HOXA4 induces expansion of hematopoietic stem cells in vitro and confers enhancement of pro-B-cells in vivo.

Abstract:

:Members of the homeobox (Hox) gene family are known to mediate expansion of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and progenitors. The absence of oncogenic properties promoted HOXB4 as prime candidate in the quest to expand HSCs for clinical purposes. Despite its potential to expand HSCs, studies with mutant mice showed that Hoxb4 is not essential for HSC generation and function under physiological conditions. Expression studies and the existence of functional redundancy in particular between paralog Hox genes suggest that HOXA4 might have potent properties to expand HSCs. Here we measured the ability of HOXA4 to promote ex vivo expansion of HSCs and progenitors using retrovirus-mediated overexpression. Our results provide evidence that HOXA4-transduced HSCs and primitive progenitors expand in culture conditions and demonstrate that the potential of expanded HOXA4 HSCs to give rise to mature myeloid and lymphoid progeny in normal proportions remained intact. Interestingly, constitutive overexpression of HOXA4 resulted in an unbalanced expansion of lymphoid/myeloid progenitors in bone marrow chimeras favorable to B-cell progenitors responsive to interleukin-7. This expansion was specific for these progenitors and not for the more primitive Whitlock-Witte-initiating cells. These data indicate that early stages of B-cell development associated with proliferation are in particular sensitive to HOXA4. Thus, this study supports the potential use of HOXA4 to expand both HSCs and B-cell progenitor populations for therapeutic strategies.
