Project description:The transcriptome of Ctrl and Vitamin A-deficient longterm hematopoietic stem cells (LT-HSC) and multipotant progenitors (MPP3/4) was assessed by RNAseq.
Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in WASH knockout LT-HSCs, compared to the WASH WT strain. To find the reason that causes LT-HSC abnormal. Gene expression profiling using sorted LT-HSC samples from C57/BL6 strain. Total RNA extracted from WASH control (isolated RNA from WT, IRWT) and knockout mice (IRKO) were quantified by the NanoDrop ND-1000 and RNA integrity was assessed by standard denaturing agarose gel electrophoresis.Each chip measures the expression level of 44, 170 genes from Mus Musculus.
Project description:Long-term hematopoietic stem cells (LT-HSC) maintain lifelong hematopoiesis while preserving the stem cell compartment through self-renewal. The human LT-HSC compartment is molecularly and functionally heterogeneous and also varies across ontogeny. Dissecting the molecular basis for this variation is impeded by the absence of immunophenotypic markers to resolve LT-HSC heterogeneity. Here, we identified ATPase plasma membrane Ca2+transporting 1 (ATP2B1/PMCA1) as a novel cell surface marker that is heterogeneously expressed by CD49f+ LT-HSC across ontogeny. ATP2B1 immunophenotypic expression stratified human CD49f+ LT-HSC from fetal liver (FL), neonatal cord blood (CB) and adult mobilized peripheral blood (mPB) sources into functionally distinct subpopulations in single-cell (sc) clonogenic assays. CD49f+ATP2B1+ LT-HSC exhibited superior long-term repopulation and self-renewal capacities in vivo compared to CD49f+ATP2B1– LT-HSC. Molecular profiling by scMultiome and immunofluorescence microscopy point to enrichment of an HSC self-renewal program that includes the TFEB-endolysosomal axis in CD49f+ATP2B1+ LT-HSC. Our study provides a new tool to dissect the heterogeneous molecular programs in LT-HSC across ontogeny.
