Project description:Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in the fetal liver mature from pre-HSCs that originate in the major arteries of the embryo. To generate HSCs from other cell sources it will be necessary to reproduce the maturation of HSCs from pre-HSCs ex vivo. We refined the markers used to purify pre-HSCs and HSCs matured ex vivo, and compared the transcriptomes of pre-HSCs, ex vivo matured HSCs, and fetal liver HSCs. We found that maturation of pre-HSCs into HSCs in vivo or ex vivo is accompanied by the downregulation of genes involved in embryonic development and vasculogenesis, and upregulation of genes involved in hematopoietic organ development, lymphoid development, and immune responses. Ex vivo matured HSCs more closely resemble fetal liver HSCs than pre-HSCs, but are not their molecular equivalents. We show that functional ex vivo-matured and fetal liver HSCs increase the expression of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1). PD-L1 does not mark all pre-HSCs, but cell surface PD-L1 was present on functional HSCs after ex vivo culture. PD-L1 signaling, however, is not required for engraftment of embryonic HSCs. Hence, up-regulation of PD-L1 is a correlate of, but not a requirement for HSC maturation.

Project description:The cellular ontogeny of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) remains poorly understood because their isolation from and their identification in early developing small embryos are difficult. We attempted to dissect early developmental stages of HSCs using an in vitro mouse embryonic stem cell (ESC) differentiation system combined with inducible HOXB4 expression. Here we report the identification of pre-HSCs and an embryonic type of HSCs (embryonic HSCs) as intermediate cells between ESCs and HSCs. Both pre-HSCs and embryonic HSCs were isolated by their c-Kit+CD41+CD45- phenotype. Pre-HSCs did not engraft in irradiated adult mice. After co-culture with OP9 stromal cells and conditional expression of HOXB4, pre-HSCs gave rise to embryonic HSCs capable of engraftment and long-term reconstitution in irradiated adult mice. Blast colony assays revealed that most hemangioblast activity was detected apart from the pre-HSC population, implying the early divergence of pre-HSCs from hemangioblasts. Gene expression profiling suggests that a particular set of transcripts closely associated with adult HSCs is involved in the transition of pre-HSC to embryonic HSCs. Experimental strategy consisted of EB formation, co-culture with OP9 cells, and functional assays. iHOXB4 ESCs were allowed to differentiate spontaneously into EBs for 6 days without HOXB4 expression. We decided to fractionate EB6 cells mainly because by day 6 of culture the number of multipotent progenitors reaches a plateau and several surface markers become detectable. CD41 is known as a marker for the initiation of definitive hematopoiesis. CD41 appeared in a significant proportion of EB cells on day 6 of culture. Induced HOXB4 expression during EB formation did not affect the generation of colony forming cells and repopulating cells in the OP9 and iHOXB4 system or the appearance of surface markers in EB cells. EB6 cells were analyzed and sorted by flow cytometry. Sorted EB6 cells were co-cultured with OP9 cells for various days under HOXB4-on or -off conditions. The minimal requirement of the co-culture period appeared to be only 4 days, which is much shorter than previously thought. After a second analysis and fractionation by flow cytometry, cells were subjected to in vivo repopulating assays under HOXB4-on or -off conditions.

Project description:To study the effect of CD27 triggering on HSC biology Ageing of the hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) compartment is characterized by an accumulation of less productive HSCs with impaired lymphoid differentiation capacity, which contributes to age-dependent hematological abnormalities including anemia, myeloproliferative disorders and a decline in adaptive immunity. Since HSCs express the costimulatory receptor CD27 and because inflammation has been associated with HSC ageing, we investigated the effect of stimulation of CD27 by its inflammatory ligand CD70 on HSC maintenance. We found that CD27-triggering during CD70-driven immune activation in young mice enhances HSC self-renewal, leading to accumulation of HSCs to levels comparable with old control mice. These findings indicate that CD27-signaling accelerates HSC ageing, which is supported by the observation that CD27-triggering negatively affects HSC differentiation to the lymphoid lineage and increases myeloid differentiation. This functional change was mirrored by a corresponding difference in gene expression, as microarray analysis indicated that CD27-triggered HSCs have a strongly myeloid-biased gene signature. CD27 signaling also induced enrichment of genes associated with biological processes involved in cellular responses to DNA damage/repair and reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are associated with HSC ageing and related to increased proliferation. Therefore, we postulate that CD27 triggering during chronic inflammation contributes directly to ageing of the hematopoietic compartment.

