Regulatory Crosstalk between Physiological Low O 2 Concentration and Notch Pathway in Early Erythropoiesis. Biomolecules 2022; 12:biom12040540. [PMID: 35454129 PMCID: PMC9028139 DOI: 10.3390/biom12040540] [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: 02/15/2022] [Revised: 03/25/2022] [Accepted: 03/30/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Physiological low oxygen (O2) concentration (<5%) favors erythroid development ex vivo. It is known that low O2 concentration, via the stabilization of hypoxia-induced transcription factors (HIFs), intervenes with Notch signaling in the control of cell fate. In addition, Notch activation is implicated in the regulation of erythroid differentiation. We test here if the favorable effects of a physiological O2 concentration (3%) on the amplification of erythroid progenitors implies a cooperation between HIFs and the Notch pathway. To this end, we utilized a model of early erythropoiesis ex vivo generated from cord blood CD34+ cells transduced with shHIF1α and shHIF2α at 3% O2 and 20% O2 in the presence or absence of the Notch pathway inhibitor. We observed that Notch signalization was activated by Notch2R−Jagged1 ligand interaction among progenitors. The inhibition of the Notch pathway provoked a modest reduction in erythroid cell expansion and promoted erythroid differentiation. ShHIF1α and particularly shHIF2α strongly impaired erythroid progenitors’ amplification and differentiation. Additionally, HIF/NOTCH signaling intersects at the level of multipotent progenitor erythroid commitment and amplification of BFU-E. In that, both HIFs contribute to the expression of Notch2R and Notch target gene HES1. Our study shows that HIF, particularly HIF2, has a determining role in the early erythroid development program, which includes Notch signaling.

IPSC‑MSC inhibition assessment in Raw 264.7 cells following oxygen and glucose deprivation reveals a distinct function for cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Mol Med Rep 2018; 17:8212-8220. [PMID: 29658608 PMCID: PMC5983996 DOI: 10.3892/mmr.2018.8864] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2017] [Accepted: 11/02/2017] [Indexed: 01/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Hypoxia is a serious stress state. The nervous system is less tolerant to hypoxia, and cell death due to hypoxia is irreversible. With the incidence of cardiovascular disease gradually increasing, the sudden cardiac death rate is additionally increasing. Although cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is an important development, recovery is frequently poor. In a successful recovery population, ~40% of the population was in a vegetative state or subsequently succumbed to their condition, and ~20% had brain damage. Therefore, the recovery of the brain is of particular importance in CPR. Immune disorders are one of the major mechanisms of cerebral resuscitation following CPR. Studies have demonstrated that induced pluripotent stem cell-derived mesenchymal stem cells (IPSC-MSCs) have a strong immune regulatory effect during tissue repair and anti-inflammatory effects. IPSC-MSCs may inhibit the inflammatory response by means of the inflammatory reaction network to improve brain function following CPR, although the cellular and molecular mechanisms remain unclear. Macrophages are a bridge between innate immune and specific immune responses in the body; therefore, it was hypothesized that macrophages may be the important effector cell of the role of IPSC-MSCs in improving brain function following recovery of spontaneous respiration and circulation subsequent to cardiopulmonary resuscitation. In the present study, IPSC-MSCs were applied to the oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD) model. It was observed that intervention with IPSC-MSCs was able to alter the polarization direction of macrophages. The difference in the proportions of M1 and M2 macrophages was statistically significant at 6, 12, 24 and 48 h (P=0.037, P<0.05) in the OGD + IPSC-MSCs group (M1, 33.48±5.6%; M2, 50.84±6.9%) and in the OGD group (M1, 83.55±7.3%; M2, 11.41±3.2%), and over time this trend was more obvious. The polarization direction of macrophages is associated with the neurogenic locus notch homolog protein 1 (Notch-1) signaling pathway. In conclusion, it was observed that IPSC-MSCs may be associated with altered macrophage polarization, which may be accomplished by inhibiting the Notch-1 signaling pathway.

Stem Cell Res 2013; 11:1273-87. [PMID: 24064354 DOI: 10.1016/j.scr.2013.08.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2013] [Revised: 08/08/2013] [Accepted: 08/26/2013] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Notch signalling has been implicated during haematopoietic development in vivo and in the differentiation of haematopoietic cells from pluripotent cells in vitro. However interpretation of data from many of these studies has been complicated by the heterogeneous nature of cell populations under study and by the fact that the Notch pathway is active during embryogenesis prior to the development of the haematopoietic system. To define the role of Notch signalling in more precise cell populations during the early stages of haematopoietic development within the aorta-gonad-mesonephros (AGM) microenvironment we co-cultured differentiating ESCs on a stromal cell line derived from this region of the embryo. Our co-culture system had no effect on the production of FLK1(+) mesoderm progenitor cells but promoted their subsequent haematopoietic differentiation. We assessed the role of Notch signalling on haematopoietic differentiation of isolated FLK1(+) cells. Notch activity is dynamic and drops to basal levels as FLK1(+) cells commit to a haematopoietic fate. Further reduction of Notch activity by the inducible expression of dominant negative MAML had no functional consequences. In contrast, induction of Notch activity using an inducible NotchIC expression system had an inhibitory effect on haematopoietic differentiation. We used a Cre-mediated recombination strategy whereby NotchIC-expressing cells were marked with the hCD2 receptor and observed a reduction in the number of multi-lineage and myeloid colonies derived from NotchIC(+) compared to NotchIC(-) FLK1(+) cells isolated from the same culture. We believe that our culture system represents a good model for haematopoietic development within the AGM microenvironment and our data suggest that haematopoietic commitment of FLK1(+) cells in this setting occurs when Notch activity is below a specific threshold.

