Dual Role of α-MSH in Colitis Progression: Mediating Neutrophil Differentiation via Bone Marrow by Liao X, Liu H, Li Y, Zhang W, Dai Q, Wei H, Zhou J, Xie X, Zhou H

“…Additionally, we used flow cytometry, adeno-associated virus-mediated gene silence, parabiosis and single-cell RNA sequencing to uncover the specific roles and mechanisms of the HPA in colitis.Results: Our results indicate that colitis activates HPA secretion and increases α-MSH. α-MSH acts on the MC5R present on the surface of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in the bone marrow, altering the bone marrow microenvironment and promoting HSCs proliferation and differentiation into neutrophils. …”
