Remodeling of Bone Marrow Hematopoietic Stem Cell Niches Promotes Myeloid Cell Expansion during Premature or Physiological Aging.

ABSTRACT: Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) residing in the bone marrow (BM) accumulate during aging but are functionally impaired. However, the role of HSC-intrinsic and -extrinsic aging mechanisms remains debated. Megakaryocytes promote quiescence of neighboring HSCs. Nonetheless, whether megakaryocyte-HSC interactions change during pathological/natural aging is unclear. Premature aging in Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome recapitulates physiological aging features, but whether these arise from altered stem or niche cells is unknown. Here, we show that the BM microenvironment promotes myelopoiesis in premature/physiological aging. During physiological aging, HSC-supporting niches decrease near bone but expand further from bone. Increased BM noradrenergic innervation promotes β₂-adrenergic-receptor(AR)-interleukin-6-dependent megakaryopoiesis. Reduced β₃-AR-Nos1 activity correlates with decreased endosteal niches and megakaryocyte apposition to sinusoids. However, chronic treatment of progeroid mice with β₃-AR agonist decreases premature myeloid and HSC expansion and restores the proximal association of HSCs to megakaryocytes. Therefore, normal/premature aging of BM niches promotes myeloid expansion and can be improved by targeting the microenvironment.

Robo4 cooperates with CXCR4 to specify hematopoietic stem cell localization to bone marrow niches.

Project description:Specific bone marrow (BM) niches are critical for hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) function during both normal hematopoiesis and in stem cell transplantation therapy. We demonstrate that the guidance molecule Robo4 functions to specifically anchor HSCs to BM niches. Robo4-deficient HSCs displayed poor localization to BM niches and drastically reduced long-term reconstitution capability while retaining multilineage potential. Cxcr4, a critical regulator of HSC location, is upregulated in Robo4(-/-) HSCs to compensate for Robo4 loss. Robo4 deletion led to altered HSC mobilization efficiency, revealing that inhibition of both Cxcr4- and Robo4-mediated niche interactions are necessary for efficient HSC mobilization. Surprisingly, we found that WT HSCs express very low levels of Cxcr4 and respond poorly to Cxcr4 manipulation relative to other hematopoietic cells. We conclude that Robo4 cooperates with Cxcr4 to endow HSCs with competitive access to limited stem cell niches, and we propose Robo4 as a therapeutic target in HSC transplantation therapy.

Nucleolar expansion and elevated protein translation in premature aging.

Project description:Premature aging disorders provide an opportunity to study the mechanisms that drive aging. In Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS), a mutant form of the nuclear scaffold protein lamin A distorts nuclei and sequesters nuclear proteins. We sought to investigate protein homeostasis in this disease. Here, we report a widespread increase in protein turnover in HGPS-derived cells compared to normal cells. We determine that global protein synthesis is elevated as a consequence of activated nucleoli and enhanced ribosome biogenesis in HGPS-derived fibroblasts. Depleting normal lamin A or inducing mutant lamin A expression are each sufficient to drive nucleolar expansion. We further show that nucleolar size correlates with donor age in primary fibroblasts derived from healthy individuals and that ribosomal RNA production increases with age, indicating that nucleolar size and activity can serve as aging biomarkers. While limiting ribosome biogenesis extends lifespan in several systems, we show that increased ribosome biogenesis and activity are a hallmark of premature aging.HGPS is a premature aging disease caused by mutations in the nuclear protein lamin A. Here, the authors show that cells from patients with HGPS have expanded nucleoli and increased protein synthesis, and report that nucleoli also expand as aging progresses in cells derived from healthy individuals.

Transcriptome data of bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) with premature aging

Project description:Recent advances have taken advantage of various animal models in HSC aging research, including certain gene mutations, chemicals, and ionizing radiation (IR). To identify the underlying mechanisms and phenotype switching in HSC aging, we employed IR-induced premature HSC aging model and performed RNA-seq of HSCs from the bone marrow (BM) of mice at three months post IR and their age-matched control mice (Ctrl).

ERK1 regulates the hematopoietic stem cell niches.

