Identification of a human hematopoietic stem cell subset that retains memory of inflammatory stress [Xenograft]

Project description:Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) survive a lifetime of infection to sustain life-long blood production. Inflammation activates many blood cell types, driving aging and malignancy. To understand HSC adaptation to inflammation, we performed single cell multi-omics on human HSC in xenograft inflammation-recovery models. Two transcriptionally and epigenetically distinct HSC subsets expressing canonical HSC programs were identified. Only one showed sustained transcriptional and epigenetic changes after recovery from inflammatory treatments. This HSC inflammatory memory (HSC-iM) program is enriched in memory T cells and HSC from recovered COVID-19 patients. Importantly, HSC-iM accumulates with age and in clonal hematopoiesis. Overall, heritable molecular alterations in a subset of human HSCs, an adaptation to long-term inflammatory stress, may predispose to heightened age related risk of blood cancer and infection.

Identification of a human hematopoietic stem cell subset that retains memory of inflammatory stress [TARGET-seq}

Project description:Inflammation activates blood cells, driving aging and malignancy. Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) survive a lifetime of infection, sustaining life-long hematopoiesis. Yet, how human HSCs respond and adapt to inflammatory stress is largely unknown. We developed xenograft inflammation-recovery models and performed single-cell multiomics on human HSCs to empirically understand HSC adaptation to inflammatory stress. Two transcriptionally and epigenetically distinct HSC subsets were identified with one, termed HSC inflammatory memory (HSC-iM), retaining molecular memory of prior inflammatory treatments. The HSC-iM molecular program was enriched in HSC from adult and pediatric samples across conditions ranging from COVID-19 recovery, aging, sickle cell disease, and clonal hematopoiesis (CH), establishing both the validity of our xenograft models and the physiological relevance of HSC-iM. The HSC-iM subset exhibited quiescence, hallmark inflammatory signatures, restrained hematopoietic output, and the transmission of the pro-inflammatory HSC-iM transcriptional program to downstream myelo-lymphoid progeny. These heritable molecular alterations represent an adaptation to inflammatory stress and some were found to be relieved by CH mutation acquisition. Finally, HSC-iM programs in circulating blood cells were associated with a risk score for all-cause mortality in population cohort analyses, underscoring the importance of this newly identified HSC subset in characterizing heterogeneous health outcomes across a lifetime.
