Interleukin-1-mediated hematopoietic cell regulation in the aorta-gonad-mesonephros region of the mouse embryo.
Hematopoiesis during development is a dynamic process,with many factors involved in the emergence and regulation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and progenitor cells. Whereas previous studies have focused on developmental signaling and transcription factors in embryonic hematopoiesis,the role of well-known adult hematopoietic cytokines in the embryonic hematopoietic system has been largely unexplored. The cytokine interleukin-1 (IL-1),best known for its proinflammatory properties,has radioprotective effects on adult bone marrow HSCs,induces HSC mobilization,and increases HSC proliferation and/or differentiation. Here we examine IL-1 and its possible role in regulating hematopoiesis in the midgestation mouse embryo. We show that IL-1,IL-1 receptors (IL-1Rs),and signaling mediators are expressed in the aorta-gonad-mesonephros (AGM) region during the time when HSCs emerge in this site. IL-1 signaling is functional in the AGM,and the IL-1RI is expressed ventrally in the aortic subregion by some hematopoietic,endothelial,and mesenchymal cells. In vivo analyses of IL-1RI-deficient embryos show an increased myeloid differentiation,concomitant with a slight decrease in AGM HSC activity. Our results suggest that IL-1 is an important homeostatic regulator at the earliest time of HSC development,acting to limit the differentiation of some HSCs along the myeloid lineage.

Vinculin is indispensable for repopulation by hematopoietic stem cells, independent of integrin function.
Vinculin is a highly conserved actin-binding protein that is localized in integrin-mediated focal adhesion complexes. Although critical roles have been proposed for integrins in hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) function,little is known about the involvement of intracellular focal adhesion proteins in HSC functions. This study showed that the ability of c-Kit(+)Sca1(+)Lin(-) HSCs to support reconstitution of hematopoiesis after competitive transplantation was severely impaired by lentiviral transduction with short hairpin RNA sequences for vinculin. The potential of these HSCs to differentiate into granulocytic and monocytic lineages,to migrate toward stromal cell-derived factor 1α,and to home to the bone marrow in vivo were not inhibited by the loss of vinculin. However,the capacities to form long term culture-initiating cells and cobblestone-like areas were abolished in vinculin-silenced c-Kit(+)Sca1(+)Lin(-) HSCs. In contrast,adhesion to the extracellular matrix was inhibited by silencing of talin-1,but not of vinculin. Whole body in vivo luminescence analyses to detect transduced HSCs confirmed the role of vinculin in long term HSC reconstitution. Our results suggest that vinculin is an indispensable factor determining HSC repopulation capacity,independent of integrin functions.

Quantitative assay for totipotent reconstituting hematopoietic stem cells by a competitive repopulation strategy.
Although hematopoiesis is known to originate in a population of very primitive cells with both lymphopoietic and myelopoietic potential,a procedure for enumerating such cells has to date not been available. We now describe a quantitative assay for long-term repopulating stem cells with the potential for reconstituting all hematopoietic lineages. This assay has two key features. The first is the use of competitive repopulation conditions that ensure not only the detection of a very primitive class of hematopoietic stem cells but also the survival of lethally irradiated mice transplanted with very low numbers of such cells. The second is the use of a limiting-dilution experimental design to allow stem cell quantitation. The assay involves transplanting limiting numbers of male test" cells into lethally irradiated syngeneic female recipients together with 1-2 x 10(5) syngeneic female marrow cells whose long-term repopulating ability has been compromised by two previous cycles of marrow transplantation. The proportion of assay recipients whose regenerated hematopoietic tissues are determined to contain greater than or equal to 5% cells of test cell origin (male) greater than or equal to 5 weeks later is then used to calculate the frequency of competitive repopulating units (CRU) in the original male test cell suspension (based on Poisson statistics). Investigation of this assay system has shown that all three potential sources of stem cells (test cells�

Requirements for survivin in terminal differentiation of erythroid cells and maintenance of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells.
Survivin,which is the smallest member of the inhibitor of apoptosis protein (IAP) family,is a chromosomal passenger protein that mediates the spindle assembly checkpoint and cytokinesis,and also functions as an inhibitor of apoptosis. Frequently overexpressed in human cancers and not expressed in most adult tissues,survivin has been proposed as an attractive target for anticancer therapies and,in some cases,has even been touted as a cancer-specific gene. Survivin is,however,expressed in proliferating adult cells,including human hematopoietic stem cells,T-lymphocytes,and erythroid cells throughout their maturation. Therefore,it is unclear how survivin-targeted anticancer therapies would impact steady-state blood development. To address this question,we used a conditional gene-targeting strategy and abolished survivin expression from the hematopoietic compartment of mice. We show that inducible deletion of survivin leads to ablation of the bone marrow,with widespread loss of hematopoietic progenitors and rapid mortality. Surprisingly,heterozygous deletion of survivin causes defects in erythropoiesis in a subset of the animals,with a dramatic reduction in enucleated erythrocytes and the presence of immature megaloblastic erythroblasts. Our studies demonstrate that survivin is essential for steady-state hematopoiesis and survival of the adult,and further,that a high level of survivin expression is critical for proper erythroid differentiation.

