Gene expression at single cell level in human umbilical cord blood cells enriched for hematopoietic stem cells and cultured in conditions that maintain HSCs ex vivo.

ABSTRACT: The capacity for self-renewal of human hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) is lost upon typical culture conditions, which often include high levels of multiple hematopoietic cytokines, serum, and/or support cells. We found that culture of HSCs in CR medium (basal culture medium with inhibitors of GSK-3 (CHIR99021) and mTORC1 (Rapamycin) and no serum or cytokines) maintains self-renewal in human HSCs for at least 7 days without loss of repopulating activity (Huang et al PMID 23142822). Here we performed single cell RNA-seq to determine transcriptomic changes associated with HSC maintenance in CR. We compared a population of freshly isolated human hematopoietic cells enriched for HSCs (CD34+CD38-CD45RA-CD90+) to cells cultured for 2 days in basal medium (vehicle control), CR, and CR and low dose cytokines (CRCY). The data show that, compared to Day 0 uncultured cells, the HSC pool is maintained when CR is included (CR or CRCY medium) but not in the vehicle control. The most highly enriched transcript in the HSC population was the chaperone/UPR sensor GRP78/HSPA5. This population was also highly enriched for immediate early response genes and components of the AP-1 complex (FOS and JUN family transcription factors) which mediate the immediate early response to stress.

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.

Probing secretome of hematopoietic and mesenchymal stem cell interactions in single and co-cultures

Project description:Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) primarily reside in the bone marrow, where they receive external cues from their local microenvironment. The complex milieu of biophysical cues, cellular components, and cell-secreted factors regulates the process by which HSC produce the blood and immune system. We previously showed direct co-culture of primary murine hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells with a population of marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal and progenitor cells (MSPCs) in a methacrylamide-functionalized gelatin (GelMA) hydrogel improves hematopoietic progenitor maintenance. However, the mechanism by which MSPCs influenced HSC fate decisions remained unknown. Herein, we report the use of proteomic analysis to correlate HSC phenotype to a broad candidate pool of 200 soluble factors produced by combined mesenchymal and hematopoietic progeny. Partial Least Squares Regression (PLSR), along with an iterative filter method, identified TGFβ-1, MMP-3, c-RP, and TROY as positively correlated with HSC maintenance. Experimentally, we then observe exogenous stimulation of HSC monocultures in GelMA hydrogels with these combined cytokines increases the ratio of hematopoietic progenitors to committed progeny after a 7-day culture 7.52 ± 3.65 fold compared to non-stimulated monocultures. Findings suggest a cocktail of the downselected cytokines amplify hematopoietic maintenance potential of HSCs beyond that of MSPC-secreted factors alone. This work integrates empirical and computation methods to identify cytokine combinations to improve HSC maintenance within an engineered HSC niche, suggesting a route towards identifying feeder-free culture platforms for HSC expansion.

MYCT1 CONTROLS ENVIRONMENTAL SENSING IN HUMAN HEMATOPOIETIC STEM CELLS

Project description:Hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) rely on a unique regulatory machinery that facilitates life-long blood production and enables reconstitution of the entire hematopoietic system upon transplantation. However, the biological processes governing human HSC self-renewal and engraftment ability are poorly understood and challenging to recapitulate ex vivo to facilitate robust human HSC expansion. We discovered a novel HSC regulatory protein, MYCT1 (MYCT target 1), that is selectively expressed in endothelial cells (EC) and undifferentiated human HSPCs but becomes drastically downregulated during HSC culture. Lentiviral knockdown of MYCT1 in human foetal liver and cord blood HSPCs revealed a critical role for MYCT1 in governing human HSPC expansion and engraftment ability. Single cell RNAseq of human CB HSPCs after MYCT1 knockdown and overexpression revealed that MYCT1 governs HSC functional competence and modulates cellular properties essential for HSC stemness, such as low mitochondrial metabolic activity. Indeed, restoring the compromised MYCT1 expression in cultured human CB HSPCs improved ex vivo expansion of the most undifferentiated human HSPCs and enhanced their engraftment ability. We found that MYCT1 is localized in the endosomal membrane and interacts with vesicle trafficking regulators and signalling machinery essential for HSC and EC function. Loss of MYCT1 led to excessive endocytosis and hyperactive signalling responses to cytokines, whereas restoring MYCT1 expression in cultured CB HSPCs balanced the abnormal endocytosis associated with prolonged culture and fine-tuned signalling responses. Our work identifies MYCT1-moderated endocytosis and environmental sensing as an essential regulatory mechanism required to preserve human HSC stemness, and pinpoints silencing of MYCT1 as a critical contributor to the dysfunction of cultured human HSCs that needs to be addressed to improve human HSC culture strategies.

Expression data of human fetal liver hematopoietic stem and progenitors cells [Set 2]

Project description:Advances in pluripotent stem cell and reprogramming technologies have given hope of generating hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) in culture. To succeed, greater understanding of the self-renewing HSC during human development is required. We discovered that glycophosphatidylinositol-anchored surface protein GPI-80 (Vanin 2) defines a distinct subpopulation of human fetal hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPC) with self-renewal ability. CD34+CD90+CD38-GPI-80+ HSPC were the sole population that maintained proliferative potential and undifferentiated state in bone marrow stroma co-culture, and engrafted in immunodeficient mice. GPI-80 expression also enabled tracking of HSC migration between human fetal hematopoietic niches. The most highly enriched surface protein in GPI-80+ HSPC as compared to their progeny was Integrin alpha-M (ITGAM), which in leukocytes cooperates with GPI-80 to support migration. Knockdown of either GPI-80 or ITGAM was sufficient to perturb undifferentiated HSPC in stroma co-culture. These findings indicate that human fetal HSC utilize common mechanisms with leukocytes for cell-cell interactions governing HSC self-renewal. We used microarrays to identify genes enriched in the GPI-80+ hematopoietic stem and progenitor population in fetal liver. RNA was extracted from enriched fetal liver hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells, and downstream progenitors, for comparison based on Affymetrix arrays.

