Human embryonic stem (ES) cells provide a unique model and an important resource to analyze early hematopoietic development. Other systems to study mammalian hematopoiesis include mouse ES cells, dissection of timed mouse embryos, or use of human postnatal hematopoietic tissue typically isolated from bone marrow or umbilical cord blood. All these models have particular strengths and weaknesses. The extensive studies on murine hematopoiesis provide a basis for work on the human developmental system. Since there are likely some important species differences, use of human ES cells now provides an optimal means to evaluate basic cellular and molecular mechanisms that regulate the beginning stages of human blood development, prior to derivation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Eventually, research on human ES cells may provide an alternative source of HSCs and other blood products for hematopoietic cell transplantation or other cellular therapies. 相似文献

Unique and independent roles for MLL in adult hematopoietic stem cells and progenitors 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The Mixed Lineage Leukemia (MLL) gene is essential for embryonic hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) development, but its role during adult hematopoiesis is unknown. Using an inducible knockout model, we demonstrate that Mll is essential for the maintenance of adult HSCs and progenitors, with fatal bone marrow failure occurring within 3 weeks of Mll deletion. Mll-deficient cells are selectively lost from mixed bone marrow chimeras, demonstrating their failure to self-renew even in an intact bone marrow environment. Surprisingly, HSCs lacking Mll exhibit ectopic cell-cycle entry, resulting in the depletion of quiescent HSCs. In contrast, Mll deletion in myelo-erythroid progenitors results in reduced proliferation and reduced response to cytokine-induced cell-cycle entry. Committed lymphoid and myeloid cells no longer require Mll, defining the early multipotent stages of hematopoiesis as Mll dependent. These studies demonstrate that Mll plays selective and independent roles within the hematopoietic system, maintaining quiescence in HSCs and promoting proliferation in progenitors. 相似文献

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the ultimate choice of treatment for patients with hematological diseases and cancer. The success of HSCT is critically dependent on the number and engraftment efficiency of the transplanted donor hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Various studies show that bone marrow‐derived mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) support hematopoiesis and also promote ex vivo expansion of HSCs. MSCs exert their therapeutic effect through paracrine activity, partially mediated through extracellular vesicles (EVs). Although the physiological function of EVs is not fully understood, inspiring findings indicate that MSC‐derived EVs can reiterate the hematopoiesis, supporting the ability of MSCs by transferring their cargo containing proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids to the HSCs. The activation state of the MSCs or the signaling mechanism that prevails in them also defines the composition of their EVs, thereby influencing the fate of HSCs. Modulating or preconditioning MSCs to achieve a specific composition of the EV cargo for the ex vivo expansion of HSCs is, therefore, a promising strategy that can overcome several challenges associated with the use of naïve/unprimed MSCs. This review aims to speculate upon the potential role of preconditioned/primed MSC‐derived EVs as “cell‐free biologics,” as a novel strategy for expanding HSCs in vitro. 相似文献

Thrombopoietin (TPO) is the cytokine that is chiefly responsible for megakaryocyte production but increasingly attention has turned to its role in maintaining hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). HSCs are required to initiate the production of all mature hematopoietic cells, but this differentiation needs to be balanced against self-renewal and quiescence to maintain the stem cell pool throughout life. TPO has been shown to support HSC quiescence during adult hematopoiesis, with the loss of TPO signaling associated with bone marrow failure and thrombocytopenia. Recent studies have shown that constitutive activation mutations in Mpl contribute to myeloproliferative disease. In this review, we will discuss TPO signaling pathways, regulation of TPO levels and the role of TPO in normal hematopoiesis and during myeloproliferative disease.Key words: thrombopoietin, TPO, Mpl, hematopoietic stem cell, hematopoiesis, Jak2, MPLW515K, MPLW515L 相似文献

Most tissues are patterned so that progenitors in different locations are programmed to have different properties. Stem cells from different regions of the nervous system acquire intrinsic differences in their properties as they migrate through distinct environments. Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) also migrate through diverse environments throughout life, raising the question of whether HSCs also acquire at least transient changes in their properties as they are exposed to diverse environments. Although we observed significant differences in hematopoiesis between the fetal liver and fetal spleen, we were not able to detect phenotypic, functional, or gene expression differences between the HSCs in these organs. Regional differences in definitive hematopoiesis are therefore not determined by regional differences between HSCs. We were also not able to detect phenotypic, functional, or gene expression differences between HSCs in different adult bone marrow compartments. Our failure to detect differences among stem cells from different regions of the hematopoietic system at the same time during development suggests that the hematopoietic system has evolved mechanisms to prevent the spatial reprogramming of HSC properties as they migrate between distinct environments. 相似文献

