ABSTRACT: Gene expression data from long term hematopoietic stem cells (LT-HSC, Lin-Sca-1+c-kit+CD34-CD135-) isolated from control, MxCre Jak2VF/+ and MxCre Jak2VF/+ EZH2-/- mice
Project description:We applied a novel approach of parallel transcriptional analysis of multiple, highly fractionated stem and progenitor populations from patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and a normal karyotype. We isolated phenotypic long-term HSC (LT-HSC), short-term HSC (ST-HSC), and committed granulocyte-monocyte progenitors (GMP) from individual patients, and measured gene expression profiles of each population, and in comparison to their phenotypic counterparts from age-matched healthy controls. Bone marrow samples from AML patients with normal karyotype and age-matched healthy controls were used in this study. Hematopoietic stem and progenitor compartments were purified by multiparameter-high speed fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) from CD34+ enriched bone marrow to isolate LT-HSC (Lin-/CD34+/CD38-/CD90+), ST-HSC (Lin-/CD34+/CD38-/CD90-), and GMP (Lin-/CD34+/CD38+/CD123+/CD45R+).
Project description:We applied a novel approach of parallel transcriptional analysis of multiple, highly fractionated stem and progenitor populations in a genetically defined subset of AML (AML with monosomy 7). We isolated phenotypic long-term HSC (LT-HSC), short-term HSC (ST-HSC), and committed granulocyte-monocyte progenitors (GMP) from individual patients with AML, and measured gene expression profiles of each population, and in comparison to their phenotypic counterparts from age-matched healthy controls. Bone marrow samples from AML patients bearing monosomy 7 and age-matched healthy controls were used in this study. Hematopoietic stem and progenitor compartments were purified by multiparameter-high speed fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) from CD34+ enriched bone marrow to isolate LT-HSC (Lin-/CD34+/CD38-/CD90+), ST-HSC (Lin-/CD34+/CD38-/CD90-), and GMP (Lin-/CD34+/CD38+/CD123+/CD45R+).
Project description:We discovered that mice that lack Lsd1 in hematopoietic cells were exhibited increased frequencies of CD150+ CD48- lin- c-Kit+ Sca-1+ LT-HSCs, but completely lacked the lin- c-Kit+ Sca-1- myeloid progenitor compartment. To determine the genes altered by Lsd1-loss, CD150+ CD48- lin- c-Kit+ Sca-1+ LT-HSCs from Lsd1fl/fl and Lsd1fl/fl Mx1Cre mice were FACS-purified to be analyzed by gene expression profiling.
Project description:Gene expression profiling from fine purified hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells of WT or miR-29a deletion. This anlaysis identified the up- and down-regulated genes from miR-29a deletion, and suggest that cell cycle regulators are significantly changed. The results demonstrate that the HSC lacking of miR-29a appeared as committed progentiors from their gene expression patterns. Cells are sorted into hematopoietic stem cells (HSC, Lin-c-Kit+Sca-1+Slam1+CD34-) and committed progenitor cells (Prog, Lin-c-kit+Sca-1-) with > 90% purity using FACS AriaII machine.
Project description:Gene expression of LT-HSC (CD150+Flt3-lin-Sca-Kit+) hematopoietic stem cells from wild type mice was compared with LT-HSC from Cebpa knock-in mutant mice (K/L mutants). Fetal liver cells for each genotype were competitively transplanted into irradiant recipients. Donor-derived LT-HSC cells were isolated by FACS sorting of recipient bone marrow. Biological replicates of each (3 for wt, 2 for K/L) were generated and expression profiles were determined by hybridization to Affymetrix Moe430_2 arrays.
Project description:Self-renewal is a defining characteristic of stem cells, however the molecular pathways underlying its regulation are poorly understood. Here we demonstrate that conditional inactivation of the Pbx1 proto-oncogene in the hematopoietic compartment results in a progressive loss of long-term hematopoietic stem cells (LT-HSCs) that is associated with concomitant reduction in their quiescence, leading to a defect in the maintenance of self-renewal as assessed by serial transplantation. Transcriptional profiling revealed that multiple stem cell maintenance factors are perturbed in Pbx1-deficient LT-HSCs, which prematurely express a large subset of genes, including cell cycle regulators, normally expressed in non-self-renewing multipotent progenitors. Experiment Overall Design: LT-HSC (Lin-cKit+Sca1+CD34-CD135-) and ST-HSC (Lin-cKit+Sca1+CD34+CD135-) cells were prospectively sorted from the BM of MxCre-.Pbx1f/f control mice harvested 4 weeks after the last injection of poly(I:C).
Project description:Gene expression of HSC (Lin-Sca-Kit+Flt3-) hematopoietic stem cells from Dicer D/+ mice was compared with LT-HSC from DicerD/D mice. BM cells were noncompetitively transplanted into irradiant recipients, and deletion induced by poly(IC) injection. Donor-derived HSCs were isolated by FACS sorting of recipient bone marrow. Biological replicates of each (2 per genotype) were generated and expression profiles were determined by hybridization to Affymetrix Moe430_2 arrays.
Project description:Gene expression analysis on purified human long-term hematopoietic stem cells (LT-HSC; CD34+CD38-CD90+) and short-term HSC (ST-HSC; CD34+CD38-CD90-) derived from healthy control patients and patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)
Project description:The biology of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML)-stem cells is still incompletely understood. Therefore, we previously developed an inducible transgenic mouse model in which stem cell targeted induction of BCR-ABL expression leads to chronic phase CML-like disease. Here, we now demonstrate that the disease is transplantable using BCR-ABL positive LSK cells (lin-Sca-1+c-kit+). Interestingly, the phenotype is enhanced when unfractionated bone marrow (BM) cells are transplanted. However, neither progenitor cells (lin-Sca-1-c-kit+) nor mature granulocytes (CD11b+Gr-1+), or potential stem cell niche cells were able to transmit the disease or alter the phenotype. The phenotype was largely independent of BCR ABL priming prior to transplant. However, BCR-ABL abrogated the potential of LSK cells to induce full blown disease in secondary recipients. Subsequently, we found that BCR-ABL increased the fraction of multipotent progenitor cells (MPP) at the expense of long term HSC (LT-HSC) in the BM. Microarray analyses of LSK cells revealed that BCR-ABL alters the expression of genes involved in proliferation, survival, and hematopoietic development. Our results suggest that BCR-ABL induces differentiation of LT-HSC and decreases their self renewal capacity. Furthermore, reversion of BCR-ABL eradicates mature cells while leukemic stem cells persist, giving rise to relapsed CML upon re-induction of BCR-ABL.
