Transcription of human thrombopoietin-induced megakaryocyte differentiation with and without nicotinamide vs. Universal reference sample

ABSTRACT: Culture of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells in the presence of thrombopoietin induces megakaryocytic differentiation. Addition of nicotinamide to thrombopoietin-stimulated cultures results in significant increases in megkaryocytic differentiation including greater polyploidization and enhanced proplatelet formation. This study focuses on understanding the differences in the temporal gene expression pattern during differentiation with and without nicotinamide. Nicotinamide was added on day 5. Experiment Overall Design: Two biological experiments were analyzed. For each experiment, a sample was taken on day 5, before nicotinamide addition, and on days 6, 8, and 10 from both nicotinamide and control treated cultures. Each sample was analyzed in duplicate for a total of 14 hybridizations per culture or 28 total hybridizations.

Megakaryocytic (Mk) cell maturation involves polyploidisation, and the number of platelets produced increases with Mk DNA content. Ploidy levels in cultured human MK cells are much lower than those observed in vivo. This study demonstrated that adding the water-soluble vitamin nicotinamide (NIC) to mobilised peripheral blood CD34+ cells cultured with thrombopoietin (Tpo) more than doubled the percentage of high-ploidy (> or = 8N) MK cells. This was observed regardless of donor-dependent differen ...[more]

Project description:d9 and d12 Mks were either cultured statically or subjected to shear flow for 30 min; at d9, half the Mks were placed back in culture for 30 min (60 min time point) Megakaryocytes (Mks) are exposed to shear flow as they migrate from the bone marrow hematopoietic compartment into circulation thus releasing platelets and pro/preplatelets directly into the blood stream. Shear forces have been now established as promoting Mk maturation and platelet biogenesis. In order to understand the underlying mechanisms that modulate the response of Mks to shear forces, we carried out transcriptional analysis on immature and mature stem cell-derived Mks that were exposed to physiologically-relevant shear (2.5 dyn/cm2). In immature (d9) Mks, shear exposure upregulated genes related to growth and Mk maturation, while in mature (d12) Mks, it upregulated genes involved in apoptosis and intracellular transport. Following shear-flow exposure, 6 AP-1 transcripts (ATF4, JUNB, JUN, FOSB, FOS, and JUND) were upregulated at d9 and two AP-1 proteins (JunD and c-Fos) were upregulated both at d9 and d12. Our data show that MAPK signaling is linked to both the shear-stress response and AP-1 upregulation. JNK phosphorylation increased significantly following shear stimulation, while JNK inhibition reduced shear-induced JunD protein expression. Although p38 phosphorylation did not increase following shear flow, its inhibition reduced shear-induced JunD and c-Fos protein expression. JNK inhibition reduced fibrinogen binding of d9 and d12 platelet-like particle s (PLPs) and P-selectin expression at d12 PLPs, while p38 inhibition reduced fibrinogen binding of d12 PLPs. Here we show that mechanotransduction of shear forces in Mks results in JNK activation, AP-1 upregulation, and downstream transcriptional changes that promote maturation of immature Mks and platelet biogenesis in mature Mks.

Project description:LuxS is an enzyme involved in the activated methyl cycle. The by-product of this cycle, autoinducer 2 (AI-2), could be an important quorum sensing signal. LuxS was conserved and regulated many behaviors in different bacteria, but in most species, whether the regulations are related to AI-2 mediated quorum sensing is still unknown. In our previous study, Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, the etiologic agent of porcine contagious pleuropneumonia, was found to possess the functional LuxS affecting biofilm formation and virulence. In this study, microarray was used to compare the transcriptional profiles of the A. pleuropneumoniae wildtype strain 4074, luxS mutant and its AI-2 supplemented strain in four different growth phases. The results demonstrated that both LuxS and AI-2 played important roles in metabolism of this bacterium. AI-2 did not recover the gene expression changes caused by luxS deletion but caused more extensive metabolic alterations in the luxS mutant in a concentration dependent manner. Regulations of the genes involved in iron metabolism, carbonhydrate transport and host cell adhesion were validated by real-time RT-PCR and phenotypic investigations under different conditions. The results demonstrated that sugar uptake was repressed by LuxS independent of AI-2. However, iron metabolism, an important process of infection for A. pleuropneumoniae, could be controlled by LuxS through AI-2. Adhesion to host cells was also affected by LuxS and AI-2, but exogenous AI-2 displayed more obvious effects. Our results indicated that both LuxS and AI-2 are essential in the metabolism of A. pleuropneumoniae. The function of LuxS/AI-2 displayed pleiotropic roles in different conditions. AI-2 may not serve as a quorum sensing autoinducer but a metabolite or an environmental cue to affect the metabolism and virulence traits of this important pathogen. A. pleuropneumoniae strains were cultured in TSB medium supplemented with 10 M-NM-<g/ml of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and 10% (v/v) filtered cattle serum at 37M-BM-0C. For samples from the mutant supplemented with AI-2, 100M-NM-<M and 25M-NM-<M AI-2 precursor (DPD) were added into the medium before early exponential phase as well as one hour before late exponential phase to cover the whole growth phase respectively. The samples were collected from early, middle, late exponential phase and stationary phase respectively and the total RNA were extracted using RNA-Solv Reagent (Omega) according to the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys instructions. For each time point, four biological replicates were combined into two samples. The intensities were normalized and transformed into log2 value. The values for each time point were averaged and the genes with log2 ratio >=1 or <=-1 were selected as differentially expressed genes.
