Summary of inflammatory responses of HSC niche cells under different inflammatory/stress conditions.

Inflammation/Stress Cell Type Regulators Inflammatory Responses Reference
Chronic Obesity Adipocyte TNF-α
IL-1β
IL-6
Adipocytes secreted diverse inflammatory cytokines and accumulated adipocytes impaired reconstitution potentials, increased myelopoiesis, and suppressed lymphopoiesis of HSCs [77,79,80,81]
Chronic MAPK-induced inflammation Endothelial cell NF-κB Impaired HSC survival and functionality [101]
Acute pI:C/IFN-α administration Endothelial cell VEGF Vasculature expansion by haematopoietic and non-haematopoietic pathways [102]
Acute Listeria monocytogenes infection Endothelial cell M-CSF Loss of endothelial-derived CSF1 disrupted localisation of myeloid progenitors in perisinusoidal niche and, in turn, promoted dendritic cell generation [103]
Acute G-CSF administration Macrophage (Osteomac) n.d. G-CSF administration depleted BM macrophages, and in turn, suppressed HSC-supportive osteoblasts [104]
Acute Haemolytic anaemia Macrophage (Osteomac) n.d. The presence of macrophages is critical to erythroid recovery [105]
Acute Macrophage depletion Macrophage (Osteomac) n.d. Macrophage depletion suppresses MSCs’ expression of HSC retention genes [106]
Acute 5-FU Megakaryocyte (MK) FGF1 MKs supported HSC regeneration by increasing FG1 secretion [107]
Chronic Obesity Megakaryocyte (MK) IL-1β Obesity augmented MK and platelet function and upregulated their inflammatory gene expressions [108]
Chronic Porphyromonas gingivalis infection Megakaryocyte (MK) IL-1β Increased platelet production [108]
Acute TNF-α, IFN-γ, IL-1α/β signals Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) IDO
NO
PGE2
Activated MSCs secreted immunosuppressive molecules inhibited T cell proliferation and activities [28,109]
Acute LCMV infection Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) IFN-γ LCMV infection disrupted structural morphology, network, and capability of HSC-supportive cytokine secretion of CAR cells [110]
Acute NP-CGG immunisation Neutrophil n.d. Neutrophil emigration from BM to create a vacancy in BM to promote myeloid cell generation [111]
Acute Staphylococcus aureus infection Osteoblast G-CSF Osteoblastic suppression by G-CSF impaired osteoblasts’ support to HSCs and promoted HSC mobilisation [112,113,114]
Acute Lithium treatment Sympathetic nerve β-catenin Increased HSPC proliferation, mobilisation, and granulocyte colony formation [115]
Acute Adrenergic neurotransmitter treatment Sympathetic nerve β-catenin Increased hCD34+ HSPC proliferation, mobilisation, and repopulating potential in vivo via canonical Wnt signalling pathway [116]
Chronic Neurotransmission ablation Sympathetic nerve G-CSF Neurotransmission ablation suppressed HSC mobilisation and osteoblast function [117,118]
Chronic Altered circadian rhythms Sympathetic nerve CXCL12 Altered adrenergic signals disrupted rhythmic CXCL12 oscillations in BM and in turn dysregulation circadian HSC mobilisation [119]
Acute Allograft transplant Treg cells IL-10 The presence of Treg cells was critical to support the survival of allo-HSCs [2]
