Single Cell Transcriptome Mapping of Human Thymopoiesis Reveals a Continuum of Cell States During T-Lineage Specification and Commitment

ABSTRACT: Single cell studies elucidating the transcriptional continuum underpinning lineage commitment in the human bone marrow (BM) have advanced the understanding of hematopoiesis beyond the classic hierarchical model. However, T-lineage commitment, which occurs in the thymus remains incompletely defined. We mapped single cell transcriptomes spanning post-natal human thymopoiesis including the earliest progenitors. Instead of previously described discrete populations, transcriptional and lineage assay data resolved a continuum of novel cell states within CD34+ thymic progenitor cells. The initial stages of thymopoiesis involve multilineage priming of single cells followed by a gradual transition to T-commitment, a continuum previously undescribed outside the BM. Early progenitors express a hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) like profile but unlike HSC show initiation of T-priming. Species related differences exist in the earliest progenitor cells.

Recapitulation of murine thymopoiesis in vitro from single hematopoietic stem cells

Project description:We report a serum-free, 3-D murine artificial thymic organoid (ATO) system that mimics normal murine thymopoiesis from four different mouse strains with the production of all T cell populations, from early thymic progenitors to functional single positive (CD8SP and CD4SP) TCRaband TCRyd cells. RNA sequencing aligned ATO-derived populations with phenotypically identical primary thymocytes. ATOs initiated with Rag1-/- marrow produced the same differentiation block as seen in the endogenous thymus, and Notch signaling patterns in ATOs mirrored primary thymopoiesis. ATOs initiated with defined hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and progenitors from marrow and thymus recapitulated subsequent stages and the normal kinetics of T cell differentiation. Remarkably, a single HSC deposited into ATOs generated a complete trajectory of T cell differentiation producing a similar diverse TCR repertoire across clones. ATOs represent a technically simple, highly reproducible and powerful experimental platform for the study of clonal thymopoiesis from HSCs.

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.

Lymphoid Priming in Human Bone Marrow Begins Prior to CD10 Expression with Up-Regulation of L-selectin

Project description:Studies of adult human hematopoiesis have until now relied on the expression of CD10 to define lymphoid commitment. We report a novel lymphoid-primed population in human bone marrow that is generated from hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) prior to the onset of CD10 expression and B cell commitment, and is identified by high levels of the homing molecule L-selectin (CD62L). CD10-CD62Lhi progenitors have full lymphoid (B/T/NK) potential, and show reduced myeloid and absent erythroid potential. Genome-wide gene expression analysis demonstrates that the CD10-CD62Lhi population represents an intermediate stage of differentiation between CD34+CD38- HSC and CD34+lin-CD10+ progenitors marked by down-regulation of TAL1 and MPL, upregulation of E2A, CD3E and IL2RG expression, and absent B cell commitment or RAG1/2 expression. Immature CD34+CD1a- thymocytes are also CD62Lhi and L-selectin ligands are expressed at the cortico-medullary junction, suggesting a possible role for L-selectin in human thymic homing. These studies identify the earliest stage of lymphoid priming in human bone marrow. Freshly harvested human bone marrow was ficoll purified, enriched for CD34+, and then FACS sorted. It was then sorted into 3 samples CD34+CD38-, CD34+ CD10- CD62L++, and CD34+ CD10+, with 3 independent biological replicates

Quantitative proteomics of Hematopoietic Stem Cells during acute inflammation

Project description:Infections are associated with extensive consumption of blood platelets representing a high risk for health. How the hematopoietic system coordinates the rapid and efficient regeneration of this particular lineage during such stress scenarios remains unclear. Here we report that the phenotypic hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) compartment contains highly potent megakaryocyte-committed progenitors (hipMkPs), a cell population that shares many features with multipotent HSCs and serves as a lineage-restricted emergency pool for inflammatory insults. Our data show that during homeostasis, hipMkPs are maintained in a primed but quiescent state, thus contributing little to steady-state megakaryopoiesis. Moreover, homeostatic hipMkPs show expression of megakaryocyte lineage priming transcripts for which protein synthesis is suppressed. We demonstrate that acute inflammatory signaling instructs activation of hipMkPs, as well as Mk protein production from pre-existing transcripts and drives a rapid maturation of hipMkPs and other Mk progenitors. This results in an efficient regeneration of platelets that are lost during inflammatory insult. Thus, our study reveals an elegant emergency machinery that counteracts life-threating depletions in the platelet pool during acute inflammation.

Memory of cell divisions directs the continuous process of primitive hematopoietic lineage commitment

Project description:Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) exist in a dormant state, and progressively lose regenerative potency as they undergo successive divisions. Why this functional decline occurs and how this information is encoded is unclear. To better understand how this information is stored, we performed RNA sequencing on HSC populations differing only in their divisional history. Comparative analysis revealed that genes upregulated with divisions are enriched for lineage commitment factors, and are regulated by cell cycle-associated transcription factors, indicating that proliferation itself drives primitive hematopoietic lineage priming. In contrast, downregulated genes are associated with an HSC signature and are targeted by the Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2). We find that Ezh2 targets HSC signature genes for repression, and a divisional history-dependent switch from Ezh1 to Ezh2 underlies HSC decline with progressive divisions. Thus cell divisions drive lineage priming and Ezh2 accumulation, which represses HSC signature genes and consolidates information on divisional history into memory.

Effect of BCL11B knockdown on transcriptome of human T-cell precursors

Project description:To investigate the role of BCL11B in the initial stages of human thymopoiesis, we performed loss of function (knockdown) studies in an in vitro human thymopoiesis model (cord blood CD34+ cells co-cultured on OP9DLL1 stromal cell line). Gene expression profiling by RNA-Seq demonstrated that BCL11B knockdown resulted in downregulation of T-lineage genes and upregulation of stem cell, myeloid and NK genes, indicating BCL11B is required for the establishment of a T-lineage commitment transcriptional program.