Abstract
Stem cell factor (SCF), the ligand for the c-kit receptor, is essential for the production of red blood cells during development and stress erythropoiesis. SCF promotes erythroblast proliferation and survival, while delaying erythroid differentiation through mechanisms that are largely unknown. In cultures of primary human differentiating erythroblasts, we found that SCF induces an increase in the expression of Notch2, a member of the Notch family implicated in the control of cell growth and differentiation. Functional inhibition of either Notch or its ligand Jagged1 inhibited the effects of SCF on erythroid cell expansion. SCF also induced the expression of Hes-1 and GATA-2, which may contribute to transduce Notch2 signals in response to SCF. Transduction of primary erythroid precursors with a dominant-negative Notch2 mutant inhibited both basal and SCF-mediated erythroblast expansion, and counteracted the effects of SCF on erythroblast differentiation. These findings provide a clue to understand the effects of increased proliferation and delayed differentiation elicited by SCF on the erythroid compartment and indicate Notch2 as a new player in the regulation of red cell differentiation.

Abstract
The Notch pathway regulates the renewal and fate decisions of stem cells in multiple tissues. Notch1, -2, as well as the Notch target gene Hes1 are expressed in the putative stem cells in the continuously growing mouse incisors, but so far there has not been any evidence for a function of the Notch pathway in the regulation of the incisor stem cells. We have analysed the effects of the Notch pathway inhibitor DAPT on the maintenance, proliferation, and differentiation of the epithelial stem cells in explant cultures of the mouse incisor. The proximal part of the incisor containing the cervical loop stem cell niche was dissected from newborn mice and cultured for 2-6 days in vitro. DAPT inhibited the expression of Notch target gene Hes1 in the cervical loop indicating that Notch signalling was inhibited in the putative stem cells. The most striking effect of DAPT was a significant reduction in the size of the cervical loop. DAPT caused a marked but partially reversible decrease in cell proliferation, as well as massive apoptosis in the epithelial stem cell niche. Interestingly, restricted apoptosis was detected within the Notch expressing putative stem cells also in the control cultures as well as in incisors in vivo, suggesting that apoptosis may be a mechanism regulating the size of the epithelial stem cell pool in the incisor. The differentiation of the epithelial cells into enamel-forming ameloblasts was not affected by DAPT but the number of preameloblasts was progressively decreased during culture period reflecting the depletion of stem and progenitor cells. Our results indicate that Notch signalling is required for epithelial stem cell survival and enamel formation in the continuously growing mouse incisor.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cells give rise to multiple lineages of cells. This process is governed by a tightly controlled signaling network regulated by cytokines and a direct cell-cell contact. Notch signaling represents one of the major pathways activated during direct interaction between hematopoietic progenitor cells and bone marrow stroma. A critical role of Notch signaling in differentiation of T- and B-lymphocytes has now been established. Until recently, the role of Notch signaling in the development of myeloid cells and particular dendritic cells remained unclear. In this review, we discuss recent exciting findings that shed light on the critical role of Notch in differentiation and the function of dendritic cells and its impact on immune responses.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Notch signalling is known to promote hematopoietic stem cell self-renewal and to influence the lineage commitment decisions of progenitor cells. The purpose of this study was to investigate the mechanism of Notch-induced apoptosis in the erythroleukaemic cell line TF-1, and in primary cord blood CD34+ cells. METHODS Retroviral constructs containing constitutively active forms of Notch as well as components of the Notch signalling pathway were used to transduce cells and their effect on cell cycle kinetics and apoptosis assayed by immunostaining for the S-phase marker Ki67 and Annexin V. RESULTS We found that TF-1 cells undergo cell cycle arrest followed by apoptosis in a cytokine-independent manner in response to active Notch. Transduction of TF-1 cells with known targets of Notch signalling, Deltex1, HES1 and HERP2, showed that Notch-induced cell cycle arrest was not mediated by these proteins. However, analysis of cell cycle gene expression revealed that Notch signalling was associated with an up-regulation of IFI16 expression in TF-1 cells and in primary cord blood CD34+ cells. CONCLUSION These data demonstrate that, in the context of TF-1 cells, Notch signalling can induce cell cycle arrest and apoptosis.

Mind bomb-1 is essential for intraembryonic hematopoiesis in the aortic endothelium and the subaortic patches. Mol Cell Biol 2008; 28:4794-804.

