Abstract
ABSTRACT Hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPC) have both unique and common responses following hemorrhage, injury, and sepsis. HSPCs from different lineages have a distinctive response to these "stress" signals. Inflammation, via the production of inflammatory factors, including cytokines, hormones, and interferons, has been demonstrated to impact the differentiation and function of HSPCs. In response to injury, hemorrhagic shock, and sepsis, cellular phenotypic changes and altered function occur, demonstrating the rapid response and potential adaptability of bone marrow hematopoietic cells. In this review, we summarize the pathophysiology of emergency myelopoiesis and the role of myeloid-derived suppressor cells, impaired erythropoiesis, as well as the mobilization of HSPCs from the bone marrow. Finally, we discuss potential therapeutic options to optimize HSPC function after severe trauma or infection.

Abstract
Burn patients experience erythropoietin resistant anemia in which early commitment and late maturation of erythroblasts are defective. The authors previously showed that propranolol (Prop) treatment restores erythroid committed progenitors, but terminal maturation remains impaired. Hemoglobinization and maturation occur during terminal erythropoiesis and these processes are aided by an erythroblast intrinsic functional protein called alpha-hemoglobin stabilizing protein (AHSP). The authors evaluated the role of AHSP in PBMC- (peripheral blood mono nuclear cell) derived erythroblasts and the implications of Prop in burn patients. Blood samples were collected at three time points from 17 patients receiving standard burn care (SBC) or Prop. Five healthy volunteers provided control plasma (CP). PBMCs were placed in biphasic cultures with 5% autologous plasma (BP) or CP. Erythroblasts were harvested during mid and late maturation stages; the percentage of AHSP+ erythroblasts, AHSP expression, and relative distribution of reticulocytes and polychromatophilic erythroblasts (PolyE) were determined by cytometry. During the second time point (7-10 days postburn), Prop cohort required 35% less transfusions. At mid maturation, PBMCs from Prop-treated patients cultured in BP had 33% more AHSP+ erythroblasts and 40% more AHSP expression compared with SBC. Furthermore, at late maturation, Prop had 50% more reticulocytes and 30% less PolyEs in CP vs BP compared with SBC (11% and 6%, respectively). AHSP is positively associated with late-stage maturation of PBMC-derived erythroblasts in the presence of CP. Albeit transiently, this is more pronounced in Prop than SBC. Early administration of propranolol in burn patients supports erythropoiesis via the chaperone AHSP.

Stage Specific Expression Pattern of Alpha-Hemoglobin-Stabilizing-Protein (AHSP) Portrayed in Erythroblast Chronology. Methods Protoc 2020; 3:mps3030046.

Abstract
During erythropoiesis, the molecular chaperone alpha-hemoglobin-stabilizing protein (AHSP) sequesters free alpha-hemoglobin (αHb) and prevents precipitation of excess αHb. While AHSP is linked to hereditary anemia, the pattern of expression during specific erythroblast stages is poorly understood. We investigated gene and protein expressions of AHSP throughout progressive maturation stages of erythroblasts in biphasic cultures of blood and bone marrow samples from healthy donors. Differentiating erythroblasts were periodically subjected to flow cytometry, Amnis imaging and RT-qPCR analyses. We made parallel in vivo validations from naive murine bone marrow cells. Percentages of AHSP+ erythroblasts, protein expressions and AHSP gene expressions are negligible on culture day 6 (CFU-Es) and progressively increases from culture days 8-12 (peaks on day 12) and declines on day 14. Notably, sub-cellular location of AHSP is both in the cytoplasm and nucleus in the early erythroblasts while in the late stages of maturation AHSP is found predominantly in the nucleus, being expelled with it during enucleation. As both human bone marrow and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) derived erythroblasts demonstrated similar expression patterns, sampling of erythroblasts from day 11 cultures could portray erythroblast chronology and provide optimum representative stage specific expression patterns. PBMCs may be suitable for comparison studies of AHSP expression in pathologic erythropoiesi.

Abstract
Infection is a common and severe complication of burn injury: Sepsis accounts for 47% of postburn mortality. Burn-induced T cell suppression likely contributes to the increased infection susceptibility in burn patients. However, little is known about the kinetics of T cell dysfunction after burn and its underlying mechanisms. In this study, we show in a murine scald injury model that T cell activation of both CD4+ and CD8+ T cells as well as T cell cytokine production is suppressed acutely and persistently for at least 11 days after burn injury. Purified T cells from scald-injured mice exhibit normal T cell functions, indicating an extrinsically mediated defect. We further show that T cell dysfunction after burn appears to be cell-to-cell contact dependent and can be ameliorated by depletion of myeloid-derived suppressor cells. These cells expand after burn injury, particularly a subset expressing the checkpoint inhibitor CD172a, and infiltrate germinal centers. Expression of CD172a appears to be driven by ingestion of immature reticulocytes. Immature reticulocytes are drastically increased in the spleen of scald mice and may contribute to immunosuppression through more direct mechanisms as well. Overall, our study newly identifies two cell populations, myeloid-derived suppressor cells and immature reticulocytes, as well as the CD47/CD172a-signaling pathways as mediators of T cell suppressors after burn and thus opens up new research opportunities in the search for new therapies to combat increased infection susceptibility and the associated morbidity and mortality in burn victims.

