Project description:Normal donors BM CD34+ cells were differentiated in thrombopoietin-treated liquid suspension cultures. Briefly, CD34+ cells (80,000 /mL) were resuspended in a serum-free medium in the presence of 100 ng/mL of human recombinant thrombopoietin (TPO; Genzyme, Boston, MA). Every 3 days, viable cells were scored by Trypan blue dye exclusion and cultures were amplified with fresh serum-free medium. Each well was then supplemented with 100 ng/mL TPO. After 14 to 16 days of liquid culture, CD34-derived megakaryocytes (MKs) were purified by means of an anti-CD41a monoclonal antibody (MoAb) (Dako, Milan, Italy) directed against the glycoproteic *IIb-*3 complex and immunobeads (MPC 450 Dynabeads; Dynal, Oslo, Norway), as previously described (27). The purity of MKs was determined for each isolation by indirect immunofluorescence, using an anti-CD41b MoAb which reacts with a different epitope of *IIb-*3 subunit (Immunotech Inc., Westbrook, ME), followed by a goat anti-mouse IgG, covalently linked to fluorescein (Becton Dickinson, San Jose, CA).

Project description:Characterize the genes regulated by MKL1/SRF complex in human megakaryocytes (MKs) derived from cord blood or cytapheresis : Using a knock down approach by small interference of MKL1 in MK progenitors, we observed a decrease in the percentage of cells with actin polymerization after adhesion on various substrates, an increase of mean ploidy level and apoptosis. Furthermore, MKL1 inhibition induced a major defect in pro-platelet formation and MKs migration. These results clearly demonstrate that MKL1 is involved in the cytoskeleton organization and maturation of MKs as well as in platelet formation. The goal of gene profiling was to identify new potential MKL1/SRF targets the expression level of which was down regulated after MKL1 inhibition: Human CD34+ cells isolated from cord blood or cytapheresis were transduced by a control lentivirus (designed as SCR; scramble) or by the lentivirus encoding for shRNA of MKL1 (designed as shMKL1) both containing a GFP expressed under the control of PGK promoter. The cells were than grown in serum free medium supplemented by thrombopoietin leading to a generation of megakaryocytes. At day 9 of culture (80% of MKs), the GFP positive cells were sorted, RNAs were extracted and submitted to hybridization as described in annex protocols. Two lists of genes (one for cord blood samples and one for cytapheresis samples) deregulated after the repression of MKL1 were done comparing the intensity of hybridization between SCR and shMKL1 samples. The common list of genes deregulated in MKs from cord blood and cytapheresis after the repression of MKL1 was than generated.

Project description:Primary myelofibrosis (PMF) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm prone to leukemic transformation, for which limited treatment is available. Amongst individuals diagnosed with PMF, the most prevalent mutation is the JAK2V617F somatic point mutation that activates the Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) enzyme. Our earlier reports on hyperactivity of β1 integrin and enhanced adhesion activity of the α2β1 complex in JAK2V617F megakaryocytes (MKs) led us to examine the new hypothesis that this mutation leads to post-translational modification via changes in glycosylation. Samples were derived from immunoprecipitation of MKs obtained from Vav1-hJAK2V617F and wild type mice. Immunoprecipitated fractions were separated by SDS-PAGE and analyzed using LC-MS/MS techniques in a bottom-up glycoproteomics workflow. In the immunoprecipitate, glycopeptiforms corresponding to 11 out of the 12 potential N-glycosylation sites of integrin β1, and to all nine potential glycosylation sites of integrin α2, were observed. Glycopeptiforms were compared across WT and JAK2V617F phenotypes for both integrins. The overall trend observed is that JAK2V617F mutation in PMF MKs leads to changes in β1 glycosylation; in most cases, it results in an increase in the integrated area of glycopeptiforms. We also observed that, in mutated MKs, changes in integrin α2 glycosylation were more substantial than those observed for integrin β1 glycosylation, a finding that suggests that altered integrin α2 glycosylation may also affect activation. Additionally, the identification of proteins associated to the cytoskeleton that were co-immunoprecipitated with integrins α2 and β1 demonstrated the potential of the methodology employed in this study to provide some insight, at the peptide level, into the consequences of integrin activation in MKs. The extensive and detailed glycosylation patterns we uncovered provide a basis for future functional studies of each site in control cells as compared to JAK2V617F mutated cells.

Project description:d9 and d12 Mks were either cultured statically or subjected to shear flow for 30 min; at d9, half the Mks were placed back in culture for 30 min (60 min time point) Megakaryocytes (Mks) are exposed to shear flow as they migrate from the bone marrow hematopoietic compartment into circulation thus releasing platelets and pro/preplatelets directly into the blood stream. Shear forces have been now established as promoting Mk maturation and platelet biogenesis. In order to understand the underlying mechanisms that modulate the response of Mks to shear forces, we carried out transcriptional analysis on immature and mature stem cell-derived Mks that were exposed to physiologically-relevant shear (2.5 dyn/cm2). In immature (d9) Mks, shear exposure upregulated genes related to growth and Mk maturation, while in mature (d12) Mks, it upregulated genes involved in apoptosis and intracellular transport. Following shear-flow exposure, 6 AP-1 transcripts (ATF4, JUNB, JUN, FOSB, FOS, and JUND) were upregulated at d9 and two AP-1 proteins (JunD and c-Fos) were upregulated both at d9 and d12. Our data show that MAPK signaling is linked to both the shear-stress response and AP-1 upregulation. JNK phosphorylation increased significantly following shear stimulation, while JNK inhibition reduced shear-induced JunD protein expression. Although p38 phosphorylation did not increase following shear flow, its inhibition reduced shear-induced JunD and c-Fos protein expression. JNK inhibition reduced fibrinogen binding of d9 and d12 platelet-like particle s (PLPs) and P-selectin expression at d12 PLPs, while p38 inhibition reduced fibrinogen binding of d12 PLPs. Here we show that mechanotransduction of shear forces in Mks results in JNK activation, AP-1 upregulation, and downstream transcriptional changes that promote maturation of immature Mks and platelet biogenesis in mature Mks. Two- and Three-condition experiment (flow vs. static culture condition, d9 vs. d12, and 30 min vs. 60 min at d9); Biological replicates: 3; Technical replicates: 1 (dye-swap)

