Abstract
Peripheral nerves exist in a stable state in adulthood providing a rapid bidirectional signaling system to control tissue structure and function. However, following injury, peripheral nerves can regenerate much more effectively than those of the central nervous system (CNS). This multicellular process is coordinated by peripheral glia, in particular Schwann cells, which have multiple roles in stimulating and nurturing the regrowth of damaged axons back to their targets. Aside from the repair of damaged nerves themselves, nerve regenerative processes have been linked to the repair of other tissues and de novo innervation appears important in establishing an environment conducive for the development and spread of tumors. In contrast, defects in these processes are linked to neuropathies, aging, and pain. In this review, we focus on the role of peripheral glia, especially Schwann cells, in multiple aspects of nerve regeneration and discuss how these findings may be relevant for pathologies associated with these processes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study compared the survival of persons with secondary acute myeloid leukemia (sAML) to those with de novo AML (dnAML) by age at AML diagnosis, chemotherapy receipt, and cancer type preceding sAML diagnosis. METHODS Data from Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results 17 Registries were used, which included 47,704 individuals diagnosed with AML between 2001 and 2018. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression was used to compare AML-specific survival between sAML and dnAML. Trends in 5-year age-standardized relative survival were examined via the Joinpoint survival model. RESULTS Overall, individuals with sAML had an 8% higher risk of dying from AML (hazard ratio [HR], 1.08; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.05-1.11) compared to those with dnAML. Disparities widened with younger age at diagnosis, particularly in those who received chemotherapy for AML (HR, 1.14; 95% CI, 1.10-1.19). In persons aged 20-64 years and who received chemotherapy, HRs were greatest for those with antecedent myelodysplastic syndrome (HR, 2.04; 95% CI, 1.83-2.28), ovarian cancer (HR, 1.91; 95% CI, 1.19-3.08), head and neck cancer (HR, 1.55; 95% CI, 1.02-2.36), leukemia (HR, 1.45; 95% CI, 1.12-1.89), and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (HR, 1.42; 95% CI, 1.20-1.69). Among those aged ≥65 years and who received chemotherapy, HRs were highest for those with antecedent cervical cancer (HR, 2.42; 95% CI, 1.15-5.10) and myelodysplastic syndrome (HR, 1.28; 95% CI, 1.19-1.38). The 5-year relative survival improved 0.3% per year for sAML slower than 0.86% per year for dnAML. Consequently, the survival gap widened from 7.2% (95% CI, 5.4%-9.0%) during the period 2001-2003 to 14.3% (95% CI, 12.8%-15.8%) during the period 2012-2014. CONCLUSIONS Significant survival disparities exist between sAML and dnAML on the basis of age at diagnosis, chemotherapy receipt, and antecedent cancer, which highlights opportunities to improve outcomes among those diagnosed with sAML.

Abstract
Hematopoiesis occurs in the bone marrow (BM), within a specialized microenvironment referred to as the stem cell niche, where the hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) reside and are regulated for quiescence, self-renewal and differentiation through intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms. The BM contains at least two distinctive HSC-supportive niches: an endosteal osteoblastic niche that supports quiescence and self-renewal and a more vascular/perisinusoidal niche that promotes proliferation and differentiation. Both associate with supporting mesenchymal stromal cells. Within the more hypoxic osteoblastic niche, HSCs specifically interact with the osteoblasts that line the endosteal surface, which secrete several important HSC quiescence and maintenance regulatory factors. In vivo imaging indicates that the HSCs and progenitors located further away, in the vicinity of sinusoidal endothelial cells, are more proliferative. Here, HSCs interact with endothelial cells via specific cell adhesion molecules. Endothelial cells also secrete several factors important for HSC homeostasis and proliferation. In addition, HSCs and mesenchymal stromal cells are embedded within the extracellular matrix (ECM), an important network of proteins such as collagen, elastin, laminin, proteoglycans, vitronectin, and fibronectin. The ECM provides mechanical characteristics such as stiffness and elasticity important for cell behavior regulation. ECM proteins are also able to bind, sequester, display, and distribute growth factors across the BM, thus directly affecting stem cell fate and regulation of hematopoiesis. These important physical and chemical features of the BM require careful consideration when creating three-dimensional models of the BM.

Abstract
The bone marrow (BM) niche is a complex microenvironment that provides the signals required for regulation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and the process of hematopoiesis they are responsible for. Bioengineered models of the BM niche incorporate various elements of the in vivo BM microenvironment, including cellular components, soluble factors, a three-dimensional environment, mechanical stimulation of included cells, and perfusion. Recent advances in the bioengineering field have resulted in a spate of new models that shed light on BM function and are approaching precise imitation of the BM niche. These models promise to improve our understanding of the in vivo microenvironment in health and disease. They also aim to serve as platforms for HSC manipulation or as preclinical models for screening novel therapies for BM-associated disorders and diseases.

Abstract
The bone marrow adjusts blood cell production to meet physiological demands in response to insults. The spatial organization of normal and stress responses are unknown owing to the lack of methods to visualize most steps of blood production. Here we develop strategies to image multipotent haematopoiesis, erythropoiesis and lymphopoiesis in mice. We combine these with imaging of myelopoiesis1 to define the anatomy of normal and stress haematopoiesis. In the steady state, across the skeleton, single stem cells and multipotent progenitors distribute through the marrow enriched near megakaryocytes. Lineage-committed progenitors are recruited to blood vessels, where they contribute to lineage-specific microanatomical structures composed of progenitors and immature cells, which function as the production sites for each major blood lineage. This overall anatomy is resilient to insults, as it was maintained after haemorrhage, systemic bacterial infection and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) treatment, and during ageing. Production sites enable haematopoietic plasticity as they differentially and selectively modulate their numbers and output in response to insults. We found that stress responses are variable across the skeleton: the tibia and the sternum respond in opposite ways to G-CSF, and the skull does not increase erythropoiesis after haemorrhage. Our studies enable in situ analyses of haematopoiesis, define the anatomy of normal and stress responses, identify discrete microanatomical production sites that confer plasticity to haematopoiesis, and uncover unprecedented heterogeneity of stress responses across the skeleton.

