Impaired hematopoietic stem cell homeostasis in allergen-induced airway inflammation. (A, B) Representative FACS plots and quantification of HSCs (LSKs, LinSca-1+c-Kit+) from the bone marrow (BM) of the OVA-treated mice (OVA) and controls (NS). (C) Absolute numbers of stem cells at different stages, including LT-HSCs (CD34Flk2LSKs), ST-HSCs (CD34+Flk2LSKs) and MPPs (CD34+Flk2+LSKs). (D) BrdU incorporation assay (24 h) of BM LT-HSCs from the OVA-treated mice (OVA) and controls (NS). (E, F) Absolute numbers of progenitor cells in the BM. CLP, common lymphoid progenitors; GMP, granulocyte/monocyte lineage progenitors; CMP, common myeloid progenitors; MEP, megakaryocyte/erythroid progenitors. (G) A single LT-HSC was sorted into a 96-well plate to perform a colony forming assay. The percentage of colonies was calculated by dividing the original cell number in each colony (n= 3). (H, I) Changes in spleen appearances: long diameter and spleen weight compared with body weight. (J, K) Percentage of LSK cells in Lin cells (J) and quantification numbers (K) in the spleen (SP). Data are shown as the means ± SEM with at least six samples per group. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 versus respective controls.