Abstract
Intraembryonic hematopoiesis occurs at two different sites, the floor of the aorta and subaortic patches (SAPs) of the para-aortic splanchnopleura (P-Sp)/aorta-gonad-mesonephros (AGM) region. Notch1 and RBP-jkappa are critical for the specification of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in Notch signal-receiving cells. However, the mechanism by which Notch signaling is triggered from the Notch signal-sending cells to support embryonic hematopoiesis remains to be determined. We previously reported that Mind bomb-1 (Mib1) regulates Notch ligands in the Notch signal-sending cells (B. K. Koo, M. J. Yoon, K. J. Yoon, S. K. Im, Y. Y. Kim, C. H. Kim, P. G. Suh, Y. N. Jan, and Y. Y. Kong, PLoS ONE 2:e1221, 2007). Here, we show that intraembryonic hematopoietic progenitors were absent in the P-Sp of Mib1(-/-) embryos, whereas they were partly preserved in the Tie2-cre; Mib1(f)(/f) P-Sps, suggesting that Mib1 plays a role in the endothelium and the SAPs. Interestingly, dll1 and dll4/Jag1 are expressed in the SAPs and the endothelium of the AGM, respectively, where mib1 is detected. Indeed, Notch signaling was activated in the nascent HSCs at both sites. In the P-Sp explant culture, the overexpression of Dll1 in OP9 stromal cells rescued the failed production of hematopoietic progenitors in the Mib1(-/-) P-Sp, while its activity was abolished by Mib1 knockdown. These results suggest that Mib1 is important for intraembryonic hematopoiesis not only in the aortic endothelium but also in the SAPs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To search a novel function of erythroid progenitor cells circulating as the major nucleated cell population in umbilical cord blood (CB) cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS Human CB-derived CD36(+) erythroid progenitors were subjected to cDNA microarray. Gene expression and biological property of CB-erythroid progenitors and adult peripheral blood (PB)-erythroid progenitors were compared by using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and serum-free culture system with erythropoietin (EPO). RESULTS The microarray revealed 124-fold higher levels of insulin-like growth factor-II (IGF-II) gene expression in CB-CD36(+) erythroid progenitors than in stimulated lymphocytes of adult PB. Real-time PCR verified that IGF-II mRNA levels were highest in CB-CD36(+) erythroid progenitors compared to other CB- or adult PB-fractionated cells. When CB-CD36(+) erythroid progenitors were cultured with EPO in serum-free medium, anti-IGF-II-antibody (Ab) reduced the number of erythroid colonies. When CB- and adult PB-derived erythroid colony-forming cells (ECFCs) were cultured with interleukin-3, stem cell factor, and EPO, mRNA levels per cells of IGF-II peaked on day 12, but those of type 1 and type 2 receptors did not increase with ECFCs maturation. The maturation rate by IGF-II was higher in CB-ECFCs than in adult PB-ECFCs. The majority of CB-ECFCs expressed IGF-II protein. Anti-IGF-II-Ab, but not anti-IGF-I-Ab, reduced the number of CB-ECFCs in liquid culture with EPO. Anti-IGF-II-Ab accelerated apoptosis of ECFCs, assessed by dimethylthiazole tetrazolium bromide, bromodeoxyuridine, and flow cytometric analyses. ECFCs failed to attain full maturity in the presence of anti-IGF-II-Ab. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that IGF-II is produced by erythroid progenitors themselves, and has a crucial role in fetal erythropoiesis by modulating apoptosis and maturation in an autocrine fashion.

Abstract
Interleukin (IL)-6 plays pleiotropic roles in human hematopoiesis and immune responses by acting on not only the IL-6 receptor-alpha subunit (IL-6Ralpha)(+) but also IL-6Ralpha(-) hematopoietic progenitors via soluble IL-6R. The Notch ligand Delta-1 has been identified as an important modulator of the differentiation and proliferation of human hematopoietic progenitors. Here, it was investigated whether these actions of IL-6 are influenced by Delta-1. When CD34(+)CD38(-) hematopoietic progenitors were cultured with stem cell factor, flt3 ligand, thrombopoietin and IL-3, Delta-1, in combination with the IL-6R/IL-6 fusion protein FP6, increased the generation of glycophorin A(+) erythroid cells but counteracted the effects of IL-6 and FP6 on the generation of CD14(+) monocytic and CD15(+) granulocytic cells. Although freshly isolated CD34(+)CD38(-) cells expressed no or only low levels of IL-6Ralpha, its expression was increased in myeloid progenitors after culture but remained negative in erythroid progenitors. It was found that Delta-1 acted in synergy with FP6 to enhance the generation of erythroid cells from the IL-6Ralpha(-) erythroid progenitors. In contrast, Delta-1 antagonized the effects of IL-6 and FP6 on the development of monocytic and granulocytic cells, as well as CD14(-)CD1a(+) dendritic cells, from the IL-6Ralpha(+) myeloid progenitors. These results indicate that Delta-1 interacts differentially with gp130 activation in IL-6Ralpha(-) erythroid and IL-6Ralpha(+) myeloid progenitors. The present data suggest a divergent interaction between Delta-1 and gp130 activation in human hematopoiesis.
