Targeting JNK Pathway Expands Human Hematopoietic Stem Cells

ABSTRACT: The limited number of human hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) has restrained their widespread clinical application. Despite great efforts in recent years, the in vitro expansion of HSCs remains a challenge due to incomplete understanding of the signaling networks underlying HSC self-renewal. Here we show that culturing human cord blood (CB) CD34+ cells with JNK-IN-8, an inhibitor of the JNK signaling pathway, can enhance the self-renewal of HSCs with a 6-fold increase in number. These expanded CD34+ cells repopulated recipient mice for 20 weeks and can form secondary engraftment that lasted for more than 21 weeks. Knockdown of c-Jun, a major downstream target in the JNK pathway, significantly promoted the expansion of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). Our findings demonstrate a critical role of JNK pathway in regulating HSC expansion, provide new insights into HSC self-renewal mechanism, and may lead to improved clinical application of HSCs.

miR-125a Confers Multi-Lineage Long-Term Repopulating Stem Cell Activity to Murine and Human Hematopoietic Progenitors

Project description:Umbilical cord blood (CB) is a non-invasive, convenient and broadly used source of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) for allogeneic stem cell transplantation. However, limiting numbers of HSCs remain a major constraint for its clinical application. One feasible option would be to expand HSCs to improve therapeutic outcome, however available protocols and the molecular mechanisms governing the self-renewal of HSC are unclear. Here we show that ectopic expression of a single miRNA, miR-125a, in purified murine and human multipotent progenitors (MPP) resulted in increased self-renewal and robust long-term multi-lineage repopulation in transplanted recipient mice. Using quantitative proteomics and Western blot analysis, we identified a restricted set of miR-125a targets which revealed the involvement of the MAP kinase signaling pathway in conferring long-term repopulating capacity to multipotent progenitors in human and mice. Our findings offer the innovative potential to use MPP with enhanced self-renewal activity to augment limited sources of HSC to improve clinical protocols.

Human hematopoietic stem cell expansion through modulation of lineage-associated gene expression programs

Project description:Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) must balance self-renewal and lineage differentiation to regenerate the hematopoietic system throughout life. HSCs exhibit lineage-associated gene expression that keeps them responsive to demands of mature blood production. However, it is not known whether this process, termed lineage priming, directly influences HSC self-renewal. We investigated the link between stemness and lineage priming by attenuating the early lymphoid transcription factor E47 through ID2 over-expression (OE). Transcriptional profiling of ID2 OE HSCs showed down regulation of B-cell factors including EBF1 and FOXO1 with a concomitant increase in stemness programs and myeloerythroid factors including CEBPA and GATA1. This resulted in myeloid commitment bias from the earliest stages of differentiation. HSC self-renewal was strongly affected by this lineage perturbation resulting in an 11-fold expansion of HSCs. Thus, early lymphoid transcription factors antagonize human HSC self-renewal, providing a direct link between differentiation program priming and the maintenance of stem cell self-renewal. Three independent lineage depleted CB samples were transduced with P-CTRL or P-ID2 and injected into 5 mice (30 mice total). From every group of 5 mice, human lin- cells were isolated and GFP+CD34+CD38-CD45RA- HSPCs were sorted by FACS.

Regulatory Role of S100A6 in Hematopoetic Stem Cells

Project description:The fate options of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) include self-renewal, differentiation, migration and apoptosis, but the interaction between intracellular Ca2+ and cytoplasmic chaperon protein in regulating fate options of long term-HSCs (LT-HSC) is unknown. We created a S100A6 conditional knockout mouse model in the hematopoietic system and our studies showed that in S100A6KO, the number of LT-HSCs was significantly reduced and HSCs engrafted poorly. After 5FU challenge, the frequency of S100A6KO HSCs remained significantly low. Our data showed that S100A6 failed to self-renew through Akt pathway in an intracellular calcium (Cai2+)-dependent manner. Expression profiling of S100A6KO obtained from gene signatures revealed that cytosolic calcium level and proteins translocation to mitochondria were decreased. Mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation was impaired in S100A6KO. Proteomic data indicated Hsp90 protein and chaperonin family were reduced. Our findings demonstrated that S100A6 regulates fate options of HSCs self-renewal through integrating Akt signaling, specifically governing mitochondria metabolic function and protein quality.

Oncogenic Nras has a bimodal effect on hematopoietic stem cells promoting proliferation and self-renewal

Project description:Pre-leukemic mutations are thought to promote clonal expansion of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) by increasing self-renewal and competitiveness. However, mutations that increase HSC proliferation tend to reduce competitiveness and self-renewal potential, raising the question of how a mutant HSC can sustainably outcompete wild-type HSCs. Activating mutations in NRAS are prevalent in human myeloproliferative disease and leukemia. Here we show that a single allele of oncogenic NrasG12D increases HSC proliferation but also increases reconstituting and self-renewal potential upon serial transplantation in irradiated mice, all without immortalizing HSCs or causing leukemia in our experiments. NrasG12D also confers long-term self-renewal potential upon multipotent progenitors. To explore the mechanism by which NrasG12D promotes HSC proliferation and self-renewal we assessed HSC cell cycle kinetics using H2B-GFP label retention. We found that NrasG12D had a bimodal effect on HSCs, increasing the proliferation of some HSCs while increasing the quiescence and competitiveness of other HSCs. One signal can therefore increase HSC proliferation, competitiveness, and self-renewal through a bimodal effect that promotes proliferation in some HSCs and quiescence in others. 12 RNA samples from mouse bone marrows were analyzed. There are three biological replicates for each subtype.

