Erythro-myeloid progenitors contribute endothelial cells to developing blood vessels

ABSTRACT: The earliest blood vessels in the mammalian embryo are formed when endothelial cells (ECs) differentiate from angioblasts and coalesce into tubular networks. Thereafter, the en-dothelium is thought to expand solely by proliferation of pre-existing ECs. Here we show that the earliest precursors of erythrocytes, megakaryocytes and macrophages, the yolk sac-derived erythro-myeloid progenitors (EMPs), provide a complementary source of ECs that are recruited into pre-existing vasculature. Whereas a first wave of yolk sac-resident EMPs contributes ECs to the yolk sac endothelium, a second wave of EMPs colonises the embryo and contributes ECs to intraembryonic endothelium in multiple organs, where they persist into adulthood. By demonstrating that EMPs constitute a hitherto unrecognised source of ECs, we reveal that embryonic blood vascular endothelium expands in a dual mechanism that involves both the proliferation of pre-existing ECs and the incorporation of ECs derived from hematopoietic precursors.

HLA-DR is absent in primitive macrophages through epigenetic silencing of master regulator CIITA

Project description:The earliest macrophages are generated during embryonic development from erythro-myeloid progenitors (EMPs) via primitive haematopoiesis. This process is poorly understood in humans and in the mouse is thought to be spatially restricted to the yolk sac. Human fetal placental macrophages, Hofbauer cells (HBC), arise during the primitive haematopoietic wave at ~18 days post conception. Here we identify a population of placental erythro-myeloid progenitors (PEMPs) in the early human placenta that give rise to HBC. PEMP are fetal CD34+CD43+ progenitors found exclusively at early gestational timepoints. Transcriptomic analyses reveal that PEMP have conserved features of primitive yolk sac EMPs, including the lack of HLF expression. Using in vitro single-cell culture experiments we show that PEMP generate HBC-like cells that completely lack HLA-DR expression and demonstrate that this is a conserved feature of all macrophages generated by primitive haematopoiesis in humans. Finally, we demonstrate that the class II transactivator, CTIIA, the master regulator HLA-DR expression, is epigenetically silenced during primitive haematopoiesis, leading to HLA-DRneg macrophages. These findings demonstrate that HBC are derived locally from PEMP and establish the human placenta as an additional site of primitive haematopoiesis.

Human yolk sac-like haematopoiesis generates RUNX1-, GFI1- and/or GFI1B-dependent blood and SOX17-positive endothelium

Project description:The genetic regulatory network controlling early fate choices during human blood cell development are not well understood. We use human pluripotent stem cell reporter lines to track the development of endothelial and haematopoietic populations in an in vitro model of human yolk-sac development. We identified SOX17-CD34+CD43- endothelial cells at day 2 of blast colony development, as a haemangioblast-like branch point from which SOX17-CD34+CD43+ blood cells and SOX17+CD34+CD43- endothelium subsequently arose. Most human blood cell development was dependent on RUNX1. Deletion of RUNX1 only permitted a single wave of yolk sac-like primitive erythropoiesis, but no yolk sac myelopoiesis or aorta-gonad-mesonephros (AGM)-like haematopoiesis. Blocking GFI1/1B activity with a small molecule inhibitor abrogated all blood cell development, even in cell lines with an intact RUNX1 gene. Together, our data defines the hierarchical requirements for both RUNX1 and GFI1/1B during early human haematopoiesis arising from a yolk sac-like SOX17- haemogenic endothelial intermediate.

Ezh2 is essential for the generation of functional yolk sac derived erythro-myeloid progenitor [CUT&RUN]

Project description:Yolk sac (YS) hematopoiesis is critical for the survival of the embryo and a major source of tissue-resident macrophages that persist into adulthood. Here we report that the epigenetic regulator Ezh2 is essential for YS hematopoiesis but dispensable for subsequent aorta–gonad–mesonephros (AGM) blood development. Loss of Ezh2 activity in hemogenic endothelium (HE) leads to the generation of phenotypically intact but functionally deficient erythro-myeloid progenitors (EMP). Ezh2 activity is critical at the onset of the endothelial-to-hematopoietic transition generating EMPs but rapidly dispensable after that. We identified a lack of downregulation of Wnt signaling as the primary reason in the generation of non-functional EMPs. Together, our findings demonstrate a critical and specific role of Ezh2 in modulating Wnt signaling during the generation of EMPs from YS HE.

