  • Bone marrow transplantation without myeloablative conditioning in a mouse model for Diamond-Blackfan anemia corrects the disease phenotype
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Experimental Hematology. - : Elsevier BV. - 0301-472X. ; 99, s. 2-53
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Diamond-Blackfan anemia (DBA) is a congenital erythroid hypoplasia caused by a functional haploinsufficiency of genes coding for ribosomal proteins. Among these genes, the ribosomal protein S19 (RPS19) gene is the most frequently mutated. Previously, a mouse model deficient in RPS19 was developed by our laboratory, which recapitulates the hematopoietic disease phenotype by manifesting pathologic features and clinical symptoms of DBA. Characterization of this model revealed that chronic RPS19 deficiency leads to exhaustion of hematopoietic stem cells and subsequent bone marrow (BM) failure. In this study, we evaluated a nonmyeloablative conditioning protocol for BM transplants in RPS19-deficient mice by transplanting wild-type BM cells to RPS19-deficient recipients given no conditioning or sublethal doses of irradiation before transplant. We describe full correction of the hematopoietic phenotype in mice given sublethal doses of irradiation, as well as in animals completely devoid of any preceding irradiation. In comparison, wild-type animals receiving the same preconditioning regimen and number of transplanted cells exhibited significantly lower engraftment levels. Thus, robust engraftment and repopulation of transplanted cells can be achieved in reduced-intensity conditioned RPS19-deficient recipients. As gene therapy studies with autologous gene-corrected hematopoietic stem cells are emerging, we propose the results described here can guide determination of the level of conditioning for such a protocol in RPS19-deficient DBA. On the basis of our findings, a relatively mild conditioning strategy would plausibly be sufficient to achieve sufficient levels of engraftment and clinical success.

  • Correction of pathology in mice displaying Gaucher disease type 1 by a clinically-applicable lentiviral vector
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Molecular Therapy - Methods and Clinical Development. - : Elsevier BV. - 2329-0501. ; 20, s. 312-323
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • This study evaluates a clinically applicable lentiviral vector for treatment of Gaucher disease type 1. Hematopoietic stem cells transduced with the vector and transplanted into a mouse model successfully halted or reversed pathology. These data were used as proof-of-concept for regulatory filing enabling the commencement of an international phase 1/2 clinical trial.

  • Organ sparing total marrow irradiation compared to total body irradiation prior to allogeneic stem cell transplantation
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: European Journal of Haematology. - : Wiley. - 0902-4441 .- 1600-0609. ; 107:4, s. 393-407

    • Objectives: Total body irradiation (TBI) is commonly used prior to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in myeloablative conditioning regimens. However, TBI may be replaced by total marrow irradiation (TMI) at centres with access to Helical TomoTherapy, a modality that has the advantage of delivering intensity-modulated radiotherapy to long targets such as the entire bone marrow compartment. Toxicity after organ sparing TMI prior to HSCT has not previously been reported compared to TBI or with regard to engraftment data. Methods: We conducted a prospective observational study on 37 patients that received organ sparing TMI prior to HSCT and compared this cohort to retrospective data on 33 patients that received TBI prior to HSCT. Results: The 1-year graft-versus-host disease-free, relapse-free survival (GRFS) was 67.5% for all patients treated with TMI and 80.5% for patients with matched unrelated donor and treated with TMI, which was a significant difference from historical data on TBI patients with a hazard ratio of 0.45 (P =.03) and 0.24 (P <.01). Engraftment with a platelet count over 20 [K/µL] and 50 [K/µL] was significantly shorter for the TMI group, and neutrophil recovery was satisfactory in both treatment cohorts. There was generally a low occurrence of other treatment-related toxicities. Conclusions: Despite small cohorts, some significant differences were found; TMI as part of the myeloablative conditioning yields a high 1-year GRFS, fast and robust engraftment, and low occurrence of acute toxicity.

