2 Figure 1 Isolation of MC lineage cells from the upper and HB regions. MC lineage cells were marked by crossing the Dcttm1(Cre)Bee and CAG-CAT-GFP strains. (a) Immunostaining of P10 dorsal skin with anti-GFP antibody. Arrowheads and asterisks represent GFP+ cells in LPP and HB. Small pieces of skin were isolated (b), divided into two parts, (c) and cultured after dissociation. Only cells from the upper region could proliferate (d). Dissociated PI− CD45−-gated cells from HFs were analyzed using FACS. GFP+ cells from the HB region were SSChighc-Kithigh and did not proliferate (f–h), whereas cells from the upper region were SSClowc-Kitlow and actively proliferated (i–k). (e) Wild-type control. The numbers in d, h, and k show cell density. Bar=200μm. APC-A, allophycocyanin area; CAG, cytomegalovirus early enhancer/chicken actin; FACS, fluorescent-activated cell sorter; FITC-A, fluorescein isothiocyanate area; GFP, green fluorescent protein; HB, hair bulb; HF, hair follicle; LPP, lower part of the permanent portion; MC, melanocyte; PI, propidium iodide; SSC, side scatter.

3 Figure 2 Characterization of MCs isolated from murine whole dorsal skin. Dissociated whole dorsal skin cells from P10 Dcttm1(Cre)Bee/CAG-CAT-GFP mice were stained with anti-c-Kit antibody and analyzed by FACS. (a, b) Division of GFP+ PI− CD45− cells into three populations by their levels of SSC and c-Kit expression. (c–e) Proliferation and differentiation of cells from the three populations after culture with SCF and bFGF. After 1 week, only GFP+SSClowKitlow cells (fraction I) proliferated (c, d) and differentiated to pigmented cells after the addition of SCF, α-MSH, and endothelin-3 (e). Bar=200μm. α-MSH, α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone; bFGF, basic fibroblast growth factor; CAG, cytomegalovirus early enhancer/chicken actin; FACS, fluorescent-activated cell sorter; GFP, green fluorescent protein; MC, melanocyte; PI, propidium iodide; SCF, stem cell factor; SSC, side scatter.

4 Figure 3 Survival and proliferation of undifferentiated ACK2-treated MCs. Dcttm1(Cre)Bee/CAG-CAT-GFP mice were treated with 0.2mg ACK2 or PBS on days 0, 2, and 4, and their P10 dorsal skin was analyzed. (a–f) Following ACK2 treatment, only GFP+SSClowKitlow cells survived. (g) ACK2-resistant cells proliferated during coculture with XB2. (h) Cell proliferation rates showing that ACK2-resistant cells had higher proliferative potential. (i–k) Clonogenic analysis of GFP+SSClowKitlow cells. Single cells isolated from ACK2-treated and -untreated mice were sorted into 96-well culture dishes and cultured. (i) Example of one well with proliferating cells. (j) Numbers of wells containing >20 cells. (k) Total number of cells per well. Bars represent standard deviations. Bar=200μm. CAG, cytomegalovirus early enhancer/chicken actin; FSC-H, forward scatter height; FSC-W, forward scatter width; GFP, green fluorescent protein; MC, melanocyte; PBS, phosphate-buffered saline; SSC, side scatter.

5 Figure 4 Hair reconstitution using cultured MCs. FACS-sorted MCSCs were cultured for 1 week and grafted into nude mice, along with epidermal cells and a dermal sheet from W/WV mice. The control was a graft from which MCs had been omitted. (b) Results of three independent experiments are shown in a (exp. 1–2, ACK2 treated; exp. 3, ACK2 non-treated). (c) After shaving and plucking, black hair grew again. (d, h) Hair area of c was stained with anti-GFP antibody (green). Panels e–g and i show magnification images of square regions in d and h. This result suggests that only in black hair areas MCSCs repopulated in the bulb, around the lower permanent portion and club hair. Bar=100μm. FACS, fluorescent-activated cell sorter; GFP, green fluorescent protein; MC, melanocyte; MCSC, MC stem cell.

6 Figure 5 Development of a FACS sorting method of undifferentiated melanocytes from GFP mice. (a) Analysis of GFP+SSClowKitlow cells by a combination of FSC-W and FSC-H. When compared with the PI− entire population, target cells were concentrated in the FSC-W-low small area. Dissociated P10 CAG-GFP mouse skin treated with (b) or without ACK2 (c) was stained with anti-c-Kit antibody. (d, f) Sorted cells were cultured and their rate of proliferation was calculated. (e) Differentiation of cultured cells after addition of SCF, α-MSH, and endothelin-3. (g) Reconstitution assay with cultured cells (exp. 1–2, ACK2 treated; exp. 3, ACK2 non-treated). (h, i) Clonogenic analyses showing the number of wells containing >20 cells (h) and the total number of cells per well (i). The bars represent mean±SD. Bar=200μm. α-MSH, α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone; CAG, cytomegalovirus early enhancer/chicken actin; FACS, fluorescent-activated cell sorter; FSC-H, forward scatter height; FSC-W, forward scatter width; GFP, green fluorescent protein; PI, propidium iodide; SCF, stem cell factor; SSC, side scatter.
