Nod1-dependent NF-kB activation initiates hematopoietic stem cell specification in response to small Rho GTPases

ABSTRACT: The possibility of specifying functional hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) would overcome current limitations related to HSPC transplantation. However, generating hPSC-derived HSPCs has been elusive, necessitating a better understanding of the native developmental mechanisms that trigger HSPC specification. Here, we revealed in vivo an intrinsic inflammatory mechanism triggered by Nod1 that drives early hemogenic endothelium (HE) patterning to specify HSPCs. Our genetic and chemical experiments showed that HSPCs failed to specify in the absence of Nod1 and its downstream kinase Ripk2. Rescue experiments demonstrated that Nod1 and Ripk2 acted through NF-kB, and that small Rho GTPases are at the apex of this mechanism. Manipulation of NOD1 in a human system of hPSCs differentiation towards the definitive hematopoietic lineage indicated functional conservation. This work establishes the RAC1-NOD1-RIPK2-NFkB axis as the earliest inflammatory inductor that intrinsically primes the HE for proper HSPC specification. Manipulation of this pathway could help derive a competent HE amenable to specify functional patient specific HSPCs for the treatment of blood disorders. Keywords: NOD1, RIPK2, NF-kB, RAC1, Rho GTPases, Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cell Specification, Hemogenic Endothelium.

Cooperative Transcription Factor Induction Mediates Hemogenic Reprogramming

Project description:During development, hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) arise from specialized endothelial cells by a process termed endothelial-to-hematopoietic transition (EHT). The genetic program driving human HSPC emergence remains largely unknown. We previously reported that the generation of hemogenic precursor cells from mouse fibroblasts recapitulates developmental hematopoiesis. Here, we demonstrate that human fibroblasts can be reprogrammed into hemogenic cells by the same transcription factors. Induced cells display dynamic EHT transcriptional programs, generate hematopoietic progeny, possess HSPC cell surface phenotype and repopulate immunodeficient mice for three months. Mechanistically, GATA2 and GFI1B interact and co-occupy a cohort of targets. This cooperative binding is reflected by engagement of open enhancers and promoters, initiating silencing of fibroblast genes and activating the hemogenic program. However, GATA2 displays dominant and independent targeting activity during the early phases of reprogramming. These findings shed light on the processes controlling human HSC specification and support generation of reprogrammed HSCs for clinical applications.

Meis1 establishes the pre-hemogenic endothelial state prior to Runx1 expression II

Project description:Hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) originate from an endothelial-to-hematopoietic transition (EHT) during embryogenesis. Characterization of early hemogenic endothelial (HE) cells is required to understand what drives hemogenic specification and to accurately define cells capable of undergoing EHT. Using Cellular Indexing of Transcriptomes and Epitopes by Sequencing (CITE-seq), we defined the early subpopulation of pre-HE cells based on both surface markers and transcriptomes. We identified the transcription factor Meis1 as an essential regulator of hemogenic cell specification in the embryo prior to Runx1 expression. Meis1 is expressed at the earliest stages of EHT and distinguishes pre-HE cells primed towards the hemogenic trajectory from the arterial endothelial cells that continue towards a vascular fate. Endothelial-specific deletion of Meis1 impaired the formation of functional Runx1-expressing HE which significantly impeded the emergence of pre-HSPC via EHT. Our findings implicate Meis1 in a critical fate-determining step for establishing EHT potential in endothelial cells.

Differential Ezh1/2 regulation of hemogenic fate and hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell formation from arterial endothelium

Project description:Across species, hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) arise during embryogenesis from a specialized arterial population, termed hemogenic endothelium. Here, we describe a mechanistic role for the epigenetic regulator, Enhancer of zeste homolog-1 (Ezh1) in vertebrate HSPC production via regulation of hemogenic commitment. Loss of ezh1 in zebrafish embryos favored acquisition of hemogenic (gata2b) and HSPC (runx1) fate at the expense of the arterial program (ephrinb2a, dll4). In contrast, ezh1 overexpression blocked hematopoietic progression via maintenance of arterial gene expression. The related polycomb group subunit, Ezh2, functioned in a non-redundant, sequential manner, whereby inhibition had no impact on arterial identity, but was capable of blocking ezh1-knockdown associated HSPC expansion. Single-cell RNA-seq across ezh1 genotypes revealed a dropout of ezh1+/- cells among arterial endothelium associated with positive regulation of gene transcription. Exploitation of Ezh1/2 modulation has potential functional relevance for improving in vitro HSPC differentiation from induced pluripotent stem cell sources.