Mitochondrial respiratory chain is essential for hematopoietic stem cell function

Project description:Adult and fetal hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) display a glycolytic phenotype, which is required for maintenance of stemness; however, whether mitochondrial respiration is required to maintain HSC function is not known. Here we report that loss of the mitochondrial complex III subunit Rieske iron sulfur protein (RISP) in fetal mouse HSCs allows them to proliferate but impairs their differentiation, resulting in anemia and prenatal death. RISP null fetal HSCs displayed impaired respiration resulting in a decreased NAD+/NADH ratio. RISP null fetal HSCs and progenitors exhibited an increase in both DNA and histone methylation concomitant with increases in 2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG), a metabolite known to inhibit DNA and histone demethylases. RISP inactivation in adult HSCs also impaired respiration resulting in loss of quiescence resulting in severe pancytopenia and lethality. Thus, respiration is dispensable for adult or fetal HSC proliferation, but essential for fetal HSC differentiation and maintenance of adult HSC quiescence.

RNA-seq in human hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) cultures on 3 different materials

Thus, we could show that our 3D bone marrow-like PDMS scaffolds activate key molecular signaling pathways to amplify the numbers of undifferentiated HSCs efficiently ex vivo.

CD27 marks embryonic hematopoietic stem cells

Project description:Cell surface markers of adult hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are well established, but fewer markers are available for embryonic HSCs and their immediate precursors (pre-HSCs) in the major arteries. We performed RNA-Seq on a population of cells from the major arteries of embryonic day 11.5 mouse embryos enriched for lymphoid progenitors, pre-HSCs, and HSCs. We determined that Tnfrsf7, encoding CD27, a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, is upregulated in this population. CD27 is found on ~5% of hematopoietic cluster cells in the major arteries, and enriches for progenitors with lymphoid potential, embryonic HSCs, and Type II pre-HSCs (CD144+CD45+), and fetal liver HSCs. It does not, however, enrich for yolk sac derived erythro-myeloid progenitors. Collectively, those data show that CD27 is a new cell surface marker of embryonic HSCs and Type II pre-HSCs.

Gene expression analyses of hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) subsets in wildtype or CD41-KO mice

Project description:The hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) compartment is heterogeneous, yet our understanding of the identities of different HSC subtypes is limited. Here we show that platelet integrin CD41 (M-NM-1IIb), currently thought to only transiently mark fetal HSCs, is expressed on an adult HSC subtype that accumulates with age. CD41+ HSCs were largely quiescent and exhibited myeloerythroid and megakaryocyte gene priming, governed by Gata1, whereas CD41- HSCs were more proliferative and exhibited lymphoid gene priming. When isolated without the use of blocking antibodies, CD41+ HSCs possessed long-term repopulation capacity upon serial transplantations and showed a marked myeloid-bias compared to CD41-HSCs, which yielded a more lymphoid-biased progeny. CD41-knockout mice displayed multilineage hematopoietic defects coupled with decreased quiescence and survival of HSCs, suggesting that CD41 is functionally relevant for HSC maintenance and hematopoietic homeostasis. Transplantation experiments indicated that CD41-KO associated defects are long-term transplantable and HSC-derived, and in part mediated through the loss of platelet mass leading to decreases in HSC exposure to important platelet released cytokines, such as TGFM-NM-21. In summary, our data provide a novel marker to identify a myeloid-biased HSC subtype that becomes prevalent with age, and highlights the dogma of HSC regulation by their progeny. For microarray analysis, 1000 HSCs were FACS sorted from pools of 4-5 mice directly into lysis buffer, RNA extracted and whole transcript amplification was performed as previously described (Gonzalez-Roca E, Garcia-Albeniz X, Rodriguez-Mulero S, Gomis RR, Kornacker K, Auer H. Accurate expression profiling of very small cell populations. PLoS One. 2010;5:e14418.)

Iterative single cell analyses define the transcriptome of the first functional hematopoietic stem cells

Project description:Whereas hundreds of endothelial cells in the aorta-gonad-mesonephros (AGM) region transdifferentiate to hematopoietic cells, only 1-2 of these cells take on hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) identity at a single time point. Gata2 is one of a few transcription factors essential for HSC generation and function. In contrast to cell surface marker-based HSC enrichment approaches, enrichment based on Gata2 expression is directly linked to the internal regulatory network critical for HSC identity. Here we use index sorting of highly enriched Gata2-expressing intra-aortic hematopoietic cluster (IAHC) cells, iterative single cell transcriptomics and functional analyses to examine the relationship between HSC identity and expression of pivotal factors. Functional HSCs are enriched in Gata2 medium-expressing IAHC cells, which can be further subdivided based on Gata2, cKit and CD27 expression, where each subpopulation is not only associated with a specific molecular profile, but also distinct functionality in both in vitro and in vivo stem/progenitor assays. Immunohistochemical analysis localizes the first putative functional HSCs in vivo to small clusters in the AGM region, thus integrating molecular, functional and spatial information about the first cells in a mammalian embryo that acquire full HSC identity.
