Project description:Leptin receptor (LEPR) identifies a subpopulation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) with high repopulating potential. In this study, we demonstrated that LEPR-expressing HSCs while exhibiting significantly higher engrafting potential and self-renewing capacity in young mice showed early age-associated decline in these functions as compared to the LEPR- HSCs. LEPR+ HSCs have transcriptomic profiles significantly different from LEPR- HSCs in young mouse bone marrow, but middle-aged HSCs do not have distinct transcriptomic profiles based on LEPR status. The age-related phenotypes were associated with a proinflammatory transcriptomic profile at baseline in young LEPR+ HSCs, which was further exacerbated by age. In contrast, LEPR- HSCs did not show age-associated functional impairment at the ages tested. This suggested that subsets of HSCs are susceptible to age-related decline in function at varying ages and that LEPR+ HSCs are a potential target for early cellular therapeutic interventions in delaying the detrimental effects of aging in hematopoiesis.

Project description:Loss of Phf6 prevents the functional decline and immunophenotypic changes associated with age-related, long-term repopulating hematopoietic stem cell (LT-HSC) exhaustion. To identify the underlying molecular mechanisms that account for these differences, we performed RNA-seq profiling of LT-HSCs isolated from the bone marrow of Phf6 wild-type and knock-out, young (16-week-old) and aged (24-month-old) C57BL/6 mice. Our analysis revealed that LT-HSCs isolated from 24-month-old, Phf6 knockout mice retained the molecular signatures associated with young LT-HSCs whereas LT-HSCs isolated from aged, Phf6 wild-type mice acquired signatures consistent with HSC exhaustion. Mechanistically, these data revealed important roles for key metabolic pathways including glutathione metabolism and sterol biosynthesis, as well as cell-cell interaction and signaling pathways such as the interferon and TGF-beta responses.

Project description:Purpose: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutionized systems-based analysis of cellular pathways. To determine the molecular mechanism of severe cytopenia in NHD13+ Tg mice, we purified Lin-Sca-1+c-Kit+CD34-Flt3-CD150+ HSCs from WT and NHD13+Tg mice at 4 month of age and perform the RNA-seq analysis. Methods: Trizol was used to extract RNA from FACS sorted CD150+CD34–Flt3–LSK viable cells. Total RNA was used for quality controls and for normalization of starting material. cDNA-libraries were generated with 10 ng of total RNA using the SMARTer Ultra Low RNA Kit for Illumina Sequencing according to the manufacturer’s indications. Sequencing was done using the Illumina Next-Gen Sequencing HiSeq platform with 30-45 million 75bp, paired-end reads. Results: We found 597 genes with significantly differential expression in NHD13+ HSCs, compared to WT controls (p<0.001). The expression of NUP98-HOXD13 up-regulated the expression of HOX genes, including Hoxa3, Hoxa5, Hoxa7, Hoxa9, Hoxb6, Hoxc5, Hoxc6, Hoxc8, Hoxc9 and Hoxd3, the important myeloid transcription factor Pbx3, cell cycle regulators, Cdk6 and Cdc25C, as well as the transcripts encoding the Ly6d surface membrane protein. We then performed pathway analyses, which showed that DNA duplication, DNA damage response and cell cycle-related genes, were more highly expressed in NHD13+ HSCs than WT HSCs, while multiple metabolic process-related gene pathways were downregulated. Conclusions: Our analyses demonstrate that the gene expression signature defined in murine NHD13+ MDS HSCs displays robust similarities with the gene expression profiles of human MDS cells, strongly suggesting that this murine MDS model can be used to accurately model human MDS.

Project description:Aging leads to a decline in function of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and increases susceptibility to hematological disease. We found CD61 to be highly expressed in aged HSCs. Here we investigate the role of CD61 in identifying distinct subpopulations of aged HSCs and assess how expression of CD61 affects stem cell function. We show that HSCs with high expression of CD61 are functionality superior and retain self-renewal capacity in serial transplantations. A population of aged HSCs with highest CD61 expression is functionally comparable to young HSCs. These CD61High HSCs display a notably higher quiescence compared to their CD61Low counterparts. We also show that CD61High and CD61Low HSCs are transcriptomically distinct populations within aged HSCs. Collectively, our research identifies CD61 as a key player in maintaining stem cell quiescence during aging, ensuring the preservation of their functional integrity and potential. Moreover, CD61 emerges as a marker to prospectively isolate a superior, highly dormant population of young and aged HSCs, making it a valuable tool both in fundamental and clinical research.

Project description:Aged hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) exhibit compromised reconstitution capacity and differentiation-bias towards myeloid lineage. However, the molecular mechanism behind it remains not fully understood. In this study, we evaluated the expression of 5 pseudouridine (Ψ) synthases between young and aged HSCs, and observed that three of them are increased during aging. Functional evaluation assay reveals that enforced PUS10 and PUS7 recapitulate the phenotype aged HSCs. The increase of PUS10 in aged HSCs is due to aging-declined CRL4DCAF1-mediated ubiquitination degradation signaling. Mechanistically, the destructive role of enforced PUS10 on HSCs is not achieved by its Ψ synthases activity, but through miR139, dysfunction of which impairs the reconstitution capacity of HSCs. Consistently, we observed no difference of tRNA pseudouridylation profile between young and aged HSPCs, while enforced PUS10 alters the microRNA profile in HSCs. Targeted dysfunction of Pus10 results in compromises the self-renewal capacity of HSC.
