Extracellular annexin-A1 promotes myeloid/granulocytic differentiation of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells via the Ca2+/MAPK signalling transduction pathway.

ABSTRACT: Annexin A1 (AnxA1) modulates neutrophil life span and bone marrow/blood cell trafficking thorough activation of formyl-peptide receptors (FPRs). Here, we investigated the effect of exogenous AnxA1 on haematopoiesis in the mouse. Treatment of C57BL/6 mice with recombinant AnxA1 (rAnxA1) reduced the granulocyte-macrophage progenitor (GMP) population in the bone marrow, enhanced the number of mature granulocytes Gr-1+Mac-1+ in the bone marrow as well as peripheral granulocytic neutrophils and increased expression of mitotic cyclin B1 on hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs)/progenitor cells (Lin-Sca-1+c-Kit+: LSK). These effects were abolished by simultaneous treatment with Boc-2, an FPR pan-antagonist. In in vitro studies, rAnxA1 reduced both HSC (LSKCD90lowFLK-2-) and GMP populations while enhanc