c-Kit function is necessary for in vitro myogenic differentiation of bone marrow hematopoietic cells.
In recent years,the differentiation of bone marrow cells (BMCs) into myocytes has been extensively investigated,but the findings remain inconclusive. The purpose of this study was to determine the conditions necessary to induce myogenic differentiation in short-term cultures of adult BMCs,and to identify the BMC subpopulation responsible for this phenomenon. We report that high-density cultures of murine hematopoietic BMCs gave rise to spontaneous beating cell clusters in the presence of vascular endothelial and fibroblast growth factors. These clusters originated from c-kit(pos) cells. The formation of the clusters could be completely blocked by adding a c-kit/tyrosine kinase inhibitor,Gleevec (imatinib mesylate; Novartis International,Basel,Switzerland,http://www.novartis.com),to the culture. Cluster formation was also blunted in BMCs from c-kit-deficient (Kit(W)/Kit(W-v)) mice. Clustered cells expressed cardiomyocyte-specific transcription factor genes Gata-4 and Nkx2.5,sarcomeric proteins beta-MHC and MLC-2v,and ANF and connexin-43. Immunostaining revealed alpha-sarcomeric actinin expression in more than 90% of clustered cells. Under electron microscopy,the clustered cells exhibited a sarcomeric myofiber arrangement and z-bands. This study defines the microenvironment required to achieve a reproducible in vitro model of beating,myogenic cell clusters. This model could be used to examine the mechanisms responsible for the postnatal myogenic differentiation of BMCs. Our results identify c-kit(pos) bone marrow hematopoietic cells as the source of the myogenic clusters.

Rac1 is essential for intraembryonic hematopoiesis and for the initial seeding of fetal liver with definitive hematopoietic progenitor cells.
Definitive hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSCs/Ps) originating from the yolk sac and/or para-aorta-splanchno-pleura/aorta-gonad-mesonephros are hypothesized to colonize the fetal liver,but mechanisms involved are poorly defined. The Rac subfamily of Rho GTPases has been shown to play essential roles in HSC/P localization to the bone marrow following transplantation. Here,we study the role of Rac1 in HSC/P migration during ontogeny and seeding of fetal liver. Using a triple-transgenic approach,we have deleted Rac1 in HSCs/Ps during very early embryonic development. Without Rac1,there was a decrease in circulating HSCs/Ps in the blood of embryonic day (E) 10.5 embryos,while yolk sac definitive hematopoiesis was quantitatively normal. Intraembryonic hematopoiesis was significantly impaired in Rac1-deficient embryos,culminating with absence of intra-aortic clusters and fetal liver hematopoiesis. At E10.5,Rac1-deficient HSCs/Ps displayed decreased transwell migration and impaired inter-action with the microenvironment in migration-dependent assays. These data suggest that Rac1 plays an important role in HSC/P migration during embryonic development and is essential for the emergence of intraembryonic hematopoiesis.

Targeted gene addition in human CD34(+) hematopoietic cells for correction of X-linked chronic granulomatous disease.
Gene therapy with genetically modified human CD34(+) hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) may be safer using targeted integration (TI) of transgenes into a genomic 'safe harbor' site rather than random viral integration. We demonstrate that temporally optimized delivery of zinc finger nuclease mRNA via electroporation and adeno-associated virus (AAV) 6 delivery of donor constructs in human HSPCs approaches clinically relevant levels of TI into the AAVS1 safe harbor locus. Up to 58{\%} Venus(+) HSPCs with 6-16{\%} human cell marking were observed following engraftment into mice. In HSPCs from patients with X-linked chronic granulomatous disease (X-CGD),caused by mutations in the gp91phox subunit of the NADPH oxidase,TI of a gp91phox transgene into AAVS1 resulted in ∼15{\%} gp91phox expression and increased NADPH oxidase activity in ex vivo-derived neutrophils. In mice transplanted with corrected HSPCs,4-11{\%} of human cells in the bone marrow expressed gp91phox. This method for TI into AAVS1 may be broadly applicable to correction of other monogenic diseases.
