Abstract

The transcriptional programs of human hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) and early G and Mk differentiation grom human HSC in response to lineage-specific cytokines were studied by utilizing DNA microarrays containing over 21,000 human genes. The degree of respective lineage comitments were assessed by detection of lineage associated surface markers using flow cytometry. The rsults show the decrease in expression of HSC realted genes and proteins in G and Mk cultures. In Mk cells, the expression levels of granule proteins myeloperoxidase (MPO), cathepsin G (CTSG) and Charot-Leyden crystal protein (CLC) were comparable to or higher than those in G cells. G-cells displayed a high mRNA level of GATA-1, an important Mk transcription factor.
