5, and postpartum, respectively. Immunohistochemistry demonstrated that EPCs incorporated into decidual vasculature, and immunofluorescence showed that GFP-positive EPCs colocalized with CD31 in vascular endothelium of uterine implantation sites, confirming their endothelial lineage. Our findings indicate that BM-derived EPCs contribute to vasculogenesis of the pregnant mouse decidua.

Project description:BackgroundAdult-derived bone marrow stem cells are capable of reconstituting the haematopoietic system. However there is ongoing debate in the literature as to whether bone marrow derived cells have the ability to populate other tissues and express tissue specific markers. The airway has been an organ of major interest and was one of the first where this was demonstrated. We have previously demonstrated that the mouse airway can be repopulated by side population bone marrow transplanted cells. Here we investigate the frequency and phenotypic nature of these bone marrow derived cells.MethodsFemale mice were engrafted with male whole bone marrow or side population (SP) cells and subjected to detergent-induced damage after 3 months. Donor cells were identified by Y chromosome fluorescence in situ hybridisation and their phenotype was assessed by immunohistochemistry on the same sections. Slides were visualised by a combination of widefield and deconvolved microscopy and whole cells were analysed on cytospin preparations.ResultsThe frequencies of engraftment of male cells in the airway of mice that show this (9/10), range from 1.0-1.6% with whole marrow and 0.6-1.5% with SP cells. Undamaged controls have only between 0.1 and 0.2% male cells in the trachea. By widefield microscopy analysis we find 60.2% (53/88) of male donor derived cells express cytokeratins as a marker of epithelial cells. These results were reinforced using deconvolved microscopy and scored by two independent investigators. In addition cytospin analysis of cells dissociated from the damaged trachea of engrafted mice also reveals donor derived Y chromosome positive cells that are immunopositive for cytokeratin. Using cytokeratin and the universal haematopoietic marker CD45 immunohistochemistry, we find the donor derived cells fall into four phenotypic classes. We do not detect cytokeratin positive cells in whole bone marrow using cytokeratin immunostaining and we do not detect any cytokeratin mRNA in SP or bone marrow samples by RT-PCR.ConclusionThe appearance of bone marrow derived cells in the tracheal epithelium is enriched by detergent-induced tissue damage and the majority of these cells express an epithelial marker. The cytokeratin positive donor derived cells in the tracheal epithelium are not present in the injected donor cells and must have acquired this novel phenotype in vivo.
