Regulation of PDE5 expression in human aorta and thoracic aortic aneurysms.
Aneurysms and dissections affecting thoracic aorta are associated with smooth muscle cell (SMC) dysfunction. NO/cGMP signaling pathway in smooth muscle cells has been shown to be affected in sporadic thoracic aortic aneurysms. We analyzed the mRNA levels of PDE5,a cGMP-hydrolyzing enzyme highly expressed in aortic SMCs,that regulates arterious vascular tone by lowering cGMP levels. We found that aortic tissue obtained from Marfan,tricuspid and bicuspid thoracic aneurysms expressed lower levels of PDE5 mRNA compared to control aortas. In particular,we found that affected aortas showed lower levels of all the PDE5A isoforms,compared to control aortas. Transfection of vascular SMCs (VSMCs) with NOTCH3 activated domain (NICD3) induced the expression of PDE5A1 and A3 protein isoforms,but not that of the corresponding mRNAs. VSMC stimulation with GSNO,a nitric oxide analogue or with 8-br-cGMP,but not with 8-br-cAMP,up-regulated PDE5 and NOTCH-3 protein levels,indicating a negative feedback loop to protect the arterial wall from excessive relaxation. Finally,we found that PDE5 is expressed early during human aorta development,suggesting that if loss of function mutations of PDE5 occur,they might potentially affect aortic wall development.

CD41+/CD45+ cells without acetylcholinesterase activity are immature and a major megakaryocytic population in murine bone marrow.
Murine megakaryocytes (MKs) are defined by CD41/CD61 expression and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity; however,their stages of differentiation in bone marrow (BM) have not been fully elucidated. In murine lineage-negative (Lin(-))/CD45(+) BM cells,we found CD41(+) MKs without AChE activity (AChE(-)) except for CD41(++) MKs with AChE activity (AChE(+)),in which CD61 expression was similar to their CD41 level. Lin(-)/CD41(+)/CD45(+)/AChE(-) MKs could differentiate into AChE(+),with an accompanying increase in CD41/CD61 during in vitro culture. Both proplatelet formation (PPF) and platelet (PLT) production for Lin(-)/CD41(+)/CD45(+)/AChE(-) MKs were observed later than for Lin(-)/CD41(++)/CD45(+)/AChE(+) MKs,whereas MK progenitors were scarcely detected in both subpopulations. GeneChip and semiquantitative polymerase chain reaction analyses revealed that the Lin(-)/CD41(+)/CD45(+)/AChE(-) MKs are assigned at the stage between the progenitor and PPF preparation phases in respect to the many MK/PLT-specific gene expressions,including beta1-tubulin. In normal mice,the number of Lin(-)/CD41(+)/CD45(+)/AChE(-) MKs was 100 times higher than that of AChE(+) MKs in BM. When MK destruction and consequent thrombocytopenia were caused by an antitumor agent,mitomycin-C,Lin(-)/CD41(+)/CD45(+)/AChE(-) MKs led to an increase in AChE(+) MKs and subsequent PLT recovery with interleukin-11 administration. It was concluded that MKs in murine BM at least in part consist of immature Lin(-)/CD41(+)/CD45(+)/AChE(-) MKs and more differentiated Lin(-)/CD41(++)/CD45(+)/AChE(+) MKs. Immature Lin(-)/CD41(+)/CD45(+)/AChE(-) MKs are a major MK population compared with AChE(+) MKs in BM and play an important role in rapid PLT recovery in vivo.

Mammalian target of rapamycin is required for thrombopoietin-induced proliferation of megakaryocyte progenitors.
Thrombopoietin (TPO) is a potent regulator of megakaryopoiesis and stimulates megakaryocyte (MK) progenitor expansion and MK differentiation. In this study,we show that TPO induces activation of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway,which plays a central role in translational regulation and is required for proliferation of MO7e cells and primary human MK progenitors. Treatment of MO7e cells,human CD34+,and primary MK cells with the mTOR inhibitor rapamycin inhibits TPO-induced cell cycling by reducing cells in S phase and blocking cells in G0/G1. Rapamycin markedly inhibits the clonogenic growth of MK progenitors with high proliferative capacity but does not reduce the formation of small MK colonies. Addition of rapamycin to MK suspension cultures reduces the number of MK cells,but inhibition of mTOR does not significantly affect expression of glycoproteins IIb/IIIa (CD41) and glycoprotein Ib (CD42),nuclear polyploidization levels,cell size,or cell survival. The downstream effectors of mTOR,p70 S6 kinase (S6K) and 4E-binding protein 1 (4E-BP1),are phosphorylated by TPO in a rapamycin- and LY294002-sensitive manner. Part of the effect of the phosphatidyl inositol 3-kinase pathway in regulating megakaryopoiesis may be mediated by the mTOR/S6K/4E-BP1 pathway. In conclusion,these data demonstrate that the mTOR pathway is activated by TPO and plays a critical role in regulating proliferation of MK progenitors,without affecting differentiation or cell survival.

