Popis: | Objective LYL-1 is a transcription factor containing a basic helix-loop-helix motif closely related to SCL/TAL-1, a regulator of erythroid differentiation. Because LYL-1 is expressed in erythroid cell populations, we addressed its role in erythropoiesis using knockin mice. Materials and Methods Erythropoiesis of LYL-1 −/− mice was studied by progenitor assays, flow cytometry, reconstitution assays, and functional tests. Expression of LYL-1, SCL , and GATA-1 was assessed at messenger RNA level by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Results LYL-1 −/− mice displayed decreased erythropoiesis with a partial arrest in differentiation, and enhanced apoptosis associated with decreased Bcl-x L expression in the bone marrow (BM). In addition, LYL-1 −/− BM cells were severely impaired in their abilities to reconstitute the erythroid lineage in competitive assays, suggesting a cell autonomous abnormality of erythropoiesis. In parallel, erythroid progenitor and precursor cells were significantly increased in the spleen of LYL-1 −/− mice. Expression of LYL-1 was differentially regulated during maturation of erythroblasts and strikingly different between spleen- and BM-derived erythroblasts. Expression of LYL-1 decreased during erythroid differentiation in the spleen whereas it increased in the BM to reach the same level in mature erythroblasts as in the soleen. Loss of Lyl-1 expression was accompanied with an increase of SCL / TAL-1 and GATA-1 transcripts in spleen but not in BM-derived erythroblasts. Furthermore, phenylhydrazine-induced stress erythropoiesis was elevated in LYL-1 −/− mice and mutant BM and spleen erythroid progenitors were hypersensitive to erythropoietin. Conclusions Taken together, these results suggest that LYL-1 plays a definite role in erythropoiesis, albeit with different effects in BM specifically regulating basal erythropoiesis, and spleen, controlling stress-induced erythropoiesis. |
