Extended Data Fig. 9

a, Average percentage of the indicated cells per femur (normalized to numbers at day 0) at the indicated time points after infection of wild-type mice with L. monocytogenes. (n = 6 mice for days 0 and 2; n = 3 mice for day 4; n = 4 mice for day 6; n = 3 mice for day 8.) b, Histograms showing the distribution of distances from each MDP (green, n = 243 MDP from a total of 23 sternum sections from 15 uninfected wild-type mice and n = 37 MDPs from a total of 3 sternum sections from 3 wild-type mice 4 days after infection with L. monocytogenes), MOP (orange, n = 458 MOP from a total of 11 sternum sections from 11 uninfected wild-type mice and n = 377 MOPs from a total of 3 sternum sections from 3 wild-type mice 4 days after infection with L. monocytogenes) or GP (red, n = 338 GPs from a total of 15 sternum sections from 12 uninfected wild-type mice and n = 218 GPs from a total of 3 sternum sections from 3 wild-type mice 4 days after infection with L. monocytogenes) to the indicated progenitors 4 days after infection of wild-type mice with L. monocytogenes. c, Number of GPs or MOPs per cluster for the sternum sections analysed in b. Each dot represents a cluster; n = 17 GP clusters and n = 15 MOP clusters from 3 wild-type mice 4 days after infection with L. monocytogenes. d, Experimental design for in vivo fate map** using Ubc–creERT2:confetti mice. e, Percentage of GP or MOP clusters with at least one confetti-labelled GP or MOP that are monoclonal (all cells in the cluster are labelled in the same confetti colour) or oligoclonal (containing cells with at least two different origins: CFP+, YFP+, or no confetti label). Each dot represents a GP or MOP cluster from a total of three sternum segments from two confetti mice in two experiments four days after infection with L. monocytogenes. f, Representative images showing a cluster composed of MDP-derived Gfi1lo MOPs and GMP-derived Gfi1hi MOPs in Gfi1–tomato mice four days after infection with L. monocytogenes. Scale bar, 10 μm. g, Percentage of GMP-derived Gfi1hi MOPs (orange dots) or MDP-derived Gfi1lo MOPs (purple dots) per cluster (each dot represents one cluster; n = 15 clusters in a total of 3 sternum sections from 2 Gfi1–tomato mice 4 days after infection with L. monocytogenes). h, Quantification of CD117 expression in PNs of wild-type mice at the indicated time points after infection. (n = 6 mice for day 0; n = 8 mice for days 2 and 4; n = 5 mice for day 6; n = 4 mice for day 8 in total 8 experiments). One dot indicates one mouse. i, Map showing the location of Gfi1hi and Gfi1lo MOPs, MDPs, and Ly6Chi and Ly6Clo monocytes in a sternum segment from Gfi1–tomato mice four days after infection. Scale bar, 200 μm. j, Histograms showing the distribution of distances from each Gfi1hi (orange) and Gfi1lo (purple) MOP and MDP (green) to the indicated cells in uninfected wild-type mice or four days after infection with L. monocytogenes. The values for day 0 (d0) are the same as shown in Fig. 2g, i. (n = 113 Gfi1hi MOP and n = 72 Gfi1lo MOPs from a total of 3 sternum sections from 3 uninfected Gfi1-tomato mice; n = 155 Gfi1hi MOP and n = 144 Gfi1lo MOP from total 3 sternum sections of 2 Gfi1–tomato mice 4 days after infection with L. monocytogenes; MDPto Ly6Chi monocyte, n = 67 MDPs from a total of 6 sternum sections from 4 mice; MDP to Ly6Clo monocyte, n = 67 MDPs from a total of 6 sternum sections from 4 wild-type uninfected mice; MDP to cDC, n = 139 MDPs from a total of 11 sternum sections from 6 wild-type uninfected mice; and n = 32 MDPs from a total of 3 sternum sections from 3 wild-type mice 4 days after infection with L. monocytogenes.) k, Representative image showing lack of contribution of a confetti-labelled MOP. Tracked cells are YFP+, CFP+ or unlabelled CD117+ CD115+ CD11b Ly6C+ MOPs, CD117 CD115+ CD11b+ Ly6Chi monocytes and CD117 CD115+ CD11b+ Ly6Clo monocytes. Scale bar, 10 μm. l, Quantification of cell numbers for CFP (white) and CFP+ (blue) Ly6Chi monocytes (left) or Ly6Clo monocytes (right) found within the indicated distances to the closest CFP+ MOP cell in confetti mice four days after infection with L. monocytogenes. Each dot represents one CFP+ MOP from a total of eight sternum segments from two confetti mice in two experiments four days after infection. m, Representative images showing the lack of contribution of a confetti-labelled MDP to surrounding monocytes. Tracked cells are YFP+, CFP+ or unlabelled CD117+ CD115+ CD11b Ly6C MDPs, CD117+ CD115+ CD11b Ly6C+ MOPs, CD117 CD115+ CD11b+ Ly6Chi monocytes and CD117 CD115+ CD11b+ Ly6Clo monocytes. Scale bar, 20 μm. n, qPCR analyses showing Csf1 mRNA levels (normalized to not infected) in bone marrow endothelial cells FACS-purified from wild-type mice in the steady-state or four days after infection. n = a total of three uninfected mice and n = a total of three infected mice in two experiments. o, Histogram showing the distance from each MDP to the closest sinusoid in control (pool of Cre:Csf1+/−, Csf1+/− and Csf1fl/-) or Csf1ΔEC mice four days after infection. n = 58 MDPs from a total of 4 sternum sections from 3 control mice and n = 36 MDPs from a total of 4 sternum sections from 3 Csf1ΔEC mice. p, q, Maps (p) showing the location of the indicated cells; and histogram (q) showing the distance from each MDP to the closest Ly6Clo monocyte and cDC in control or Csf1ΔEC mice four days after infection. n = 51 MDPs from a total of 3 sternum sections of 3 control mice and n = 29 MDP from total 3 sternum sections of 3 Csf1ΔEC mice. r, Number of the indicated cells per femur in control or Csf1ΔEC mice 4 days after infection. Each dot indicates one mouse. n = 3 control and n = 3 Csf1ΔEC mice. Unless otherwise indicated, one dot represents one cell. Statistical differences were calculated using two-tailed Student’s t-tests; P values are shown.
