Lymphoid-Biased Hematopoietic Stem Cells Are Maintained with Age and Efficiently Generate Lymphoid Progeny.

ABSTRACT: Current models propose that reductions in the number of lymphoid-biased hematopoietic stem cells (Ly-HSCs) underlie age-related declines in lymphopoiesis. We show that Ly-HSCs do not decline in number with age. Old Ly-HSCs exhibit changes in gene expression and a myeloid-biased genetic profile, but we demonstrate that they retain normal lymphoid potential when removed from the old in vivo environment. Additional studies showing that interleukin-1 inhibits Ly-HSC lymphoid potential provide support for the hypothesis that increased production of inflammatory cytokines during aging underlies declines in lymphocyte production. These results indicate that current models proposing that lymphopoiesis declines with age due to loss of Ly-HSCs require revision and provide an additional perspective on why lymphocyte development in the elderly is attenuated.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough mobilization of hematopoietic stem cells and hematopoietic progenitor cells can be achieved with a combination of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor and plerixafor (AMD3100), improving approaches for hematopoietic progenitor cell mobilization is clinically important.Design and methodsHeparan sulfate proteoglycans are ubiquitous macromolecules associated with the extracellular matrix that regulates biology of hematopoietic stem cells. We studied the effects of a new family of synthetic oligosaccharides mimicking heparan sulfate on hematopoietic stem cell mobilization. These oligosaccharides were administered intravenously alone or in combination with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor and/or AMD3100 in mice. Mobilized hematopoietic cells were counted and phenotyped at different times and the ability of mobilized hematopoietic stem cells to reconstitute long-term hematopoiesis was determined by competitive transplantation into syngenic lethally irradiated mice followed by secondary transplantation.ResultsMimetics of heparan sulfate induced rapid mobilization of B-lymphocytes, T-lymphocytes, hematopoietic stem cells and hematopoietic progenitor cells. They increased the mobilization of hematopoietic stem cells and hematopoietic progenitor cells more than 3-fold when added to the granulocyte colony-stimulating factor/AMD3100 association. Hematopoietic stem cells mobilized by mimetics of heparan sulfate or by the granulocyte colony-stimulating factor/AMD3100/mimetics association were as effective as hematopoietic stem cells mobilized by the granulocyte colony-stimulating factor/AMD3100 association for primary and secondary hematopoietic reconstitution of lethally irradiated mice.ConclusionsThis new family of mobilizing agents could alone or in combination with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor and/or AMD3100 mobilize a high number of hematopoietic stem cells that were able to maintain long-term hematopoiesis. These results strengthen the role of heparan sulfates in the retention of hematopoietic stem cells in bone marrow and support the use of small glyco-drugs based on heparan sulfate in combination with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor and AMD3100 to improve high stem cell mobilization, particularly in a prospect of use in human therapeutics.
