Spic is required for the differentiation of metaphocyte progenitor cells

ABSTRACT: Metaphocytes are tissue-resident myeloid-like cells of non-hematopoietic origin in zebrafish barrier tissues. How metaphocytes acquire myeloid cell properties from non-hematopoietic precursors during the development remains unknown. Here we show that metaphocytes are in situ generated from local progenitors guided by the ETS transcription factor Spic. Tg(spic:EGFP) transgenic fish were found to label both metaphocytes and their progenitor cells. While spic is dispensable for the formation of the metaphocyte progenitors, it is required for the progenitors to differentiate into immature metaphocytes. To decipher the molecular basis underlying the developmental arrest of metaphocytes in spic mutants, we sorted the metaphocyte progenitor cells from the epidermis and gill of the mutants and siblings and performed bulk RNA-seq analysis. The data suggests that Spic orchestrates the development of metaphocytes by promoting the expression of myeloid-associated genes, either directly or indirectly through downstream transcription factors.

Project description:Collombet2016 - Lymphoid and myeloid cell specification and transdifferentiation This model is described in the article: Logical modeling of lymphoid and myeloid cell specification and transdifferentiation Samuel Collombet, Chris van Oevelen, Jose Luis Sardina Ortega, Wassim Abou-Jaoudé, Bruno Di Stefano, Morgane Thomas-Chollier, Thomas Graf, and Denis Thieffry Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America Abstract: Blood cells are derived from a common set of hematopoietic stem cells, which differentiate into more specific progenitors of the myeloid and lymphoid lineages, ultimately leading to differentiated cells. This developmental process is controlled by a complex regulatory network involving cytokines and their receptors, transcription factors, and chromatin remodelers. Using public data and data from our own molecular genetic experiments (quantitative PCR, Western blot, EMSA) or genome-wide assays (RNA-sequencing, ChIP-sequencing), we have assembled a comprehensive regulatory network encompassing the main transcription factors and signaling components involved in myeloid and lymphoid development. Focusing on B-cell and macrophage development, we defined a qualitative dynamical model recapitulating cytokine-induced differentiation of common progenitors, the effect of various reported gene knockdowns, and the reprogramming of pre-B cells into macrophages induced by the ectopic expression of specific transcription factors. The resulting network model can be used as a template for the integration of new hematopoietic differentiation and transdifferentiation data to foster our understanding of lymphoid/myeloid cell-fate decisions.