Transcription profiling of mouse normal LT-HSC vs ST-HSC

Project description:Self-renewal is a defining characteristic of stem cells, however the molecular pathways underlying its regulation are poorly understood. Here we demonstrate that conditional inactivation of the Pbx1 proto-oncogene in the hematopoietic compartment results in a progressive loss of long-term hematopoietic stem cells (LT-HSCs) that is associated with concomitant reduction in their quiescence, leading to a defect in the maintenance of self-renewal as assessed by serial transplantation. Transcriptional profiling revealed that multiple stem cell maintenance factors are perturbed in Pbx1-deficient LT-HSCs, which prematurely express a large subset of genes, including cell cycle regulators, normally expressed in non-self-renewing multipotent progenitors. Experiment Overall Design: LT-HSC (Lin-cKit+Sca1+CD34-CD135-) and ST-HSC (Lin-cKit+Sca1+CD34+CD135-) cells were prospectively sorted from the BM of MxCre-.Pbx1f/f control mice harvested 4 weeks after the last injection of poly(I:C).

Molecular characterization of hematopoietic stem cells after in vitro amplification on biomimetic 3D PDMS cell culture scaffoldsMolecular characterization of hematopoietic stem cells after in vitro amplification on biomimetic 3D PDMS cell culture scaffolds

Project description:Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is successfully applied since the late 1950s, however, its efficacy still needs to be improved. A promising strategy is to transplant high numbers of pluripotent hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Therefore, an advanced ex vivo culture system is needed that supports the proliferation and maintains the pluripotency of HSC to override possible limitations in cell numbers gained from donors. To model the natural HSC niche in vitro and thus, to amplify high numbers of undifferentiated HSCs, we used an optimized HSC cell culture medium in combination with artificial 3D bone marrow-like scaffolds made of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). After 14 days in vitro (DIV) cell culture, we performed transcriptome and proteome analysis of the whole cell populations. Ingenuity pathway analysis (IPA) indicated that our 3D PDMS cell culture scaffolds activated interleukin, SREBP, mTOR and FOXO signaling pathways as well as the HSC metabolism, which we confirmed by ELISA, Western blot and metabolic flux analysis. These molecular signaling pathways and HSC metabolism are well known to promote the expansion HSCs and are involved in their pluripotency maintenance. After selection and enrichment of immature CD34-positive/CD38-negative HSCs using FACS sorting, we could confirm our findings by another proteome analysis followed by IPA. Thus, we could show that our 3D bone marrow-like PDMS scaffolds activate key molecular signaling pathways to amplify the numbers of undifferentiated HSC efficiently ex vivo.

Transcription profiling of mouse long term HSC from control or Pbx1-null mice

Project description:Self-renewal is a defining characteristic of stem cells, however the molecular pathways underlying its regulation are poorly understood. Here we demonstrate that conditional inactivation of the Pbx1 proto-oncogene in the hematopoietic compartment results in a progressive loss of long-term hematopoietic stem cells (LT-HSCs) that is associated with concomitant reduction in their quiescence, leading to a defect in the maintenance of self-renewal as assessed by serial transplantation. Transcriptional profiling revealed that multiple stem cell maintenance factors are perturbed in Pbx1-deficient LT-HSCs, which prematurely express a large subset of genes, including cell cycle regulators, normally expressed in non-self-renewing multipotent progenitors. A significant proportion of Pbx1-dependent genes are associated with the Tgf-b pathway, which serves a major role in maintaining HSC quiescence. Pbx1-deficient LT-HSCs are unable to up-regulate the cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor p57 in response to Tgf-b, providing a mechanism through which Pbx1 maintenance of stem cell self-renewal is achieved. Experiment Overall Design: Highly efficient Pbx1 deletion was induced with poly(I:C) in 3 young MxCre+.Pbx1f/f mutant or 2 MxCre-.Pbx1f/f control mice. LT-HSC (Lin-cKit+Sca1+CD34-CD135-) cells were prospectively sorted from bone marrow of individual mice harvested 4 weeks after the last injection of poly(I:C).

CD34+ HSPC CITE-seq for day 0 and Day 1 and Day 4 under VPA

Project description:The regenerative potential of human hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) is well established by to their ability of life-long blood cell production and cure of a wide range of hematological diseases upon transplantation. This regenerative potential depends on HSC self-renewal and the coordinated adaptation to metabolic stress conditions. This is especially critical during ex vivo culture/manipulation of HSCs that is frequently accompanied with loss of self-renewal potential resulting in stem cell exhaustion. We have previously reported that CD34+ human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC) can be efficiently reprogrammed and expanded to phenotypic HSCs with long-term repopulation capacity in the presence of cytokines and valproic acid (VPA). Here, we present evidence that the SIRT1-SIRT3 axis maintains the mitochondrial activity below a critical threshold by coordinating and retaining a transcriptional and metabolic landscape of human HSCs with long-term self-renewal properties during ex vivo HSC reprogramming.
