Megakaryocyte and erythroblast DNA in plasma and platelets

ABSTRACT: Circulating nucleic acids are present in plasma and are derived from a range of cell types, mainly cells of hematopoietic origin, enabling their use as biomarkers for diseases involving these cell types. Using cell type-specific methylation markers, we determined that megakaryocytes are major contributors to cfDNA (~26%), while erythroblasts contribute 1-4% of cfDNA in healthy individuals. Additionally, we identified megakaryocyte-derived DNA within platelets, providing non-invasive access to the megakaryocyte genome and epigenome. Analysis of cfDNA in women who have received male platelet transfusions indicates that megakaryocyte-derived cfDNA does not originate from platelets but is rather released directly from megakaryocytes. The concentration of megakaryocyte-derived cfDNA is elevated in individuals with pathologies involving increased platelet production (Essential Thrombocythemia, Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura) and decreased by bone marrow suppression (due to chemotherapy), while erythrocyte progenitor cfDNA is elevated in patients with Thalassemia. Megakaryocyte- and erythroblast-specific DNA methylation patterns may serve as novel biomarkers for pathologies involving increased or decreased thrombopoiesis and erythropoiesis.

Transcription profiling by array of mouse bone marrow lineage- c-Kit+ Sca-1+ cells in which floxed Mpl alleles were specifically and homozygously deleted in megakaryocytes and platelets

Project description:Thrombopoietin (TPO) acting via its receptor Mpl is the major cytokine regulator of platelet number. To precisely define the role of specific hematopoietic cells in TPO dependent hematopoiesis, we generated mice that express the Mpl receptor normally on stem/progenitor cells but lack expression on megakaryocytes and platelets (MplPF4cre/PF4cre). MplPF4cre/PF4cre mice displayed profound megakaryocytosis and thrombocytosis with a remarkable expansion of megakaryocyte-committed and multipotential progenitor cells, the latter displaying biological responses and a gene expression signature indicative of chronic TPO over-stimulation as the underlying causative mechanism, despite a normal circulating TPO level. Thus, TPO signaling in megakaryocytes is dispensable for platelet production; its key role in control of platelet number is via generation and stimulation of the bipotential megakaryocyte precursors. Nevertheless, Mpl expression on megakaryocytes and platelets is essential to prevent megakaryocytosis and myeloproliferation by restricting the amount of TPO available to stimulate the production of megakaryocytes from the progenitor cell pool.

Pathogenesis of dominant-negative mutant GFI1B and associated proteomic abnormalities in megakaryocytes and platelets

Project description:Dominant-negative mutations in transcription factor Growth Factor Independence-1B (GFI1B) cause a bleeding disorder characterized by a plethora of megakaryocyte and platelet abnormalities. The deregulated molecular mechanisms and pathways are unknown. Here we show that normal and mutant GFI1B interacted most strongly with the LSD1-RCOR-HDAC corepressor complex in megakaryoblasts. Sequestration of this complex by mutant GFI1B and chemical separation of GFI1B from LSD1 induced abnormalities in normal megakaryocytes comparable to those seen in patients. Megakaryocytes derived from GFI1B-mutant induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) also phenocopied abnormalities seen in patients. Proteome studies on normal and mutant iPSC-derived megakaryocytes identified a multitude of deregulated pathways downstream of mutant GFI1B. Proteome studies on primary normal and GFI1B-mutant platelets showed reduced expression of proteins implicated in platelet function, and sustained expression of proteins normally downregulated during megakaryocyte differentiation. Thus, GFI1B regulates a broad developmental program during megakaryopoiesis. Mutant GFI1B deregulates this program through LSD1-RCOR-HDAC sequestering.

A Role for IFITM3 in Regulating Fibrinogen Endocytosis and Platelet Reactivity in Non-Viral Sepsis

Project description:Platelets and megakaryocytes are critical players in immune responses. Recent reports suggest infection and inflammation alter the megakaryocyte and platelet transcriptome to induce altered platelet reactivity. We examined if non-viral sepsis induces differential platelet gene expression and reactivity. Non-viral sepsis significantly upregulated IFITM3, an interferon responsive gene that restricts viral replication

RNA-sequencing of bone marrow and splenic megakaryocytes during homeostasis and sepsis

Project description:Platelets have a wide range of functions including critical roles in hemostasis, thrombosis, and immunity. We hypothesized that during acute inflammation, such as in life-threatening sepsis, there are fundamental changes in the sites of platelet production and phenotypes of resultant platelets. Here, we showed during sepsis that the spleen is a major site of megakaryopoiesis and platelet production. Sepsis provoked an adrenergic-dependent mobilization of megakaryocyte-erythrocyte progenitors (MEPs) from the bone marrow to the spleen where interleukin-3 (IL-3) induced their differentiation into megakaryocytes. In the spleen, immune-skewed megakaryocytes produced a CD40L-high platelet population with potent immunomodulatory functions. Transfusions of post-sepsis platelets enriched from splenic production enhanced immune responses and reduced overall mortality in sepsis-challenged animals. These findings identify a spleen-derived protective platelet population that may be broadly immunomodulatory in acute inflammatory states such as sepsis.

