Project description:The derivation of functional, transplantable HSCs from an pluripotent stem cells in vitro holds great promise for clinical therapies, but is unachieved. In order to achieve full functionality of HSCs, it is vital to determine the extent to which PSCs can currently be differentiated to the HSC program in vitro and identify the remaining dysregulated genetic pathways. Microarrays were used to compare the transcritomes of ESC-derived immunophenotypic HSPCs to endogenous HSPCs from various stages of development to determine the programs important for human HSC development and function, and which programs were lacking in ESC-derived hematopoietic cells. CD34+CD38-CD43+CD90+ HSPCs were sorted from human placenta and embryoid bodies, and CD34+CD38-CD45+CD90+ HSPCs sorted from fetal liver and embryoid bodies co-cultured on OP9-M2 stroma, the RNA was extracted, library created and hybridized to the Affymetrix microarray

Project description:Haematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) in the foetus and adult possess distinct molecular landscapes that regulate cell fate and change their susceptibility to initiation and progression of haematopoietic malignancies. The proteomic programs that govern these differences remain elusive. In this study, we have utilized a mass spectrometry-based quantitative proteomics approach to comprehensively describe and compare the proteome of foetal and adult HSPCs. We found that the proteome of foetal HSPCs is relatively simple, characterized by proteins involved in cell cycle and cell proliferation, while their adult counterparts are defined by a larger set of proteins that are involved in more diverse cellular processes. These adult characteristics include an arsenal of proteins important for viral and bacterial defence, as well as protection against ROS-induced protein oxidation. Our further analyses of Type I interferon signalling shows that foetal HSPCs are sensitive to Interferon a (IFNa), which impairs their production of mature lymphoid cells, whereas stimulation with IFNa to the pregnant mother enhances the production of early progenitors from foetal HSCs. Our results provide new and important insights into the molecular landscape of foetal and adult haematopoiesis that advance our understanding of normal and malignant haematopoiesis during foetal and adult life.

Project description:Hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) rely on a unique regulatory machinery that facilitates life-long blood production and enables reconstitution of the entire hematopoietic system upon transplantation. However, the biological processes governing human HSC self-renewal and engraftment ability are poorly understood and challenging to recapitulate ex vivo to facilitate robust human HSC expansion. We discovered a novel HSC regulatory protein, MYCT1 (MYCT target 1), that is selectively expressed in endothelial cells (EC) and undifferentiated human HSPCs but becomes drastically downregulated during HSC culture. Lentiviral knockdown of MYCT1 in human foetal liver and cord blood HSPCs revealed a critical role for MYCT1 in governing human HSPC expansion and engraftment ability. Single cell RNAseq of human CB HSPCs after MYCT1 knockdown and overexpression revealed that MYCT1 governs HSC functional competence and modulates cellular properties essential for HSC stemness, such as low mitochondrial metabolic activity. Indeed, restoring the compromised MYCT1 expression in cultured human CB HSPCs improved ex vivo expansion of the most undifferentiated human HSPCs and enhanced their engraftment ability. We found that MYCT1 is localized in the endosomal membrane and interacts with vesicle trafficking regulators and signalling machinery essential for HSC and EC function. Loss of MYCT1 led to excessive endocytosis and hyperactive signalling responses to cytokines, whereas restoring MYCT1 expression in cultured CB HSPCs balanced the abnormal endocytosis associated with prolonged culture and fine-tuned signalling responses. Our work identifies MYCT1-moderated endocytosis and environmental sensing as an essential regulatory mechanism required to preserve human HSC stemness, and pinpoints silencing of MYCT1 as a critical contributor to the dysfunction of cultured human HSCs that needs to be addressed to improve human HSC culture strategies.

Project description:We identified a novel HSC regulatory gene, MYCT1 (MYC target 1), that is selectively expressed in undifferentiated human HSPC and is critical for human HSC expansion and engraftment. MYCT1 knockdown (KD) in human fetal liver and cord blood (CB) HSPCs impaired expansion ex vivo and engraftment after transplantation, whereas restoring the compromised MYCT1 expression via lentiviral overexpression (OE) in cultured human CB HSPCs improved ex vivo expansion of the most undifferentiated human HSPCs (CD34+CD38-CD90+CD45RA-EPCR+ITGA3+) and enhanced their engraftment ability. We performed single cell RNAseq of uncultured human CB HSPCs, as well as 72 hours after MYCT1 KD and OE to identify MYCT1-regulated programs in HSC and understand the role of MYCT1 in governing human HSPC expansion and engraftment ability. Functional enrichment analysis linked the loss of MYCT1 in HLF+ HSCs to a profound dysregulation of multiple cellular programs essential for HSC stemness, such as oxidative phosphorylation or proteostasis, while MYCT1 OE had the opposite effect and showed closer similarity to uncultured HLF+ HSCs. These data indicate that the loss or gain of MYCT1 expression elicits major effects on programs regulating human HSC functional competence. Mechanistically, we found that MYCT1 governs endocytosis. Therefore, we performed scRNAseq of cultured HSPCs (CD34+CD38-CD90+EPCR+) with low, medium or high levels of endocytosis and found that low endocytosis HSCs had higher MYCT1 expression and favorable transcriptomic profiles of HSC functional competence.