A trio of bipotent precursors seeds the mesenchymal, haematopoietic, and endothelial lineages of the yolk sac

Project description:During embryogenesis, haematopoietic and endothelial lineages emerge closely in time and space. It is thought that the first blood and endothelium derive from a common clonal ancestor, the haemangioblast. However, investigation of candidate haemangioblasts in vitro has revealed a mesenchymal differentiation potential, a feature more compatible with an earlier mesodermal precursor. To date, no evidence for an in vivo haemangioblast has been discovered. Using single cell RNA-Sequencing and in vivo cellular barcoding, we have unraveled the ancestral relationships that give rise to the haematopoietic lineages of the yolk sac, the endothelium, and the mesenchyme. We show that the mesodermal derivatives of the yolk sac are produced by three distinct bipotential precursors: the haemangioblast, mesenchymoangioblast, and a novel cell type: the haematomesoblast. Between E6.5 and E7.5, this trio of precursors seeds haematopoietic, endothelial, and mesenchymal trajectories.

In vivo clonal tracking reveals evidence of haemangioblast and haematomesoblast contribution to yolk sac haematopoiesis

Project description:During embryogenesis, haematopoietic and endothelial lineages emerge closely in time and space. It is thought that the first blood and endothelium derive from a common clonal ancestor, the haemangioblast. However, investigation of candidate haemangioblasts in vitro revealed the capacity for mesenchymal differentiation, a feature more compatible with an earlier mesodermal precursor. To date, no evidence for an in vivo haemangioblast has been discovered. Using single cell RNA-Sequencing and in vivo cellular barcoding, we have unraveled the ancestral relationships that give rise to the haematopoietic lineages of the yolk sac, the endothelium, and the mesenchyme. We show that the mesodermal derivatives of the yolk sac are produced by three distinct precursors with dual-lineage outcomes: the haemangioblast, the mesenchymoangioblast, and a previously undescribed cell type: the haematomesoblast. Between E5.5 and E7.5, this trio of precursors seeds haematopoietic, endothelial, and mesenchymal trajectories.

Single-cell RNA-seq (10x Chromium) of FACS-sorted drl:H2B-Dendra2, etv2:Kaede, fli1:DsRed, and tp1:eGFP transgenic zebrafish embryos

Project description:Development of the dorsal aorta is a key step in the establishment of the adult blood-forming system, since hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) arise from ventral aortic endothelium in all vertebrate animals studied. Work in zebrafish has demonstrated that arterial and venous endothelial precursors arise from distinct subsets of lateral plate mesoderm. Here, we profile the transcriptome of the earliest detectable endothelial cells (ECs) during zebrafish embryogenesis to demonstrate that tissue-specific EC programs initiate much earlier than previously appreciated, by the end of gastrulation. Classic studies in the chick embryo showed that paraxial mesoderm generates a subset of somite-derived endothelial cells (SDECs) that incorporate into the dorsal aorta to replace HSPCs as they exit the aorta and enter circulation. We describe a conserved program in the zebrafish, where a rare population of endothelial precursors delaminates from the dermomyotome to incorporate exclusively into the developing dorsal aorta. Whereas SDECs lack hematopoietic potential, they act as a local niche to support the emergence of HSPCs from neighboring hemogenic endothelium. Thus, at least three subsets of ECs contribute to the developing dorsal aorta: vascular ECs, hemogenic ECs, and SDECs. Taken together, our findings indicate that the distinct spatial origins of endothelial precursors dictate different cellular potentials within the developing dorsal aorta.
