Murine hemogenic endothelial precursors display heterogeneous hematopoietic potential ex vivo.
Experimental Hematology 2017 July
Hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) sustain life-long hematopoiesis and are first detected in the embryo by transplantation at embryonic day 10.5 (E10.5). HSPCs are mesodermal in origin and ultimately emerge from a subset of arterial endothelium (i.e., hemogenic endothelium [HE]), which is highly concentrated in the aorta-gonad-mesonephros region of the midgestation embryo. Here, we used clonal ex vivo assays, in which endothelial cells isolated from the midgestation aorta and vitelline and umbilical arteries are co-cultured on supportive stroma, to show that only about 0.1%, 1.3%, and 0.29% of E9.5, E10.5, and E11.5 endothelium are functional HE, respectively. We further show high phenotypic and functional variability in the hematopoietic potential of individual hemogenic endothelial precursors. Using unique niche stroma capable of providing the signals necessary for definitive hematopoietic stem cell (dHSC) induction, we demonstrate that this variability in HE includes their potential to support phenotypic dHSCs. These data suggest the presence of a continuum of maturing HE with distinct hematopoietic potential or HE representative of a heterogeneous pool of precursors that give rise to HSPCs with disparate hematopoietic potential.
