Clinical studies using bone marrow-derived proangiogenic cells (PACs) have demonstrated modest improvements of function and/or perfusion of ischemic myocardium or skeletal muscle. Because the identities of these PACs and their functional ability to promote neovascularization remain poorly understood, it is possible that a subset of robust PACs exists but is obscured by the heterogeneous nature of this cell population. Herein, we found that common myeloid progenitors (CMPs) and granulocyte-macrophage progenitors (GMPs) preferentially differentiate into PACs compared with megakaryocyte-erythrocyte progenitors, hematopoietic stem cells, and common lymphoid progenitors. In vivo hindlimb ischemia studies and Matrigel plug assays verified the enhanced neovascularization properties uniquely associated with PACs derived from CMPs and GMPs. Taken together, these observations identify CMPs and GMPs as key bone marrow progenitors for optimal PAC function in vitro and in vivo and provide a foundation for novel therapeutic approaches to modulate angiogenesis.

Backgroud: The influence of scaffolds with bone marrow (BM) niche-like mechanical properties on the stemness and lineage differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in vitro has been studied. Previous research has demonstrated that 3D collagen hydrogels can regulate the differentiation trajectory of late myeloid progenitors, leading to the specialization of '3D-macrophages' that express various chemokine genes, including Cxcl2 and Cd14. Comprehensive transcriptional profiles in single-cell level have characterized the interaction between 3D-macrophages and neutrophil clusters through the CXCL2/CXCR2 ligand-receptor binding.

Background: Erythroid and myeloid differentiation disorders are commonly occurred in leukemia. Given that the relationship between erythroid and myeloid lineages is still unclear. To find the co-regulators in erythroid and myeloid differentiation might help to find new target for therapy of myeloid leukemia.

In sarcoidosis, granulomas develop in multiple organs including the liver and lungs. Although mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) activation in macrophages drives granuloma development in sarcoidosis by enhancing macrophage proliferation, little is known about the macrophage subsets that proliferate and mature into granuloma macrophages. Here, we show that aberrantly increased monocytopoiesis gives rise to granulomas in a sarcoidosis model, in which Tsc2, a negative regulator of mTORC1, is conditionally deleted in CSF1R-expressing macrophages (Tsc2csf1rΔ mice).

Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) play a crucial role in the context of viral infections and their associated diseases. The link between HSCs and HPCs and disease status in COVID-19 patients is largely unknown. This study aimed to monitor the kinetics and contributions of HSCs and HPCs in severe and non-severe COVID-19 patients and to evaluate their diagnostic performance in differentiating between healthy and COVID-19 patients as well as severe and non-severe cases.

Myeloid hematopoiesis is a finely controlled consecutive developmental process, which is essential to maintain peripheral innate immune homeostasis. Herein, we found that Rictor deletion caused the remarkable reduction of granulocyte-monocyte progenitors (GMPs), monocytes, and macrophages, while the levels of neutrophils were unaffected. Adoptive transfer of Rictor-deleted GMPs or common myeloid progenitors (CMPs) in syngeneic mice showed poor re-constitution of monocytes compared to wild-type GMPs or CMPs.
