Project description:Mitochondrial metabolism determines bone marrow hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) heterogeneity, and influences long-term blood repopulation potential.Self-renewal and multilineage engraftment capacity of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are key properties leveraged for their clinical use in bone marrow transplantation. Variations in long-term blood reconstitution ability are partly attributed to the functional heterogeneity in HSCs, which is influenced by the dynamic mitochondrial metabolic state, in addition to differences in gene expression. However, when and how this mitochondrial regulation of definitive HSCs originates is unexplored. Whether metabolic variation is an outcome of the diverse HSC milieu, or an inherent property of the emergent HSCs, is not known. Here, Wwe show that dynamic changes in mitochondrial activity during endothelial to hematopoietic transition (EHT) drives the production of mature HSCs in the mouse embryo. Pharmacological and genetic manipulations show that hematopoietic emergence during the endothelial to hematopoietic transition (EHT) in the aorta-gonad-mesonephros (AGM) region involves mitochondrial remodelling. reduced mitochondrial activity activates Wnt signalling to promote expansion of mature HSCs in the AGM. Further, single cell transcriptomics and functional assays uncovered mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) driven functional heterogeneity within the mature HSC pool. MMPlow HSCs are myeloid-biased and exhibit enhanced differentiation potential. Contrarily, MMPhigh HSCs are lymphoid-biased with diminished differentiation potential. Mechanistically, low mitochondrial activity upregulates PI3K signalling to fuel embryonic HSC differentiation. We provide insights into the metabolic regulation of HSC origin and function, that can be leveraged to direct HSC fate decisions for clinical interventions.

Project description:Increasing evidence links metabolic activity and cell growth to decline in hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) function during aging. The Lin28b/Hmga2 pathway controls tissue development and in the hematopoietic system the postnatal downregulation of this pathway causes a decrease in self renewal of adult HSCs compared to fetal HSCs. Igf2bp2 is an RNA binding protein and a mediator of the Lin28b/Hmga2 pathway, which regulates metabolism and growth signaling by influencing RNA stability and translation of its target genes. It is currently unknown whether Lin28/Hmga2/Igf2bp2 signaling impacts on aging-associated impairments in HSC function and hematopoiesis. Here, we analyzed homozygous Igf2bp2 germline knockout mice and wildtype control animals to address this question. The study shows that Igf2bp2 deletion rescues aging phenotypes of the hematopoietic system, such as the expansion of HSC numbers in bone marrow and the biased increase of myeloid cells in peripheral blood. This rescue of hematopoietic aging coincides with reduced mitochondrial metabolism and glycolysis in Igf2bp2-/- HSCs compared to Igf2bp2+/+ HSCs. Conversely, Igf2bp2 overexpression activates protein synthesis pathways in HSCs and leads to a rapid loss of self renewal by enhancing myeloid skewed differentiation in an mTOR/PI3K-dependent manner. Together, these results show that Igf2bp2 regulates energy metabolism and growth signaling in HSCs and that the activity of this pathways influences self renewal, differentiation, and aging of HSCs.

Project description:During acute myelosuppression or thrombocytopenia, bone marrow (BM) hematopoietic cells respond rapidly to replenish peripheral blood platelets. While the cytokine Thrombopoietin (Thpo) concomitantly regulates platelet production and maintains HSC stem cell potential whether Thpo directly controls Mk-lineage differentiation of HSCs is unclear. Stress hematopoiesis requires quiescent HSCs to proliferate, a process which depends on a higher energy production. However, whether this switch of metabolic state relates to lineage differentiation of HSCs is not known. We here show that Thpo rapidly upregulates mitochondrial activity in HSCs which was accompanied by preferential differentiation to Mk-lineage. During unperturbed hematopoiesis, HSCs with high mitochondrial content and activity exhibit Mk-lineage biased differentiation. Furthermore, Thpo rapidly skewed HSCs to express a tetraspanin molecule, CD9, which expression correlated to mitochondria cell content. While highly proliferative, mitochondrial-rich HSCs were resistant to apoptosis and oxidative stress upon Thpo stimulation. Thpo regulated mitochondrial activity did not associate with high levels of cMpl expression but was influenced by non-nuclear mitochondrial translocation of phosphorylated of STAT3 at serine 727. Our data reveals that HSCs are metabolically heterogeneous and higher mitochondrial activity primes HSCs toward the Mk lineage differentiation. We also uncover a pivotal role of Thpo in regulating the rapid Mk-lineage commitment during stress hematopoiesis. Our findings suggest that mitochondria metabolism primes HSCs not only to exit dormancy but toward direct differentiation to Mk lineage.

