The transcription factor PU.1 is a critical regulator of lineage fate in blood-forming hematopoietic stem cells (HSC). In response to inflammatory signals, PU.1 expression is increased in HSC, activating myeloid differentiation genes while repressing cell cycle and protein synthesis genes. To address potential functional heterogeneity arising in the phenotypic HSC compartment due to changes in PU.1 expression, here we fractionated phenotypic HSC using the SLAM code in conjunction with PU.1 expression levels using the PU.1-EYFP reporter mouse strain. While PU.1lo SLAM cells contain extensive long-term repopulating activity and a molecular signature corresponding to HSC activity at steady state, under inflammatory conditions the PU.1lo SLAM fraction is comprised almost entirely of HSC-like cells containing extensive short-term megakaryocytic potential. Our data demonstrate that the phenotypic HSC gate is heterogenous, and that similar PU.1 transcription factor levels can be tied to distinct functional activities under steady-state and inflammatory conditions.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
