Histone deacetylase inhibition elicits an evolutionarily conserved self-renewal program in embryonic stem cells.

چکیده
Recent evidence indicates that mouse and human embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are fixed at different developmental stages, with the former positioned earlier. We show that a narrow concentration of the naturally occurring short-chain fatty acid, sodium butyrate, supports the extensive self-renewal of mouse and human ESCs, while promoting their convergence toward an intermediate stem cell state. In response to butyrate, human ESCs regress to an earlier developmental stage characterized by a gene expression profile resembling that of mouse ESCs, preventing precocious Xist expression while retaining the ability to form complex teratomas in vivo. Other histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) also support human ESC self-renewal. Our results indicate that HDACi can promote ESC self-renewal across species, and demonstrate that ESCs can toggle between alternative states in response to environmental factors.

Suppression of HIF-1α by Valproic Acid Sustains Self-Renewal of Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells under Hypoxia In Vitro
The developing embryo naturally experiences relatively low oxygen conditions in vivo. Under in vitro hypoxia, mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) lose their self-renewal activity and display an early differentiated morphology mediated by the hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α). Previously, we demonstrated that histone deacetylase (HDAC) is activated by hypoxia and increases the protein stabilit...
متن کاملEvaluation of the role of mico-RNAs in cardiomyocytes differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells
Stem cells are a good alternative for regenerative medicine because of their characteristics such as self-renewal and differentiation potential. They are classified into different types of stem cells including embryonic stem cells, induced pluripotent stem cells, multipotent stem cells, and ultimately uni-potent stem cells. Mesenchymal stem cells extracted from adult tissues. Due to the lack of...
متن کاملHDAC1 regulates pluripotency and lineage specific transcriptional networks in embryonic and trophoblast stem cells
Epigenetic regulation of gene expression is important in maintaining self-renewal of embryonic stem (ES) and trophoblast stem (TS) cells. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) negatively control histone acetylation by removing covalent acetylation marks from histone tails. Because histone acetylation is a known mark for active transcription, HDACs presumably associate with inactive genes. Here, we used ...

Purpose: The aim is to downregulate the expression level of NS as an important factor in sustaining stem cells and certain types of cancer cells self-renewal ability in bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells by RNAi strategy and investigate the effects of absence of NS in these cells. Materials and Methods: Double strand NS-specific and control siRNA oligos were designed and transfected in...
متن کاملDepletion of γ-catenin by Histone Deacetylase Inhibition Confers Elimination of CML Stem Cells in Combination with Imatinib
Quiescent leukemia stem cells (LSCs) that are insensitive to BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase inhibitors confer resistance to imatinib in chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). Identifying proteins to regulate survival and stemness of LSCs is urgently needed. Although histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis) can eliminate quiescent LSCs in CML, little is known about the underlying mechanism that HDACis kill...
