    Abstract:
    Distinct subsets of resident tissue macrophages are important in hematopoietic stem cell niche homeostasis and erythropoiesis. We used a myeloid reporter gene (Csf1r-eGFP) to dissect the persistence of bone marrow and splenic macrophage subsets following lethal irradiation and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in a mouse model. Multiple recipient bone marrow and splenic macrophage subsets survived after autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with organ-specific persistence kinetics. Short-term persistence (5 weeks) of recipient resident macrophages in spleen paralleled the duration of extramedullary hematopoiesis. In bone marrow, radiation-resistant recipient CD169+ resident macrophages and erythroid-island macrophages self-repopulated long-term after transplantation via autonomous cell division. Posttransplant peak expansion of recipient CD169+ resident macrophage number in bone marrow aligned with the persistent engraftment of phenotypic long-term reconstituting hematopoietic stem cells within bone marrow. Selective depletion of recipient CD169+ macrophages significantly compromised the engraftment of phenotypic long-term reconstituting hematopoietic stem cells and consequently impaired hematopoietic reconstitution. Recipient bone marrow resident macrophages are essential for optimal hematopoietic stem cell transplantation outcomes and could be an important consideration in the development of pretransplant conditioning therapies and/or chemoresistance approaches.