  • BMPR1a Is Required for the Optimal TGFβ1-Dependent CD207+ Langerhans Cell Differentiation and Limits Skin Inflammation through CD11c+ Cells
  • 2022
  • Ingår i: Journal of Investigative Dermatology. - : Elsevier BV. - 0022-202X. ; 142:9, s. 3-2454
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The cytokine TGFβ1 induces epidermal Langerhans cell (LC) differentiation from human precursors, an effect mediated through BMPR1a/ALK3 signaling, as revealed from ectopic expression and receptor inhibition studies. Whether TGFβ1‒BMPR1a signaling is required for LC differentiation in vivo remained incompletely understood. We found that TGFβ1-deficient mice show defective perinatal expansion and differentiation of LCs. LCs can be identified within the normal healthy human epidermis by anti-BMPR1a immunohistology staining. Deletion of BMPR1a in all (vav+) hematopoietic cells revealed that BMPR1a is required for the efficient TGFβ1-dependent generation of CD207+ LC-like cells from CD11c+ intermediates in vitro. Similarly, BMPR1a was required for the optimal induction of CD207 by preformed major histocompatibility complex II‒positive epidermal resident LC precursors in the steady state. BMPR1a expression is strongly upregulated in epidermal cells in psoriatic lesions, and BMPR1aΔCD11c mice showed a defect in the resolution phase of allergic and psoriatic skin inflammation. Moreover, whereas LCs from these mice expressed CD207, BMPR1a counteracted LC activation and migration from skin explant cultures. Therefore, TGFβ1‒BMPR1a signaling seems to be required for the efficient induction of CD207 during LC differentiation in the steady state, and bone marrow‒derived lesional CD11c+ cells may limit established skin inflammation through enhanced BMPR1a signaling.

  • Successful gene therapy of Diamond-Blackfan anemia in a mouse model and human CD34+ cord blood hematopoietic stem cells using a clinically applicable lentiviral vector
  • 2022
  • Ingår i: Haematologica. - : Ferrata Storti Foundation (Haematologica). - 1592-8721 .- 0390-6078. ; 107:2, s. 446-456

    • Diamond-Blackfan anemia (DBA) is an inherited bone marrow failure disorder in which pure red blood cell aplasia is associated with physical malformations and a predisposition to cancer. Twentyfive percent of patients with DBA have mutations in a gene encoding ribosomal protein S19 (RPS19). Our previous proof-of-concept studies demonstrated that DBA phenotype could be successfully treated using lentiviral vectors in Rps19-deficient DBA mice. In our present study, we developed a clinically applicable single gene, self-inactivating lentiviral vector, containing the human RPS19 cDNA driven by the human elongation factor 1a short promoter, which can be used for clinical gene therapy development for RPS19-deficient DBA. We examined the efficacy and safety of the vector in a Rps19-deficient DBA mouse model and in human primary RPS19-deficient CD34+ cord blood cells. We observed that transduced Rps19-deficient bone marrow cells could reconstitute mice long-term and rescue the bone marrow failure and severe anemia observed in Rps19-deficient mice, with a low risk of mutagenesis and a highly polyclonal insertion site pattern. More importantly, the vector can also rescue impaired erythroid differentiation in human primary RPS19-deficient CD34+ cord blood hematopoietic stem cells. Collectively, our results demonstrate the efficacy and safety of using a clinically applicable lentiviral vector for the successful treatment of Rps19-deficient DBA in a mouse model and in human primary CD34+ cord blood cells. These findings show that this vector can be used to develop clinical gene therapy for RPS19-deficient DBA patients.

  • The stem cell regulator PEDF is dispensable for maintenance and function of hematopoietic stem cells
  • 2017
  • Ingår i: Scientific Reports. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 2045-2322. ; 7
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Pigment epithelium derived factor (PEDF), a ubiquitously expressed 50 kDa secreted glycoprotein, was recently discovered to regulate self-renewal of neural stem cells and have a supportive effect on human embryonic stem cell growth. Here, we analyzed expression of PEDF in the murine hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) compartments and found that PEDF is highly expressed in primary long-term HSCs. Therefore, we characterized the hematopoietic system in a knockout mouse model for PEDF and using this model we surprisingly found that PEDF is dispensable for HSC regulation. PEDF knockout mice exhibit normal hematopoiesis in steady state conditions and the absence of PEDF lead to normal regeneration capacity in a serial competitive transplantation setting. Additionally, PEDF-deficient cells exhibit unaltered lineage distribution upon serial transplantations. When human cord blood stem and progenitor cells were cultured in media supplemented with recombinant PEDF they did not show changes in growth potential. Taken together, we report that PEDF is not a critical regulatory factor for HSC function during regeneration in vivo or growth of human stem/progenitor cells in vitro.

