英文摘要
The hematopoietic system in mammals is composed of diverse cell types that
perform distinct and specialized functions. These terminally
differentiated cells are short-lived, formed from a pool of totipotent
hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) whose presumptive origin is the mesodermal
cells of the yolk sac blood islands. Although progress has been made in
the identification of HSC activity from the adult bone marrow, no such
homogeneous cell population has been identified, and no genetic markers
exist to identify such cells. We hypothesize that transcripts unique to
the earliest HSC will provide genetic lineage markers enabling us to trace
and manipulate the development of the primordial HSC.
Using a molecular genetic approach we have recently identified a novel cDNA
clone from a 9.5 day blood island/yolk sac cDNA library using the human
myeloid zinc finger (MZF)-1 cDNAproble. This newly identified cDNA clone,
extraembryonic mesoderm zinc finger-1 (EM ZF-1), was shown to be expressed
exclusively in the extraembryonic mesoderm of the yolk sac, ina the fetal
liver and heart of developing embryos and in the bone marrow, spleen and
thymus of adult mice suggesting a role in mammalian hematopoiesis. This
gene is located on mouse chromosome 5 and contains 12 C2H2 Kruppel-like
zinc finger motifs in two separate regions which are highly homologous to
several of the finger domains in MZF-1. EMZF-1 also contains an
alanine/arginine-rich region downstream from the zinc finger motif. Such
a domain has been found in other zinc finger genes and appears to be
important for transcriptional regulation. The EMZF-1 gene maps to human
chromosome 7 in an area associated with myeloid and lymphoid leukemias.
Interestingly, PLZF, a newly discovered gene identified as a fusion partner
with retinoid acid receptor-alpha in a variant t (11;17) translocation
associated with acute promyelocytic leukemia, is also homologous to EMZF-1.
Thus, EMZF-1 is the third member of a newly formed hematopoietic-specific
zinc finger gene family whose function appears to be in the control of
hematopoietic differentiation. The functional requirement for the EMZF-1
gene product appears early in mouse development since antisense
oligonucleotides specific for EMZF-1 abrogates hematopoiesis in 14.5 day
fetal liver and adult bone marrow cultures in vitro. Finally, another cDNA
clone demonstrating high cross reactivity to the EMZF-1 was identified.
This clone, LM-1D has been partially sequenced and determined to be an
independent cDNA. We propose to characterize the lineage-specific
expression of EMZF-1, identify its genomic structure and promoter elements
and to begin the analysis of its function in vivo. The potential of EMZF-1
and the highly related LM-1D clone as molecular markers of primordial HSCs
will be explored in vitro and in vivo and their function in hematopoiesis
and leukemigenesis elucidated.
