Project description:Hematopoiesis in adult mammals involves cognate interactions between developing hematopoietic cells and bone marrow stromal cell niches. SCF and CXCL12 play key roles in the maintenance of HSC, while early B cell differentiation requires CXCL12 and IL7. In this study, we characterized mouse BM stromal cells expressing IL7 by performing a transcriptomic analysis. We found that SCF, CXCL12 and IL7 were co-expressed by a unique peri-sinusoidal stromal cell subset.

Project description:In the bone marrow, CXCL12 and IL7 are essential for B cell differentiation whereas hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) maintenance requires SCF and CXCL12. Previous studies, including ours, indicate that peri-sinusoidal stromal (PSS) cells are heterogeneous and that part of them express and are the main source of IL7. Our single cell qPCR and transcriptomic analysis demonstrate that SCF, CXCL12 and IL7 are co-expressed by a unique peri-sinusoidal stromal cell subset.
Project description:ATAC-seq profiling of Nfat5 KO and wild type macrophages derived from bone marrow (primary cells), treated or not with Lipopolysaccharide (LPS).
Project description:Cellular sources of liver endothelial cells remain elusive. Here, we used irradiation-conditioned bone marrow chimeric mice to lineage trace the endothelial cells. Bone marrow-derived (YFP+) and resident (YFP-) liver endothelial cells were isolated and total RNA were used for microarray analysis using Clariom S mouse assays (Applied Biosystems).
Project description:Subcutanesouly tumors from both Bmal1+/+ and Bmal1-/- mice were used to isolated stromal vascular fractions (SVF). Tumor cells with GFP+ signals were exclusive. Remain GFP- cells were collected to do RNAseq.