An EGFR/Ebi/Sno pathway promotes delta expression by inactivating Su(H)/SMRTER repression during inductive notch signaling 总被引:129,自引:0,他引:129
Stem cells within the bone marrow (BM) exist in a quiescent state or are instructed to differentiate and mobilize to circulation following specific signals. Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), induced in BM cells, releases soluble Kit-ligand (sKitL), permitting the transfer of endothelial and hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) from the quiescent to proliferative niche. BM ablation induces SDF-1, which upregulates MMP-9 expression, and causes shedding of sKitL and recruitment of c-Kit+ stem/progenitors. In MMP-9-/- mice, release of sKitL and HSC motility are impaired, resulting in failure of hematopoietic recovery and increased mortality, while exogenous sKitL restores hematopoiesis and survival after BM ablation. Release of sKitL by MMP-9 enables BM repopulating cells to translocate to a permissive vascular niche favoring differentiation and reconstitution of the stem/progenitor cell pool. 相似文献

Blood-forming hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) ensure production of all mature blood cells during homeostatic and regenerative hematopoiesis. Proliferation, cell cycle regulation, and quiescence are key processes involved in this function, and in a recent issue of Cancer Cell, show that HSC quiescence is actively regulated by specific molecular mechanisms that appear to distinguish normal HSC maintenance from HSC responses to hematologic injury. 相似文献

Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is a severe hemolytic anemia caused by an intrinsic abnormality of the red blood cells that makes them exceedingly susceptible to the lytic action of activated complement (C). This abnormality results from a mutation in the PIG-A gene on Xp22. Given that the mutation is not inherited but is somatically acquired by a hematopoietic stem cell, it creates two populations of blood cells: normal cells and PNH cells. The clinical expression of PNH depends on the relative and absolute expansion of the PNH cell population, which probably depends, in turn, on a paradoxical growth advantage conferred to it by the existence in the patients of an autoimmune process that exerts negative selection against the 'normal' hematopoietic stem cells. 相似文献

The major cause of mortality in measles is generalized suppression of cell-mediated immunity that persists following virus clearance and results in secondary infections. The mechanisms contributing to this long-term immunosuppression are not clear. Herein we present evidence that measles virus (MV) disrupts hematopoiesis by infecting human CD34+ cells and human bone marrow stroma. MV infection does not affect the hematopoietic capability of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) directly; rather, the infection impairs the ability of stroma to support development of HSCs. These results suggest that MV-mediated defects in hematopoiesis contribute to the long-term immunosuppression seen in measles. 相似文献

Biochemical background of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is an acquired disorder characterized by paroxysms of intravascular hemolysis. A considerable part of erythrocytes in patient blood is susceptible to autologous complement activation because of the deficiency of CD59, which is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored protein and inhibits the formation of the membrane attack complex (MAC) of complement. The deficiency of CD59 is derived from the inability of GPI-anchor synthesis. Although more than 10 proteins are involved in the GPI-anchor synthesis, the mutation of only one protein, PIG-A, causes the defect in about 200 patients with PNH who have been analyzed. The reason why only PIG-A causes the deficiency of GPI anchor is due to the location of its gene on X chromosome. The clonal stem cell mutated with PIG-A gene in the bone marrow loses the capability of the synthesis of GPI-anchor. The mutation of PIG-A gene alone, however, seems to be insufficient to account for the survival of the PIG-A-deficient cells in the bone marrow. Thus, a fraction of the mutant stem cells probably gain a survival advantage by some additional changes, either additional mutations or changes in immunological circumstances. The release of the surviving cells into blood stream results in a clinical syndrome with PNH. 相似文献

Recent studies have proposed that bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are maintained via N-cadherin-mediated homophilic adhesion with osteoblasts. However, there is not yet any evidence that N-cadherin-expressing cells have HSC activity or that osteoblasts are required for HSC maintenance. We were unable to detect N-cadherin expression in highly purified HSCs by polymerase chain reaction, by using commercial anti-N-cadherin antibodies, or by beta-galactosidase staining of N-cadherin gene trap mice. Only N-cadherin-negative bone marrow cells exhibited HSC activity in irradiated mice. Finally, biglycan-deficient mice had significant reductions in trabecular bone and osteoblasts but showed no defects in hematopoiesis, HSC frequency, or function. Thus, reductions in osteoblasts do not necessarily lead to reductions in HSCs. Most bone marrow HSCs in wild-type and biglycan-deficient mice localized to sinusoids, and few localized within five cell diameters of the endosteum. These results question whether significant numbers of HSCs depend on N-cadherin-mediated adhesion to osteoblasts. 相似文献