Abstract
Mutations of the CBP/p300 histone acetyltransferase (HAT) domain can be linked to leukemic transformation in humans, suggestive of a checkpoint of leukocyte compartment sizes. Here, we examined the impact of reversible inhibition of this domain by the small-molecule A485. We found that A485 triggered acute and transient mobilization of leukocytes from the bone marrow into the blood. Leukocyte mobilization by A485 was equally potent as, but mechanistically distinct from, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), which allowed for additive neutrophil mobilization when both compounds were combined. These effects were maintained in models of leukopenia and conferred augmented host defenses. Mechanistically, activation of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal gland (HPA) axis by A485 relayed shifts in leukocyte distribution through corticotropin-releasing hormone receptor 1 (CRHR1) and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), but independently of glucocorticoids. Our findings identify a strategy for rapid expansion of the blood leukocyte compartment via a neuroendocrine loop, with implications for the treatment of human pathologies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) following high-dose melphalan is the standard treatment for Multiple Myeloma (MM). Despite new treatments, further investigation is needed to identify prognostic factors of ASCT. This study evaluated the impact of thrombocytopenia and anemia on the engraftment of MM patients after ASCT. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study involved 123 MM patients who underwent ASCT with high-dose Melphalan. Successful engraftment is achieved when both platelets (Plt) and white blood cells (WBC) engraft successfully. We examined the statistically significant cut-offs for the prognostic factors on the admission day. Ultimately, the association of risk factors with the Plt and WBC engraftment and long-term survival were analyzed as the outcomes of interest. RESULTS Spearman's correlation coefficient between Plt and WBC engraftment was 0.396 (p < 0.001). The engraftment in the patients with Plt < 140,000/μL was 17.4% slower (p = 0.036) and the odds of long-term survival was 72% lower (p = 0.016) than in patients with higher Plt. Patients with Hb < 11 g/dL were 12.7% slower in engraftment. Age over 47 was a significant factor in slower engraftment (p = 0.036) which decelerated the engraftment by 15.2%. CONCLUSION Thrombocytopenia and anemia before transplantation are related to slower Plt/WBC engraftment and as prognostic factors might predict the long-term survival of MM patients following ASCT.

Abstract
Jixueteng, the vine of the bush Spatholobus suberectus Dunn., is widely used to treat irregular menstruation and arthralgia. Yinyanghuo, the aboveground part of the plant Epimedium brevicornum Maxim., has the function of warming the kidney to invigorate yang. This research aimed to investigate the effects and mechanisms of the Jixueteng and Yinyanghuo herbal pair (JYHP) on cisplatin-induced myelosuppression in a mice model. Firstly, ultra-high performance liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF/MS) screened 15 effective compounds of JYHP decoction. Network pharmacology enriched 10 genes which may play a role by inhibiting the apoptosis of bone marrow (BM) cells. Then, a myelosuppression C57BL/6 mice model was induced by intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of cis-Diaminodichloroplatinum (cisplatin, CDDP) and followed by the intragastric (i.g.) administration of JYHP decoction. The efficacy was evaluated by blood cell count, reticulocyte count, and histopathological analysis of bone marrow and spleen. Through the vivo experiments, we found the timing of JYHP administration affected the effect of drug administration, JYHP had a better therapeutical effect rather than a preventive effect. JYHP obviously recovered the hematopoietic function of bone marrow from the peripheral blood cell test and pathological staining. Flow cytometry data showed JYHP decreased the apoptosis rate of BM cells and the western blotting showed JYHP downregulated the cleaved Caspase-3/Caspase-3 ratios through RAS/MEK/ERK pathway. In conclusion, JYHP alleviated CDDP-induced myelosuppression by inhibiting the apoptosis of BM cells through RAS/MEK/ERK pathway and the optimal timing of JYHP administration was after CDDP administration.

Leptin receptor + cells promote bone marrow innervation and regeneration by synthesizing nerve growth factor. Nat Cell Biol 2023; 25:1746-1757.

Abstract
The bone marrow contains peripheral nerves that promote haematopoietic regeneration after irradiation or chemotherapy (myeloablation), but little is known about how this is regulated. Here we found that nerve growth factor (NGF) produced by leptin receptor-expressing (LepR+) stromal cells is required to maintain nerve fibres in adult bone marrow. In nerveless bone marrow, steady-state haematopoiesis was normal but haematopoietic and vascular regeneration were impaired after myeloablation. LepR+ cells, and the adipocytes they gave rise to, increased NGF production after myeloablation, promoting nerve sprouting in the bone marrow and haematopoietic and vascular regeneration. Nerves promoted regeneration by activating β2 and β3 adrenergic receptor signalling in LepR+ cells, and potentially in adipocytes, increasing their production of multiple haematopoietic and vascular regeneration growth factors. Peripheral nerves and LepR+ cells thus promote bone marrow regeneration through a reciprocal relationship in which LepR+ cells sustain nerves by synthesizing NGF and nerves increase regeneration by promoting the production of growth factors by LepR+ cells.

Abstract
The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) comprises a broad set of functional peptides and receptors that play a role in cardiovascular homeostasis and contribute to cardiovascular pathologies. Angiotensin II (Ang II) is the most potent peptide hormone produced by the RAS due to its high abundance and its strong and pleiotropic impact on the cardiovascular system. Formation of Ang II takes place in the bloodstream and additionally in tissues in the so-called local RAS. Of the two Ang II receptors (AT1 and AT2) that Ang II binds to, AT1 is the most expressed throughout the mammalian body. AT1 expression is not restricted to cells of the cardiovascular system but in fact AT1 protein is found in nearly all organs, hence, Ang II takes part in several modulatory physiological processes one of which is erythropoiesis. In this review, we present multiple evidence supporting that Ang II modulates physiological and pathological erythropoiesis processes trough the AT1 receptor. Cumulative evidence indicates that Ang II by three distinct mechanisms influences erythropoiesis: 1) stimulation of renal erythropoietin synthesis; 2) direct action on bone marrow precursor cells; and 3) modulation of sympathetic nerve activity to the bone marrow. The text highlights clinical and preclinical evidence focusing on mechanistic studies using rodent models.

Abstract
Decades of extensive research have documented the presence of neural innervations of sensory, sympathetic, or parasympathetic origin in primary and secondary lymphoid organs. Such neural inputs can release neurotransmitters and neuropeptides to directly modulate the functions of various immune cells, which represents one of the essential aspects of the body's neuroimmune network. Notably, recent studies empowered by state-of-the-art imaging techniques have comprehensively assessed neural distribution patterns in BM, thymus, spleen, and LNs of rodents and humans, helping clarify several controversies lingering in the field. In addition, it has become evident that neural innervations in lymphoid organs are not static but undergo alterations in pathophysiological contexts. This review aims to update the current information on the neuroanatomy of lymphoid organs obtained through whole-tissue 3D imaging and genetic approaches, focusing on anatomical features that may designate the functional modulation of immune responses. Moreover, we discuss several critical questions that call for future research, which will advance our in-depth understanding of the importance and complexity of neural control of lymphoid organs.

Abstract
A peripheral injury drives neuroimmune interactions at the level of the injury and throughout the neuraxis. Understanding these systems will be beneficial in the pursuit to target persistent pain that involves both neural and immune components. In this review, we discuss the impact of injury on the development of neuroimmune signaling, along with data that suggest a possible cellular immune memory. We also discuss the parallel effects of injury in the nervous system and immune related areas including bone marrow, lymph node and central nervous system-related cells. Finally, we relate these findings to patient populations and current research that evaluates human tissue.