Project description:CD49f has been used to define human hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Tracing the origin of CD49f+ HSCs shall enhance our understanding of the regulatory mechanisms and improve in vitro generation of HSCs. Here, we employed the hematopoietic differentiation system from human pluripotent stem cells and performed a computational trajectory analysis of the cells throughout this process based on integrated calculating the levels of 10 HSC markers. We observed two clades of cell populations in the trajectory tree, one of which represents the phenotypic CD49fHigh HSCs, and the other diverges only by low CD49f level. Live cell imaging revealed that CD49f expression is persistent during endothelial-to-hematopoietic transition, suggesting that the phenotypic CD49fHigh HSCs are pre-defined in hemogenic endothelial cells (HECs), while the concurrently emerged CD49fLow cells represent HSC-independent progenitors. Colony forming assays showed that the CD49fHigh cells have multilineage potential, whereas the CD49fLow cells lack lymphoid potential but show a strong erythroid preference. The aim of the experiment was to compare newly defined CD49fHigh and CD49fLow populations from hESCs-derived HSPCs and Hemogenic Endothelium.

Project description:GATA2 is a pivotal hematopoietic transcription factor required for generation and maintenance of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Due to early embryonic lethality of Gata2 deficiency in mice, its role during adult hematopoiesis is incompletely understood. In zebrafish, mammalian functions of Gata2 are split between two orthologues: Gata2a and Gata2b. Previous studies have shown that Gata2b is prominently expressed in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs), whereas Gata2a is mainly expressed in the vasculature. We found that Gata2b deficient zebrafish have a reduction in embryonic definitive HSPC numbers and have impaired myeloid lineage differentiation, but are viable. This allowed us to study the role of Gata2b in adult hematopoiesis. To assess the impact of Gata2b deficiency on the transcriptional profile of HSPCs and differentiated cells, we sorted the entire progenitor and HSPC population including the lymphoid population from kidney marrow (KM) of WT and germline Gata2b deficient zebrafish based on scatter profiles and processed for single-cell RNA sequencing. To enrich the scarce HSC population, we used pooled KM from two WT and Gata2b deficient Tg(CD41:GFP) zebrafish per sample and included all CD41:GFPlow expressing cells present in the kidney marrow pool as these cells were shown to contain transplantable HSCs.

Project description:Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) must balance self-renewal and lineage differentiation to regenerate the hematopoietic system throughout life. HSCs exhibit lineage-associated gene expression that keeps them responsive to demands of mature blood production. However, it is not known whether this process, termed lineage priming, directly influences HSC self-renewal. We investigated the link between stemness and lineage priming by attenuating the early lymphoid transcription factor E47 through ID2 over-expression (OE). Transcriptional profiling of ID2 OE HSCs showed down regulation of B-cell factors including EBF1 and FOXO1 with a concomitant increase in stemness programs and myeloerythroid factors including CEBPA and GATA1. This resulted in myeloid commitment bias from the earliest stages of differentiation. HSC self-renewal was strongly affected by this lineage perturbation resulting in an 11-fold expansion of HSCs. Thus, early lymphoid transcription factors antagonize human HSC self-renewal, providing a direct link between differentiation program priming and the maintenance of stem cell self-renewal. Three independent lineage depleted CB samples were transduced with P-CTRL or P-ID2 and injected into 5 mice (30 mice total). From every group of 5 mice, human lin- cells were isolated and GFP+CD34+CD38-CD45RA- HSPCs were sorted by FACS.

Project description:Adult haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are responsible for the lifelong production of blood and immune cells and must respond to extracellular cues including cytokines. The JAK/STAT pathway is a highly conserved pathway, activated by many cytokines, in which tyrosine-phosphorylated STATs (pSTATs) function as transcription factors. STAT5 is a pivotal downstream mediator of several cytokines known to regulate haematopoiesis but its function in the HSC compartment remains poorly understood. Here we show that STAT5-deficient HSCs exhibited an unusual phenotype - reduced multi-lineage repopulation and self-renewal combined with reduced cell cycle entry and increased differentiation. This reflected not only loss of a canonical pSTAT5 transcriptional program but also loss of distinct functions mediated by tyrosine-unphosphorylated STAT5 (uSTAT5). Consistent with this concept expression of an unphosphorylatable STAT5B mutant constrained HSC differentiation, promoted HSC maintenance and upregulated transcriptional programs associated with quiescence and stemness. Moreover, treatment with a JAK1/2 inhibitor (ruxolitinib) increased the uSTAT5:pSTAT5 ratio, constrained HSC differentiation and proliferation and promoted HSC maintenance, thus phenocopying uSTAT5B overexpression. Our results therefore reveal a previously unrecognized interplay between pSTAT5 and uSTAT5 in the control of HSC function. In addition the demonstration that JAK inhibition promotes HSC maintenance has implications for gene therapy using HSCs and may contribute to the failure of JAK inhibitors to eradicate myeloproliferative neoplasms.

Project description:HOXA7 regulates FL-HSPC self-renewal in vitro and in vivo. We profiled EB-HSPCs after HOXA7 overexpression (EB-HOXA7), or with a control vector (EB-CTR), to assess the gene expression programs regulated by HOXA7. CD34+CD38-CD43+CD90+ HSPCs were infected with lentiviral FUGW vector either empty (FUGW-GFP) or encoding HOXA7(FUGW-GFP-HOXA7) protein. Cells were expanded on op9 for 15 days and than sorted for GFP HSPC immunophenotype.