Project description:Adult and fetal hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) display a glycolytic phenotype, which is required for maintenance of stemness; however, whether mitochondrial respiration is required to maintain HSC function is not known. Here we report that loss of the mitochondrial complex III subunit Rieske iron sulfur protein (RISP) in fetal mouse HSCs allows them to proliferate but impairs their differentiation, resulting in anemia and prenatal death. RISP null fetal HSCs displayed impaired respiration resulting in a decreased NAD+/NADH ratio. RISP null fetal HSCs and progenitors exhibited an increase in both DNA and histone methylation concomitant with increases in 2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG), a metabolite known to inhibit DNA and histone demethylases. RISP inactivation in adult HSCs also impaired respiration resulting in loss of quiescence resulting in severe pancytopenia and lethality. Thus, respiration is dispensable for adult or fetal HSC proliferation, but essential for fetal HSC differentiation and maintenance of adult HSC quiescence.

Project description:The traditional view of hematopoiesis has been that all the cells of the peripheral blood are the progeny of a unitary homogeneous pool of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Recent evidence suggests that the hematopoietic system is actually maintained by a consortium of HSC subtypes with distinct functional characteristics. We show here that myeloid-biased HSCs (My-HSCs) and lymphoid-biased (Ly-HSCs) can be purified according to their capacity for Hoechst dye efflux in combination with canonical HSC markers. We used microarray expression profiling to determine the transcriptional profiles of myeloid-biased lower-SP HSCs and lymphoid-biased upper-SP HSCs Three biological replicates were analyzed for each HSC subpopulation. Lower-SP and upper-SP HSCs were purified from three pools of mice on separate days. HSCs were further purified with the addition of canonical HSC makers; Sca-1+ c-Kit+ Lineage-

Abstract:
Adult blood contains a mixture of mature cell types, each
with specialized functions. Single hematopoietic stem cells
(HSCs) have been functionally shown to generate all mature cell
types for the lifetime of the organism. Differentiation of HSCs
toward alternative lineages must be balanced at the population
level by the fate decisions made by individual cells.
Transcription factors play a key role in regulating these
decisions and operate within organized regulatory programs that
can be modeled as transcriptional regulatory networks. As
dysregulation of single HSC fate decisions is linked to fatal
malignancies such as leukemia, it is important to understand
how these decisions are controlled on a cell-by-cell basis.
Here we developed and applied a network inference method,
exploiting the ability to infer dynamic information from
single-cell snapshot expression data based on expression
profiles of 48 genes in 2,167 blood stem and progenitor cells.
This approach allowed us to infer transcriptional regulatory
network models that recapitulated differentiation of HSCs into
progenitor cell types, focusing on trajectories toward
megakaryocyte–erythrocyte progenitors and lymphoid-primed
multipotent progenitors. By comparing these two models, we
identified and subsequently experimentally validated a
difference in the regulation of nuclear factor, erythroid 2
(Nfe2) and core-binding factor, runt domain, alpha subunit 2,
translocated to, 3 homolog (Cbfa2t3h) by the transcription
factor Gata2. Our approach confirms known aspects of
hematopoiesis, provides hypotheses about regulation of HSC
differentiation, and is widely applicable to other hierarchical
biological systems to uncover regulatory relationships.

Project description:Haematopoietic stem cells (HSC) and multipotent progenitor cells (MPP) generate all cells of the blood system, although cellular heterogeneity and bias in lineage potential have been observed. Here, we examined whether lineage-specific transcription factors, such as the B-lineage determinant EBF1, establish lineage bias in early progenitors. We detect low level EBF1 expression in myeloid-biased MPP3 and lymphoid-biased MPP4 cells, and show that Ebf1-deficient animals display reduced HSC quiescence and repopulation capacity, enhanced myelopoiesis and enhanced myeloid differentiation potential of MPP3 and MPP4 cells. Bulk and single-cell RNA-seq analysis revealed a CEBPa-driven myeloid transcriptome in Ebf1-deficient progenitors, and we find that EBF1 binds and potentially antagonizes the haematopoietic Cebpa enhancer. In MPP3 cells, EBF1 additionally primes enhancers associated with B-lymphoid genes that gain expression in common lymphoid progenitors. Thus, our study identifies EBF1 as an important determinant in regulating the balance of myeloid versus lymphoid potential in the earliest hematopoietic progenitors.

Project description:Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) maintain homeostasis and fitness by balancing self-renewal and differentiation. Alterations to the symmetry of HSC divisions reduce quiescence and induce myeloid/megakaryocyte-biased hematopoiesis. Here, we show that HSC self-renewal, fitness, and function are preserved by the master transcription factor retinoid X receptor (RXR). We demonstrate that dual lack of hematopoietic RXRα and RXRβ induces HSC asymmetric cell division resulting in HSC exhaustion and age-associated myeloproliferative disease. Characterization of transcriptomic and epigenetic changes in RXR-deficient HSCs demonstrated chromatin opening, acquisition of a premature aging-like HSC signature, MYC pathway upregulation, and RNA intron retention. Myc haploinsufficiency completely prevents the loss of RXR-deficient HSC activity. Our study unveils the critical relevance of RXR for HSC homeostasis and fitness.
