RNA-seq of uncultured CD112high and CD112low long-term(LT) human hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) and cultured and lentiviral transduced (CTRL, INKA1-OE) LT- and short-term HSC from umbilical cord blood We performed RNA-sequencing to elucidate the biological pathways (1) altered by INKA1 overexpression in LT-HSC and ST-HSC that may contribute to the induced transient restraint in generating proliferative hematopoietic output in vivo and in vitro; and (2) that underlie the differential in vitro priming and regeneration phenotypes of CD112high and CD112low LT-HSC. Therefore, we prospectively isolated indicated subpopulations from 3 independent human umbilical cord blood pools and subjected them either to RNA-sequencing directly or following culture, lentiviral transduction and purification of the transduced cell fractions. We show that distinct subsets of human LT-HSC respond differently to regeneration-mediated stress and that INKA1 governs these distinct stemness states where CD112low LT-HSC are marked by an alternative state of quiescence with high INKA1 preserving self-renewal and regenerative capacity upon successive rounds of regeneration-mediated stress. Overall design: Gene expression profiling of RNA from 2-3 pools of human cord blood sorted by flow cytometry into indicated suppopulations either directly (CD112high/low LT-HSC) or after lentiviral transduction of prospectively isolated LT- and ST-HSC and sorting for transduced cells (BFP+) 6 days post-transduction >>>Submitter states that raw data will be submitted to EGA due to data access requirements.<<<
