The microbiota engages in the development and maintenance of the host immune system. The microbiota affects not only mucosal tissues where it localizes but also the distal organs. Myeloid cells are essential for host defense as first responders of the host immune system. Their generation, called myelopoiesis, is regulated by environmental signals, including commensal microbiota. Hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells in bone marrow can directly or indirectly sense microbiota-derived signals, thereby giving rise to myeloid cell lineages at steady-state and during inflammation. In this review, we discuss the role of commensal microorganisms in the homeostatic regulation of myelopoiesis in the bone marrow. We also outline the effects of microbial signals on myelopoiesis during inflammation and infection, with a particular focus on the development of innate immune memory. Studying the relationship between the microbiota and myelopoiesis will help us understand how the microbiota regulates immune responses at a systemic level beyond the local mucosa.

Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is an important therapy for many hematological malignancies as well as some non-malignant diseases. Post-transplant hematopoiesis is affected by multiple factors, and the mechanisms of delayed post-transplant hematopoiesis remain poorly understood. Patients undergoing HCT often suffer from significantly reduced food intake due to complications induced by preconditioning treatments.

Innate immune memory endows innate immune cells with antigen independent heightened responsiveness to subsequent challenges. The durability of this response can be mediated by inflammation induced epigenetic and metabolic reprogramming in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) that are maintained through differentiation to mature immune progeny. Understanding the mechanisms and extent of trained immunity induction by pathogens and vaccines, such as BCG, in HSPC remains a critical area of exploration with important implications for health and disease.

Neutrophilic inflammation is a pervasive characteristic common to spondyloarthropathies and related disorders. This inflammation manifests as Munro's microabscesses of the skin and osteoarticular neutrophilic inflammation in patients with psoriatic arthritis, intestinal crypt abscesses in patients with inflammatory bowel disease, ocular hypopyon in anterior uveitis, and neutrophilic macroscopic and microscopic inflammation in patients with Behçet's disease. Strong MHC class I associations are seen in these diseases, which represent so-called MHC-I-opathies, and these associations indicate an involvement of CD8 T-cell immunopathology that is not yet well understood.

Metabolic products of the microbiota can alter hematopoiesis. However, the contribution and site of action of bile acids is poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that the secondary bile acids, deoxycholic acid (DCA) and lithocholic acid (LCA), increase bone marrow myelopoiesis.
