Isolation and Transcriptome Analyses of Human Erythroid Progenitors: BFU-E and CFU-E

ABSTRACT: Burst-forming unit-erythroid (BFU-E) and colony-forming unit-erythroid (CFU-E) cells are erythroid progenitors traditionally defined by colony assays. We developed a flow cytometry-based strategy for isolating human BFU-E and CFU-E cells based on the changes in expression of cell surface markers during in vitro erythroid cell culture. BFU-E and CFU-E are characterized by CD45+GPA-IL-3R-CD34+CD36-CD71low and CD45+GPA-IL-3R-CD34-CD36+CD71high phenotypes, respectively. Colony assays validated phenotypic assignment giving rise to BFU-E and CFU-E colonies, both at a purity ~90%. The BFU-E colony forming ability of CD45+GPA-IL-3R-CD34+CD36-CD71low cells required SCF and erythropoietin, while the CFU-E colony forming ability of CD45+GPA-IL-3R-CD34-CD36+CD71high cells required only erythropoietin. Bioinformatic analysis of the RNA-seq data revealed unique transcriptomes in each differentiation stage. The sorting strategy was validated in uncultured primary cells isolated from bone marrow and peripheral blood, indicating that marker expression is not an artifact of in vitro cell culture, but represents an in vivo characteristic of erythroid progenitor populations. The ability to isolate highly pure human BFU-E and CFU-E progenitors will enable detailed cellular and molecular characterization of these distinct progenitor populations and define their contribution to disordered erythropoiesis in inherited and acquired hematological disease. Our data provide important resource for future studies.

Developmental differences between neonatal and adult human erythropoiesis

Project description:Studies of human erythropoiesis have relied, for the most part, on the in vitro differentiation of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC) from different sources. Here, we report that despite the common core erythroid program that exists between cord blood- and peripheral blood-HSPC induced towards erythroid differentiation in vitro, significant functional differences exist. We undertook a comparative analysis of human erythropoiesis using these two different sources of HSPC and differentiated them in vitro. We observed that cells derived from cord blood proliferate 4.5 times more than cells derived from peripheral blood. However, these cells present a delay in their differentiation pattern due to increased quantities of progenitors, notably CFU-E. Using our method of immunophenotyping for the study of erythroid progenitors, we document the presence and maintenance of a specific population in peripheral blood-derived erythroid progenitors. This population, defined as IL3R-GPA-CD34+CD36+, has the ability to form both BFU-E and CFU-E colonies in colony-forming assays, reflecting a higher potential. To further understand the differences between cord blood- and peripheral blood- HSPC, we sorted all stages of erythropoiesis from both sources and compared their transcriptome. We document differences at the CD34, BFU-E, poly- and orthochromatic stages. Among the genes presenting the highest differences in expression, many are involved in the regulation of the cell cycle and autophagy. Altogether, our studies provide a qualitative and quantitative comparative analysis of human erythropoiesis and highlight functional differences, critical to our understanding of the impact of the developmental origin of HSPCs on erythroid differentiation.

Dexamethasone and lenalidomide have distinct functional effects on erythropoiesis

Project description:We explored the effects of dexamethasone and lenalidomide, individually and in combination, on the differentiation of primary human bone marrow progenitor cells in vitro. Both agents promote erythropoiesis, increasing the absolute number of erythroid cells produced from normal CD34+ cells and from CD34+ cells with the types of ribosome dysfunction found in DBA and del(5q) MDS. However, the drugs had distinct effects on the production of erythroid progenitor colonies; dexamethasone selectively increased the number burst-forming units-erythroid (BFU-E), while lenalidomide specifically increased colony-forming units-erythroid (CFU-E). Use of the drugs in combination demonstrates that their effects are not redundant. Human CD34+ cells were cultured for 48 hours in the erythroid differentiation media described above with the addition of 40 ng/mL of FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (flt-3; Miltenyi Biotech) and 15 ng/mL of Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF; Amgen). Cells were cultured in the presence of the drugs of interest for 24 hours. RNA was purified using Trizol (Invitrogen). RNA was amplified and labeled by in vitro transcription and hybridized to the Affymetrix HT Human Genome U133A Array. Three replicates per condition.

Deletion of Stk40 impairs definitive erythropoiesis in the mouse fetal liver

Project description:The serine threonine kinase Stk40 has been shown to involve in mouse embryonic stem cell differentiation, pulmonary maturation and adipocyte differentiation. Here we report that targeted deletion of Stk40 leads to fetal liver hypoplasia and anemia in the mouse embryos. The reduction of erythrocytes in the fetal liver is accompanied by increased apoptosis and compromised erythroid maturation. Stk40-/- fetal liver cells have significantly reduced colony forming units (CFUs) capable of erythroid differentiation, including burst forming unit-erythroid (BFU-E), colony forming unit-erythroid (CFU-E), and CFU-granulocyte, erythrocyte, megakaryocyte and macrophage (CFU-GEMM), but not CFU-granulocyte/macrophages (CFU-GM). Purified Stk40-/- megakaryocyte-erythrocyte progenitors (MEPs) produced substantially fewer CFU-E colonies compared to control cells. Moreover, Stk40-/- fetal liver erythroblasts failed to form normal erythroblastic islands in association with wild type or Stk40-/- macrophages, indicating an intrinsic defect of Stk40-/- erythroblasts. Furthermore, the hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell pool is reduced in Stk40-/- fetal livers but still retains the multi-lineage reconstitution capacity. Finally, analysis of microarray data of E14.5 fetal liver cells suggests a potential role of aberrantly activated TNF-α signaling in Stk40 depletion induced dyserythropoiesis with a concomitant increase in cleaved Caspase-3 and decrease in Gata1 proteins. Altogether, the identification of Stk40 as a regulator for fetal erythroid differentiation, maturation and survival provides new clues to the molecular regulation of erythropoiesis and related diseases.