N-Glycome regulation limits the transdifferentiation of endothelial cells into hematopoietic stem cells

Project description:Hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) are required to establish and maintain the adult blood system in vertebrates. During development, HPSCs are generated from hemogenic endothelial cells that undergo an endothelial-to-hematopoietic transition (EHT). Growth factors and epigenetic changes can promote EHT, but these mechanisms do not explain its tight spatiotemporal regulation during development. Here, we show that microRNA (miR) miR-223-mediated regulation of N-glycan biosynthesis intrinsically restrains EHT, representing a new pathway that prevents excessive HSPC production. We find that miR-223 is uniquely expressed in hemogenic endothelial cells undergoing EHT and in nascent HSPCs. Loss of miR-223 promotes the expansion of these cells in the zebrafish and mouse aorta-gonad-mesonephros (AGM), where EHT occurs. miR-223 targets alg2 (alpha 1,3/ 1,6 mannosyltransferase) in the AGM endothelium to restrict hemogenic and HSPC specification. This enzyme is involved in the attachment of the N-glycans, a common co-translational modification9-12 that influences several pathophysiological processes, but has not yet been implicated in EHT. Using an N-glycosensor, we demonstrate that abundant protein N-glycan attachment occurs in vascular cells during EHT, and this process is required for HSPC production. High-throughput glycome analysis upon loss of miR-223 revealed that terminal alpha 1,3/6 mannose modifications are increased at the expense of alpha 2,3/6 sialic acid sugars. Importantly, pharmacological manipulation targeting these N-glycan types in wild-type embryos phenocopies the loss of miR-223 and enhances EHT as well as HSPC production. Thus, the N-glycome plays a previously unappreciated role as an intrinsic regulator of EHT, with specific mannose and sialic acid modifications serving as key endothelial determinants to restrict the hematopoietic fate.

Identification of osteolineage cell-derived extracellular vesicle cargo implicated in hematopoietic support

Project description:Osteolineage cell-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) play a regulatory role in hematopoiesis and have been shown to promote the ex vivo expansion of human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). Here, we demonstrate that EVs from different human osteolineage sources do not have the same HSPC expansion promoting potential. Comparison of stimulatory and non-stimulatory osteolineage EVs by next-generation sequencing and mass spectrometry analyses revealed distinct microRNA and protein signatures identifying EV-derived candidate regulators of ex vivo HSPC expansion. Accordingly, the treatment of umbilical cord blood-derived CD34+ HSPCs with stimulatory EVs altered HSPC transcriptome, including genes with known roles in cell proliferation. An integrative bioinformatics approach, which connects the HSPC gene expression data with the candidate cargo in stimulatory EVs, delineated the potentially targeted biological functions and pathways during hematopoietic cell expansion and development. In conclusion, our study gives novel insights into the complex biological role of EVs in osteolineage cell-HSPC crosstalk and promotes the utility of EVs and their cargo as therapeutic agents in regenerative medicine.

AIBP-mediated Cholesterol Efflux Instructs Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cell Fate

Project description:Hypercholesterolemia, the driving force of atherosclerosis, accelerates the expansion and mobilization of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). The molecular determinants connecting hypercholesterolemia with hematopoiesis are underexplored. Here we report that a novel somite-derived pro-hematopoietic cue, AIBP, orchestrates HSPC emergence from the hemogenic endothelium, a type of specialized endothelium manifesting hematopoietic potential. Mechanistically, AIBP-mediated cholesterol efflux activates endothelial Srebp2, the master transcription factor for cholesterol biosynthesis, which transactivates Notch and promotes HSPC emergence. Srebp2 inhibition impairs hypercholesterolemia-induced HSPC expansion. Srebp2 activation and Notch upregulation are associated with HSPC expansion in hypercholesterolemic human subjects. Genome-wide ChIP-seq, RNA-seq, and ATAC-seq indicate that Srebp2 trans-regulates Notch pathway genes required for hematopoiesis. Our studies outline a novel AIBP-regulated Srebp2-dependent paradigm for HSPC emergence in development and HPSC expansion in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

PDGFRβ+ cells play a dual role as hematopoietic precursors and niche cells during mouse ontogeny

Project description:Hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) generation in the aorta-gonads-mesonephros region requires HSC specification signals from the surrounding microenvironment. In zebrafish, PDGF-B/PDGFRβ signaling controls hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell (HSPC) generation and is required in the HSC specification niche. Little is known about murine HSPC specification in vivo and whether PDGF-B/PDGFRβ is involved. Here we show that PDGFRβ is expressed in distinct perivascular stromal cell layers surrounding the mid-gestation dorsal aorta, and its deletion impairs hematopoiesis. We demonstrate that PDGFRβ+ cells play a dual role in murine hematopoiesis. They act in the aortic niche to support HSPCs, and in addition, PDGFRβ+ embryonic precursors give rise to a subset of HSPCs that persist into adulthood. These findings provide crucial information for the controlled production of these clinically important cells in vitro.
