RUNX1 is a transcription factor that regulates many essential aspects of hematopoiesis. Hence, disruption of normal RUNX1 function by mutations or chromosomal translocations has been found in a variety of human diseases including leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), myeloproliferative neoplasms and other blood malignancies. Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) rely on RUNX1 for their initial specification, decision to differentiate and overall homeostasis. 1, 2 From the recently published study by Chin et al., 3 the authors reported that RUNX1 haploinsufficiency results in granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) hypersensitivity. Hence, HSCs have now also been shown to rely on RUNX1 for proper interaction with the bone marrow niche. 3 Here we provide complimentary evidence that RUNX1 may mediate cell-to-cell interactions through analysis of differential gene expression and RUNX1 genome occupancy data. Furthermore, loss of normal RUNX1 function results in enhanced mobilization upon G-CSF treatment, and even more mobilization upon a combination regimen of G-CSF and AMD3100, a CXCR4 inhibitor. These findings suggest that RUNX1 mutation status should be evaluated before treatment with HSC mobilization reagents.Runx1 conditional knockout (KO) mice have served as a useful tool to study how disruption of RUNX1 affects hematopoiesis, as Runx1 deletion in adults is not lethal and results in a myeloproliferative phenotype. 1, 4 We used Ingenuity Pathway Analysis to analyze our previously published data from differentially expressed genes in HSCs (defined as lineage−, sca1+, ckit+ or LSK) from wild-type (WT) and KO mice, and from RUNX1 chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with deep sequencing in the mouse erythroid myeloid lymphoid (also known as EML) HSC-like cell line (Supplementary Table 1). 5 Interestingly, the top network included terms such as ‘cell-to-cell signaling’and ‘interaction, cellular movement and immune cell trafficking’(Supplementary Table 2), which suggests that RUNX1 may have a role in mediating the interaction between HSCs and the bone marrow niche.
