The C-type lectin domain family 12, member A (CLEC12A) receptor has emerged as a leukaemia-associated and cancer stem cell marker in myeloid malignancies. However, a detailed delineation of its expression in normal haematopoiesis is lacking. Here, we have characterized the expression pattern of CLEC12A on the earliest stem- and myeloid progenitor subsets in normal bone marrow. We demonstrate distinct CLEC12A expression in the classically defined myeloid progenitors, where on average 39.1% (95% CI [32.5;45.7]) of the common myeloid progenitors (CMPs) expressed CLEC12A, while for granulocyte-macrophage progenitors and megakaryocyte-erythroid progenitors (MEPs), the average percentages were 81.0% (95% CI [76.0;85.9]) and 11.9% (95% CI [9.3;14.6]), respectively. In line with the reduced CLEC12A expression on MEPs, functional assessment of purified CLEC12A +/− CMPs and MEPs in the colony-forming unit assay demonstrated CLEC12A + subsets to favour non-erythroid colony growth. In conclusion, we provide evidence that the earliest CLEC12A + cell in the haematopoietic tree is the classically defined CMP. Furthermore, we show that CLEC12A-expressing CMPs and MEPs are functionally different than their negative counterparts. Importantly, these data can help determine which cells will be spared during CLEC12A-targeted therapy, and we propose CLEC12A to be included in future studies of myeloid cancer stem cell biology.
