Abstract

Mast cells (MCs) are tissue-resident hematopoietic cells intensely studied for their role as effectors in allergic immune responses. Yolk sac-derived embryonic MCs first populate tissues and are later replaced by definitive MCs. We show that definitive MC progenitors expand locally in skin and form clonal colonies that cover stable territories. In MC-deficient skin, colonies grow by proliferation of MCs at the border of the clonal territory. Clonal growth ceases at common borders of neighboring colonies. In steady state, colony self-renewal is independent of bone marrow contribution, and the clonal architecture remains fixed if not disturbed by skin inflammation. Inflammatory cues increase MC density setpoint, stimulating the influx of new progenitors from the bone marrow as well as proliferation of skin-resident cells. The expanding new arrivals disrespect territories of preexisting MC clones. We conclude that during a limited window early in development, definitive MC precursors efficiently enter the skin, expand, and self-maintain, occupying stable territories. In adulthood, circulating progenitors, excluded from steady-state skin, are recruited only into inflamed skin where they clonally expand alongside proliferating skin-resident MCs, disorganizing the original architecture of clonal territories.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
