Project description:Plasmacytoid dendritic cells develop from Ly6D+ lymphoid progenitors distinct from the myeloid lineage

Project description:Plasmacytoid and conventional dendritic cells (pDC, and cDC) are generated from distinct lymphoid and myeloid progenitor cells in murine bone marrow. Despite the early separation of pDC and cDC lineages, CD11c+ MHCII-/lo Siglec-H+ CCR9lo pDC-like precursor cells are able to differentiate into both pDC and cDC. Single-cell transcriptomics and high-dimensional flow cytometry combined with cell fate analysis revealed the heterogeneity and commitment of subsets in this compartment. While Ly6D– cells within this fraction were cDC-committed and B220hi Ly6Dhi Zbtb46– cells were immediate precursors of pDCs, B220lo Ly6Dhi Zbtb46– cells still had the potential to generate cDCs in addition to pDCs. Transition to cDCs occurred via an intermediary stage marked by coexpression of Siglec-H, Ly6D and Zbtb46. Type I IFN stimulation limited cDC and promoted pDC output from these precursors, demonstrating their plasticity in response to inflammation. Thus, flexibility to divert to cDCs is retained in the pDC lineage at later differentiation stages.

Project description:We performed gene expression microarray comparing Ly6D- CLPs isolated from OcnCre;iDTR control and mutant mice by flow cytometry. Ly6D- CLPs were isolated from the bone marrow of OcnCre;iDTR control or mutant mice by flow cytometry and subjected to Affymetrix microarray comparison of gene expression. Markers used to define Ly6D- CLP by flow cytometry was: LineageLo, cKit+, Sca+, CD127+, Thy1.2-, Ly6D-

Project description:Dendritic cells (DCs), including conventional DCs (cDCs) and plasmacytoid DCs (pDCs) are critical for initiating and controlling the immune response. However, study of DC, particularly pDC, function is hampered by their low frequency in lymphoid organs, and existing methods for in vitro DC generation preferentially favor the production of cDCs over pDCs. Here, we demonstrated that pDCs could be efficiently generated in vitro from common lymphoid progenitors (CLPs) using Flt3 ligand (FL) in three different culture systems, namely feeder-free, BM-feeder and AC-6-feeder. This was in stark contrast to common DC progenitors (CDPs), in which cDCs were prominently generated under the same conditions. Moreover, the efficiency and function of pDCs generated from these three systems varied. While AC-6 system showed the greatest ability to support pDC development from CLPs, BM-feeder system was able to develop pDCs with better functionality. pDCs could also be expanded in vivo using hydrodynamic gene transfer of FL, which was further enhanced by the combined treatment of FL and IFN-α. Interestingly, IFN-α selectively promoted the proliferation of CLPs and not CDPs, which might contribute to enhanced pDC development. Together, we have defined conditions for in vitro and in vivo generation of pDCs, which may be useful for investigating the biology of pDCs.

Project description:Growth factor independence genes (Gfi1 and Gfi1b) repress recombination activating genes (Rag) transcription in developing B lymphocytes. Because all blood lineages originate from hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and different lineage progenitors have been shown to share transcription factor networks prior to cell fate commitment, we hypothesized that GFI family proteins may also play a role in repressing Rag transcription or a global lymphoid transcriptional program in other blood lineages. We tested the level of Rag transcription in various blood cells when Gfi1 and Gfi1b were deleted, and observed an upregulation of Rag expression in plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs). Using microarray analysis, we observed that Gfi1 and Gfi1b regulate a broad spectrum of cellular processes in pDCs, but not a lymphoid specific transcriptional program. This study establishes a role for Gfi1 and Gfi1b in Rag regulation in a non-B lineage cell type Gfi1f/f; Gfi1bf/f; ERCre bone marrow progenitors were untreated and treated with tamoxifen (4OHT) to delete floxed alleles during pDC differentiation in culture. Cells from three individual mouse constitute triplicates of untreated (-4OHT) and treated (+4OHT) conditions, corresponding to wildtype or knockout genotypes.

Project description:During infections and inflammation, plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) are the most potent type I interferon (IFN-I)-producing cells. However, the developmental origin of pDCs and the signals dictating pDC generation remain incompletely understood. Here, we report a synergistic role for IFN-I and Flt3 ligand (FL) in pDC development from common lymphoid progenitors (CLPs). Both conventional DCs (cDCs) and pDCs were generated from CLPs in response to FL, whereas pDC generation required higher concentrations of FL and concurrent IFN-I signaling. An absence of IFN-I receptor, impairment of IFN-I signaling, or neutralization of IFN-I significantly impeded pDC development from CLPs. Furthermore, FL induced IFN-I expression in CLPs, which in turn induced Flt3 up-regulation that facilitated survival and proliferation of CLPs, as well as their differentiation into pDCs. Collectively, these results define a critical role for the FL/IFN-I/Flt3 axis in pDC differentiation from CLPs.

Project description:To elucidate the transcriptional ‘landscape’ that regulates human lymphoid commitment during postnatal life, we used RNA sequencing to assemble the long non-coding transcriptome across human bone marrow and thymic progenitor cells spanning the earliest stages of B lymphoid and T lymphoid specification. Over 3,000 genes encoding previously unknown long non-coding RNA (lncRNAs) were revealed through the analysis of these rare populations. Lymphoid commitment was characterized by lncRNA expression patterns that were highly stage specific and were more lineage specific than those of protein-coding genes. Protein-coding genes co-expressed with neighboring lncRNA genes showed enrichment for ontologies related to lymphoid differentiation. The exquisite cell-type specificity of global lncRNA expression patterns independently revealed new developmental relationships among the earliest progenitor cells in the human bone marrow and thymus.

Project description:Dendritic cells (DCs) are essential regulators of immune responses; however, transcriptional mechanisms establishing DC lineage commitment are poorly defined. Here we report that the PU.1 transcription factor induces specific remodeling of the higher-order chromatin structure at the Interferon Regulatory Factor-8 (Irf8) gene to initiate DC fate choice. Generation of an Irf8 reporter mouse enabled us to pinpoint an initial progenitor stage at which DCs separate from other myeloid lineages in the bone marrow. In the absence of Irf8, this progenitor undergoes DC-to-neutrophil reprogramming, indicating that DC commitment requires an active, Irf8-dependent escape from alternative myeloid lineage potential. Mechanistically, myeloid Irf8 expression depends on high PU.1 levels, resulting in local chromosomal looping and activation of a lineage- and developmental stage-specific cis-enhancer. These data delineate PU.1 as a concentration-dependent rheostat of myeloid lineage selection by controlling long-distance contacts between regulatory elements, and suggest that specific higher-order chromatin remodeling at the Irf8 gene determines DC differentiation.
