Advances in pluripotent stem cell and reprogramming technologies have given hope of generating hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) in culture. To succeed, greater understanding of the self-renewing HSC during human development is required. We discovered that glycophosphatidylinositol-anchored surface protein GPI-80 defines a subpopulation of human fetal liver hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPC) with self-renewal ability. CD34+CD38lo/−CD90+GPI-80+ HSPC were the sole population that maintained proliferative potential and undifferentiated state in stroma co-culture and engrafted in immunodeficient mice. GPI-80 expression also enabled tracking of HSPC once they have emerged from endothelium and migrate between human fetal hematopoietic niches. GPI-80 co-localized on the surface of HSPC with Integrin alpha-M (ITGAM), which in leukocytes cooperates with GPI-80 to support migration. Knockdown of GPI-80 or ITGAM was sufficient to compromise HSPC expansion in culture and engraftment in vivo. These findings indicate that human fetal HSC employ mechanisms used in leukocyte adhesion and migration to mediate HSC self-renewal.