TGF-β inhibitors stimulate red blood cell production by enhancing self-renewal of BFU-E erythroid progenitors

Project description:Erythroid progenitor BFU-Es are so-named based on their ability to generate in methylcellulose culture large colonies of erythroid cells that consist of “bursts” of smaller erythroid colonies derived from the later CFU-E Epo- dependent progenitors. “Early” BFU-E cells forming large BFU-E colonies presumably have higher capacities for self-renewal than do those forming small BFU-E colonies. In order to understand the mechanism underlying this heterogeneity, we conducted single cell transcriptome analysis on BFU-E cells purified from mouse embryos. Our analyses showed that there are two principal subgroups of mouse BFU-E cells and that the type III TGFβ receptor (TβRIII) is a potential marker that distinguishes “early” and “late” BFU-Es. Expression of TβRIII is correlated with that of GATA1, a gene encoding an erythroid transcription factor induced during the BFU-E to CFU-E transition. The mouse and human BFU-E sub populations (TßRIII10%lo) expressing the 10% lowest amount of surface TβRIII are indeed enriched for early BFU-Es, and are significantly more responsive to glucocorticoid stimulation, which promotes BFU-E self-renewal, as compared to the total BFU-E population. The TßRIII10%lo BFU-E subpopulation presumably represents earlier BFU-Es with maximal capacity for self-renewal. Consistent with this notion, signaling by the TGFβ receptor kinases RI and RII increases during the transition from early (TßRIII10%lo) to late (TßRIII10%hi) BFU-Es and then decreases in CFU-E cells. Blocking TGF-β signaling by receptor kinase inhibitors increase TßRIII10%lo BFU-E cell self-renewal and increases total erythroblast production, suggesting the use of this type of drug in treating Epo unresponsive anemias.

p57Kip2 alterations in adult CFU-E contribute to steroid resistance in Diamond Blackfan anemia

Project description:Ashley R, Yan H, Wang N, Hale J, Dulmovits BM, Papoin J, Olive ME, Udeshi ND, Carr SA, Vlachosa A, Lipton JM, Da Costa L, Hillyer C, Kinet S, Taylor N, Mohandas N, Narla A, Blanc L. 2019. Despite the effective clinical use of steroids for the treatment of Diamond Blackfan anemia (DBA), the mechanistic bases via which glucocorticoids regulate human erythropoiesis remain poorly understood. Here, we report that the sensitivity of erythroid differentiation to dexamethasone (Dex) is dependent on the developmental origin of human CD34+ progenitor cells, specifically increasing the expansion of CD34+ progenitors from peripheral blood (PB) but not cord blood (CB). Dexamethasone treatment of erythroid-differentiated PB, but not CB, CD34+ progenitors resulted in the expansion of a novel CD34+CD36+CD71hiCD105med immature colony-forming unit-erythroid (CFU-E) population. Furthermore, proteomics analyses revealed the induction of distinct proteins in dexamethasone-treated PB and CB erythroid progenitors. Dexamethasone treatment of PB progenitors resulted in the specific upregulation of p57Kip2, a Cip/Kip cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, and we identified this induction as critical; shRNA-mediated downregulation of p57Kip2, but not the related p27Kip1, significantly attenuated the impact of dexamethasone on erythroid differentiation and inhibited the expansion of the immature CFU-E subset. Notably, in the context of DBA, we found that steroid resistance was associated with a dysregulated p57Kip2 expression. Altogether, these data identify a novel glucocorticoid-responsive human erythroid progenitor and provide new insights into glucocorticoid-based therapeutic strategies for the treatment of patients with DBA.

Expression data from mouse induced Erythroid Progenitor (iEP)-derived colonies, mouse bone marrow and fetal liver BFU-Es and mouse fibroblasts.

Project description:Forced expression of Gata1, Tal1, Lmo2 and c-Myc reprograms murine adult fibroblasts into erythroid progenitor cells. The resulting cells, called induced erythroid progenitors/precursors (iEPs), resemble bona fide erythroid cells in terms of morphology, colony forming capacity, and gene expression. We used microarrays to characterize the reprogrammed cells (iEP_red and iEP_non-red) at the molecular level and compare their global gene expression profile with bona fide erythroid cells (FL and BM BFU-Es) and starting fibroblasts (Fibs).