Project description:Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a common platelet disorder in pediatric patients. Pediatric and adult ITP have been associated with sialic acid alterations, but the pathophysiology of ITP remains elusive, and ITP is often a diagnosis of exclusion. Our analysis of pediatric ITP plasma samples showed increased anti-Thomsen-Friedenreich antigen (TF-antigen) antibody representation, suggesting increased exposure of the typically sialylated and cryptic TF-antigen in these patients. The O-glycan sialyltransferase St3gal1 add sialic acid specifically on the TF-antigen. To understand if TF-antigen exposure associates with thrombocytopenia, we generated a mouse model with targeted deletion of St3gal1 in megakaryocytes (MK) (St3gal1MK-/-). TF-antigen exposure was restricted to MKs and resulted in thrombocytopenia. Deletion of Jak3 in St3gal1MK-/- mice normalized platelet counts implicating involvement of immune cells. Interferon-producing Siglec H-positive bone marrow (BM) immune cells engaged with O-glycan sialic acid moieties to regulate type I interferon (IFN-I) secretion and platelet release (thrombopoiesis), as evidenced by partially normalized platelet count following and inhibition of interferon and Siglec H receptors. Single cell RNAseq determined that TF-antigen exposure by MKs primed St3gal1MK-/- BM immune cells to release IFN-I. Single cell RNAseq further revealed a new population of immune cells with a plasmacytoid dendritic cell (pDC)-like signature and concomitant upregulation of immunoglobulin re-arrangement gene transcripts Igkc and Ighm, suggesting additional immune regulatory mechanisms. Thus, aberrant TF-antigen moieties, often found in pathological conditions, regulate immune cells and thrombopoiesis in the BM, leading to reduced platelet count.

Project description:Platelet homeostasis is essential for vascular integrity and immune defense. While the process of platelet formation by fragmenting megakaryocytes (thrombopoiesis) has been extensively studied, the cellular and molecular mechanisms required to constantly replenish the pool of megakaryocytes (MKs) by their progenitor cells (megakaryopoiesis) remains unclear. Here we use intravital imaging to track the cellular dynamics of megakaryopoiesis over days. We identify plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) as homeostatic sensors that monitor the bone marrow for apoptotic MKs and deliver IFN- to the MK niche triggering local on-demand proliferation and maturation of MK progenitors. This fine-tuned coordination between thrombopoiesis and megakaryopoiesis is crucial for MK and platelet homeostasis in steady state and stress. However, excessive activation of pDCs, such as by viral infections, can disturb this homeostatic circuit. Accordingly, we show that pDCs activated by SARS-CoV2 drive inappropriate megakaryopoiesis. Together, we uncover a hitherto unknown pDC-dependent homeostatic circuit that involves innate immune sensing and demand-adapted release of inflammatory mediators to maintain tissue homeostasis of the megakaryocytic lineage.

Project description:The role of ABCC4, an ATP-binding cassette transporter, in the process of platelet formation, megakaryopoiesis, is unknown. Here, we show that ABCC4 is highly expressed in megakaryocytes (MKs). Mining of public genomic data (ATAC-seq and genome wide chromatin interactions, Hi-C) revealed that key megakaryopoiesis transcription factors (TFs) interacted with ABCC4 regulatory elements and likely accounted for high ABCC4 expression in MKs. Importantly these genomic interactions for ABCC4 ranked higher than for genes with known roles in megakaryopoiesis suggesting a role for ABCC4 in megakaryopoiesis. We then demonstrate that ABCC4 is required for optimal platelet formation as in vitro differentiation of fetal liver derived MKs from Abcc4-/- mice exhibited impaired proplatelet formation and polyploidization, features required for optimal megakaryopoiesis. Likewise, a human megakaryoblastic cell line, MEG-01 showed that acute ABCC4 inhibition markedly suppressed key processes in megakaryopoiesis and that these effects were related to reduced cAMP export and enhanced dissociation of a negative regulator of megakaryopoiesis, protein kinase A (PKA) from ABCC4. PKA activity concomitantly increased after ABCC4 inhibition which was coupled with significantly reduced GATA-1 expression, a TF needed for optimal megakaryopoiesis. Further, ABCC4 protected MKs from 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) as Abcc4-/- mice show a profound reduction in MKs after 6-MP treatment. In total, our studies show that ABCC4 not only protects the MKs but is also required for maximal platelet production from MKs, suggesting modulation of ABCC4 function might be a potential therapeutic strategy to regulate platelet production.