Abstract
The intestinal epithelium has high intrinsic turnover rate, and the precise renewal of the epithelium is dependent on the microenvironment. The intestine is innervated by a dense network of peripheral nerves that controls various aspects of intestinal physiology. However, the role of neurons in regulating epithelial cell regeneration remains largely unknown. Here, we investigated the effects of gut-innervating adrenergic nerves on epithelial cell repair following irradiation (IR)-induced injury. We observed that adrenergic nerve density in the small intestine increased post IR, while chemical adrenergic denervation impaired epithelial regeneration. Single-cell RNA sequencing experiments revealed a decrease in IL-22 signaling post IR in denervated animals. Combining pharmacologic and genetic tools, we demonstrate that β-adrenergic receptor signaling drives IL-22 production from type 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) post IR, which in turn promotes epithelial regeneration. These results define an adrenergic-ILC3 axis important for intestinal regeneration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite recent advances in research, there are still critical lacunae in our basic understanding of the cause, pathogenesis, and natural history of many cancers, especially heterogeneity in patient response to drugs and mediators in the transition from malignant to invasive phenotypes. The explication of the pathogenesis of cancer has been constrained by limited access to patient samples, tumor heterogeneity and lack of reliable biological models. Amelioration in cancer treatment depends on further understanding of the etiologic, genetic, biological, and clinical heterogeneity of tumor microenvironment. Patient-derived organoids recapitulate the basic features of primary tumors, including histological complexity and genetic heterogeneity, which is instrumental in predicting patient response to drugs. METHODS Human iPSCs from healthy donors, breast and ovarian cancer patients were successfully differentiated towards isogenic hepatic, cardiac, neural and endothelial lineages. Multicellular organoids were established using Primary cells isolated from tumor tissues, histologically normal tissues adjacent to the tumors (NATs) and adipose tissues (source of Mesenchymal Stem Cells) from ovarian and breast cancer patients. Further these organoids were propagated and used for drug resistance/sensitivity studies. RESULTS Ovarian and breast cancer patients' organoids showed heterogeneity in drug resistance and sensitivity. iPSCs-derived cardiomyocytes, hepatocytes and neurons showed donor-to-donor variability of chemotherapeutic drug sensitivity in ovarian cancer patients, breast cancer patients and healthy donors. CONCLUSION We report development of a novel integrated platform to facilitate clinical decision-making using the patient's primary cells, iPSCs and derivatives, to clinically relevant models for oncology research.

Abstract
Cancer cell receives extracellular signal inputs to obtain a stem-like status, yet how tumor microenvironmental (TME) neural signals steer cancer stemness to establish the hierarchical tumor architectures remains elusive. Here, a pan-cancer transcriptomic screening for 10852 samples of 33 TCGA cancer types reveals that cAMP-responsive element (CRE) transcription factors are convergent activators for cancer stemness. Deconvolution of transcriptomic profiles, specification of neural markers and illustration of norepinephrine dynamics uncover a bond between TME neural signals and cancer-cell CRE activity. Specifically, neural signal norepinephrine potentiates the stemness of proximal cancer cells by activating cAMP-CRE axis, where ATF1 serves as a conserved hub. Upon activation by norepinephrine, ATF1 potentiates cancer stemness by coordinated trans-activation of both nuclear pluripotency factors MYC/NANOG and mitochondrial biogenesis regulators NRF1/TFAM, thereby orchestrating nuclear reprograming and mitochondrial rejuvenating. Accordingly, single-cell transcriptomes confirm the coordinated activation of nuclear pluripotency with mitochondrial biogenesis in cancer stem-like cells. These findings elucidate that cancer cell acquires stemness via a norepinephrine-ATF1 driven nucleus-mitochondria collaborated program, suggesting a spatialized stemness acquisition by hijacking microenvironmental neural signals.

Traumatic brain injury stimulates sympathetic tone-mediated bone marrow myelopoiesis to favor fracture healing. Signal Transduct Target Ther 2023; 8:260. [PMID: 37402714 DOI: 10.1038/s41392-023-01457-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2022] [Revised: 04/08/2023] [Accepted: 04/25/2023] [Indexed: 07/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) accelerates fracture healing, but the underlying mechanism remains largely unknown. Accumulating evidence indicates that the central nervous system (CNS) plays a pivotal role in regulating immune system and skeletal homeostasis. However, the impact of CNS injury on hematopoiesis commitment was overlooked. Here, we found that the dramatically elevated sympathetic tone accompanied with TBI-accelerated fracture healing; chemical sympathectomy blocks TBI-induced fracture healing. TBI-induced hypersensitivity of adrenergic signaling promotes the proliferation of bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and swiftly skews HSCs toward anti-inflammation myeloid cells within 14 days, which favor fracture healing. Knockout of β3- or β2-adrenergic receptor (AR) eliminate TBI-mediated anti-inflammation macrophage expansion and TBI-accelerated fracture healing. RNA sequencing of bone marrow cells revealed that Adrb2 and Adrb3 maintain proliferation and commitment of immune cells. Importantly, flow cytometry confirmed that deletion of β2-AR inhibits M2 polarization of macrophages at 7th day and 14th day; and TBI-induced HSCs proliferation was impaired in β3-AR knockout mice. Moreover, β3- and β2-AR agonists synergistically promote infiltration of M2 macrophages in callus and accelerate bone healing process. Thus, we conclude that TBI accelerates bone formation during early stage of fracture healing process by shaping the anti-inflammation environment in the bone marrow. These results implicate that the adrenergic signals could serve as potential targets for fracture management.

Abstract
Upon exposure to external stressors, the body senses them and activates the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) to maintain the homeostasis, which is known as the "fight-or-flight" response. Recent studies have revealed that the SNS also plays pivotal roles in regulating immune responses, such as hematopoiesis, leukocyte mobilization, and inflammation. Indeed, overactivation of the SNS causes many inflammatory diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, metabolic disorders, and autoimmune diseases. However, the molecular basis essential for SNS-mediated immune regulation is not completely understood. In this review, we focus on axon guidance cues, semaphorins, which play multifaceted roles in neural and immune systems. We summarize the functions of semaphorins in the crosstalk between the SNS and the immune system, exploring its pathophysiological roles.

SMALL METHODS 2023; 7:e2201300. [PMID: 36843214 DOI: 10.1002/smtd.202201300] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2022] [Revised: 01/24/2023] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) of the bone marrow regulates the regeneration and mobilization of hematopoietic stem cells. Chemotherapy can damage bone marrow SNS, which impairs hematopoietic regeneration and aggravates hematologic toxicities. This leads to long-term bone marrow niche damage and increases mortality in patients undergoing chemotherapy. Electrical neuromodulation has been used to improve functional recovery after peripheral nerve injury. This study demonstrates that electrical sympathetic neuromodulation (ESN) of bone marrow can protect the bone marrow niche from chemotherapy-induced injury. Using carboplatin-treated rats, the SNS via the sciatic nerve innervating the femoral marrow with the effective protocol for bone marrow sympathetic activation is electrically stimulated. ESN can mediate several hematopoietic stem cells maintenance factors and promote hematopoietic regeneration after chemotherapy. It also activates adrenergic signals and reduces the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, particularly interleukin-1 β, which contribute to chemotherapy-related nerve injury. Consequently, the severity of chemotherapy-related leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, and mortality can be reduced by ESN. As a result, in contrast to current drug-based treatment, such as granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, ESN can be a disruptive adjuvant treatment by protecting and modulating bone marrow function to reduce hematologic toxicity during chemotherapy.

