Transcriptional comparison of in vitro and in vivo generated human dendritic cells

ABSTRACT: Classical dendritic cells (cDCs) are rare sentinel cells specialized in the regulation of adaptive immunity. Modelling cDC development is both crucial to study cDCs and harness their potential in immunotherapy. Here we present a novel in vitro differentiation approach using cord blood CD34+ hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) co-cultured with bone marrow-derived murine mesenchymal cell line (MS5) engineered to express human FLT3L, SCF and CXCL12 (MS5_FS12). We also show that the engraftment of engineered mesenchymal stromal cells (MS5_FS12) together with CD34+ HSPCs creates an in vivo synthetic niche in the dermis of immunodeficient mice driving the differentiation of cDCs and CD123+AXL+CD327+ pre/AS-DCs. This approach provides a unique platform recapitulating the full spectrum of cDC subsets enabling their functional characterization in vivo.

Project description:At the molecular level, the mechanisms of action of Hox genes during hematopoiesis remain elusive. Although reports have described the implication of Hox genes in some molecular pathways in mice, the targets of HOX proteins in human hematopoietic cells are mostly unidentified. Since HOXB4 and HOXC4 are transcription factors encoded by paralogous genes that display similar effects on HSCs and progenitors, we presumed that HOXB4 and HOXC4 regulate the same target genes during human HSC expansion. This hypothesis was supported by the fact that HOXB4 and HOXC4 have similar molecular structure and similar roles and expression patterns during development. To identify early factors and signaling pathways involved in hematopoietic cell expansion consecutive to the action of HOXB4 or HOXC4, we performed a differential transcriptome analysis of RNAs from cord blood-derived CD34+ cells cultured for 24 hours in the presence of MS-5 cells engineered to secrete HOXB4 or HOXC4 proteins. MS-5/GFP cells were used as control in separate co-cultures to exclude nonspecific changes in gene expression that may be associated with the presence of lentivirus-transduced MS-5 cells. Human CD34+ cord blood (4.106) cells were co-cultured for 24 hours with irradiated EGFP-, HOXB4-, or HOXC4-transduced MS-5 cells. 12 arrays were analysed. Three competitive hybridizations to the arrays were performed in duplicate using each time two dye-swap following this experimental design: AVZ056 : CY5 (CD34+/MS5+HOXB4) / CY3 (CD34+/MS5+GFP) AVZ059 : CY5 (CD34+/MS5+GFP) / CY3 (CD34+/MS5+HOXB4) AVZ064 : CY5 (CD34+/MS5+GFP) / CY3 (CD34+/MS5+HOXB4) AVZ067 : CY5 (CD34+/MS5+HOXB4) / CY3 (CD34+/MS5+GFP) AVZ057 : CY5 (CD34+/MS5+GFP) / CY3 (CD34+/MS5+HOXC4) AVZ058 : CY5 (CD34+/MS5+HOXC4) / CY3 (CD34+/MS5+GFP) AVZ060 : CY5 (CD34+/MS5+HOXC4) / CY3 (CD34+/MS5+GFP) AVZ068 : CY5 (CD34+/MS5+GFP) / CY3 (CD34+/MS5+HOXC4) AVZ061 : CY5 (CD34+/MS5+HOXB4) / CY3 (CD34+/MS5+HOXC4) AVZ062 : CY5 (CD34+/MS5+HOXC4) / CY3 (CD34+/MS5+HOXB4) AVZ065 : CY5 (CD34+/MS5+HOXC4) / CY3 (CD34+/MS5+HOXB4) AVZ066 : CY5 (CD34+/MS5+HOXB4) / CY3 (CD34+/MS5+HOXC4)
