abstract

objective(s): stem cell differentiation into different cell lineages depends upon several factors, cell cycle control elements and intracellular signaling elements, including p15ink4b and p16ink4a genes. epigenetics may be regarded as a control mechanism which is affected by these factors with respect to their promoter structure.   materials and methods: the cd34 + cord blood stem cells were purified, isolated and then expanded. the undifferentiated day genome was isolated from part of the cultured cells, and the seventh day differentiated genome was isolated from the other part after differentiation to erythroid lineage. the procedure was followed by a separate real-time pcr for the two genes using the obtained cdna. the processed dna of the former stages was used for msp (methylation specific pcr) reaction. finally, pre- and post differentiation results were compared. results: after performing msp for each gene, it became clear that p15ink4b gene has undergone methylation and expression in predifferentiation stage. in addition, its status has not been changed after differentiation. p15ink4b gene expression was reduced after the differentiation. the other gene, p16ink4a, showed no predifferentiation methylation. itwas completely expressed methylated and underwent reduced expression after differentiation. conclusion : specific predifferentiation expression of p15ink4b and p16ink4a genes along with reduction in their expression after erythroid differentiation indicated animportant role for these two genes in biology of cd34+ cells in primary stages and before differentiation. in addition, both genes are capable of epigenetic modifications due to the structure of their promoters.

Promoter Methylation and Gene Expression in Human CD34+ Stem Cells Derived Erythroid Lineage by MicroRNA

Background: Stem Cell differentiation is a process composed of vast variety of factors which are controlled by a network of certain mechanisms. This study aims to determine the possible role of DNA methylation, a potent regulator of VHL, ECAD and RUNX3 genes during Erythroid differentiation driven by miR-451. Materials and Methods: To determine the methylation status of promoters and the e...

Gene Expression and Promoter Methylation Status of VHL, Runx-3, E-cadherin, P15 and P16 Genes During EPO-Mediated Erythroid Differentiation of CD34+ Hematopoietic Stem Cells

Background: VHL (von Hippel-Lindau), Runx-3 (Runt-related transcription factor 3), E-cadherin (Epithelial cadherin), P15 (INK4a, cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor), and P16 (INK4b) genes are essential in hematopoiesis. The aim of this study was to explore the correlation between gene expression and promoter methylation in CD34+ stem cells before and after differentiation to erythroid lineage. ...