Project description:The mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) ERK1 and ERK2 are among the major signal transduction molecules but little is known about their specific functions in vivo. ERK activity is provided by two isoforms, ERK1 and ERK2, which are ubiquitously expressed and share activators and substrates. However, there are not in vivo studies which have reported a role for ERK1 or ERK2 in HSCs and the bone marrow microenvironment. The present study shows that the ERK1-deficient mice present a mild osteopetrosis phenotype. The lodging and the homing abilities of the ERK1(-/-) HSC are impaired, suggesting that the ERK1(-/-)-defective environment may affect the engrafment of HSCs. Serial transplantations demonstrate that ERK1 is involved in the maintenance of an appropriate medullar microenvironment, but that the intrinsic properties of HSCs are not altered by the ERK1(-/-) defective microenvironment. Deletion of ERK1 impaired in vitro and in vivo osteoclastogenesis while osteoblasts were unaffected. As osteoclasts derive from precursors of the monocyte/macrophage lineage, investigation of the monocytic compartment was performed. In vivo analysis of the myeloid lineage progenitors revealed that the frequency of CMPs increased by approximately 1.3-fold, while the frequency of GMPs significantly decreased by almost 2-fold, compared with the respective WT compartments. The overall mononuclear-phagocyte lineage development was compromised in these mice due to a reduced expression of the M-CSF receptor on myeloid progenitors. These results show that the cellular targets of ERK1 are M-CSFR-responsive cells, upstream to osteoclasts. While ERK1 is well known to be activated by M-CSF, the present results are the first to point out an ERK1-dependent M-CSFR regulation on hematopoietic progenitors. This study reinforces the hypothesis of an active cross-talk between HSCs, their progeny and bone cells in the maintenance of the homeostasis of these compartments.

Decline in IGF1 in the bone marrow microenvironment initiates hematopoietic stem cell aging.

Project description:Decline in hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) function with age underlies limited health span of our blood and immune systems. In order to preserve health into older age, it is necessary to understand the nature and timing of initiating events that cause HSC aging. By performing a cross-sectional study in mice, we discover that hallmarks of aging in HSCs and hematopoiesis begin to accumulate by middle age and that the bone marrow (BM) microenvironment at middle age induces and is indispensable for hematopoietic aging. Using unbiased approaches, we find that decreased levels of the longevity-associated molecule IGF1 in the local middle-aged BM microenvironment are a factor causing HSC aging. Direct stimulation of middle-aged HSCs with IGF1 rescues molecular and functional hallmarks of aging, including restored mitochondrial activity. Thus, although decline in IGF1 supports longevity, our work indicates that this also compromises HSC function and limits hematopoietic health span.

Single-cell transcriptomics identifies premature aging features of TERC-deficient mouse brain and bone marrow.

Project description:Aging is a progressive loss of physiological function and increased susceptibility to major pathologies. Degenerative diseases in both brain and bone including Alzheimer disease (AD) and osteoporosis are common in aging groups. TERC is RNA component of telomerase, and its deficiency accelerates aging-related phenotypes including impaired life span, organ failure, bone loss, and brain dysfunction. In this study, we investigated the traits of bone marrow-brain cross-tissue communications in young mice, natural aging mice, and premature aging (TERC deficient, TERC-KO) mice by single-cell transcriptome sequencing. Differentially expressed gene analysis of brain as well as bone marrow between premature aging mouse and young mouse demonstrated aging-related inflammatory response and suppression of neuron development. Further analysis of senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) landscape indicated that TERC-KO perturbation was enriched in oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) and hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC). Series of inflammatory associated myeloid cells was activated in premature aging mice brain and bone marrow. Cross-tissue comparison of TERC-KO mice brain and bone marrow illustrated obvious ligand-receptor communications between brain glia cells, macrophages, and bone marrow myeloid cells in premature aging-induced inflammation. Enrichment of co-regulation modules between brain and bone marrow identified premature aging response genes such as Dusp1 and Ifitm3. Our study provides a rich resource for understanding premature aging-associated perturbation in brain and bone marrow and supporting myeloid cells and endothelial cells as promising therapy targeting for age-related brain-bone diseases.

Restoration and reversible expansion of the osteoblastic hematopoietic stem cell niche after marrow radioablation.