Abstract
According to observational findings, ionizing radiation (IR) triggers dysbiosis of the intestinal microbiota, affecting the structural composition, function, and species of the gut microbiome and its metabolites. These modifications can further exacerbate IR-induced damage and amplify proinflammatory immune responses. Conversely, commensal bacteria and favorable metabolites can remodel the IR-disturbed gut microbial structure, promote a balance between anti-inflammatory and proinflammatory mechanisms in the body, and mitigate IR toxicity. The discovery of effective and safe remedies to prevent and treat radiation-induced injuries is vitally needed because of the proliferation of radiation toxicity threats produced by recent radiological public health disasters and increasing medical exposures. This review examines how the gut microbiota and its metabolites are linked to the processes of IR-induced harm. We highlight protective measures based on interventions with gut microbes to optimize the distress caused by IR damage to human health. We offer prospects for research in emerging and promising areas targeting the prevention and treatment of IR-induced damage.

Abstract
Chemotherapy prior to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) treatment appears to improve ICB efficacy but resistance to ICB remains a clinical challenge and is attributed to highly plastic myeloid cells associating with the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME). Here we show by CITE-seq single-cell transcriptomic and trajectory analyses that neoadjuvant low-dose metronomic chemotherapy (MCT) leads to a characteristic co-evolution of divergent myeloid cell subsets in female triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Specifically, we identify that the proportion of CXCL16 + myeloid cells increase and a high STAT1 regulon activity distinguishes Programmed Death Ligand 1 (PD-L1) expressing immature myeloid cells. Chemical inhibition of STAT1 signaling in MCT-primed breast cancer sensitizes TNBC to ICB treatment, which underscores the STAT1's role in modulating TIME. In summary, we leverage single-cell analyses to dissect the cellular dynamics in the tumor microenvironment (TME) following neoadjuvant chemotherapy and provide a pre-clinical rationale for modulating STAT1 in combination with anti-PD-1 for TNBC patients.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are the common and essential precursors of all blood cells, including immune cells, and they are responsible for the lifelong maintenance and damage repair of blood tissue homeostasis. The vast majority (> 95%) of HSCs are in a resting state under physiological conditions and are only activated to play a functional role under stress conditions. This resting state affects their long-term survival and is also closely related to the lifelong maintenance of hematopoietic function; however, abnormal changes may also be an important factor leading to the decline of immune function in the body and the occurrence of diseases in various systems. While the importance of resting HSCs has attracted increasing research attention, our current understanding of this topic remains insufficient, and the direction of clinical targeted treatments is unclear. Here, we describe the functions of HSCs, analyze the regulatory mechanisms that affect their resting state, and discuss the relationship between resting HSCs and different diseases, with a view to providing guidance for the future clinical implementation of related targeted treatments.

Abstract
Chemoimmunotherapy is an effective method to treat cancer, and thus various vehicles have been constructed to co-deliver immune agents and anticancer drugs. But the immune induction process in vivo is highly susceptible to the influence of the material itself. To avoid immune reactions by the materials of delivery systems, herein, a new kind of zwitterionic cryogels (SH cryogels) with extremely low immunogenicity was prepared for chemoimmunotherapy of cancer. Their macroporous structure enabled the SH cryogels to have good compressibility and be injected through a conventional syringe. The loaded chemotherapeutic drugs and immune adjuvants were accurately, locally and long-termly released in the vicinity of tumors, enhancing the outcome of tumor therapy and minimizing the damage caused by the chemotherapeutic drugs to other organ tissues. In vivo tumor treatment experiments indicated that chemoimmunotherapy using the SH cryogel platform could inhibit the growth of breast cancer tumors to the greatest extent. Furthermore, macropores of SH cryogels supported cells to move freely in the cryogels, which could promote the dendritic cells to capture the in situ produced tumor antigens and present them to T cells. The ability to act as cradles for cell infiltration made the SH cryogels promising for applications as vaccine platforms.

Abstract
Prior research establishing that bone interacts in coordination with the bone marrow microenvironment (BMME) to regulate hematopoietic homeostasis was largely based on analyses of individual bone-associated cell populations. Recent advances in intravital imaging has suggested that the expansion of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and acute myeloid leukemia cells is restricted to bone marrow microdomains during a distinct stage of bone remodeling. These findings indicate that dynamic bone remodeling likely imposes additional heterogeneity within the BMME to yield differential clonal responses. A holistic understanding of the role of bone remodeling in regulating the stem cell niche and how these interactions are altered in age-related hematological malignancies will be critical to the development of novel interventions. To advance this understanding, herein, we provide a synopsis of the cellular and molecular constituents that participate in bone turnover and their known connections to the hematopoietic compartment. Specifically, we elaborate on the coupling between bone remodeling and the BMME in homeostasis and age-related hematological malignancies and after treatment with bone-targeting approaches. We then discuss unresolved questions and ambiguities that remain in the field.

Abstract
Cisplatin is a chemotherapy medication used to treat a wide range of cancers. A common side effect of cisplatin is myelosuppression. Research suggests that oxidative damages are strongly and consistently related to myelosuppression during cisplatin treatment. ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) can enhance the antioxidant capacity of cells. Herein, we investigated the protective benefit of endogenous ω-3 PUFAs on cisplatin-induced myelosuppression and the underlying signaling pathways using a transgenic mfat-1 mouse model. The expression of mfat-1 gene can increase endogenous levels of ω-3 PUFAs by enzymatically converting ω-6 PUFAs. Cisplatin treatment reduced peripheral blood cells and bone marrow nucleated cells, induced DNA damage, increased the production of reactive oxygen species, and activated p53-mediated apoptosis in bone marrow (BM) cells of wild-type mice. In the transgenics, the elevated tissue ω-3 PUFAs rendered a robust preventative effect on these cisplatin-induced damages. Importantly, we identified that the activation of NRF2 by ω-3 PUFAs could trigger an antioxidant response and inhibit p53-mediated apoptosis by increasing the expression of MDM2 in BM cells. Thus, endogenous ω-3 PUFAs enrichment can strongly prevent cisplatin-induced myelosuppression by inhibiting oxidative damage and regulating the NRF2-MDM2-p53 signaling pathway. Elevation of tissue ω-3 PUFAs may represent a promising treatment strategy to prevent the side effects of cisplatin.

