Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) maintain blood production. How often mouse HSCs divide and whether each HSC contributes simultaneously, sequentially, or repetitively to hematopoiesis remains to be determined. We track division of 5-(and-6)-carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester (CFSE)–labeled HSC in vivo. We found that, in steady-state mice, bone marrow cells capable of reconstituting lifelong hematopoiesis are found within both fast-cycling (undergoing five or more divisions in 7 wk) and quiescent (undergoing zero divisions in 12–14 wk) lineage marker–negative c-Kit+ Sca-1+ populations. The contribution of each population to hematopoiesis can fluctuate with time, and cells with extensive proliferative history are prone to return to quiescence. Furthermore, injection of the bacterial component lipopolysaccharide increased the proliferation and self-renewal capacity of HSCs. These findings suggest a model in which all HSCs undergo dynamic and demand-adapted entry into and exit out of the cell cycle over time. This may facilitate a similar degree of turnover of the entire HSC pool at the end of life.

The Relationship

The in vitro human tumor cloning assay originally described by Salmon and Hamburger has been applied recently to the investigation of differential anti-tumor drug sensitivities over a broad range of human neoplasms. A major problem in the acceptance of this technique has been the question of the relationship between the cultured cells and the original patient tumor, i.e., whether the colonies that develop derive from the neoplasm or from some other cell type within the initial cell population. A study of the ultrastructural morphology of the cultured cells vs. patient tumor has therefore been undertaken to resolve this question. Direct correlation was assured by division of a common tumor mass at surgical resection, one biopsy being fixed for TEM studies, the second being rapidly transported to the laboratory for culture.

Arterial Responses

A variety of brain cells participates in neurovascular coupling by transmitting and modulating vasoactive signals. The present study aimed to probe cell type-dependent cerebrovascular (i.e., pial and penetrating arterial) responses with optogenetics in the cortex of anesthetized mice. Two lines of the transgenic mice expressing a step function type of light-gated cation channel (channelrhodopsine-2; ChR2) in either cortical neurons (muscarinic acetylcholine receptors) or astrocytes (Mlc1-positive) were used in the experiments. Photo-activation of ChR2-expressing astrocytes resulted in a widespread increase in cerebral blood flow (CBF), extending to the nonstimulated periphery. In contrast, photo-activation of ChR2-expressing neurons led to a relatively localized increase in CBF. The differences in the spatial extent of the CBF responses are potentially explained by differences in the involvement of the vascular compartments. In vivo imaging of the cerebrovascular responses revealed that ChR2-expressing astrocyte activation led to the dilation of both pial and penetrating arteries, whereas ChR2-expressing neuron activation predominantly caused dilation of the penetrating arterioles. Pharmacological studies showed that cell type-specific signaling mechanisms participate in the optogenetically induced cerebrovascular responses. In conclusion, pial and penetrating arterial vasodilation were differentially evoked by ChR2-expressing astrocytes and neurons.

Abstract BACKGROUND H3 K27M-mutant diffuse midline glioma (DMG) is invariably lethal. Viruses naturally engage innate immunity, induce antigen presentation, and mediate CD8 T cell priming against foreign antigens. Polioviruses, in particular, are uniquely tropic for dendritic cells (DC) and potently activate DC, inducing Th1-dominant cytokine profiles, CD8 T cell immunity, and enhanced epitope presentation. Thus, poliovirus is ideally suited for vectored delivery of signature tumor neoantigens, e.g. the H3 K27M feature of DMG. However, poliovirus vector design is inherently limited by genetic instability and the underlying neuropathogenicity of poliovirus. METHODS We created a genetically stable, polio:rhinovirus chimera vector devoid of neuropathogenicity and modified for stable expression of the HLA-A2 restricted H3.3 K27M antigen (RIPO (H3.3)). RESULTS RIPO(H3.3) infects, activates, and induces H3.3K27M antigen presentation in DCs in vitro. Given intramuscularly in vivo, RIPO(H3.3) recruits and activates DCs with Th1-dominant cytokine profiles, efficiently primes H3.3K27M-specific CD8 T cells, induces antigen-specific CD8 T cell migration to the tumor site, delays tumor growth, and enhances survival in murine tumor models. CONCLUSION This novel approach leverages the unique ability of polioviruses to activate DCs while simultaneously introducing the H3.3 K27M antigen. In this way, DCs are activated optimally in situ, while being simultaneously infected to express/present tumor antigen. RIPO(H3.3), given by intramuscular injection, will be evaluated in a clinical trial for children with H3 K27M-mutant diffuse midline glioma.
