Next Generation Sequencing of LSK EpCAM+ and EpCAM- of Zeb1-/-

ABSTRACT: Zeb1, a zinc finger E-box binding homeobox epithelial-mesenchymal (EMT) transcription factor, confers properties of ‘stemness’, such as self-renewal, in cancer. Yet little is known about the function of Zeb1 in adult stem cells. Here, we used the hematopoietic system, as a well-established paradigm of stem cell biology, to evaluate Zeb1 mediated regulation of adult stem cells. We employed a conditional genetic approach using the Mx1-Cre system to specifically knockout (KO) Zeb1 in adult hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and their downstream progeny. Acute genetic deletion of Zeb1 led to rapid onset thymic atrophy and apoptosis driven loss of thymocytes and T cells. A profound cell-autonomous self-renewal defect and multi-lineage differentiation block was observed in Zeb1 KO HSCs. Loss of Zeb1 in HSCs activated transcriptional programs of deregulated HSC maintenance and multi-lineage differentiation genes, and of cell polarity, consisting of cytoskeleton, lipid metabolism/lipid membrane and cell adhesion related genes. Notably, Epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) expression was prodigiously upregulated in Zeb1 KO HSCs, which correlated with their enhanced cell survival capacity and diminished differentiation in transplantation. Thus, Zeb1 acts as a crucial transcriptional regulator in hematopoiesis, co-ordinating HSC self-renewal and multi-lineage differentiation fates, in part, via EpCAM repression.

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.

de novo DNA Methylation Balances Hematopoietic Stem Cell Self-Renewal and Differentiation

Project description:Cytosine methylation is an epigenetic mark usually associated with gene repression. Despite a requirement for de novo DNA methylation for differentiation of embryonic stem cells, its role in somatic stem cells is unknown. Using conditional ablation, we show that loss of either, or both, Dnmt3a or Dnmt3b, progressively impedes hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) differentiation during serial in vivo passage. Concomitantly, HSC self-renewal is immensely augmented in absence of either Dnmt3, particularly Dnmt3a. Dnmt3-KO HSCs show upregulation of HSC multipotency genes and downregulation of early differentiation factors, and the differentiated progeny of Dnmt3-KO HSCs exhibit hypomethylation and incomplete repression of HSC-specific genes. HSCs lacking Dnmt3a manifest hyper-methylation of CpG islands and hypo-methylation of genes which are highly correlated with human hematologic malignancies. These data establish that aberrant DNA methylation has direct pathologic consequences for somatic stem cell development, leading to inefficient differentiation and maintenance of a self-renewal program. Reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (MspI,~40-220bp size fraction) of secondarily-transplanted wild-type and Dnmt3a conditional knockout hematopoietic stem cells. We used microarrays to detail the global expression of genes in secondarily-transplanted control-HSCs and Dnmt3a-KO-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.

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.

Aspartyl-tRNA synthetase 2 orchestrates iron-sulfur metabolism in hematopoietic stem cells via fine-tuning alternative RNA splicing

Project description:Aspartyl-tRNA synthetase 2 (Dars2) is involved in the regulation of mitochondrial protein synthesis and tissue-specific mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPRmt). The role of Dars2 in the self-renewal and differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) is unknown. Here we show that knockout (KO) of Dars2 significantly impairs the maintenance of HSCs and progenitor cells (HSPCs) without involving its tRNA synthetase activity. Dars2 KO results in significantly reduced expression of Srsf2/3/6 and impairs multiple events of mRNA alternative splicing (AS). Dars2 directly localizes to Srsf3 labeled spliceosomes in HSPCs and regulates the stability of Srsf3. Dars2-deficient HSPCs exhibit aberrant AS of mTOR and Slc22a17. Dars2 KO greatly suppresses the levels of labile ferrous iron and iron-sulfur cluster containing proteins, which dampens mitochondrial metabolic activity and DNA damage repair pathway in HSPCs. Our study reveals that Dars2 plays an unprecedented role in the iron-sulfur metabolism and maintenance of HSPCs by modulating RNA splicing.

MicroRNA array analysis of Pbx1-deficient and control murine HSCs and Flk2neg MPPs

Project description:The balance of self-renewal and differentiation is crucial to ensure the homeostasis of the hematopoietic system, and is a key hallmark of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs); however, the underlying molecular pathways are not completely understood, including the role of micro-RNAs. To assess micro-RNA contributions, we performed micro-RNA profiling of HSCs and their immediate downstream progeny multi-potent progenitors (MPPs) from wild type control and Pbx1-conditional knockout mice, whose HSCs display a profound self-renewal defect.

Single-cell transcriptome analysis of EpCAM+ cells from P3.25 mouse fetal livers

Project description:We employed marker-free single-cell RNA-Seq to characterize comprehensive transcriptional profiles of 52 EpCAM+ cells from postnatal day 3.25 mouse fetal livers. These cells show characters of cholangiocytes. Combined with our previous single cell data of E11.5~P2.5 mouse fetal livers, our data depict the dynamic trajectories with transcriptional profiles at single-cell resolution during mouse liver development, and provide insights into the fate decision and transcriptional control of self-renewal, differentiation and maturation of liver stem/progenitor cells.