Abstract
The relationship between bone tissue and bone marrow, which is responsible for hematopoiesis, is inseparable. Osteoblasts and osteocytes, which produce and consist of bone tissue, regulate the function of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC), the ancestors of all hematopoietic cells in the bone marrow. The peripheral nervous system finely regulates bone remodeling in bone tissue and modulates HSC function within the bone marrow, either directly or indirectly via modification of the HSC niche function. Peripheral nerve signals also play an important role in the development and progression of malignant tumors (including hematopoietic tumors) and normal tissues, and peripheral nerve control is emerging as a potential new therapeutic target. In this review, we summarize recent findings on the linkage among blood system, bone tissue, and peripheral nerves.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study is purposed to establish a predictive model for acute severe hematologic toxicity (HT) during radiotherapy in patients with cervical or endometrial cancer and investigate whether the integration of clinical features and computed tomography (CT) radiomics features of the pelvic bone marrow (BM) could define a more precise model. METHODS A total of 207 patients with cervical or endometrial cancer from three cohorts were retrospectively included in this study. Forty-one clinical variables and 2226 pelvic BM radiomic features that were extracted from planning CT scans were included in the model construction. Following feature selection, model training was performed on the clinical and radiomics features via machine learning, respectively. The radiomics score, which was the output of the final radiomics model, was integrated with the variables that were selected by the clinical model to construct a combined model. The performance of the models was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). RESULTS The best-performing prediction model comprised two clinical features (FIGO stage and cycles of postoperative chemotherapy) and radiomics score and achieved an AUC of 0.88 (95% CI, 0.81-0.93) in the training set, 0.80 (95% CI, 0.62-0.92) in the internal-test set and 0.85 (95% CI, 0.71-0.94) in the external-test dataset. CONCLUSION The proposed model which incorporates radiomics signature and clinical factors outperforms the models based on clinical or radiomics features alone in terms of the AUC. The value of the pelvic BM radiomics in chemoradiotherapy-induced HT is worthy of further investigation.

Abstract
Functional stromal cells are known to support bone marrow regeneration after chemotherapy or radiation-induced injury to prevent prolonged myelosuppression. However, it is not known how stromal cells within the bone marrow are regenerated after injury. We have utilized a whole bone transplantation model that mimics the initial bone marrow necrosis and fatty infiltration that is seen after bone marrow injury and subsequent recovery. We demonstrate that periosteal skeletal stem cells (P-SSCs) can migrate into the bone marrow and contribute to stromal regeneration and hematopoietic recovery. Once in the bone marrow, P-SSCs are phenotypically and functionally reprogrammed into bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs), expressing high levels of hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) niche factors, such as Cxcl12 and Kitl. Additionally, our results further indicate that P-SSCs are more resistant to acute stress than BM-MSCs. Here, we report a new function of P-SSCs, highlighting their major plasticity and the role of the periosteum as a potential source of BM-MSCs following acute bone marrow injury.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are maintained in the bone marrow microenvironment, also known as the niche, that regulates their proliferation, self-renewal, and differentiation. In this chapter, we will introduce the history of HSC niche research and review the interdependencies between HSCs and their niches. We will further highlight recent advances in our understanding of HSC heterogeneity with regard to HSC subpopulations and their interacting cellular and molecular bone marrow niche constituents.

Abstract
Significance: Emerging evidence has shown a link between the status of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and wound healing responses. Thus, better understanding HSCs will contribute to further advances in wound healing research. Recent Advances: Myeloid cells such as neutrophils and monocyte-derived macrophages are critical players in the process of wound healing. HSCs actively respond to wound injury and other tissue insults, including infection and produce the effector myeloid cells, and a failing of the HSC response can result in impaired wound healing. Technological advances such as transcriptome at single-cell resolution, epigenetics, three-dimensional imaging, transgenic animals, and animal models, have provided novel concepts of myeloid generation (myelopoiesis) from HSCs, and have revealed cell-intrinsic and -extrinsic mechanisms that can impact HSC functions in the context of health conditions. Critical Issues: The newer concepts include-the programmed cellular fate at a differentiation stage that is used to be considered as the multilineage, the signaling pathways that can activate HSCs directly and indirectly, the mechanisms that can deteriorate HSCs, the roles and remodeling of the surrounding environment for HSCs and their progenitors (the niche). Future Directions: The researches on HSCs, which produce blood cells, should contribute to the development of blood biomarkers predicting a risk of chronic wounds, which may transform clinical practice of wound care with precision medicine for patients at high risk of poor healing.

Abstract
The peripheral nervous system (PNS) endows animals with the remarkable ability to sense and respond to a dynamic world. Emerging evidence shows the PNS also participates in tissue homeostasis and repair by integrating local changes with organismal and environmental changes. Here, we provide an in-depth summary of findings delineating the diverse roles of peripheral nerves in modulating stem cell behaviors and immune responses under steady-state conditions and in response to injury and duress, with a specific focus on the skin and the hematopoietic system. These examples showcase how elucidating neuro-stem cell and neuro-immune cell interactions provides a conceptual framework that connects tissue biology and local immunity with systemic bodily changes to meet varying demands. They also demonstrate how changes in these interactions can manifest in stress, aging, cancer, and inflammation, as well as how these findings can be harnessed to guide the development of new therapeutics.

Abstract
In mammals, hematopoiesis migrates to the bone marrow during embryogenesis coincident with the appearance of mineralized bone, where hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and their progeny are maintained by the surrounding microenvironment or niche, and sustain the entirety of the hematopoietic system. Genetic manipulation of niche factors and advances in cell lineage tracing techniques have implicated cells of both hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic origin as important regulators of hematopoiesis in health and disease. Among them, cells of the osteoblast lineage, from stromal skeletal stem cells to matrix-embedded osteocytes, are vital niche residents with varying capacities for hematopoietic support depending on stage of differentiation. Here, we review populations of osteoblasts at differing stages of differentiation and summarize the current understanding of the role of the osteoblast lineage in supporting hematopoiesis. © 2022 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Abstract
Numerous tissue regeneration paradigms show evident neurological dependence, including mammalian fingertip, skin, and bone regeneration. The mature skeleton is innervated by an abundant nervous system that infiltrates the developing axial and appendicular bones and maintains the stability of the systemic skeletal system by controlling blood flow, regulating bone metabolism, secreting neurotransmitters, and regulating stem cell behavior. In recent years, neurotization in tissue-engineered bone has been considered as a promising strategy to effectively overcome the challenge of vascularization and innervation regeneration in the central zone of "critical-sized bone defects" that conventional tissue-engineered scaffolds are unable to handle, however, further validation is needed in relevant clinical applications. Therefore, this study reviews the mechanisms by which the nervous system regulates bone metabolism and regeneration through a variety of neurogenic or non-neurogenic factors, as well as the recent progress and design strategies of neuralized tissue-engineered bone, to provide new ideas for further studies on subsequent neural bone tissue engineering. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: The interaction of nerve and bone tissue during skeletal development and repair has attracted widespread attention, with emerging evidences highlighting the regulation of bone metabolism and regeneration by the nervous system, but the underlying mechanisms have not been elucidated. Thus, further applications of neuro-bone tissue engineering still needs careful consideration. In this review, we summarize the numerous neurogenic and non-neurogenic factors which are involved in bone repair and regeneration, and further explore the current status of their application and biomaterial design in neuro-bone tissue engineering, and finally discuss the challenge and prospective for neuro-bone tissue engineering to facilitate its further development.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a potentially curative therapy for patients with a variety of malignant and non-malignant diseases. Despite its life-saving potential, HCT is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Reciprocal interactions between hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and their surrounding bone marrow (BM) niche regulate HSC function during homeostatic hematopoiesis as well as regeneration. However, current pre-HCT conditioning regimens, which consist of high-dose chemotherapy and/or irradiation, cause substantial short- and long-term toxicity to the BM niche. This damage may negatively affect HSC function, impair hematopoietic regeneration after HCT and predispose to HCT-related morbidity and mortality. In this review, we summarize current knowledge on the cellular composition of the human BM niche after HCT. We describe how pre-HCT conditioning affects the cell types in the niche, including endothelial cells, mesenchymal stromal cells, osteoblasts, adipocytes, and neurons. Finally, we discuss therapeutic strategies to prevent or repair conditioning-induced niche damage, which may promote hematopoietic recovery and improve HCT outcome.

