View SamplesHematopoiesis requires the interaction of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) with various stromal microenvironments. Here, we examine the role of early B cell factor 2 (Ebf2), a transcription factor expressed in a subset of immature osteoblastic cells. Ebf2-/- mice show decreased frequencies of HSCs and lineage-committed progenitors. This defect is cell nonautonomous, as shown by the fact that transplantation of Ebf2-deficient bone marrow into wild-type hosts results in normal hematopoiesis. In coculture experiments, Ebf2 Ebf2-/-osteoblastic cells have reduced potential to support short-term proliferation of HSCs. Expression profiling of sorted Ebf2-/- osteoblastic cells indicated that several genes implicated in the maintenance of HSCs are downregulated relative to Ebf2+/- cells, whereas genes encoding secreted frizzled-related proteins are upregulated. Moreover, HSCs from Ebf2-/- mice and wild-type HSCs cocultured with Ebf2-/- osteoblastic cells show reduced Wnt responses. Thus, Ebf2 acts as a transcriptional determinant of an osteoblastic niche that regulates the maintenance of hematopoietic progenitors, in part by modulating Wnt signaling.

View SamplesWe generated a gene replacement allele of the E-cadherin locus that express an N-cadherin-GFP fusion in ES cells. Expression profiles of homozygous and heterozygous knock-in ES cells were analyzed in comparison to wt ES cells.
Adhesion, but not a specific cadherin code, is indispensable for ES cell and induced pluripotency.

View SamplesWe performed microarray analysis of gene expression in WT and Ets1-/- CD4+ CD8+ DP thymocytes. Overall, we find that Ets1-/- thymocytes display gene expression signatures closer to previous stages of thymocyte development (e.g. DN3-4) than WT DP cells, suggesting that while these cells do become DP thymocytes in the absence of Ets1, that the latter is required for the upregulation of later T-cell genes and that its presence is required for the downregulation of genes corresponding to earlier and alternative stages of development.
Dynamic recruitment of Ets1 to both nucleosome-occupied and -depleted enhancer regions mediates a transcriptional program switch during early T-cell differentiation.
