Vascular niche induction of hematopoietic progenitors from pluripotent stem cells

ABSTRACT: Pluripotent stem cells (PSC) represent an alternative source of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Clinical translation is impeded by limited engraftment of human (h)PSC-multipotent progenitor cells (MPP). This barrier suggests that additional cues are required for definitive hematopoiesis. We hypothesized that vascular niche producing Notch ligands Jagged-1 (JAG1) and Delta-like ligand-4 (DLL4) would drive definitive hematopoiesis. To test our hypothesis, hes2 human embryonic stem cells (hESC) 2 and Macaca nemestrina (Mn) iPSC line-7 were differentiated with cytokines ± endothelial cells (EC), which express JAG1 and DLL4. EC co-culture supported emergence of 8-fold more CD34+CD45+ cells compared to co-culture with cytokines ± ECs with JAG1 or DLL4 knockdown. EC-induced cells exhibit Notch activation and express HSC-specific targets of Notch signaling RUNX1 and GATA2. EC-induced PSC-MPP engraft at a higher level in NSG mice compared to cytokine-induced cells (10% >5 months), and selection increased engraftment (30%). Long-term engraftment and the myeloid-to-lymphoid ratio achieved with vascular niche induction is similar to levels achieved for cord blood MPP and up to 20-fold higher than hPSC-MPP engraftment. Our findings identify a previously underappreciated role for endothelial Notch ligands in PSC definitive hematopoiesis and production of long-term engrafting CD34+ cells and suggest they are critical for HSC emergence.

JAG1-NOTCH4 mechanosensing drives atherosclerosis

Project description:Endothelial cell (EC) sensing of fluid shear stress regulates atherosclerosis, a disease of arteries that causes heart attack and stroke. Atherosclerosis preferentially develops at regions of arteries exposed to low oscillatory shear stress (LOSS), whereas high shear regions are protected. We show using inducible EC-specific genetic deletion in hyperlipidaemic mice that the Notch ligands JAG1 and DLL4 have opposing roles in atherosclerosis. While endothelial Jag1 promoted atherosclerosis at sites of LOSS, endothelial Dll4 was atheroprotective. Analysis of porcine and murine arteries and cultured human coronary artery EC exposed to experimental flow revealed that JAG1 and its receptor NOTCH4 are strongly upregulated by LOSS. Functional studies in cultured cells and in mice with EC-specific deletion of Jag1 show that JAG1-NOTCH4 signalling drives vascular dysfunction by repressing endothelial repair. These data demonstrate a fundamental role for JAG1-NOTCH4 in sensing LOSS during disease, and suggest therapeutic targeting of this pathway to treat atherosclerosis.

Coronary arterial development is regulated by a Dll4-Jag1-EphrinB2 signaling cascade

Project description:Coronaries are essential for myocardial growth and heart function. Notch is crucial for mouse embryonic angiogenesis, but its role in coronary development remains uncertain. We show Jag1, Dll4 and activated Notch1 receptor expression in sinus venosus (SV) endocardium. Endocardial Jag1 removal blocks SV capillary sprouting, while Dll4 inactivation stimulates excessive capillary growth, suggesting that ligand antagonism regulates coronary primary plexus formation. Later endothelial ligand removal, or forced expression of Dll4 or the glycosyltransferase MFng, blocks coronary plexus remodeling, arterial differentiation, and perivascular cell maturation. Endocardial deletion of Efnb2 phenocopies the coronary arterial defects of Notch mutants. Angiogenic rescue experiments in ventricular explants, or in primary human endothelial cells, indicate that EphrinB2 is a critical effector of antagonistic Dll4 and Jag1 functions in arterial morphogenesis. Thus, coronary arterial precursors are specified in the SV prior to primary coronary plexus formation and subsequent arterial differentiation depends on a Dll4-Jag1-EphrinB2 signaling cascade.

Transcriptional regulation in the embryonic endocardium after NOTCH pathway manipulation

Project description:We have manipulated the NOTCH signaling pathway in mouse embryonic endocardial cells by the co-culture with OP9 stromal cells expressing Jag1 and Dll4, the culture over recombinant JAG1 and DLL4, and the use of the γ-secretase inhibitor RO4929097. We have performed RNA-seq and ATAC-seq to define the transcriptional profile and the chromatin accessibility landscape specific for each condition.

Transcription profiling of human LEC cells reveals KSHV manipulates notch signaling by upregulating Dll4 and JAG1 to alter cell cycle gene expression in

Project description:Kaposi sarcoma is the most common cancer in AIDS patients and is typified by red skin lesions. The disease is caused by the KSHV virus (HHV8) and is recognizable by its distinctive red skin lesions. The lesions are KSHV infected spindle cells, most commonly the lymphatic endothelial and blood vessel endothelial cells (LEC and BEC), plus surrounding stroma. Here we examine KSHVs modulation of Notch signaling using wild-type LEC cells co-cultured with DLL4 and JAG1 expressing LEC cells. Experiment Overall Design: There are 1) n=2 of LEC control cells co-cultured with pSIN expressing LEC, 2) n=3 of LEC co-cultured with pSIN-Dll4 expressing LEC, and 3) n=3 of LEC co-cultured with pSIN-JAG1 expressing LEC.

Endothelial Jagged1 levels and distribution are post-transcriptionally controlled by ZFP36 decay proteins

Project description:Vascular morphogenesis requires a delicate gradient of Notch signaling that is controlled, at least in part, by the distribution of ligands (Dll4 and Jagged1). How jagged1 (JAG1) expression is compartmentalized in the vascular plexus remains unclear. Here we showed that Jag1 mRNA is a direct target of zinc finger protein 36 (ZFP36), an RNA-binding protein involved in mRNA decay that we found robustly induced by VEGF. Endothelial cells lacking ZFP36 displayed high levels of JAG1 and increased angiogenic sprouting in vitro. Similarly, mice lackingZfp36in endothelial cells display mispatterned and increased levels of JAG1 in the developing retinal vascular plexus. Abnormal levels of JAG1 at the sprouting front altered NOTCH1 signaling, increasing the number of tip cells; a phenotype that was rescued by imposing haploinsufficiency ofJag1. Our findings reveal an important feedforward loop, whereby VEGF stimulates ZFP36, consequently suppressing Jag1 to enable adequate levels of Notch signaling during sprouting angiogenesis.

Enhancement of Arterial Specification in Human Pluripotent Stem Cell Cultures Promotes Definitive Hematoendothelial Program with Broad Myelolymphoid Potential

Project description:Identification of the regulators that lead to arterial specification with definitive hematopoietic potential should help to design strategies to recapitulate HSC development from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs). Here, using ETS1 conditional H1 hESC line, we found that ETS1 induction at the mesodermal stage of differentiation dramatically enhances the arterial specification in hPSC cultures and formation of DLL4+CXCR4+/- arterial HE with lymphoid potential and the capacity to produce red blood cells with high expression of BCL11a and b-globin. ETS1 effect was mediated through upregulation of NOTCH signaling. Together, these findings demonstrated that promotion of arterial specification in cultures could aid in generation of definitive hematopoiesis from hPSCs.

Delta-like ligand 4-Notch signaling inhibition regulates pancreatic islet function and insulin secretion

Project description:Dll4-Notch signaling is required for cell fate decisions and neoplasias. However, emerging evidence suggests a role for Dll4-Notch signaling in metabolic and immune diseases. To date, there is no evidence of a direct effect of Dll4-Notch signaling inhibition on pancreatic islet function and insulin secretion.
