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.

Project description:In the mouse embryo during midgestation, hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are generated from aortic endothelium through the transdifferentiation process known as endothelial-to-hematopoietic transition, or EHT. During EHT, flat-shaped hemogenic endothelium transform into round-shaped hematopoietic cells, which subsequently form cell aggregates, called hematopoietic clusters. To understand HSC specification during ontogeny and to search for nascent HSC markers, we performed single-cell microarray analysis of developing HSC populations.

Project description:Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are generated via a natural transdifferentiation process known as endothelial-to-hematopoietic cell transition (EHT). Due to small numbers of embryonal arterial cells undergoing EHT and the paucity of markers to enrich for hemogenic endothelial cells, the genetic program driving HSC emergence is largely unknown. Here, we use a highly sensitive RNAseq method to examine the whole transcriptome of small numbers of enriched aortic HSCs (CD31+cKit+Ly6aGFP+), hemogenic endothelial cells (CD31+cKit-Ly6aGFP+) and endothelial cells (CD31+cKit-Ly6aGFP-). Comparison of mRNA profiles of endothelial cells, hemogenic endothelial cells, and hematopoietic stem cells generated by deep-sequencing of sorted populations from pool of embryos, in triplicate.

Project description:The transcription factor RUNX1 is required in the embryo for formation of the adult hematopoietic system. Here we describe the seminal findings that led to the discovery of RUNX1 and of its critical role in blood cell formation in the embryo from hemogenic endothelium. We also present RNA-Seq data demonstrating that hemogenic endothelial cells in different anatomic sites, which produce hematopoietic progenitors with dissimilar differentiation potentials, are molecularly distinct. Hemogenic endothelial cells and non-hemogenic endothelial cells in the yolk sac are more closely related to each other than either are to hemogenic or non-hemogenic endothelial cells in the major arteries. Thus, a major driver of the different lineage potentials of the committed erythro-myeloid progenitors that emerge in the yolk sac, versus hematopoietic stem cells that originate in the major arteries, is likely to be the distinct molecular properties of the hemogenic endothelial cells from which they are derived. We use bioinformatics analyses to predict signaling pathways active in arterial hemogenic endothelium, several of which are functionally validated pathways including Notch, Wnt, and Hedgehog. We also use a novel bioinformatics approach to assemble transcriptional regulatory networks and predict transcription factors that may be specifically involved in hematopoietic cell formation from arterial hemogenic endothelium, which is the origin of the adult hematopoietic system.

Project description:It has now been well established that hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells originate from a specialised subset of endothelium termed hemogenic endothelium (HE) via an endothelial-to-hematopoietic transition. However, the molecular mechanisms determining which endothelial progenitors possess or not this hemogenic potential is currently unknown. In this study, we investigated the changes in hemogenic potential in endothelial progenitors at the early stages of embryonic development. We use a microarray approach to profile the genes regulated between E7.5 and E8.5 embryonic day in the ETV2+FLK1+CD41- compartment. Cells were sorted based on ETV2::GFP+/FLK1+/CD41- immunophenotype from ETV2::GFP embryos at E7.5 and E8.5 developmental stage in triplicates

Project description:Hemogenic endothelium, which gives rise to the earliest HSCs, is thought to be isolated to very early stages of development, peaking at E10.5 in mice. However, our data suggests there may be hemogenic endothelium capable of giving rise to de-novo HSPCs in the fetal lungs of mice at E17. We've adapted a platform to recapitulate the ex-vivo development of HSPCs from E17 lung endothelium. This sequencing experiment will help us to validate whether what we are seeing in culture is indeed endothelial to hematopoietic transition (EHT) and possibly identify the subset of endothelial cells that give rise to HSPCs.

Project description:Specification of the mesodermal lineages requires a complex set of morphogenetic events orchestrated by interconnected signaling pathways and gene regulatory networks. The transcription factor Sox7 has critical functions in differentiation of multiple mesodermal lineages, including cardiac, endothelial, and hematopoietic. Using a doxycycline-inducible mouse embryonic stem cell (mESC) line, we have previously shown that expression of Sox7 in cardiovascular progenitor cells promotes expansion of endothelial progenitor cells. Here, we show that the ability of Sox7 to promote endothelial cell fate occurs at the expense of the cardiac lineage. Using ChIP-Seq coupled with ATAC-Seq we identify downstream target genes of Sox7 in cardiovascular progenitor cells and, by integrating these data with transcriptomic analyses, we define Sox7-dependent gene programs specific to cardiac and endothelial progenitor cells. Further, we demonstrate a protein-protein interaction between SOX7 and GATA4 and provide evidence that Sox7 interferes with the transcriptional activity of Gata4 on cardiac genes. In addition, we show Sox7 modulates WNT and BMP signaling during cardiovascular differentiation. Our data represent the first genome-wide analysis of Sox7 function and reveal a critical role for Sox7 in regulating signaling pathways that affect cardiovascular progenitor cell differentiation.
