Acute and extended immune stimulation provokes conventional HSC markers. a Representative FACS plots, showing the staining of the LineagecKit+Sca1+ (LSK) compartment (left panels) and its dissection by CD150 and the Fgd5mCherry reporter (mC, right panels) under control conditions (top) and under acute (middle) and extended (bottom) pIC stimulation, 24 h post stimulation. b Quantification of the frequencies of indicated cell populations: Lineage-cKit+Sca1 (LK), Lineage-cKit+Sca1+ (LSK), LSKCD150+mC, and LSKCD150+mC+. Histograms indicate mean frequency and standard deviation from the bone-marrow mononuclear cells (% of total). c LSKCD150+mC+ are functional HSCs. Chimerism (% of gated CD45.2 cells) over time following acute or extended pIC-stimulated donors. Data are from at least five mice per histogram; *p< 0.05, **p< 0.01

Surface markers of acutely activated HSCs. a A heatmap of 75 differentially expressed (DE) surface markers (GO:0016021, of 435 DE genes) under control (PBS) conditions and 24 h after an acute pIC stimulation. b Representative FACS plots showing the expression of CD69 (x-axis) and CD317 (Bts2, y-axis) in control conditions (PBS; top panels) and 24 h after an acute pIC stimulation (bottom panels). Plots are shown for the Lineage-negative (Lin, left panels), LineagecKit+Sca1+ (LSK, middle panels), and LSKCD150+mCh+ (right panels) populations. c Quantification of the frequencies of indicated populations of CD69+CD317+ (green), CD317+CD69 (red), and CD69+CD317 (blue) cells. Histograms show averages and standard deviations of the control (PBS) and pIC-treated (Acute) cells; *p< 0.05, **p< 0.01
