Extended Data Figure 9.

a, Average percentage of the indicated cells per femur (normalized to day 0) at the indicated time points after L. monocytogenes infection of wild-type mice. (n = 6 mice for day 0 and day 2, n = 3 mice for day 4, n = 4 mice for day 6 and n = 3 mice for day 8). b, Histograms showing the distribution of distances from each MDP (green, n = 188 MDP from total 16 sternum sections of 6 uninfected wild-type mice and n = 37 MDP from total 3 sternum sections of 3 wild-type mice four days after L. monocytogenes infection), MOP (orange, n = 165 MOP from total 4 sternum sections of 3 uninfected wild-type mice and n = 377 MOP from total 3 sternum sections of 3 wild-type mice four days after L. monocytogenes infection) or GP (red, n = 308 GP from total 14 sternum sections of 6 uninfected wild-type mice and n = 218 GP from total 3 sternum sections of 3 wild-type mice four days after L. monocytogenes infection) to the indicated progenitors four days after L. monocytogenes infection of wild-type mice. c, number of GP or MOP per cluster for the sternum sections analyzed in b. Each dot represents a cluster; n = 16 GP clusters and n = 15 MOP clusters from total 3 wild-type mice four days after L. monocytogenes infection. d, Experimental design for in vivo fate mapping using Ubc-creERT2:confetti mice. e, Percentage of GP or MOP clusters with at least 1 confetti labeled GP or MOP that are monoclonal (all cells in the cluster are labeled in the same confetti color) or oligoclonal (containing cells with at least two different origins: CFP+, YFP+, or no confetti label). Each dot represents a GP or MOP cluster from total 3 sternum segments from 2 confetti mice in two experiments four days after L. monocytogenes infection. f, Representative image showing a cluster composed of MDP-derived Gfi1lo and GMP-derived Gfi1hi MOP in Gfi1-tomato mice four days after L. monocytogenes infection. Scale bar = 10 μm. g, Percentage of GMP-derived Gfi1hi MOP (orange dots) or MDP-derived Gfi1lo MOP (purple dots) per cluster (each dot = 1 cluster, n = 15 clusters in total 3 sternum sections from 2 Gfi1-tomato mice four days after L. monocytogenes infection). h, Quantification of CD117 expression in PN of wild type mice at the indicated time points after infection. (n = 6 mice for day 0, n = 8 mice for day 2 and day 4, n = 5 mice for day 6 and n = 4 mice for day 8). i, Map showing the location of Gfi1hi and Gfi1lo MOP, MDP, Ly6Chi, and Ly6Clo monocytes in a sternum segment from Gfi1-tomato mice four days after infection. Scale bar = 200 μm. j, Histograms showing the distribution of distances from each Gfi1hi (orange) and Gfi1lo (purple) MOP and MDP (green) to the indicated cells in uninfected wild-type mice or four days after L. monocytogenes infection. Note that the d0 values are the same as shown in Fig. 2g,i. (n = 113 Gfi1hi MOP and n = 72 Gfi1lo MOP from total 3 sternum sections of 3 uninfected Gfi1-tomato mice; n = 155 Gfi1hi MOP and n = 144 Gfi1lo MOP from total 3 sternum sections of 2 Gfi1-tomato mice four days after L. monocytogenes infection; MDP-Ly6Chi monocyte, n = 67 MDP from total 6 sternum sections of 4 mice; MDP-Ly6Clo monocyte, n = 67 MDP from total 6 sternum sections of 4 wild-type uninfected mice; MDP-cDC, n = 139 MDP from total 11 sternum sections of 6 wild-type uninfected mice; and n = 32 MDP from total 3 sternum sections of 3 wild-type mice four days after L. monocytogenes infection). k, Representative image showing lack of contribution of a confetti-labeled MOP. Tracked cells are YFP+, CFP+ or unlabeled CD117+CD115+CD11b-Ly6C+ MOP, CD117-CD115+CD11b+Ly6Chi monocytes and CD117-CD115+CD11b+Ly6Clo monocytes. Scale bar = 10 μm. l, Quantification of cell numbers for CFP- (white) and CFP+ (blue) Ly6Chi monocytes (left) or Ly6Clo monocytes (right) found within the indicated distances to the closest CFP+ MOP cell in the confetti mice four days after L. monocytogenes infection. Each dot represents one CFP+ MOP from total 8 sternum segment of 2 confetti mice in two experiments four days after L. monocytogenes infection. m, Representative image showing lack of contribution of a confetti-labeled MDP to surrounding monocytes. Tracked cells are YFP+, CFP+ or unlabeled CD117+CD115+CD11b-Ly6C- MDP, CD117+CD115+CD11b-Ly6C+ MOP, CD117-CD115+CD11b+Ly6Chi monocytes and CD117-CD115+CD11b+Ly6Clo monocytes. Scale bar = 20 μm. n, qPCR analyses showing Csf1 mRNA levels (normalized to not infected) in BM endothelial cells FACS-purified from wild-type mice in the steady-state or 4 days after infection. n = total 3 uninfected mice and n = total 3 infected mice in two experiments. o, Histogram showing the distance from each MDP to the closest sinusoid in control (pool of Cre:Csf1+/−, Csf1+/−, and Csf1fl/-) or Csf1ΔEC mice 4 days after infection. n = 58 MDP from total 4 sternum sections of 3 control mice and n = 36 MDP from total 4 sternum sections of 3 Csf1ΔEC mice. p, q, Maps (p) showing the location of the indicated cells; and histogram (q) showing the distance from each MDP to the closest Ly6Clo monocyte and cDC in control or Csf1ΔEC mice 4 days after infection. n = 51 MDP from total 3 sternum sections of 3 control mice and n = 29 MDP from total 3 sternum sections of 3 Csf1ΔEC mice. r. Number of the indicated cells per femur in control or Csf1ΔEC mice 4 days after infection. Each dot indicates one mouse. n = 3 control and n = 3 Csf1ΔEC mice. Unless otherwise indicated for all panels one dot = one cell. Statistical differences were calculated using two-tailed Student’s T tests and p values are shown. ns = not significant.