BUBR1 deficiency results in abnormal megakaryopoiesis.
The physiologic function of BUBR1,a key component of the spindle checkpoint,was examined by generating BUBR1-mutant mice. BUBR1(-/-) embryos failed to survive beyond day 8.5 in utero as a result of extensive apoptosis. Whereas BUBR1(+/-) blastocysts grew relatively normally in vitro,BUBR1(-/-) blastocysts exhibited impaired proliferation and atrophied. Adult BUBR1(+/-) mice manifested splenomegaly and abnormal megakaryopoiesis. BUBR1 haploinsufficiency resulted in an increase in the number of splenic megakaryocytes,which was correlated with an increase in megakaryocytic,but a decrease in erythroid,progenitors in bone marrow cells. RNA interference-mediated down-regulation of BUBR1 also caused an increase in polyploidy formation in murine embryonic fibroblast cells and enhanced megakaryopoiesis in bone marrow progenitor cells. However,enhanced megakaryopoiesis in BUBR1(+/-) mice was not correlated with a significant increase in platelets in peripheral blood,which was at least partly due to a defect in the formation of proplatelet-producing megakaryocytes. Together,these results indicate that BUBR1 is essential for early embryonic development and normal hematopoiesis.

GATA-1 as a regulator of mast cell differentiation revealed by the phenotype of the GATA-1low mouse mutant.
Here it is shown that the phenotype of adult mice lacking the first enhancer (DNA hypersensitive site I) and the distal promoter of the GATA-1 gene (neo Delta HS or GATA-1(low) mutants) reveals defects in mast cell development. These include the presence of morphologically abnormal alcian blue(+) mast cells and apoptotic metachromatic(-) mast cell precursors in connective tissues and peritoneal lavage and numerous (60-70% of all the progenitors) unique" trilineage cells committed to erythroid�

Serum response factor is an essential transcription factor in megakaryocytic maturation.
Serum response factor (Srf) is a MADS-box transcription factor that is critical for muscle differentiation. Its function in hematopoiesis has not yet been revealed. Mkl1,a cofactor of Srf,is part of the t(1;22) translocation in acute megakaryoblastic leukemia,and plays a critical role in megakaryopoiesis. To test the role of Srf in megakaryocyte development,we crossed Pf4-Cre mice,which express Cre recombinase in cells committed to the megakaryocytic lineage,to Srf(F/F) mice in which functional Srf is no longer expressed after Cre-mediated excision. Pf4-Cre/Srf(F/F) knockout (KO) mice are born with normal Mendelian frequency,but have significant macrothrombocytopenia with approximately 50% reduction in platelet count. In contrast,the BM has increased number and percentage of CD41(+) megakaryocytes (WT: 0.41% ± 0.06%; KO: 1.92% ± 0.12%) with significantly reduced ploidy. KO mice show significantly increased megakaryocyte progenitors in the BM by FACS analysis and CFU-Mk. Megakaryocytes lacking Srf have abnormal stress fiber and demarcation membrane formation,and platelets lacking Srf have abnormal actin distribution. In vitro and in vivo assays reveal platelet function defects in KO mice. Critical actin cytoskeletal genes are down-regulated in KO megakaryocytes. Thus,Srf is required for normal megakaryocyte maturation and platelet production partly because of regulation of cytoskeletal genes.

