Murine erythroid differentiation kinetics in vivo under normal and anemic stress conditions.

ABSTRACT: Our current understanding of the kinetics and dynamics of erythroid differentiation is based almost entirely on the ex vivo expansion of cultured hematopoietic progenitor cells. In this study, we used an erythroid-specific, inducible transgenic mouse line to investigate for the first time, the in vivo erythroid differentiation kinetics under steady-state conditions. We demonstrated that bipotent premegakaroycyte/erythroid (PreMegE) progenitor cells differentiate into erythroid-committed proerythroblast/basophilic erythroblasts (ProBasoE) after 6.6 days under steady-state conditions. During this process, each differentiation phase (from PreMegE to precolony forming unit-erythroid [PreCFU-E], PreCFU-E to CFU-E, and CFU-E to ProBasoE) took ∼2 days in vivo.