Abstract
Bone marrow (BM) innervation regulates the mobilization of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) from BM and stress hematopoiesis by either acting directly on HSPCs or by altering the niche function of mesenchymal and endothelial cells. However, the spatial distribution of BM innervation across bone regions is yet to be fully elucidated. Thus, we aimed to characterize the distribution of sympathetic and nociceptive nerves in each bone and BM region, using three-dimensional quantitative microscopy. We discovered that sympathetic and nociceptive nerves were the major fibers throughout the BM. Compared to other femoral regions, central parts of the femoral BM were more densely innervated by both sympathetic and nociceptive nerves. Each region of the sternum was similarly innervated by sympathetic and nociceptive nerves. Further, the majority of sympathetic and nociceptive nerves in the BM ran parallel with arteries and arterioles, whereas the degree varied according to the bone types or BM regions. In conclusion, this study provides spatial, topological, and functional information on BM innervation in a quantitative manner and demonstrates that sympathetic and nociceptive nerves are two major components in BM innervation, mostly associated with arteries and arterioles.

[PMID: 35936677 PMCID: PMC9354951 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.918271] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2022] [Accepted: 06/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction The incidence of metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the anus (SCCA) is increasing. Even if systemic docetaxel, cisplatin, and 5-Fluorouracil (DCF) provide a high rate of long-term remission, the role of pelvic chemoradiation (CRT) is unknown in this setting. We reported the safety and efficacy of local CRT in patients with synchronous metastatic SCCA who achieved objective response after upfront DCF. Methods Patients included in Epitopes HPV01 or Epitopes HPV02 or SCARCE trials and treated with DCF followed by pelvic CRT were included. Concurrent chemotherapy was based on mitomycin (MMC) (10 mg/m² for two cycles) and fluoropyrimidine (capecitabine 825 mg/m² twice a day at each RT treatment day or two cycles of intra-venous 5FU 1000 mg/m² from day 1 to day 4). Primary endpoints were safety, local complete response rate, and local progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary endpoints were PFS, overall survival (OS), and metastasis-free survival (MFS). Results From 2013 to 2018, 16 patients received DCF followed by a complementary pelvic CRT for advanced SCCA. Median follow-up was 42 months [range, 11-71]. All patients received the complete radiation dose. Compliance to concurrent CT was poor. Overall, 13/15 of the patients (87%) had at least one grade 1-2 acute toxicity and 11/15 of the patients (73%) had at least one grade 3-4 toxicity. There was no treatment-related death. The most frequent grade 3-4 adverse effects were neutropenia (36%), dermatitis (40%), and anitis (47%). Eleven patients (73%) had at least one chronic grade 1 or 2 toxicity. One patient had a grade 4 chronic rectitis (7%). Complete local response rate was 81% at first evaluation and 62.5% at the end of the follow-up. Median local PFS was not reached and the 3-year local PFS was 77% (95%CI 76.8-77). Conclusions In patients with metastatic SCCA who had a significant objective response after upfront DCF, local CRT was feasible with high complete local response rate. The good local control rate, despite interruptions due to toxicities and low CT compliance, underline the role of pelvic RT. The high rate of toxicity prompts the need to adapt CRT regimen in the metastatic setting.

Abstract
In this retrospective, we review the two research topics that formed the basis of the outstanding career of Dr. Paul S. Frenette. In the first part, we focus on sickle cell disease (SCD). The defining feature of SCD is polymerization of the deoxygenated mutant hemoglobin, which leads to a vicious cycle of hemolysis and vaso-occlusion. We survey important discoveries in SCD pathophysiology that have led to recent advances in treatment of SCD. The second part focuses on the hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) niche, the complex microenvironment within the bone marrow that controls HSC function and homeostasis. We detail the cells that constitute this niche, and the factors that these cells use to exert control over hematopoiesis. Here, we trace the scientific paths of Dr. Frenette, highlight key aspects of his research, and identify his most important scientific contributions in both fields.

Effects of Prophylactic Administration of Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor on Peripheral Leukocyte and Neutrophil Counts Levels After Chemotherapy in Patients With Early-Stage Breast Cancer: A Retrospective Cohort Study. Front Oncol 2022; 12:777602. [PMID: 35547875 PMCID: PMC9084938 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.777602] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2021] [Accepted: 03/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Both chemotherapy-induced neutropenia (CIN) and febrile neutropenia (FN) frequently occur and can lead to dose-limiting toxicity and even fatal chemotherapy side effects. The prophylactic use of recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rhG-CSF), including pegylated rhG-CSF (PEG-rhG-CSF), significantly reduces the risks of CIN and FN during chemotherapy in early-stage breast cancer (ESBC) patients. However, whether the prophylactic use of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), especially PEG-rhG-CSF, can influence white blood cell (WBC) counts and absolute neutrophil counts (ANCs) after finishing the chemotherapy remains unknown. Therefore, exploring the development and recovery tendency of WBC counts and ANCs during and after chemotherapy is crucial. Objective We aimed to investigate the variation tendency and recovery of WBC counts and ANCs during and after chemotherapy and evaluate the independent factors influencing leukopenia and neutropenia lasting longer after chemotherapy. We also aimed to provide individualized prophylactically leukocyte elevation therapy for breast cancer patients. Methods This single-center retrospective cohort study evaluated 515 ESBC patients who received rhG-CSF or PEG-G-CSF for prophylaxis after adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Blood test reports were analyzed during chemotherapy, and on a 12-month follow-up period after finishing the chemotherapy. The WBC counts and ANCs were measured to assess their variation tendency characteristics and to identify independent factors that influenced the occurrence of leukopenia and neutropenia lasting longer than 12 months after chemotherapy. Results Prophylaxis with rhG-CSF or PEG-rhG-CSF kept the mean values of WBC counts and ANCs within the normal range during chemotherapy, but a significant difference in WBC levels was detected before the end of the last chemotherapy compared to the prechemotherapy period (baseline) (p < 0.001). During the 12-month follow-up after the end of the last chemotherapy, WBC counts and ANCs gradually recovered, but the group that used only PEG-rhG-CSF (long-acting group, p WBC = 0.012) or rhG-CSF (short-acting group, p WBC = 0.0005) had better leukocyte elevation effects than the mixed treatment group (PEG-rhG-CSF mixed rhG-CSF). Besides, the short-acting group had a better neutrophil elevation effect than the longer-acting (p ANC = 0.019) and mixed (p ANC = 0.002) groups. Leukopenia was still present in 92 (17.9%) patients and neutropenia in 63 (12.2%) 12 months after the end of the last chemotherapy. The duration of leukopenia over 12 months was closely associated with the baseline WBC level (p < 0.001), G-CSF types (p = 0.027), and surgical method (p = 0.041). Moreover, the duration of neutropenia over 12 months was closely related to the baseline ANC (p < 0.001), G-CSF types (p = 0.043), and molecular typing (p = 0.025). Conclusion The prophylactic application of G-CSF effectively stabilized the WBC counts and ANCs during chemotherapy in ESBC patients. Nevertheless, the recovery of WBC counts and ANCs after chemotherapy varied between different G-CSF treatment groups. The risk of leukopenia and neutropenia persisting for more than 12 months after chemotherapy was associated with G-CSF types, the baseline level of WBC count/ANCs, surgical method, and molecular typing.

