Project description:Hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) are required to establish and maintain the adult blood system in vertebrates. During development, HPSCs are generated from hemogenic endothelial cells that undergo an endothelial-to-hematopoietic transition (EHT). Growth factors and epigenetic changes can promote EHT, but these mechanisms do not explain its tight spatiotemporal regulation during development. Here, we show that microRNA (miR) miR-223-mediated regulation of N-glycan biosynthesis intrinsically restrains EHT, representing a new pathway that prevents excessive HSPC production. We find that miR-223 is uniquely expressed in hemogenic endothelial cells undergoing EHT and in nascent HSPCs. Loss of miR-223 promotes the expansion of these cells in the zebrafish and mouse aorta-gonad-mesonephros (AGM), where EHT occurs. miR-223 targets alg2 (alpha 1,3/ 1,6 mannosyltransferase) in the AGM endothelium to restrict hemogenic and HSPC specification. This enzyme is involved in the attachment of the N-glycans, a common co-translational modification9-12 that influences several pathophysiological processes, but has not yet been implicated in EHT. Using an N-glycosensor, we demonstrate that abundant protein N-glycan attachment occurs in vascular cells during EHT, and this process is required for HSPC production. High-throughput glycome analysis upon loss of miR-223 revealed that terminal alpha 1,3/6 mannose modifications are increased at the expense of alpha 2,3/6 sialic acid sugars. Importantly, pharmacological manipulation targeting these N-glycan types in wild-type embryos phenocopies the loss of miR-223 and enhances EHT as well as HSPC production. Thus, the N-glycome plays a previously unappreciated role as an intrinsic regulator of EHT, with specific mannose and sialic acid modifications serving as key endothelial determinants to restrict the hematopoietic fate.

Project description:We investigated how suppression of the most upstream microRNA–processing RNase, Drosha, affects the differentiation of human CD34+ hematopoietic stem–progenitor cells (HSPCs). We hypothesized that knock-down of Drosha would alter blood lineage development by modulating the expression of microRNAs. Lentiviral delivery to HSPCs of a short-hairpin targeting Drosha resulted in a viable phenotype with promotion of myeloid, and especially monocytic, maturation and suppression of apoptosis. Our results show that Drosha deficiency triggered a parallel upregulation of components of the RNAi machinery, including DGCR8, Dicer and Ago2. Deep sequencing analyses revealed global miRNA deficiency after Drosha short-hairpin treatment with relative maintenance of mature miR-223 expression. Restoration of miR-223 to normal levels after Drosha knock-down further enhanced monocytic maturation concomitant with the modulation of myeloid transcription factors that promoted monocytic differentiation. Our results support a miRNA accentuation model in which relative enhancement of miR-223 increases levels of PU.1 thereby promoting monocytic differentiation. CD34+ HSPCs were isolated from umbilical cord blood and transduced with an empty lentivector (EV) or a lentivector encoding a short-hairpin RNA targeting the pri-miRNA–processing enzyme, Drosha (shDrosha). EV and shDrosha transduced HSPCs were grown in liquid culture promoting myelopoiesis and sampled on days 0 and 7 for total RNA collection. Total RNA was size fractionated to enrich for the small RNA population and deep sequenced using ABI's SOLiD 4.0 platform.

Project description:We used a multi-omics approach combining transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics to study the impact of over-expression and inhibition of the microRNA miR-223, a pleiotropic regulator of metabolic-related disease, in the RAW monocyte-macrophage cell line. We analyzed the levels of proteins, mRNAs, and metabolites in order to identify genes involved in miR-223 regulation, to determine candidate disease biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets. We observed that both up- and down-regulation of miR-223 induced profound changes in the mRNA, protein and metabolite profiles in RAW cells. Microarray-based transcriptomics evidenced a change in 120 genes that were linked predominantly to histone acetylation, bone remodeling and RNA regulation. In addition, 30 out the 120 genes encoded long noncoding RNAs. The nanoLC-MS/MS revealed that 52 proteins were significantly altered when comparing scramble, pre- and anti-miR-223 treatments. Sixteen out of the mRNAs coding these proteins genes are predicted to have binding sites for miR-223. CARM-1, Ube2g2, Cactin and Ndufaf4 were confirmed to be miR-223 targets by western blotting. Analyses using Gene Ontology annotations evidenced association with cell death, splicing and stability of mRNAs, bone remodeling and cell metabolism. miR-223 alteration changed the expression of CARM-1, Ube2g2, Cactin and Ndufaf4 during osteoclastogenesis and macrophage, indicating that these genes are potential biomarkers of these processes. The most important discriminant metabolites found in the metabolomics study were found to be hydrophilic amino acids, carboxylic acids linked to metabolism and pyrimidine nucleotides, indicating that changes in miR-223 expression alter the metabolic profile of cells, and may affect their apoptotic and proliferative state.

Project description:Hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) originate from an endothelial-to-hematopoietic transition (EHT) during embryogenesis. Characterization of early hemogenic endothelial (HE) cells is required to understand what drives hemogenic specification and to accurately define cells capable of undergoing EHT. Using Cellular Indexing of Transcriptomes and Epitopes by Sequencing (CITE-seq), we defined the early subpopulation of pre-HE cells based on both surface markers and transcriptomes. We identified the transcription factor Meis1 as an essential regulator of hemogenic cell specification in the embryo prior to Runx1 expression. Meis1 is expressed at the earliest stages of EHT and distinguishes pre-HE cells primed towards the hemogenic trajectory from the arterial endothelial cells that continue towards a vascular fate. Endothelial-specific deletion of Meis1 impaired the formation of functional Runx1-expressing HE which significantly impeded the emergence of pre-HSPC via EHT. Our findings implicate Meis1 in a critical fate-determining step for establishing EHT potential in endothelial cells.

Project description:We profile the transcriptional landscape of mouse fetal placenta and identify four distinct types of haematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) during mid-gestation using single-cell RNA sequencing. We experimentally validate and uncover that a subpopulation of placental endothelial cells exhibits hemogenic endothelial (HE) potential and shares transcriptional features with HE cells in the aorta-gonad-mesonephros (AGM) region.
