Abstract
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is one of the lipids identified to be involved in stem cell differentiation. It exerts various functions through activation of G protein-coupled lysophosphatidic acid receptors (LPARs). In previous studies, we have demonstrated that activation of LPA receptor 3 (LPA3) promotes erythropoiesis of human hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and zebrafish using molecular and pharmacological approaches. Our results show that treatment with lysophosphatidic acid receptor 2 (LPA2) agonist suppressed erythropoiesis, whereas activation of LPA3 by 1-oleoyl-2-methyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphothionate (2S-OMPT) promoted it, both in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, we have demonstrated the inhibitory role of LPA3 during megakaryopoiesis. However, the mechanism underlying these observations remains elusive. In the present study, we suggest that the expression pattern of LPARs may be correlated with the transcriptional factors GATA-1 and GATA-2 at different stages of myeloid progenitors. We determined that manipulation of GATA factors affected the expression levels of LPA2 and LPA3 in K562 leukemia cells. Using luciferase assays, we demonstrate that the promoter regions of LPAR2 and LPAR3 genes were regulated by these GATA factors in HEK293T cells. Mutation of GATA-binding sites in these regions abrogated luciferase activity, suggesting that LPA2 and LPA3 are regulated by GATA factors. Moreover, physical interaction between GATA factors and the promoter region of LPAR genes was verified in K562 cells using chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) studies. Taken together, our results suggest that balance between LPA2 and LPA3 expression, which may be determined by GATA factors, is a regulatory switch for lineage commitment in myeloid progenitors. The expression-level balance of LPA receptor subtypes represents a novel mechanism regulating erythropoiesis and megakaryopoiesis.

Abstract
Circular RNAs (circRNA) are closely associated with the pathogenesis of various hematological diseases. However, little is known about the potential functions of circRNAs in essential thrombocythemia (ET) development. The circRNA profile alterations in the bone marrow of ET patients were mainly investigated in this study. The sizes of exosomes derived from human bone marrow tissues were validated by the nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA) method. CD63 and TSG101 expressions in exosomes were analyzed by western blot analysis. The profiles and differential expression of circRNAs in bone-derived exosomes were characterized by high-throughput sequencing. Herein, circular structures and expression of circRNAs were verified by Sanger sequencing and real-time polymerase chain reaction, respectively. The circRNA-miRNA-mRNA networks were predicted using the Cytoscape software. And we detected the effect of circ_0014614 on the transformation of K562 cells into megakaryocytes. Exosomes derived from the bone marrow of ET patients and healthy volunteers showed a diameter between 70 and 140 nm and expressed high CD63 and TSG101. Meanwhile, the circRNA profiles were significantly altered in bone marrow-derived exosomes from ET patients, among which circDAP3, circASXL1, and circRUNX1 were significantly downregulated in ET patients, thus conferring a new insight into the role of circRNAs in the pathogenesis of ET. Besides this, circRNA-encoding genes and miRNA-mRNA networks targeted by this three circRNA were involved in various biological processes and signaling pathways. And circ_0014614 could inhibit K562 cells' differentiation into megakaryocytes. The predictions of the potential function of these three differentially expressed circRNAs along with their interaction with specific miRNAs could provide a basis for circRNA-based ET diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Hematopoiesis, the complex developmental process that forms blood components and replenishes the blood system, involves multiple intracellular and extracellular mechanisms. We previously demonstrated that lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a lipid growth factor, has opposing regulatory effects on erythrocyte differentiation through activation of LPA receptors 2 and 3; yet the mechanisms underlying this process remain unclear. In this study, LPA2 is observed that highly expressed in common myeloid progenitors (CMP) in murine myeloid cells, whereas the expression of LPA3 displaces in megakaryocyte-erythroid progenitors (MEP) of later stage of myeloid differentiation. Therefore, we hypothesized that the switching expression of LPA2 and LPA3 determine the hematic homeostasis of mammalian megakaryocytic-erythroid lineage. In vitro colony-forming unit assays of murine progenitors reveal that LPA2 agonist GRI reduces the erythroblast differentiation potential of CMP. In contrast, LPA3 agonist OMPT increases the production of erythrocytes from megakaryocyte-erythrocyte progenitor cells (MEP). In addition, treatment with GRI reduces the erythroid, CMP, and MEP populations in mice, indicating that LPA2 predominantly inhibits myeloid differentiation at an early stage. In contrast, activation of LPA3 increases the production of terminally differentiated erythroid cells through activation of erythropoietic transcriptional factor. We also demonstrate that the LPA3 signaling is essential for restoration of phenylhydrazine (PHZ)-induced acute hemolytic anemia in mice and correlates to erythropoiesis impairment of Hutchinson-Gilford progeria Symptom (HGPS) premature aging expressed K562 model. Our results reveal the distinct roles of LPA2 and LPA3 at different stages of hematopoiesis in vivo, providing potentiated therapeutic strategies of anemia treatment.