Endothelial PERK-ATF4-JAG1 axis activated by T-ALL remodels bone marrow vascular niche. Theranostics 2022; 12:2894-2907.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum unfolded protein response (UPR) is a conserved adaptive signaling in ER homeostasis and has emerged as critical in highly proliferating cells and potential treatment target for acute T-cell lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL). Methods: in this study, we assessed the transcriptomic and phenotypic alterations in UPR response of the bone marrow endothelial cells (ECs) in mice engrafted with T-ALL and in bone marrow specimens from patients who have T-ALL. We used PERK inhibitor and generated endothelial specific PERK knockout mice to study the impact of PERK on leukemia progression and hematopoiesis. We performed chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) to study the mechanistic regulation of JAG1 by ATF4. We characterized small extracellular vesicles (SEV) from leukemia-developing mice and studied the effect of SEVs on EC function. Results: we found that T-ALL development induced a robust activation of protein kinase RNA-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK)-dominant UPR in the bone marrow endothelial vascular niche. The activation of PERK-eIF2a-ATF4 axis remodels the vascular niche, upregulates angiogenic factors including VEGFα and ATF4-regulated JAG1, and suppresses the expression of SCF and CXCL12, which are important to HSC maintenance and regeneration. Further, targeting endothelial PERK significantly improved T-ALL outcome. EC-specific deletion of PERK abolished the aberrant JAG1 up-regulation, improved HSC maintenance, promoted leukemia apoptosis, and improved overall survival. Finally, we showed that small extracellular vesicles are critical mediators of endothelial PERK-eIF2a-ATF4 activation and JAG1 up-regulation in leukemia. Corroborating animal model studies, activation of PERK-ATF4-JAG1 is prominent in human T-ALL bone marrow and T-ALL xenografts. Conclusion: our studies thus revealed for the first time that the leukemia-initiated PERK-ATF4-JAG1 axis plays a critical role in the remodeling of the bone marrow vascular niche and that targeting vascular niche UPR is a potential therapeutic opportunity in T-ALL.

CEACAM-1 Induced CSF3-receptor Downregulation in Bone Marrow Associated With Refractory Neutropenia in Advanced Cirrhosis. J Clin Transl Hepatol 2022; 10:53-62. [PMID: 35233373 PMCID: PMC8845158 DOI: 10.14218/jcth.2021.00331] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2021] [Revised: 10/07/2021] [Accepted: 10/20/2021] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Cirrhosis patients exhibit cytopenia, and, at times refractory neutropenia to granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), which acts through the CSF3-receptor (CSF3R), and changes in CSF3R can affect the response. We conducted this study to assess the CSF3R status and its relevance in cirrhotic patients. METHODS Cirrhotic patients (n=127) and controls (n=26) with clinically indicated bone marrow (BM) examination were studied. BM assessment was done by qRT-PCR and immunohistochemistry (IHC) for CSF3R. Circulating G-CSF, CSF3R, and carcinoembryonic antigen cell adhesion molecule-1 (CEACAM1) were measured. BM hematopoietic precursor cells and their alterations were examined by flow cytometry. The findings were validated in liver cirrhosis patients who received G-CSF for severe neutropenia. RESULTS The mean age was 48.6±13.4 years, and 80.3% were men. Circulatory CSF3R reduction was noted with the advancement of cirrhosis, and confirmed by qRT-PCR and IHC in BM. CSF3R decline was related to decreased hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and downregulation of CSF3R in the remaining HSCs. Cocultures confirmed that CEACAM1 led to CSF3R downregulation in BM cells by possible lysosomal degradation. Baseline low peripheral blood-(PB)-CSF3R also predisposed development of infections on follow-up. Decreased CSF3R was also associated with nonresponse to exogenous G-CSF treatment of neutropenia. CONCLUSIONS Advanced liver cirrhosis was associated with low CSF3R and high CEACAM1 levels in the BM and circulation, making patients prone to infection and inadequate response to exogenous G-CSF.

Role of Autonomous Neuropathy in Diabetic Bone Regeneration. Cells 2022; 11:cells11040612.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus has multiple negative effects on regenerative processes, especially on wound and fracture healing. Despite the well-known negative effects of diabetes on the autonomous nervous system, only little is known about the role in bone regeneration within this context. Subsequently, we investigated diabetic bone regeneration in db−/db− mice with a special emphasis on the sympathetic nervous system of the bone in a monocortical tibia defect model. Moreover, the effect of pharmacological sympathectomy via administration of 6-OHDA was evaluated in C57Bl6 wildtype mice. Diabetic animals as well as wildtype mice received a treatment of BRL37344, a β3-adrenergic agonist. Bones of animals were examined via µCT, aniline-blue and Masson–Goldner staining for new bone formation, TRAP staining for bone turnover and immunoflourescence staining against tyrosinhydroxylase and stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF-1). Sympathectomized wildtype mice showed a significantly decreased bone regeneration, just comparable to db−/db− mice. New bone formation of BRL37344 treated db−/db− and sympathectomized wildtype mice was markedly improved in histology and µCT. Immunoflourescence stainings revealed significantly increased SDF-1 due to BRL37344 treatment in diabetic animals and sympathectomized wildtypes. This study depicts the important role of the sympathetic nervous system for bone regenerative processes using the clinical example of diabetes mellitus type 2. In order to improve and gain further insights into diabetic fracture healing, β3-agonist BRL37344 proved to be a potent treatment option, restoring impaired diabetic bone regeneration.

