Orkin, Gerd A. Blobel, and Mitchell J. Weiss From Ontogeny, Inc, Cambridge, MA; the Division of Hematology-Oncology, Children's Hospital, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and the Department of Pediatrics, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA; the Department of Medicine, Committee on Immunology, University of Chicago, Chicago, IL; the Division of Hematology, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, Philadelphia, PA; and the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Boston, MA. The transcription factor GATA-1 is essential for normal erythropoiesis. By examining in vitro-differentiated embryonic stem cells, we showed previously that in the absence of GATA-1, committed erythroid precursors fail to complete maturation and instead undergo apoptosis. The mechanisms by which GATA-1 controls cell survival are unknown. Here we report that in erythroid cells, GATA-1 strongly induces the expression of the anti-apoptotic protein bcl-xL, but not the related proteins bcl-2 and mcl-1. Consistent with a role for bcl-xL in mediating GATA-1-induced erythroid cell survival, in vitro-differentiated bcl-xL/ embryonic stem cells fail to generate viable mature definitive erythroid cells, a phenotype resembling that of GATA-1 gene disruption. In addition, we show that erythropoietin, which is also required for erythroid cell survival, cooperates with GATA-1 to stimulate bcl-xL gene expression and to maintain erythroid cell viability during terminal maturation. Together, our data show that bcl-xL is essential for normal erythroid development and suggest a regulatory hierarchy in which bcl-xL is a critical downstream effector of GATA-1 and erythropoietin-mediated signals.
