Embryonic stem cells can differentiate in vitro into hematopoietic cells through two intermediate stages; the first being FLK1+ E-cadherin- proximal lateral mesoderm and the second being CD45- VE-cadherin+ endothelial cells. To further dissect the CD45- VE-cadherin+ cells, we have examined distribution of alpha 4-integrin on this cell population, because alpha 4-integrin is the molecule expressed on hematopoietic stem cells. During culture of FLK1+ E-cadherin- cells, CD45- VE-cadherin+ alpha 4-integrin- cells differentiate first, followed by alpha 4-integrin+ cells appearing in both CD45- VE-cadherin+ and CD45- VE-cadherin- cell populations. In the CD45- VE-cadherin+ cell population, alpha 4-integrin+ subset but not alpha 4-integrin- subset had the potential to differentiate to hematopoietic lineage cells, whereas endothelial cell progenitors were present in both subsets. The CD45- VE-cadherin- alpha 4-integrin+ cells also showed hematopoietic potential. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analyses showed that differential expression of the Gata2 and Myb genes correlated with the potential of the alpha 4-integrin+ cells to give rise to hematopoietic cell differentiation. Hematopoietic CD45- VE-cadherin+ alpha 4-integrin+ cells were also present in the yolk sac and embryonic body proper of 9.5 day postcoitum mouse embryos. Our results suggest that the expression of alpha 4-integrin is a marker of the earliest precursor of hematopoietic cell lineage that was diverged from endothelial progenitors.