  • Concurrent stem- and lineage-affiliated chromatin programs precede hematopoietic lineage restriction
  • 2022
  • Ingår i: Cell Reports. - : Elsevier BV. - 2211-1247. ; 39:6
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The emerging notion of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) as a low-primed cloud without sharply demarcated gene expression programs raises the question on how cellular-fate options emerge and at which stem-like stage lineage priming is initiated. Here, we investigate single-cell chromatin accessibility of Lineage-, cKit+, and Sca1+ (LSK) HSPCs spanning the early differentiation landscape. Application of a signal-processing algorithm to detect transition points corresponding to massive alterations in accessibility of 571 transcription factor motifs reveals a population of LSK FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (Flt3)intCD9high cells that concurrently display stem-like and lineage-affiliated chromatin signatures, pointing to a simultaneous gain of both lympho-myeloid and megakaryocyte-erythroid programs. Molecularly and functionally, these cells position between stem cells and committed progenitors and display multi-lineage capacity in vitro and in vivo but lack self-renewal activity. This integrative molecular analysis resolves the heterogeneity of cells along hematopoietic differentiation and permits investigation of chromatin-mediated transition between multipotency and lineage restriction.

  • S100A6 is a critical regulator of hematopoietic stem cells.
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: Leukemia. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 0887-6924 .- 1476-5551.
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The fate options of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) include self-renewal, differentiation, migration, and apoptosis. HSCs self-renewal divisions in stem cells are required for rapid regeneration during tissue damage and stress, but how precisely intracellular calcium signals are regulated to maintain fate options in normal hematopoiesis is unclear. S100A6 knockout (KO) HSCs have reduced total cell numbers in the HSC compartment, decreased myeloid output, and increased apoptotic HSC numbers in steady state. S100A6KO HSCs had impaired self-renewal and regenerative capacity, not responding to 5-Fluorouracil. Our transcriptomic and proteomic profiling suggested that S100A6 is a critical HSC regulator. Intriguingly, S100A6KO HSCs showed decreased levels of phosphorylated Akt (p-Akt) and Hsp90, with an impairment of mitochondrial respiratory capacity and a reduction of mitochondrial calcium levels. We showed that S100A6 regulates intracellular and mitochondria calcium buffering of HSC upon cytokine stimulation and have demonstrated that Akt activator SC79 reverts the levels of intracellular and mitochondrial calcium in HSC. Hematopoietic colony-forming activity and the Hsp90 activity of S100A6KO are restored through activation of the Akt pathway. We show that p-Akt is the prime downstream mechanism of S100A6 in the regulation of HSC self-renewal by specifically governing mitochondrial metabolic function and Hsp90 protein quality.

  • BMP signaling is required for postnatal murine hematopoietic stem cell self-renewal
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Haematologica. - : Ferrata Storti Foundation (Haematologica). - 0390-6078 .- 1592-8721. ; 106:8, s. 2203-2214

    • Life-long production of blood from hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) is a process of strict modulation. Intrinsic and extrinsic signals govern fate options like self-renewal – a cardinal feature of HSC. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMP) have an established role in embryonic hematopoiesis, but less is known about its functions in adulthood. Previously, SMAD-mediated BMP signaling has been proven dispensable for HSC. However, the BMP type-II receptor (BMPR-II) is highly expressed in HSC, leaving the possibility that BMP function via alternative pathways. Here, we establish that BMP signaling is required for self-renewal of adult HSC. Through conditional knockout we show that BMPR-II deficient HSC have impaired self-renewal and regenerative capacity. BMPR-II deficient cells have reduced p38 activation, implying that non-SMAD pathways operate downstream of BMP in HSC. Indeed, a majority of primitive hematopoietic cells do not engage in SMAD-mediated responses downstream of BMP in vivo. Furthermore, deficiency of BMPR-II results in increased expression of TJP1, a known regulator of self-renewal in other stem cells, and knockdown of TJP1 in primitive hematopoietic cells partly rescues the BMPR-II null phenotype. This suggests TJP1 may be a universal stem cell regulator. In conclusion, BMP signaling, in part mediated through TJP1, is required endogenously by adult HSC to maintain self-renewal capacity and proper resilience of the hematopoietic system during regeneration.