Exposure to a moderate or high total-body dose of radiation induces not only acute bone marrow suppression but also residual (or long-term) bone marrow injury. The induction of residual bone marrow injury is primarily attributed to the induction of hematopoietic cell senescence by ionizing radiation. However, the mechanisms underlying radiation-induced hematopoietic cell senescence are not known and thus were investigated in the present study. Using a well-established long-term bone marrow cell culture system, we found that radiation induced hematopoietic cell senescence at least in part via activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38). This suggestion is supported by the finding that exposure to radiation selectively activated p38 in bone marrow hematopoietic cells. The activation was associated with a significant reduction in hematopoietic cell clonogenic function, an increased expression of p16(INK4a) (p16), and an elevated senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) activity. All these changes were attenuated by p38 inhibition with a specific p38 inhibitor, SB203580 (SB). Selective activation of p38 was also observed in bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) after mice were exposed to a sublethal total-body dose (6.5 Gy) of radiation. Treatment of the irradiated mice with SB after total-body irradiation (TBI) increased the frequencies of HSCs and hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) in their bone marrow and the clonogenic functions of the irradiated HSCs and HPCs. These findings suggest that activation of p38 plays a role in mediating radiation-induced hematopoietic cell senescence and residual bone marrow suppression. 相似文献

Bone marrow is the main site for hematopoiesis in adults. It acts as a niche for hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and contains non‐hematopoietic cells that contribute to stem cell dormancy, quiescence, self‐renewal, and differentiation. HSC also exist in resting spleen of several species, although their contribution to hematopoiesis under steady‐state conditions is unknown. The spleen can however undergo extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH) triggered by physiological stress or disease. With the loss of bone marrow niches in aging and disease, the spleen as an alternative tissue site for hematopoiesis is an important consideration for future therapy, particularly during HSC transplantation. In terms of harnessing the spleen as a site for hematopoiesis, here the remarkable regenerative capacity of the spleen is considered with a view to forming additional or ectopic spleen tissue through cell engraftment. Studies in mice indicate the potential for such grafts to support the influx of hematopoietic cells leading to the development of normal spleen architecture. An important goal will be the formation of functional ectopic spleen tissue as an aid to hematopoietic recovery following clinical treatments that impact bone marrow. For example, expansion or replacement of niches could be considered where myeloablation ahead of HSC transplantation compromises treatment outcomes. 相似文献

Rb regulates interactions between hematopoietic stem cells and their bone marrow microenvironment 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Hematopoiesis is maintained by stem cells (HSCs) that undergo fate decisions by integrating intrinsic and extrinsic signals, with the latter derived from the bone marrow (BM) microenvironment. Cell-cycle regulation can modulate stem cell fate, but it is unknown whether this represents an intrinsic or extrinsic effector of fate decisions. We have investigated the role of the retinoblastoma protein (RB), a central regulator of the cell cycle, in hematopoiesis. Widespread inactivation of RB in the murine hematopoietic system resulted in profound myeloproliferation. HSCs were lost from the BM due to mobilization to extramedullary sites and differentiation. This phenotype was not intrinsic to HSCs, but, rather, was the consequence of an RB-dependent interaction between myeloid-derived cells and the microenvironment. These findings demonstrate that myeloproliferation may result from perturbed interactions between hematopoietic cells and the niche. Therefore, RB extrinsically regulates HSCs by maintaining the capacity of the BM to support normal hematopoiesis and HSCs. 相似文献

The regulated lysosomal degradation pathway of autophagy prevents cellular damage and thus protects from malignant transformation. Autophagy is also required for the maturation of various hematopoietic lineages, namely the erythroid and lymphoid ones, yet its role in adult hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) remained unexplored. While normal HSCs sustain life-long hematopoiesis, malignant transformation of HSCs or early progenitors leads to leukemia. Mechanisms protecting HSCs from cellular damage are therefore essential to prevent hematopoietic malignancies. By conditionally deleting the essential autophagy gene Atg7 in the hematopoietic system, we found that autophagy is required for the maintenance of true HSCs and therefore also of downstream hematopoietic progenitors. Loss of autophagy in HSCs leads to the expansion of a progenitor cell population in the bone marrow, giving rise to a severe, invasive myeloproliferation, which strongly resembles human acute myeloid leukemia (AML). 相似文献
