Summary |
Endomucin (EMCN) currently represents the only hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) marker expressed by both murine and human HSCs. Here, we report that EMCN+ long-term repopulating HSCs (LT-HSCs; CD150+CD48−LSK) have a higher long-term multi-lineage repopulating capacity compared to EMCN− LT-HSCs. Cell cycle analyses and transcriptional profiling demonstrated that EMCN+ LT-HSCs were more quiescent compared to EMCN− LT-HSCs. Emcn−/− and Emcn+/+ mice displayed comparable steady-state hematopoiesis, as well as frequencies, transcriptional programs, and long-term multi-lineage repopulating capacity of their LT-HSCs. Complementary functional analyses further revealed increased cell cycle entry upon treatment with 5-fluorouracil and reduced granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (GCSF) mobilization of Emcn−/− LT-HSCs, demonstrating that EMCN expression by LT-HSCs associates with quiescence in response to hematopoietic stress and is indispensable for effective LT-HSC mobilization. Transplantation of wild-type bone marrow cells into Emcn−/− or Emcn+/+ recipients demonstrated that EMCN is essential for endothelial cell-dependent maintenance/self-renewal of the LT-HSC pool and sustained blood cell production post-transplant.

Overall design |
RNA was isolated from 3000-5000 FACS sorted EMCN+CD150+CD48-LSK (EMCN+ LT-HSCs) and EMCN-CD150+CD48-LSK (EMCN- LT-HSCs) for RNA sequencing. Granulocyte-Monocyte progenitors (GMPs) were additionally sorted as well characterised population to serve as more differentiated population for comparison. BM cells were isolated from C57Bl6 mice purchased at Taconic (Denmark). 4 biological replicates for each population, one EMCN-LT-HSC replicate was removed from analysis due to poor quality of the sequenced library.
