Περίληψη: | Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a prototypic autoimmune disease that affects mainly women and typically exhibits manifestations in multiple organs including skin, joints, kidneys and nervous system. It is a complex disease resulting from the interaction of heritable (genetic and epigenetic), hormonal and environmental factors. Immune complexes, auto-antibodies and all blood cells (auto-reactive lymphocytes, dendritic cells, etc) are involved in clinical manifestations. Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cells (HSPCs) are multipotent cells giving rise to all blood cell lineages, both myeloid and lymphoid. We reasoned that the aberrancies of immune cells observed in SLE could be traced back to HSPCs. The aim of the study is to further investigate the role and function of bone marrow-derived HSPCs in SLE. Bone marrow (BM) samples from female NBZW/F1 lupus-prone mice and their age-matched controls were used. HSPCs defined as Lin-Sca-1+c-Kit+ hematopoietic progenitors (LSK). Transcriptomic analysis of LSK from diseased lupus mice demonstrated a strong myeloid signature accompanied with expanded frequencies of common myeloid progenitors (CMPs) -but not of common lymphoid progenitors (CLPs)- reminiscent of a “trained immunity” signature. CMP profiling revealed an intense transcriptome reprogramming with suppression of granulocytic regulators as major regulators such as Cebpe, Cebpd and Csf3r are downregulated in lupus mice. The data are indicative of a differentiation arrest and disturbed myelopoiesis. Despite the differentiation arrest, frequencies of BM neutrophils were markedly increased in diseased mice suggesting an alternative granulopoiesis pathway. In humans, hematopoietic progenitors were defined and isolated as CD34+ BM cells. In SLE patients with severe disease pattern, CD34+ demonstrated enhanced proliferation, cell differentiation and transcriptional activation of cytokines and chemokines that drive differentiation towards myelopoiesis thus mirroring the murine data. Comparative analysis of human and murine transcriptional profiles revealed that murine CMP and human CD34+ cells shared an attenuated myeloid signature consistent with a differentiation arrest. Collectively, these data demonstrate priming of HSPCs and aberrant regulation of myelopoiesis in SLE, potentially contributing to persistent inflammation and risk for flare. The data point out the crucial role of BM homeostasis in SLE pathogenesis therefore the construction of in vitro BM simulating system is emerging. This system will provide easily further mechanistic and functional investigation with fewer samples from animal models and human samples. |