Abstract
Vertebrate hematopoiesis is a complex physiological process that is tightly regulated by intracellular signaling and extracellular microenvironment. In recent decades, breakthroughs in lineage-tracing technologies and lipidomics have revealed the existence of numerous lipid molecules in hematopoietic microenvironment. Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a bioactive phospholipid molecule, is one of the identified lipids that participates in hematopoiesis. LPA exhibits various physiological functions through activation of G-protein-coupled receptors. The functions of these LPARs have been widely studied in stem cells, while the roles of LPARs in hematopoietic stem cells have rarely been examined. Nonetheless, mounting evidence supports the importance of the LPA-LPAR axis in hematopoiesis. In this article, we have reviewed regulation of hematopoiesis in general and focused on the microenvironmental and intracellular effects of the LPA in hematopoiesis. Discoveries in these areas may be beneficial to our understanding of blood-related disorders, especially in the context of prevention and therapy for anemia.

Lysophosphatidic acid receptor LPA 3 prevents oxidative stress and cellular senescence in Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome. Aging Cell 2020; 19:e13064.

Abstract
Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a rare laminopathy that produces a mutant form of prelamin A, known as Progerin, resulting in premature aging. HGPS cells show morphological abnormalities of the nuclear membrane, reduced cell proliferation rates, accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and expression of senescence markers. Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a growth factor‐like lipid mediator that regulates various physiological functions via activating multiple LPA G protein‐coupled receptors. Here, we study the roles of LPA and LPA receptors in premature aging. We report that the protein level of LPA3 was highly downregulated through internalization and the lysosomal degradation pathway in Progerin‐transfected HEK293 cells. By treating Progerin HEK293 cells with an LPA3 agonist (OMPT, 1‐Oleoyl‐2‐O‐methyl‐rac‐glycerophosphothionate) and performing shRNA knockdown of the Lpa3r transcript in these cells, we showed that LPA3 activation increased expression levels of antioxidant enzymes, consequently inhibiting ROS accumulation and ameliorating cell senescence. LPA3 was shown to be downregulated in HGPS patient fibroblasts through the lysosomal pathway, and it was shown to be crucial for ameliorating ROS accumulation and cell senescence in fibroblasts. Moreover, in a zebrafish model, LPA3 deficiency was sufficient to cause premature aging phenotypes in multiple organs, as well as a shorter lifespan. Taken together, these findings identify the decline of LPA3 as a key contributor to the premature aging phenotypes of HGPS cells and zebrafish.

Pharmacological activation of lysophosphatidic acid receptors regulates erythropoiesis. Sci Rep 2016; 6:27050.

Abstract
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a growth factor-like phospholipid, regulates numerous physiological functions, including cell proliferation and differentiation. In a previous study, we have demonstrated that LPA activates erythropoiesis by activating the LPA 3 receptor subtype (LPA3) under erythropoietin (EPO) induction. In the present study, we applied a pharmacological approach to further elucidate the functions of LPA receptors during red blood cell (RBC) differentiation. In K562 human erythroleukemia cells, knockdown of LPA2 enhanced erythropoiesis, whereas knockdown of LPA3 inhibited RBC differentiation. In CD34+ human hematopoietic stem cells (hHSC) and K526 cells, the LPA3 agonist 1-oleoyl-2-methyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphothionate (2S-OMPT) promoted erythropoiesis, whereas the LPA2 agonist dodecyl monophosphate (DMP) and the nonlipid specific agonist GRI977143 (GRI) suppressed this process. In zebrafish embryos, hemoglobin expression was significantly increased by 2S-OMPT treatment but was inhibited by GRI. Furthermore, GRI treatment decreased, whereas 2S-OMPT treatment increased RBC counts and amount of hemoglobin level in adult BALB/c mice. These results indicate that LPA2 and LPA3 play opposing roles during RBC differentiation. The pharmacological activation of LPA receptor subtypes represent a novel strategies for augmenting or inhibiting erythropoiesis.