Project description:Adequate recovery of hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) niches after cytotoxic conditioning regimens is essential to successful bone marrow transplantation. Yet, very little is known about the mechanisms that drive the restoration of these niches after bone marrow injury. Here we describe a profound disruption of the marrow microenvironment after lethal total body irradiation of mice that leads to the generation of osteoblasts restoring the HSC niche, followed by a transient, reversible expansion of this niche. Within 48 hours after irradiation, surviving host megakaryocytes were observed close to the endosteal surface of trabecular bone rather than in their normal parasinusoidal site concomitant with an increased stromal-derived factor-1 level. A subsequent increase in 2 megakaryocyte-derived growth factors, platelet-derived growth factor-beta and basic fibroblast growth factor, induces a 2-fold expansion of the population of N-cadherin-/osteopontin-positive osteoblasts, relative to the homeostatic osteoblast population, and hence, increases the number of potential niches for HSC engraftment. After donor cell engraftment, this expanded microenvironment reverts to its homeostatic state. Our results demonstrate the rapid recovery of osteoblastic stem cell niches after marrow radioablation, provide critical insights into the associated mechanisms, and suggest novel means to manipulate the bone marrow microenvironment to promote HSC engraftment.

Adrenergic nerve degeneration in bone marrow drives aging of the hematopoietic stem cell niche.

Project description:Aging of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) is associated with a decline in their regenerative capacity and multilineage differentiation potential, contributing to the development of blood disorders. The bone marrow microenvironment has recently been suggested to influence HSC aging, but the underlying mechanisms remain largely unknown. Here we show that HSC aging critically depends on bone marrow innervation by the sympathetic nervous system (SNS), as loss of SNS nerves or adrenoreceptor ?3 signaling in the bone marrow microenvironment of young mice led to premature HSC aging, as evidenced by appearance of HSC phenotypes reminiscent of physiological aging. Strikingly, supplementation of a sympathomimetic acting selectively on adrenoreceptor ?3 to old mice significantly rejuvenated the in vivo function of aged HSCs, suggesting that the preservation or restitution of bone marrow SNS innervation during aging may hold the potential for new HSC rejuvenation strategies.

Mesenchymal stem cells derived from patients with premature aging syndromes display hallmarks of physiological aging.

Project description:Progeroid syndromes are rare genetic diseases with most of autosomal dominant transmission, the prevalence of which is less than 1/10,000,000. These syndromes caused by mutations in the <i>LMNA</i> gene encoding A-type lamins belong to a group of disorders called laminopathies. Lamins are implicated in the architecture and function of the nucleus and chromatin. Patients affected with progeroid laminopathies display accelerated aging of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)-derived tissues associated with nuclear morphological abnormalities. To identify pathways altered in progeroid patients' MSCs, we used induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) from patients affected with classical Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS, c.1824C&gt;T-p.G608G), HGPS-like syndrome (HGPS-L; c.1868C&gt;G-p.T623S) associated with farnesylated prelamin A accumulation, or atypical progeroid syndromes (APS; homozygous c.1583C&gt; T-p.T528M; heterozygous c.1762T&gt;C-p.C588R; compound heterozygous c.1583C&gt;T and c.1619T&gt;C-p.T528M and p.M540T) without progerin accumulation. By comparative analysis of the transcriptome and methylome of hiPSC-derived MSCs, we found that patient's MSCs display specific DNA methylation patterns and modulated transcription at early stages of differentiation. We further explored selected biological processes deregulated in the presence of <i>LMNA</i> variants and confirmed alterations of age-related pathways during MSC differentiation. In particular, we report the presence of an altered mitochondrial pattern; an increased response to double-strand DNA damage; and telomere erosion in HGPS, HGPS-L, and APS MSCs, suggesting converging pathways, independent of progerin accumulation, but a distinct DNA methylation profile in HGPS and HGPS-L compared with APS cells.

Accumulating mitochondrial DNA mutations drive premature hematopoietic aging phenotypes molecularly distinct from physiologic stem cell aging

Project description:Somatic stem cells mediate tissue maintenance for the lifetime of an organism. Despite the well-established longevity that is a prerequisite for such function, accumulating data argue for compromised stem cell function with age. Identifying the mechanisms underlying age-dependent stem cell dysfunction is therefore key to understand the aging process. Using a model that carries a proofreading defective mitochondrial DNA polymerase, we demonstrate hematopoietic defects reminiscent of premature HSC aging including anemia, lymphopenia and myeloid lineage skewing. However, in contrast to physiologic stem cell aging, rapidly accumulating mitochondrial DNA mutations displayed little involvement of the hematopoietic stem cell pool but rather with distinct differentiation blocks and/or disappearance of downstream progenitors. Hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) has been sorted out from midaged wildtype and mutator mice and compared with stem cells sorted from young and and old wt mice