Abstract
Host microbiota crosstalk is essential for the production and functional modulation of blood-cell lineages. Whether, and if so how, the microbiota influences hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) is unclear. Here, we show that the microbiota regulates HSC self-renewal and differentiation under stress conditions by modulating local iron availability in the bone marrow (BM). In microbiota-depleted mice, HSC self-renewal was enhanced during regeneration, while the commitment toward differentiation was dramatically compromised. Mechanistically, microbiota depletion selectively impaired the recycling of red blood cells (RBCs) by BM macrophages, resulting in reduced local iron levels without affecting systemic iron homeostasis. Limiting iron availability in food (in vivo) or in culture (ex vivo), or by CD169+ macrophage depletion, enhanced HSC self-renewal and expansion. These results reveal an intricate interplay between the microbiota, macrophages, and iron, and their essential roles in regulating critical HSC fate decisions under stress.

Abstract
Stem cells have the ability of self-replication and multidirectional differentiation, but the mechanism of how stem cells “maintain” this ability and how to “decide” to give up this state and differentiate into cells with specific functions is still unknown. The Nobel Prize in physiology and medicine in 2021 was awarded to “temperature and tactile receptor,” which made the pain receptor TRPV1-calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) pathway active again. The activation and blocking technology of CGRP has been applied to many clinical diseases. CGRP gene has complex structure and transcription process, with multiple methylation and other modification sites. It has been considered as a research hotspot and difficulty since its discovery. Drug manipulation of TRPV1 and inhibition of CGRP might improve metabolism and prolong longevity. However, whether the TRPV1-neuropeptide-CGRP pathway is directly or indirectly involved in stem cell self-replication and multidirectional differentiation is unclear. Recent studies have found that CGRP is closely related to the migration and differentiation of tumor stem cells, which may be realized by turning off or turning on the CGRP gene expression in stem cells and activating a variety of ways to regulate stem cell niches. In this study, we reviewed the advances in researches concentrated on the biological effects of CGRP as a new endogenous switching of cell stemness.

The Hematology of Tomorrow Is Here-Preclinical Models Are Not: Cell Therapy for Hematological Malignancies. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14030580. [PMID: 35158848 PMCID: PMC8833715 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14030580] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2021] [Revised: 01/13/2022] [Accepted: 01/21/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Cell therapy is revolutionizing the prospect of deadly hematological malignancies such as high-risk acute myeloid leukemia. Stem cell therapy of allogeneic source from compatible human leukocyte antigen donor has exceptional success promoting durable remissions, but the rate of relapse is currently still high and there is transplant-related mortality. This review presents the current knowledge on the clinical use of mesenchymal stromal cells to improve outcomes in hematopoietic stem cell transplants. As an alternative or adjuvant approach to prevent relapse, we summarize the status of the promising forms of cellular immunotherapy aimed at targeting not only the bulk but also the cells of origin of leukemia. Finally, we discuss the available in vivo models for disease modelling and treatment efficacy prediction in these contexts. Abstract The purpose of this review is to present the current knowledge on the clinical use of several forms of cell therapy in hematological malignancies and the preclinical models available for their study. In the context of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplants, mesenchymal stromal cells are pursued to help stem cell engraftment and expansion, and control graft versus host disease. We further summarize the status of promising forms of cellular immunotherapy including CAR T cell and CAR NK cell therapy aimed at eradicating the cells of origin of leukemia, i.e., leukemia stem cells. Updates on other forms of cellular immunotherapy, such as NK cells, CIK cells and CAR CIK cells, show encouraging results in AML. The considerations in available in vivo models for disease modelling and treatment efficacy prediction are discussed, with a particular focus on their strengths and weaknesses for the study of healthy and diseased hematopoietic stem cell reconstitution, graft versus host disease and immunotherapy. Despite current limitations, cell therapy is a rapidly evolving field that holds the promise of improved cure rates, soon. As a result, we may be witnessing the birth of the hematology of tomorrow. To further support its development, improved preclinical models including humanized microenvironments in mice are urgently needed.

Abstract
Under physiological conditions, hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) in the bone marrow niches are responsible for the highly regulated and interconnected hematopoiesis process. At the same time, they must recognize potential threats and respond promptly to protect the host. A wide spectrum of microbial agents/products and the consequences of infection-induced mediators (e.g. cytokines, chemokines, and growth factors) can have prominent impact on HSPCs. While COVID-19 starts as a respiratory tract infection, it is considered a systemic disease which profoundly alters the hematopoietic system. Lymphopenia, neutrophilia, thrombocytopenia, and stress erythropoiesis are the hallmark of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Moreover, thrombocytopenia and blood hypercoagulability are common among COVID-19 patients with severe disease. Notably, the invasion of erythroid precursors and progenitors by SARS-CoV-2 is a cardinal feature of COVID-19 disease which may in part explain the mechanism underlying hypoxia. These pieces of evidence support the notion of skewed steady-state hematopoiesis to stress hematopoiesis following SARS-CoV-2 infection. The functional consequences of these alterations depend on the magnitude of the effect, which launches a unique hematopoietic response that is associated with increased myeloid at the expense of decreased lymphoid cells. This article reviews some of the key pathways including the infectious and inflammatory processes that control hematopoiesis, followed by a comprehensive review that summarizes the latest evidence and discusses how SARS-CoV-2 infection impacts hematopoiesis.

Abstract
End-stage liver disease is characterized by massive hepatocyte death resulting in clinical decompensation and organ failures. Clinical consequences in cirrhosis are the results of the loss of functional hepatocytes and excessive scarring. The only curative therapy in advanced cirrhosis is orthotropic liver transplantation, but the clinical demand outweighs the availability of acceptable donor organs. Moreover, this also necessitates lifelong immunosuppression and carries associated risks. The liver has a huge capability for regeneration. Self-replication of quiescent differentiated hepatocytes and cholangiocytes occurs in patients with acute liver injury. Due to limited hepatocyte self-renewal capacity in advanced cirrhosis, great interest has therefore been shown in characterizing the possible role of hepatic progenitor cells and bone marrow-derived stem cells to therapeutically aid this process. Transplantation of cells from various sources that can be properly differentiated into functional liver cells or use of growth factors for ex-vivo expansion of progenitor cells is needed at utmost priority. Multiple researches over the last two decades have aided researchers in refining proliferation, differentiation, and storage techniques and understand the functionality of these cells for use in clinical practice. However, these cell-based therapies are still experimental and have to be used in trial settings.

Abstract
The bone marrow (BM) is a complex organ that sustains hematopoiesis via mechanisms involving the microenvironment. The microenvironment includes several cell types, neurotransmitters from innervated fibers, growth factors, extracellular matrix proteins, and extracellular vesicles. The main function of the BM is to regulate hematopoietic function to sustain the production of blood and immune cells. However, the BM microenvironment can also accommodate the survival of malignant cells. A major mechanism by which the cancer cells communicate with cells of the BM microenvironment is through the exchange of exosomes, a subset of extracellular vesicles that deliver molecular signals bidirectionally between malignant and healthy cells. The field of exosomes is an active area of investigation since an understanding of how the exosomal packaging, cargo, and production can be leveraged therapeutically to deter cancer progression and sensitize malignant cells to other therapies. Altogether, this chapter discusses the crucial role of exosomes in the development and progression of BM-associated cancers, such as hematologic malignancies and marrow-metastatic breast cancer. Exosome-based therapeutic strategies and their limitations are also considered.