Role for MKL1 in megakaryocytic maturation.
Megakaryoblastic leukemia 1 (MKL1),identified as part of the t(1;22) translocation specific to acute megakaryoblastic leukemia,is highly expressed in differentiated muscle cells and promotes muscle differentiation by activating serum response factor (SRF). Here we show that Mkl1 expression is up-regulated during murine megakaryocytic differentiation and that enforced overexpression of MKL1 enhances megakaryocytic differentiation. When the human erythroleukemia (HEL) cell line is induced to differentiate with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate,overexpression of MKL1 results in an increased number of megakaryocytes with a concurrent increase in ploidy. MKL1 overexpression also promotes megakaryocytic differentiation of primary human CD34(+) cells cultured in the presence of thrombopoietin. The effect of MKL1 is abrogated when SRF is knocked down,suggesting that MKL1 acts through SRF. Consistent with these findings in human cells,knockout of Mkl1 in mice leads to reduced platelet counts in peripheral blood,and reduced ploidy in bone marrow megakaryocytes. In conclusion,MKL1 promotes physiologic maturation of human and murine megakaryocytes.

Endogenous erythroid and megakaryocytic colony formation in serum-free, cytokine-free collagen gels.
We studied the suitability of collagen-based semisolid medium for assay of endogenous erythroid colony formation performed in myeloproliferative disorders. Bone marrow (BM) mononuclear cells (MNC) from 103 patients suspected of having polycythemia vera (PV,76 patients) or essential thrombocythemia (ET,27 patients) were grown in collagen-based,serum-free,cytokine-free semisolid medium. Colony analysis at day 8 or 10 showed that this collagen assay is specific,as endogenous growth of erythroid colonies was never observed in cultures of 16 healthy donors and 6 chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) patients. Endogenous erythroid colony formation was observed in 53.3% of patients suspected of PV,with only 15.4% of positive cultures for patients with 1 minor PV criterion and 72% (p = 0.009) of positive cultures for patients with textgreater or =2 minor or 1 major PV criterion. Similarly,endogenous growth of erythroid colonies was found in 44.4% of patients suspected of ET,with 31.6% of positive cultures for patients with 1 ET criterion versus 75% for patients with textgreater or =2 ET criteria. In addition,we found that in collagen gels,tests of erythropoietin (EPO) hypersensitivity in the presence of 0.01 or 0.05 U/ml of EPO and tests of endogenous colony-forming units-megakaryocyte (CFU-MK) formation cannot be used to detect PV or ET,as these tests were positive for,respectively,21.4% and 50% of healthy donors and 83% and 50% of CML patients. A retrospective analysis suggests that collagen assays are more sensitive than methylcellulose assays to assess endogenous growth of erythroid colonies. In summary,serum-free collagen-based colony assays are simple and reliable assays of endogenous growth of erythroid colonies in myeloproliferative diseases. They also appear to be more sensitive than methylcellulose-based assays.

Hematopoietic stem cell and progenitor defects in Sca-1/Ly-6A-null mice.
Despite its wide use as a marker for hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs),the function of stem cell antigen-1 (Sca-1) (also known as lymphocyte activation protein-6A [Ly-6A]) in hematopoiesis remains poorly defined. We have previously established that Sca-1(-/-) T cells develop normally,although they are hyperresponsive to antigen. Here,we report detailed analysis of hematopoiesis in Sca-1-deficient animals. The differentiation potential of Sca-1-null bone marrow was determined from examination of the most mature precursors (culture colony-forming units [CFU-Cs]) to less committed progenitors (spleen CFUs [CFU-Ss]) to long-term repopulating HSCs. Sca-1-null mice are mildly thrombocytopenic with a concomitant decrease in megakaryocytes and their precursors. Bone marrow cells derived from Sca-1(-/-) mice also have decreased multipotential granulocyte,erythroid,macrophage,and megakaryocyte CFU (GEMM-CFU) and CFU-S progenitor activity. Competitive repopulation assays demonstrated that Sca-1(-/-) HSCs are at a competitive disadvantage compared with wild-type HSCs. To further analyze the potential of Sca-1(-/-) HSCs,serial transplantations were performed. While secondary repopulations using wild-type bone marrow completely repopulated Sca-1(-/-) mice,Sca-1(-/-) bone marrow failed to rescue one third of lethally irradiated wild-type mice receiving secondary bone marrow transplants from irradiation-induced anemia and contributed poorly to the surviving transplant recipients. These data strongly suggest that Sca-1 is required for regulating HSC self-renewal and the development of committed progenitor cells,megakaryocytes,and platelets. Thus,our studies conclusively demonstrate that Sca-1,in addition to being a marker of HSCs,regulates the developmental program of HSCs and specific progenitor populations.

