Cell size is a determinant of stem cell potential during aging (HSC treatments RNA-seq dataset)

ABSTRACT: Stem cells are remarkably small in size. Human hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) measure a mere 7 μm in diameter. Whether small size is important for stem cell function is unknown. We find that murine HSCs enlarge under conditions known to decrease stem cell function. This decreased fitness of large HSCs is due to reduced proliferative potential. We further show that preventing HSC enlargement by inhibiting macromolecule biosynthesis or reducing the size of large HSCs by shortening G1 averts the loss of stem cell potential. Naturally large HSCs also exhibit decreased stem cell potential indicating that large size characterizes exhausted HSCs under physiological conditions. Finally, we show that our findings are relevant to aging. A fraction of murine and human HSCs enlarge during aging. Preventing this age-dependent enlargement improves HSC function. We conclude that small cell size is important for stem cell function and propose that stem cell enlargement contributes to their functional decline during aging.

Rad21-mediated NF-κB signaling limits hematopoietic stem cell self-renewal in aging and inflammation

Project description:MTD project_description Inflammation and decreased stem cell function characterize organism aging, yet the relationship between these factors remains incompletely understood. This study shows that aged hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells exhibit increased ground-stage NF-κB activity, which enhances their responsiveness to undergo differentiation and loss of self-renewal in response to inflammation. The study identifies Rad21/cohesin as a critical mediator of NF-κB signals, by increasing chromatin accessibility of inter-/intra-genic and enhancer regions. Rad21/NF-κB are required for normal differentiation, but limit self-renewal of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) during aging and inflammation in an NF-κB dependent manner. HSCs from aged mice fail to downregulate Rad21/cohesin and inflammation/differentiation inducing signals in the resolution phase after acute inflammation. and The inhibition of cohesin/NF-κB is sufficient to revert the hypersensitivity of aged HSPCs to inflammation-induced differentiation. During aging, myeloid-biased HSCs with disrupted and naturally occurring reduced expression of Rad21/cohesin are increasingly selected over lymphoid-biased HSCs. Together, Rad21/cohesin mediated NF-κB signaling limits HSPC function during aging and selects for cohesin deficient HSCs with myeloid skewed differentiation.

Transcription profiling of hematopoietic stem cell aging

Project description:Loss of immune function and an increased incidence of myeloid leukemia are two of the most clinically significant consequences of aging of the hematopoietic system. To better understand the mechanisms underlying hematopoietic aging, we evaluated the cell intrinsic functional and molecular properties of highly purified long-term hematopoietic stem cells (LT-HSCs) from young and old mice. We found that LT-HSC aging was accompanied by cell autonomous changes, including increased stem cell self-renewal, differential capacity to generate committed myeloid and lymphoid progenitors, and diminished lymphoid potential. Expression profiling revealed that LT-HSC aging was accompanied by the systemic down-regulation of genes mediating lymphoid specification and function and up-regulation of genes involved in specifying myeloid fate and function. Moreover, LT-HSCs from old mice expressed elevated levels of many genes involved in leukemic transformation. These data support a model in which age-dependent alterations in gene expression at the stem cell level presage downstream developmental potential and thereby contribute to age-dependent immune decline, and perhaps also to the increased incidence of leukemia in the elderly.

Comparative analysis of Cd61 high and Cd61 low populations of HSCs in M.musculus C97/Bl6 mice.

Project description:Aging leads to a decline in function of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and increases susceptibility to hematological disease. We found CD61 to be highly expressed in aged HSCs. Here we investigate the role of CD61 in identifying distinct subpopulations of aged HSCs and assess how expression of CD61 affects stem cell function. We show that HSCs with high expression of CD61 are functionality superior and retain self-renewal capacity in serial transplantations. A population of aged HSCs with highest CD61 expression is functionally comparable to young HSCs. These CD61High HSCs display a notably higher quiescence compared to their CD61Low counterparts. We also show that CD61High and CD61Low HSCs are transcriptomically distinct populations within aged HSCs. Collectively, our research identifies CD61 as a key player in maintaining stem cell quiescence during aging, ensuring the preservation of their functional integrity and potential. Moreover, CD61 emerges as a marker to prospectively isolate a superior, highly dormant population of young and aged HSCs, making it a valuable tool both in fundamental and clinical research.

