Regulatory Role of S100A6 in Hematopoetic Stem Cells

ABSTRACT: The fate options of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) include self-renewal, differentiation, migration and apoptosis, but the interaction between intracellular Ca2+ and cytoplasmic chaperon protein in regulating fate options of long term-HSCs (LT-HSC) is unknown. We created a S100A6 conditional knockout mouse model in the hematopoietic system and our studies showed that in S100A6KO, the number of LT-HSCs was significantly reduced and HSCs engrafted poorly. After 5FU challenge, the frequency of S100A6KO HSCs remained significantly low. Our data showed that S100A6 failed to self-renew through Akt pathway in an intracellular calcium (Cai2+)-dependent manner. Expression profiling of S100A6KO obtained from gene signatures revealed that cytosolic calcium level and proteins translocation to mitochondria were decreased. Mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation was impaired in S100A6KO. Proteomic data indicated Hsp90 protein and chaperonin family were reduced. Our findings demonstrated that S100A6 regulates fate options of HSCs self-renewal through integrating Akt signaling, specifically governing mitochondria metabolic function and protein quality.