Generation of megakaryocytes and functional platelets from human embryonic stem cells

Project description:We developed a novel differentiation system that directionally induces hESCs into megakaryocytes and functional platelet in vitro by highly mimicking the in vivo developmental process of megakaryocytes and platelets. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained by RNA-seq at different stages of differentiation during the differentiation of hESCs into megakaryocyte lineages.

Expression of thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP) during megakaryopoiesis is indispensable for platelet biogenesis

Project description:Thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP) is ubiquitously expressed in blood cells, including hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), monocytes, and platelets. Here we report a novel finding that TXNIP plays a crucial role in megakaryopoiesis and platelet biogenesis via interacting with GATA1, a transcription factor for megakaryocyte-erythroid differentiation. Txnip-/- mice displayed immature megakaryocytes in the bone marrow with thrombocytopenia, which had gotten worse as the mice aged. Transcriptome analysis revealed that the transcriptional activity of GATA1 was significantly enhanced in the Txnip-/- megakaryocyte precursors (MkPs) than wild type (WT) cells. During megakaryopoiesis in ex vivo, Txnip-/- MkPs remained small in cell size with less mitochondrial mass, and more glycolysis for ATP production, as opposed to the normal megakaryocyte maturation. The effects of TXNIP in megakaryocytes were recapitulated in human cord blood CD34+ HSC-derived differentiation. Taken together, this study demonstrates the importance of spatiotemporal expression of TXNIP in platelet biogenesis. We propose for the first time that TXNIP might play a critical role in determining a lineage between megakaryocytes and erythroid cells from a common megakaryocyte-erythroid progenitor via regulation of transcriptional activity of GATA1.

PF4-Cre mediated deletion of SRF in murine megakaryocytes.

Project description:Srf is a MADS-box transcription factor that is critical for muscle differentiation. Its function in hematopoiesis has not yet been revealed. Mkl1, a cofactor of Srf, is part of the t(1;22) translocation in acute megakaryoblastic leukemia, and plays a critical role in megakaryopoiesis. In order to test the role of Srf in megakaryocyte development, we crossed Pf4-Cre mice, which express Cre recombinase in cells committed to the megakaryocytic lineage, to SrfF/F mice in which functional Srf is no longer expressed after Cre-mediated excision. Pf4-Cre/SrfF/F (KO) mice are born with normal mendelian frequency, but have significant macrothrombocytopenia with approximately 50% reduction in platelet count. In contrast, the BM has increased numbers and percentages of CD41+ megakaryocytes (WT: 0.41+/-0.06%; KO: 1.92+/-0.12%) with significantly reduced ploidy. KO mice show significantly increased megakaryocyte progenitors in the BM by both FACS analysis and CFU-Mk. Megakaryocytes lacking Srf have abnormal stress fiber and demarcation membrane formation and platelets lacking Srf have abnormal actin distribution. In vitro and in vivo assays reveal platelet function defects in KO mice. Critical actin cytoskeletal genes are downregulated in KO megakaryocytes. Thus, Srf is required for normal megakaryocyte maturation and platelet production, due at least in part, to regulation of cytoskeletal genes. C-kit+CD41+ megakaryocyte progenitors from PF4-Cre/SRF C57BL/6 SRF WT (3) and C57BL/6 SRF KO (3) mice were sorted by flow cytometry and cultured for three days in thrombopoietin.

Inducible Gata1 Suppression Expands Erythro-Megakaryocytic Progenitors from Embryonic Stem Cells

Project description:Embryonic stem (ES) and induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells represent a potential source of megakaryocytes and platelets for transfusion therapies. However, most current ES/iPS cell differentiation protocols are limited by low yields of hematopoietic progeny. Mutations in the mouse and human genes encoding transcription factor GATA1 cause accumulation of proliferating, developmentally arrested megakaryocytes. To exploit this clinical observation, we engineered wildtype (WT) murine ES cells to express doxycycline (dox)-regulated Gata1 short hairpin (sh) RNAs. In vitro differentiation with dox and thrombopoietin (Tpo) resulted in approximately 1013-fold expansion of immature hematopoietic progenitors. Upon dox withdrawal with multilineage cytokines, GATA1 expression was restored and the cells differentiated into erythroblasts and megakaryocytes. With Tpo alone, dox-deprived progenitors formed mainly mature megakaryocytes that generated functional platelets in vivo. Our findings provide a novel, readily reproducible strategy to expand ES-cell derived megakaryocyte-erythroid progenitors and direct their differentiation into megakaryocytes producing functional platelets in clinically relevant numbers. 3 classes of samples were compared 1) fetal liver derived megkaryocytes 2) G1ME (Gata1â megakaryocyte-erythroid) 3) G1ME2 (engineered wildtype (WT) murine ES cells to express doxycycline (dox)-regulated Gata1 short hairpin (sh) RNAs)

Expression data from human platelets after purification

Project description:Platelets are small anucleate cells derived from the fragmentation of megakaryocytes and are involved in different biological processes especially hemostasis, thrombosis and immune response. Platelet purification is a crucial step in transcriptomic analysis, and researchers usually encounter the problem of platelet contamination by leukocytes and erythrocytes. Leukocytes contain much more RNA than platelets, thus the presence of few contaminants in platelet preparation can strongly alter transcriptome results. Using microarray technique, we compared transcriptome of platelets from the same donor, purified by common centrifugation method or using magnetic microbeads to eliminate contaminating cells.
