Project description:BackgroundDiabetes mellitus is a prevalent public health problem that affects about one-third of the US population and leads to serious vascular complications with increased risk for coronary artery disease. How bone marrow hematopoiesis contributes to diabetes mellitus complications is incompletely understood. We investigated the role of bone marrow endothelial cells in diabetic regulation of inflammatory myeloid cell production.MethodsIn 3 types of mouse diabetes mellitus, including streptozotocin, high-fat diet, and genetic induction using leptin-receptor-deficient db/db mice, we assayed leukocytes, hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC). In addition, we investigated bone marrow endothelial cells with flow cytometry and expression profiling.ResultsIn diabetes mellitus, we observed enhanced proliferation of HSPC leading to augmented circulating myeloid cell numbers. Analysis of bone marrow niche cells revealed that endothelial cells in diabetic mice expressed less Cxcl12, a retention factor promoting HSPC quiescence. Transcriptome-wide analysis of bone marrow endothelial cells demonstrated enrichment of genes involved in epithelial growth factor receptor (Egfr) signaling in mice with diet-induced diabetes mellitus. To explore whether endothelial Egfr plays a functional role in myelopoiesis, we generated mice with endothelial-specific deletion of Egfr (Cdh5Cre Egfrfl/fl). We found enhanced HSPC proliferation and increased myeloid cell production in Cdh5Cre Egfrfl/fl mice compared with wild-type mice with diabetes mellitus. Disrupted Egfr signaling in endothelial cells decreased their expression of the HSPC retention factor angiopoietin-1. We tested the functional relevance of these findings for wound healing and atherosclerosis, both implicated in complications of diabetes mellitus. Inflammatory myeloid cells accumulated more in skin wounds of diabetic Cdh5Cre Egfrfl/fl mice, significantly delaying wound closure. Atherosclerosis was accelerated in Cdh5Cre Egfrfl/fl mice, leading to larger and more inflamed atherosclerotic lesions in the aorta.ConclusionsIn diabetes mellitus, bone marrow endothelial cells participate in the dysregulation of bone marrow hematopoiesis. Diabetes mellitus reduces endothelial production of Cxcl12, a quiescence-promoting niche factor that reduces stem cell proliferation. We describe a previously unknown counterregulatory pathway, in which protective endothelial Egfr signaling curbs HSPC proliferation and myeloid cell production.

Project description:BackgroundReceptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3), a component of necroptosis pathways, may have an independent role in inflammation. It has been unclear which RIPK3-expressing cells are responsible for the anti-inflammatory effect of overall Ripk3 deficiency and whether Ripk3 deficiency protects against kidney inflammation occurring in the absence of tubular cell death.MethodsWe used chimeric mice with bone marrow from wild-type and Ripk3-knockout mice to explore RIPK3's contribution to kidney inflammation in the presence of folic acid-induced acute kidney injury AKI (FA-AKI) or absence of AKI and kidney cell death (as seen in systemic administration of the cytokine TNF-like weak inducer of apoptosis [TWEAK]).ResultsTubular and interstitial cell RIPK3 expressions were increased in murine AKI. Ripk3 deficiency decreased NF-κB activation and kidney inflammation in FA-AKI but did not prevent kidney failure. In the chimeric mice, RIPK3-expressing bone marrow-derived cells were required for early inflammation in FA-AKI. The NLRP3 inflammasome was not involved in RIPK3's proinflammatory effect. Systemic TWEAK administration induced kidney inflammation in wild-type but not Ripk3-deficient mice. In cell cultures, TWEAK increased RIPK3 expression in bone marrow-derived macrophages and tubular cells. RIPK3 mediated TWEAK-induced NF-κB activation and inflammatory responses in bone marrow-derived macrophages and dendritic cells and in Jurkat T cells; however, in tubular cells, RIPK3 mediated only TWEAK-induced Il-6 expression. Furthermore, conditioned media from TWEAK-exposed wild-type macrophages, but not from Ripk3-deficient macrophages, promoted proinflammatory responses in cultured tubular cells.ConclusionsRIPK3 mediates kidney inflammation independently from tubular cell death. Specific targeting of bone marrow-derived RIPK3 may limit kidney inflammation without the potential adverse effects of systemic RIPK3 targeting.

Project description:TNFα is implicated in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) immunosuppression and disease progression. TNFα is constitutively produced by CLL B cells and is a negative regulator of bone marrow (BM) myelopoiesis. Here, we show that co-culture of CLL B cells with purified normal human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) directly altered protein levels of the myeloid and erythroid cell fate determinants PU.1 and GATA-2 at the single-cell level within transitional HSPC subsets, mimicking ex vivo expression patterns. Physical separation of CLL cells from control HSPCs or neutralizing TNFα abrogated upregulation of PU.1, yet restoration of GATA-2 required TNFα neutralization, suggesting both cell contact and soluble-factor-mediated regulation. We further show that CLL patient BM myeloid progenitors are diminished in frequency and function, an effect recapitulated by chronic exposure of control HSPCs to low-dose TNFα. These findings implicate CLL B-cell-derived TNFα in impaired BM myelopoiesis.

Project description:Although accumulation of dendritic cell (DC) precursors occurs in bone marrow, the terminal differentiation of these cells takes place outside bone marrow. The signaling, regulating this process, remains poorly understood. We demonstrated that this process could be differentially regulated by Notch ligands: Jagged-1 (Jag1) and Delta-like ligand 1 (Dll1). In contrast to Dll1, Jag1, in vitro and during induced myelopoiesis in vivo, prevented DC differentiation by promoting the accumulation of their precursors. Although both ligands activated Notch in hematopoietic progenitor cells, they had an opposite effect on Wnt signaling. Dll1 activated Wnt pathways, whereas Jag1 inhibited it via downregulation of the expression of the Wnt receptors Frizzled (Fzd). Jag1 suppressed fzd expression by retaining histone deacetylase 1 in the complex with the transcription factor CSL/CBF-1 on the fzd promoter. Our results suggest that DC differentiation, during induced myelopoiesis, can be regulated by the nature of the Notch ligand expressed on adjacent stroma cells.

Project description:Ames hypopituitary dwarf mice are deficient in growth hormone, thyroid-stimulating hormone, and prolactin. The phenotype of these mice demonstrates irregularities in the immune system with skewing of the normal cytokine milieu towards a more anti-inflammatory environment. However, the hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell composition of the bone marrow (BM) and spleen in Ames dwarf mice has not been well characterized. We found that there was a significant decrease in overall cell count when comparing the BM and spleen of 4-5 month old dwarf mice to their littermate controls. Upon adjusting counts to differences in body weight between the dwarf and control mice, the number of granulocyte-macrophage progenitors, confirmed by immunophenotyping and colony-formation assay was increased in the BM. In contrast, the numbers of all myeloid progenitor populations in the spleen were greatly reduced, as confirmed by colony-formation assays. This suggests that there is a shift of myelopoiesis from the spleen to the BM of Ames dwarf mice; however, this shift does not appear to involve erythropoiesis. The reasons for this unusual shift in spleen to marrow hematopoiesis in Ames dwarf mice are yet to be determined but may relate to the decreased hormone levels in these mice.
