Project description:Natural killer (NK) cells exhibit anti-fibrotic properties in liver fibrosis (LF) by suppressing activated hepatic stellate cell (HSC) populations. Prostaglandin (PG) E2 plays a dual role in innate and adaptive immunity. E-prostanoid 3 receptor (EP3) was markedly downregulated in NK cells from liver fibrosis mice and patients with liver cirrhosis. NK cell-specific deletion of EP3 aggravated hepatic fibrogenesis in mouse models of LF. For an in-depth analysis of the molecular alterations mediated by EP3 in NK cells, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) was performed using CD27+CD11b+ NK cells. GO, KEGG, GSEA revealed that the adhesion signaling pathway was downregulated in EP3-deficient NK cells. This phenotype was confirmed by qRT-PCR and function experiments. Thus, EP3 is required for adhesion and cytotoxicity of NK cells toward HSCs and may serve as a therapeutic target for the management of LF.

Project description:Mitochondrial Potentiation Ameliorates Age Related Heterogeneity in Hematopoietic Stem Cell Function [HSCs treated]
| PRJNA659054 | ENA
Project description:introduction: Ageing is associated with reduced fitness and increased myeloid bias of the hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) compartment, causing increased risk of immune compromise, anemia and malignancy results: We show that mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) can be used to prospectively isolate chronologically old HSCs with transcriptional features and functional attributes characteristic of young HSCs, including a high rate of transcription and balanced lineage-affiliated programmes. Strikingly, MMP is a stronger determinant of the quantitative and qualitative transcriptional state of HSCs than chronological age and transcriptional consequences of manipulation of MMP in HSCs within their native niche suggest a causal relationship. Accordingly, we show that pharmacological enhancement of MMP in old HSCs in vivo increases engraftment potential upon transplantation and reverses myeloid-biased peripheral blood output at steady state. conclusion: Our results demonstrate that MMP is a source of heterogeneity in old HSCs and its pharmacological manipulation can alter transcriptional programs with beneficial consequences for function.

Project description:Hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) experience phenotypic transformation, from the quiescent phenotype to the activated one, after different etiologies of liver injury. Liver fibrosis is then occurred upon the activation of HSCs. miR-16 deficiency is identified to be an important characteristic of HSCs activation. We used Affymetrix rat 230 2.0 arrays (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, U.S.A.) to uncover the global alternations of transcriptome under miR-16 restoration. We isolated quiescent hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) from adult male SD rats (normal control group) by in situ perfusion and density-gradient centrifugation. Activated HSCs were separated from rats of fibrosis model group, which were treated by 40% carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) for 8 weeks, by means of liver section, digestion and sequential centrifugation. Quiescent and activated HSCs were then divided into 4 groups at random, namely quiescent HSCs, activated HSCs, pLV-miR-16-treated HSCs and pLV-GFP-treated HSCs. The pLV-miR-16-treated group, pLV-GFP-treated group were infected with pLV-miR-16 and pLV-GFP, respectively.

Project description:We have developed a new conditional transgenic mouse showing that MLL-ENL, at an endogenous-like expression level, induces leukemic transformation selectively in LT-HSCs. To investigate the molecular mechanism of leukemic transformation in LT-HSCs conditionally expressing MLL-ENL, we preliminarily performed comprehensive gene expression profiling of CreER-transduced LT-HSCs and ST-HSCs using cDNA microarray analysis. For initial screening of candidate genes invloved in the leukemic transformation, total RNA was extracted from colony-forming cells derived from LT-HSCs and ST-HSCs transduced with CreER or mock. Four samples were analyzed, and CreER-transduced LT/ST-HSC-derived cells were compared with mock-transduced LT/ST-HSC-derived cells, while CreER/mock-transduced LT-HSC-derived cells were compared with CreER/mock-transduced ST-HSC-derived cells.

Project description:Leptin receptor (LEPR) identifies a subpopulation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) with high repopulating potential. In this study, we demonstrated that LEPR-expressing HSCs while exhibiting significantly higher engrafting potential and self-renewing capacity in young mice showed early age-associated decline in these functions as compared to the LEPR- HSCs. LEPR+ HSCs have transcriptomic profiles significantly different from LEPR- HSCs in young mouse bone marrow, but middle-aged HSCs do not have distinct transcriptomic profiles based on LEPR status. The age-related phenotypes were associated with a proinflammatory transcriptomic profile at baseline in young LEPR+ HSCs, which was further exacerbated by age. In contrast, LEPR- HSCs did not show age-associated functional impairment at the ages tested. This suggested that subsets of HSCs are susceptible to age-related decline in function at varying ages and that LEPR+ HSCs are a potential target for early cellular therapeutic interventions in delaying the detrimental effects of aging in hematopoiesis.
