Hematopoiesis: A Human Perspective

The classical model of hematopoiesis posits the segregation of lymphoid and myeloid lineages as the earliest fate decision. The validity of this model in the mouse has been questioned; however, little is known about the lineage potential of human progenitors. Here we provide a comprehensive analysis of the human hematopoietic hierarchy by clonally mapping the developmental potential of seven progenitor classes from neonatal cord blood and adult bone marrow. Human multilymphoid progenitors, identified as a distinct population of Thy-1(neg-lo)CD45RA(+) cells in the CD34(+)CD38(-) stem cell compartment, gave rise to all lymphoid cell types, as well as monocytes, macrophages and dendritic cells, which indicated that these myeloid lineages arise in early lymphoid lineage specification. Thus, as in the mouse, human hematopoiesis does not follow a rigid model of myeloid-lymphoid segregation.

The origins of the identification and isolation of hematopoietic stem cells, and their capability to induce donor-specific transplantation tolerance and treat autoimmune diseases.

After priming, naive CD8 + T lymphocytes establish specific heritable transcription programs that define progression to long-lasting memory cells or to short-lived effector cells. Although lineage specification is critical for protection, it remains unclear how chromatin dynamics contributes to the control of gene expression programs. We explored the role of gene silencing by the histone methyltransferase Suv39h1. In murine CD8 + T cells activated after Listeria monocytogenes infection, Suv39h1-dependent trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 9 controls the expression of a set of stem cell–related memory genes. Single-cell RNA sequencing revealed a defect in silencing of stem/memory genes selectively in Suv39h1 -defective T cell effectors. As a result, Suv39h1 -defective CD8 + T cells show sustained survival and increased long-term memory reprogramming capacity. Thus, Suv39h1 plays a critical role in marking chromatin to silence stem/memory genes during CD8 + T effector terminal differentiation.

Identification of an Early Unipotent Neutrophil Progenitor with Pro-tumoral Activity in Mouse and Human Bone Marrow.

Hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow (BM) give rise to all blood cells. According to the classic model of hematopoiesis, the differentiation paths leading to the myeloid and lymphoid lineages segregate early. A candidate 'common lymphoid progenitor' (CLP) has been isolated from CD34(+)CD38(-) human cord blood cells based on CD7 expression. Here, we confirm the B- and NK-differentiation potential of CD34(+)CD38(-)CD7(+) cells and show in addition that this population has strong capacity to differentiate into T cells. As CD34(+)CD38(-)CD7(+) cells are virtually devoid of myeloid differentiation potential, these cells represent true CLPs. To unravel the molecular mechanisms underlying lymphoid commitment, we performed genome-wide gene expression profiling on sorted CD34(+)CD38(-)CD7(+) and CD34(+)CD38(-)CD7(-) cells. Interestingly, lymphoid-affiliated genes were mainly upregulated in the CD7(+) population, while myeloid-specific genes were downregulated. This supports the hypothesis that lineage commitment is accompanied by the shutdown of inappropriate gene expression and the upregulation of lineage-specific genes. In addition, we identified several highly expressed genes that have not been described in hematopoiesis before.
