Deficiency in Fpr2 results in reduced numbers of Lin^-cKit⁺Sca1⁺ myeloid progenitor cells.

ABSTRACT: The Lin^-c-Kit⁺ Sca-1⁺ cell population in the bone marrow (BM) serves as the direct precursor for differentiation of myeloid cells. In this study, we report that deficiency in Fpr2, a G protein-coupled chemoattractant receptor in mice, is associated with reduced BM nucleated cells, including CD31⁺Ly6C⁺ (granulocytes and monocytes), CD31^-/Ly6C^int (granuloid cells), and CD31^-/Ly6C^high (predominantly monocytes) cells. In particular, the number of Lin^-c-Kit⁺Sca-1⁺ (LKS) cells was reduced in Fpr2^-/- mouse BM. This was supported by observations of the reduced incorporation of intraperitoneally injected bromodeoxyuridine by cells in the c-Kit⁺ population from Fpr2^-/- mouse BM. Purified c-Kit⁺ cells from Fpr2^-/- mice showed reduced expansion when cultured in vitro with stem cell factor (SCF). SCF/c-Kit-mediated phosphorylation of P38, STAT1, Akt (Thr-308), and Akt (Ser-473) was also significantly reduced in c-Kit⁺ cells from Fpr2^-/- mice. Furthermore, Fpr2 agonists enhanced SCF-induced proliferation of c-Kit⁺ cells. Colony-forming unit assays revealed that CFU-granulocyte-macrophage formation of BM cells from Fpr2^-/- mice was significantly reduced. After heat-inactivated bacterial stimulation in the airway, the expansion of c-kit⁺ Sca-1⁺ cells in BM and recruitment of Ly6G⁺ cells to the lungs and CD11b⁺Ly6C⁺TNF?⁺ cells to the spleen of Fpr2^-/- mice was significantly reduced. These results demonstrate an important role for Fpr2 in the development of myeloid lineage precursors in mouse BM.

Project description:The RUNX genes encode for transcription factors involved in development and human disease. RUNX1 and RUNX3 are frequently associated with leukemias, yet the basis for their involvement in leukemogenesis is not fully understood. Here we show that Runx1;Runx3 double knockout (DKO) mice exhibited lethal phenotypes due to bone marrow failure and myeloproliferative disorder. These contradictory clinical manifestations are reminiscent of human inherited bone marrow failure syndromes like Fanconi anemia (FA), caused by defective DNA repair. Indeed, Runx1;Runx3 DKO cells showed mitomycin C hypersensitivity, due to impairment of monoubiquitinated-FANCD2 recruitment to DNA damage foci, although FANCD2 monoubiquitination in the FA pathway was unaffected. RUNX1 and RUNX3 interact with FANCD2 independent of CBFM-NM-2, suggesting non-transcriptional role for RUNX in DNA repair. These findings suggest that RUNX dysfunction causes DNA repair defect, besides transcriptional misregulation, and promotes development of leukemias and other cancers. 6 mice were analyzed in this study. 3 Runx1;Runx3 double knockout cKit+Sca1+Lin- hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells were compared with their wild type littermate controls. RNA was isolated from 3 independent Runx1;Runx3 WT KSL samples, each pooled from 3 Runx1;Runx3 WT mice, and 3 independent Runx1;Runx3 DKO KSL samples, using the RNeasy Micro Kit (QIAgen). RNA integrity and quantity was assessed using the Agilent 2000 Bioanalyzer system. 3 M-NM-<g to 5 M-NM-<g RNA was processed using WT-Ovation Pico RNA Amplification System (NuGEN) paired with the WT-Ovation Exon Module and FL-Ovation cDNA Biotin Module (NuGEN). A detailed protocol in the userM-bM-^@M-^Ys guide kit was used without modification. cDNA were prepared for hybridization on GeneChip Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Arrays (Affymetrix) according to the instructions in GeneChip Hybridization Wash and Stain Kit for ST arrays (Affymetrix). Microarray hybridization, scanning and preliminary MAS 5.0 normalizations were completed at the A*STAR Biopolis Shared Facilities (BSF).

Project description:Purpose: the goal of this study is to investigate the consequences of ubiquitin specific protease 15 (USP15) deletion on gene expression in mouse LSK hematopoietic progenitors. Methods: mRNA profiles of 8 weeks-old wild-type (WT) and ubiquitin specific protease 15 knockout (Usp15−/−) mice were generated by deep sequencing using Illumina Hiseq2500. The sequence reads that passed quality filters Alignments of the sequence reads that passed quality filters were performed using TopHat2.1, Genome build 38 and Ensembl gtf version 77 and genecounts have been generated using Itreecount. https://github.com/NKI-GCF/itreecount Results: We assigned about 30 million reads per sample uniquely to a gene of the mouse reference genome (mm10) We identified 21,219 genes in the LSKs of WT and Usp15−/− mice using TopHat2.1 in combination with Itreecount. https://github.com/NKI-GCF/itreecount. Distinct LSK-specific expressed genes (such as Eng, Tek, the MlI receptor and the Kit receptor) are identified. Comparison of normalized gene expression data for Usp15-/- versus WT LSK confirmed the loss of Usp15. Apart from Usp15, almost no other significantly deregurated genes were detected using a treshold of fold change ≥1.5 and p value <0.05, suggesting the maintenance of an overall stable identity of the cellular compartment in Usp15-/- mice. Conclusions: Our results represent the first detailed analyis of the consequences of USP15 deletion on gene expression in hematopoietic populations such as LSKs progenitors by genome wide expression profiling in WT and Usp15-/- mice. RNAseq of two freshly isolated biological replicas of sorted LSKs from 8 weeks old Usp15-/- animals confirmed the loss of Usp15, while showing almost no significant other up or down regulated genes among the 21,219 genes identified in Usp15-/- LSKs. We conclude that young adult hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (LSKs) perpetuated a stable gene expression program regardless of the homozygous deletion of USP15.
