Multipotential hematopoietic blast colony-forming cells exhibit delays in self-generation and lineage commitment.

چکیده
Murine hematopoietic blast colony-forming cells (BL-CFCs) are able to generate up to 30,000 progeny blast cells within 10 d in agar cultures. Contained in these populations are large numbers of lineage-committed progenitor cells in the granulocytic and macrophage lineages. Sequential analyses of blast colonies revealed that self-generation of BL-CFCs occurs but is surprisingly late in clonal expansion, as is the emergence of progenitor cells committed to megakaryocytic and eosinophil lineages. Self-generating BL-CFCs were highly enriched in lineage(-) Kit(+) Sca1(+) CD34(-) Flt3R(-) populations, and colonies generated by such cells contained colony-forming units-spleen and formed erythroid and lymphoid progeny in vivo. The data suggest the existence of a hierarchical structure in BL-CFC populations with at least a subset being cells assayable as colony-forming units-spleen. Because BL-CFCs can self-generate and are able to generate lymphoid and myeloid populations, BL-CFCs appear to be ideal cells in which to analyze the processes of self-generation and lineage commitment in clonal in vitro cultures.

Two distinct types of murine blast colony-forming cells are multipotential hematopoietic precursors.
Two types of blast colonies can be stimulated to develop in semisolid agar cultures of murine bone marrow cells. Typically, these are either multicentric colonies stimulated by stem cell factor (SCF) plus interleukin-6 (IL-6) or dispersed colonies stimulated by Flt3 ligand (FL) plus IL-6. Both types of blast colony-forming cells (BL-CFCs) can generate large numbers of lineage-committed granuloc...
متن کاملHuman granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) stimulates the in vitro and in vivo development but not commitment of primitive multipotential progenitors from transgenic mice expressing the human G-CSF receptor.
Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) stimulates the proliferation and restricted differentiation of hematopoietic progenitors into neutrophils. To clarify the effects of G-CSF on hematopoietic progenitors, we generated transgenic (Tg) mice that had ubiquitous expression of the human G-CSF receptor (hG-CSFR). In clonal cultures of bone marrow and spleen cells obtained from these mice, h...
متن کاملLhx2 Expression Promotes Self-Renewal of a Distinct Multipotential Hematopoietic Progenitor Cell in Embryonic Stem Cell-Derived Embryoid Bodies
The molecular mechanisms regulating the expansion of the hematopoietic system including hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in the fetal liver during embryonic development are largely unknown. The LIM-homeobox gene Lhx2 is a candidate regulator of fetal hematopoiesis since it is expressed in the fetal liver and Lhx2(-/-) mice die in utero due to severe anemia. Moreover, expression of Lhx2 in embryo...
متن کاملConcordant mast cell and basophil production by individual hematopoietic blast colony-forming cells.
Previous studies have shown that mouse bone marrow cells can produce mast cells when stimulated in vitro by stem cell factor (SCF) and interleukin-3 (IL-3). Experiments to define the marrow cells able to generate mast cells showed that the most active subpopulations were the Kit(+) Sca1(-) progenitor cell fraction and the more ancestral Kit(+) Sca1(+) blast colony-forming cell fraction. In clon...

Background: Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are capable of self-renewal and large-scale expansion. They also have the capacity to differentiate into a variety of cell types including liver, cardiac and neuron cells. However, it is not yet clear whether hESCs can differentiate to hemangioblasts under in-vitro conditions. Hemangioblasts are bipotential progenitors that can generate hematopoiet...
