Inflammatory exposure drives long-lived impairment of hematopoietic stem cell self-renewal activity and accelerated aging
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) mediate regeneration of the hematopoietic system following injury, such as following infection or inflammation. These challenges impair HSC function, but whether this functional impairment extends beyond the duration of inflammatory exposure is unknown. Unexpectedly, we observed an irreversible depletion of functional HSCs following challenge with inflammation or bacterial infection, with no evidence of any recovery up to 1 year afterward. HSCs from challenged mice demonstrated multiple cellular and molecular features of accelerated aging and developed clinically relevant blood and bone marrow phenotypes not normally observed in aged laboratory mice but commonly seen in elderly humans. In vivo HSC self-renewal divisions were absent or extremely rare during both challenge and recovery periods. The progressive, irreversible attrition of HSC function demonstrates that temporally discrete inflammatory events elicit a cumulative inhibitory effect on HSCs. This work positions early/mid-life inflammation as a mediator of lifelong defects in tissue maintenance and regeneration.

“Moreover, Bogeska et al. showed that inflammatory exposure induces long-term impairment of HSC self-renewal and accelerates their functional aging, contributing to persistent immune dysregulation [83].”

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe source backs part of the claim, not all of it — or backs it for a different population, condition or comparison.
In the citing paper
“while repetitive sterile inflammation did not result in major gene expression changes, it resulted in hypomethylation of promoters of inflammatory (particularly interferon) response genes, leading them to conclude that self-renewal is epigenetically regulated in this model.”

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“Inflammation drives impaired self-renewal activity and accelerates aging of HSCs. Exposure to inflammatory stimuli during the early to mid-life stages in mice can lead to the eventual development of peripheral blood hemocytopenia, bone marrow (BM) cytopenia, and BM adipocyte accumulation, features that together constitute typical features of hematopoiesis in the elderly.17”

“Chronic pro-inflammatory signaling due to chronic infections or repetitive sterile inflammation, however, has been shown to be detrimental to HSPC self-renewal, promoting loss of quiescence and differentiation [61–65].”

The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“the authors showed that the demise of the functional stem cell population was not due to systemic inhibitory effects of inflammation on hematopoiesis but was due to increased proliferation of HSPCs, as label-retaining long-term HSPCs did not lose their repopulating capacity with chronic inflammation [65].”

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.