Targeted mutations of the juxtamembrane tyrosines in the Kit receptor tyrosine kinase selectively affect multiple cell lineages.
Loss-of-function mutations in the murine dominant white spotting/c-kit locus affect a diverse array of biological processes and cell lineages and cause a range of phenotypes,including severe anemia,defective pigmentation,sterility,mast cell deficits,a lack of interstitial cells of Cajal,spatial learning memory deficits,and defects in peripheral nerve regeneration. Here we show that tyrosine residues 567 and 569 in the juxtamembrane (Jx) domain of the murine Kit receptor tyrosine kinase are crucial for the function of Kit in melanogenesis and mast cell development,but are dispensable for the normal development of erythroid,interstitial cells of Cajal and germ cells. Furthermore,adult mice lacking both tyrosines exhibit splenomegaly,dysregulation of B-cell and megakaryocyte development,and enlarged stomachs. Analysis of signal transduction events induced by the mutant receptors after ligand stimulation indicates that Jx tyrosine mutations diminish receptor autophosphorylation and selectively attenuate activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase/mitogen-activated protein kinases. Together,these observations demonstrate that the Jx domain of Kit plays a cell-type specific regulatory role in vivo and illustrate how engineered mutations in Kit can be used to understand the complex biological and molecular events that result from activating a receptor tyrosine kinase.

Multilevel regulation of IL-6R by IL-6-sIL-6R fusion protein according to the primitiveness of peripheral blood-derived CD133+ cells.
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and its soluble receptor (sIL-6R) are major factors for maintenance and expansion of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Sensitivity of HSCs to IL-6 has been previously studied,in part by measuring the expression of IL-6R on the membrane (mIL-6R). Several studies have described the regulation of cell surface expression of IL-6R by several cytokines,but the role of glycoprotein 130 activation has not yet been investigated. In this study,CD133(+) cells were purified from adult peripheral blood and were precultured in the absence or presence of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) for selection of quiescent HSCs. Cells were cultured with continuous or pulsed stimulations of an IL-6-sIL-6R fusion protein (hyperinterleukin-6 [HIL-6]) to 1) detect mIL-6R by flow cytometry,2) assess mIL-6R and sIL-6R RNAs by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction,3) measure sIL-6R in supernatants by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay,4) analyze cell-cycle status,and 5) perform long-term culture-initiating cell assays. The level of mIL-6R(-) cells was preserved by 5-FU incubation. HIL-6 increased steady-state mIL-6R RNA and expression rate on HSCs,independently of treatment with 5-FU. Enhanced production of sIL-6R was observed with short pulses of HIL-6 on CD133(+) 5-FU-pretreated cells. This overproduction of sIL-6R was abrogated by tumor necrosis factor-alpha protease inhibitor-1,an inhibitor of a disintegrin and metalloprotease proteases,suggesting the shedding of mIL-6R. This phenomenon was mediated through the phosphatidylinositol-3'-kinase pathway and was involved in the maintenance of primitive HSCs. In conclusion,expression and production of IL-6R are tightly regulated and stage specific. We assume that sIL-6R produced by shedding should be involved in autocrine and paracrine loops in the HSC microenvironment.

A novel fusion of RBM6 to CSF1R in acute megakaryoblastic leukemia.
Activated tyrosine kinases have been frequently implicated in the pathogenesis of cancer,including acute myeloid leukemia (AML),and are validated targets for therapeutic intervention with small-molecule kinase inhibitors. To identify novel activated tyrosine kinases in AML,we used a discovery platform consisting of immunoaffinity profiling coupled to mass spectrometry that identifies large numbers of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins,including active kinases. This method revealed the presence of an activated colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) kinase in the acute megakaryoblastic leukemia (AMKL) cell line MKPL-1. Further studies using siRNA and a small-molecule inhibitor showed that CSF1R is essential for the growth and survival of MKPL-1 cells. DNA sequence analysis of cDNA generated by 5'RACE from CSF1R coding sequences identified a novel fusion of the RNA binding motif 6 (RBM6) gene to CSF1R gene generated presumably by a t(3;5)(p21;q33) translocation. Expression of the RBM6-CSF1R fusion protein conferred interleukin-3 (IL-3)-independent growth in BaF3 cells,and induces a myeloid proliferative disease (MPD) with features of megakaryoblastic leukemia in a murine transplant model. These findings identify a novel potential therapeutic target in leukemogenesis,and demonstrate the utility of phosphoproteomic strategies for discovery of tyrosine kinase alleles.