Project description:How hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) produce specific lineages is not well understood. We searched for key factors that direct HSC to lymphopoiesis. Comparing gene expression profiles for HSCs and early lymphoid progenitors revealed that Satb1, a global chromatin regulator, was significantly induced with lymphoid lineage specification. HSCs from Satb1-null mouse were defective in lymphopoietic activity in culture, and failed to reconstitute T-lymphopoiesis in wild-type recipients. Furthermore, Satb1-transduction in HSCs, as well as in embryonic stem cells, robustly promoted their differentiation toward lymphocytes in culture. We prepared RNA samples from control or Satb1-transfected Lin- c-kitHi Sca-1+ Flt3- cells derived from WT mouse bone marrow.

Project description:Haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are derived early from embryonic precursor cells, such as haemogenic endothelial cells and pre-HSCs. However, the identity of precursor cells remains elusive due to their rareness, transience, and inability to be isolated efficiently. Here we employed potent surface markers to capture the nascent pre-HSCs at 30% purity, as rigorously validated by single-cell-initiated serial transplantation assay. Then we applied single-cell RNA-Seq technique to analyse five populations closely related to HSC formation: endothelial cells, CD45- and CD45+ pre-HSCs in E11 aorta-gonad-mesonephros (AGM) region, and mature HSCs in E12 and E14 foetal liver. In comparison, the pre-HSCs showed unique features in transcriptional machinery, apoptosis, metabolism state, signalling pathway, transcription factor network, and lncRNA expression pattern. Among signalling pathways enriched in pre-HSCs, the mTOR activation was uncovered indispensable for the emergence of HSCs but not haematopoietic progenitors from endothelial cells in vivo. By comparing with proximal populations without HSC potential, the core molecular signature of pre-HSCs was identified. Collectively, our work paves the way for dissection of complex molecular mechanisms regulating the step-wise generation of HSCs in vivo, informing future efforts to engineer HSCs for clinical application.

Project description:Hematopoietic stem cell (HSC)-independent lymphopoiesis has been elucidated in murine embryos. However, our understanding regarding human embryonic counterparts remains limited. Here, we unveiled the presence of human yolk sac-derived lymphoid-biased progenitors (YSLPs) expressing CD34, IL7R, LTB and IRF8 at Carnegie Stage 10, much earlier than the first HSCs emergence. The number and lymphopoietic potential of these progenitors were both significantly higher in yolk sac than embryo proper at this early stage. Importantly, single-cell/bulk culture and CITE-seq have elucidated the tendency of YSLP differentiating into innate lymphoid cells and dendritic cells. Notably, lymphoid progenitors in fetal liver before and after HSCs seeding displayed distinct transcriptional features, with the former closely resembling those of YSLPs.

Project description:Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) primarily reside in the bone marrow where signals generated by stromal cells regulate their self-renewal, proliferation, and trafficking. Endosteal osteoblasts and perivascular stromal cells including endothelial cells3, CXCL12-abundant reticular (CAR) cells, leptin-receptor positive stromal cells, and nestin-GFP positive mesenchymal progenitors have all been implicated in HSC maintenance. However, it is unclear if specific hematopoietic progenitor cell (HPC) subsets reside in distinct niches defined by the surrounding stromal cells and the regulatory molecules they produce. CXCL12 (stromal-derived factor-1, SDF-1) regulates both HSCs and lymphoid progenitors and is expressed by all of these stromal cell populations. Here, we selectively deleted Cxcl12 from candidate niche stromal cell populations and characterized the effect on HPCs. Deletion of Cxcl12 from mineralizing osteoblasts has no effect on HSCs or lymphoid progenitors. Deletion of Cxcl12 from osterix-expressing stromal cells, which includes CAR cells and osteoblasts, results in constitutive HPC mobilization and a loss of B lymphoid progenitors, but HSC function is normal. Cxcl12 deletion in endothelial cells results in a modest loss of long-term repopulating activity. Strikingly, deletion of Cxcl12 in nestin-negative mesenchymal progenitors using Prx1-Cre is associated with a marked loss of HSCs, long-term repopulating activity, HSC quiescence, and common lymphoid progenitors. These data suggest that osterix-expressing stromal cells comprise a distinct niche that supports B lymphoid progenitors and retains HPC in the bone marrow, while expression of CXCL12 from stromal cells in the perivascular region, including endothelial cells and mesenchymal progenitors, support HSCs. Total of three samples of two groups analyzed. Replica samples of CXCL12-abundant reticular (CAR) cells from two CXCL12-GFP knock-in mice and a combined sample of PDGFRa+ Sca+ CD45- lineage- cells from three Prx1-Cre Rosa26Ai9/+ Cxcl12gfp/+ mice were used and analyzed.