Distinct TNF Receptors Dictate Stem Cell Fitness Versus Lineage Output in Clonal Hematopoiesis of Aging

Project description:Clonal hematopoiesis of aging results from enhanced fitness of mutant hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and associates with both favorable and unfavorable health outcomes related to lineage cell types produced by mutant HSCs. The extent to which lineage output can be controlled in clonal hematopoiesis is unknown. Using a mouse model of DNMT3AR882/+ clonal hematopoiesis (Dnmt3aR878H/+), we find that aging-induced TNFα signaling drives selective advantage of mutant HSCs concomitant with B lymphoid lineage production. Genetic loss of TNFα receptor TNFR1 impaired mutant HSC fitness while loss of TNFR2 abrogated lymphoid production and resulted in unrestrained myeloid cell production from mutant HSCs. These results support a model where clone size and lineage output can be independently targeted to harness potential beneficial aspects of clonal hematopoiesis.

An Epigenetic Component of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Aging Amenable to Reprogramming Into a Young State

Project description:Aging of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) leads to several functional changes, including alterations affecting self-renewal and differentiation. While it is well established that many of the age-induced changes are intrinsic to HSCs, less is known about the stability of this state. Here, we entertained the hypothesis that HSC aging is driven by the acquisition of permanent genetic mutations. To examine this issue at a functional level in vivo, we applied induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell reprogramming of aged hematopoietic progenitors and allowed the resulting aged-derived iPS cells to reform hematopoiesis via blastocyst complementation. Next, we functionally characterized iPS-derived HSCs in primary chimeras and following the transplantation of 're-differentiated' HSCs into new hosts; the gold standard to assess HSC function. Our data demonstrate remarkably similar functional properties of iPS-derived and endogenous blastocyst-derived HSCs, despite the extensive chronological and proliferative age of the former. Our results therefore favor a model in which an underlying, but reversible, epigenetic component is a hallmark of HSC aging rather than being driven by an increased DNA mutation burden. Hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) have been sorted out from young and aged steady-state mice, and from recipients transplanted with young and aged bone marrow. Generated iPS and commercially available ES cells were also sorted and analyzed.

Hsf1 promotes hematopoietic stem cell fitness and proteostasis in response to ex vivo culture stress and aging II

Project description:Maintaining proteostasis is key to resisting stress and to promoting healthy aging. Proteostasis is necessary to preserve stem cell function, but little is known about the mechanisms that regulate proteostasis during stress in stem cells, and whether disruptions in proteostasis contribute stem cell aging is largely unexplored. We determined that ex vivo cultured mouse and human hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) rapidly increase protein synthesis. This challenge to HSC proteostasis was associated with nuclear accumulation of Hsf1, and deletion of Hsf1 impaired HSC maintenance ex vivo. Strikingly, supplementing cultures with small molecules that enhance Hsf1 activation partially suppressed protein synthesis, rebalanced proteostasis, and supported retention of HSC serial reconstituting activity. Although Hsf1 was dispensable for young adult HSCs in vivo, Hsf1 deficiency increased protein synthesis and impaired the reconstituting activity of middle-aged HSCs. Hsf1 thus promotes proteostasis and the regenerative activity of HSCs in response to culture stress and aging.

Mitochondrial hetereogeneity in hematopoietic stem cells (HSC)

Project description:Quiescence is a fundamental property that maintains hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs)’ potency throughout life. Quiescent HSCs are thought to rely on glycolysis for their energy but the overall metabolic properties of HSCs remain incompletely understood. Using combined approaches including single cell RNA-Seq we show that mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) distinguishes the quiescent from cycling-primed HSCs. We found that primed but not quiescent HSCs relied readily on glycolysis. Notably, in vivo inhibition of glycolysis robustly enhanced the competitive repopulation ability of primed HSCs. We further show that HSC quiescence is maintained by an abundance of large lysosomes. Repression of lysosomal activation led to further enlargement of lysosomes, while repressing mTOR activation and glucose uptake. This also induced increased lysosomal sequestration of mitochondria and enhanced the competitive repopulation ability of primed HSCs by over 90-fold in vivo. These findings show that restraining lysosomal activity is key in preserving HSC quiescence and potency, and may be therapeutically relevant.