Abstract
Burn injury has been shown to significantly dampen erythropoiesis in both burn patients and in murine models. Our previous findings elucidated the erythropoietin independent defects in red cell development stages involving erythroid progenitor production and late stage erythroblast enucleation processes. We hypothesized that macrophages (MØ) in erythroblast islands (EBI) could be yet another roadblock impeding erythropoiesis following burn injury. Here we highlight that the methodology to study EBI can be achieved with single cell suspensions using a simple technique such as flow cytometry, as obtaining the central erythroblast island macrophages (EBIMØs) of interest is a delicate process. We elucidated the requisite of EBIMØ from the erythroblast as well as the MØ perspective. In addition to the primary erythropoiesis organ, the bone marrow (BM), spleens were also examined for extra-medullary erythropoiesis. Femurs and spleens were harvested from adult mice (B6D2F1) subjected to 15% total body surface area (TBSA) scald burn (B) or sham burn (S). Total bone marrow cells (TBM) and splenocytes were probed for total erythrons, early and late erythroblasts and EBIMØ by flow cytometry. There was only a marginal increase in the number of EBIMØ after burn, but, between the signatures of EBIMØ, Siglec-1 expression (MFI) was reduced by 40% in B with and a parallel 44% decrease in TBM erythrons in the BM. There were more (2.5-fold) EEBs and less LEBs (2.4-fold) per million TBM cells in B; with a corresponding decrease in Siglec-1 and Ly6G expressions in EBIMØ associated with EEB. Conversely, extra-medullary erythropoiesis was robust in spleens from B. Not only were the numbers of EBIMØs increased in B (p < 0.002), both EEBs and LEBs associated with EBIMØ were higher by 30 and 75%, respectively. Importantly, an increase in Siglec-1 and Vcam1 expressing F480+ splenic macrophages was observed after burn injury. Therefore, stagnant EEBs in the BM after burn injury could be due to low Siglec1 expressing EBIMØ, which perhaps impede their maturation into LEBs and reticulocytes. Repercussion of myeloid cell phenotype specific to BM after burn injury could plausibly account for a defective late stage RBC maturation resulting in anemia of critical illness. Summary Sentence: Characterization of erythroblast island macrophages (EBIMØ) in the bone marrow and spleen at different stages of erythropoiesis after burn injury.

Abstract
RATIONALE The pathophysiology of persistent injury-associated anemia is incompletely understood, and human data are sparse. OBJECTIVES To characterize persistent injury-associated anemia among critically ill trauma patients with the hypothesis that severe trauma would be associated with neuroendocrine activation, erythropoietin dysfunction, iron dysregulation, and decreased erythropoiesis. METHODS A translational prospective observational cohort study comparing severely injured, blunt trauma patients who had operative fixation of a hip or femur fracture (n = 17) with elective hip repair patients (n = 22). Bone marrow and plasma obtained at the index operation were assessed for circulating catecholamines, systemic inflammation, erythropoietin, iron trafficking pathways, and erythroid progenitor growth. Bone marrow was also obtained from healthy donors from a commercial source (n = 8). MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS During admission, trauma patients had a median of 625 ml operative blood loss and 5 units of red blood cell transfusions, and Hb decreased from 10.5 to 9.3 g/dl. Compared with hip repair, trauma patients had higher median plasma norepinephrine (21.9 vs. 8.9 ng/ml) and hepcidin (56.3 vs. 12.2 ng/ml) concentrations (both P < 0.05). Bone marrow erythropoietin and erythropoietin receptor expression were significantly increased among patients undergoing hip repair (23% and 14% increases, respectively; both P < 0.05), but not in trauma patients (3% and 5% increases, respectively), compared with healthy control subjects. Trauma patients had lower bone marrow transferrin receptor expression than did hip repair patients (57% decrease; P < 0.05). Erythroid progenitor growth was decreased in trauma patients (39.0 colonies per plate; P < 0.05) compared with those with hip repair (57.0 colonies per plate; P < 0.05 compared with healthy control subjects) and healthy control subjects (66.5 colonies per plate). CONCLUSIONS Severe blunt trauma was associated with neuroendocrine activation, erythropoietin dysfunction, iron dysregulation, erythroid progenitor growth suppression, and persistent injury-associated anemia. Clinical trial registered with www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT 02577731).

Dysregulated myelopoiesis and hematopoietic function following acute physiologic insult. Curr Opin Hematol 2018; 25:37-43.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The purpose of this review is to describe recent findings in the context of previous work regarding dysregulated myelopoiesis and hematopoietic function following an acute physiologic insult, focusing on the expansion and persistence of myeloid-deriver suppressor cells, the deterioration of lymphocyte number and function, and the inadequacy of stress erythropoiesis. RECENT FINDINGS Persistent myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) expansion among critically ill septic patients is associated with T-cell suppression, vulnerability to nosocomial infection, chronic critical illness, and poor long-term functional status. Multiple approaches targeting MDSC expansion and suppressor cell activity may serve as a primary or adjunctive therapeutic intervention. Traumatic injury and the neuroendocrine stress response suppress bone marrow erythropoietin receptor expression in a process that may be reversed by nonselective beta-adrenergic receptor blockade. Hepcidin-mediated iron-restricted anemia of critical illness requires further investigation of novel approaches involving erythropoiesis-stimulating agents, iron administration, and hepcidin modulation. SUMMARY Emergency myelopoiesis is a dynamic process with unique phenotypes for different physiologic insults and host factors. Following an acute physiologic insult, critically ill patients are subject to persistent MDSC expansion, deterioration of lymphocyte number and function, and inadequate stress erythropoiesis. Better strategies are required to identify patients who are most likely to benefit from targeted therapies.
