Autoregulation of mouse histone deacetylase 1 expression.

ABSTRACT: Histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) is a major regulator of chromatin structure and gene expression. Tight control of HDAC1 expression is essential for development and normal cell cycle progression. In this report, we analyzed the regulation of the mouse HDAC1 gene by deacetylases and acetyltransferases. The murine HDAC1 promoter lacks a TATA box consensus sequence but contains several putative SP1 binding sites and a CCAAT box, which is recognized by the transcription factor NF-Y. HDAC1 promoter-reporter studies revealed that the distal SP1 site and the CCAAT box are crucial for HDAC1 promoter activity and act synergistically to constitute HDAC1 promoter activity. Furthermore, these sites are essential for activation of the HDAC1 promoter by the deacetylase inhibitor trichostatin A (TSA). Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays showed that HDAC1 is recruited to the promoter by SP1 and NF-Y, thereby regulating its own expression. Coexpression of acetyltransferases elevates HDAC1 promoter activity when the SP1 site and the CCAAT box are intact. Increased histone acetylation at the HDAC1 promoter region in response to TSA treatment is dependent on binding sites for SP1 and NF-Y. Taken together, our results demonstrate for the first time the autoregulation of a histone-modifying enzyme in mammalian cells.

Project description:Histone deacetylases (HDACs) play important roles in glial cell development and in disease states within multiple regions of the central nervous system. However, little is known about HDAC expression or function within the optic nerve. As a first step in understanding the role of HDACs in optic nerve, this study examines the spatio-temporal expression patterns of methylated histone 3 (K9), acetylated histone 3 (K18), and HDACs 1-6 and 8-11 in the developing murine optic nerve head.Using RT-qPCR, western blot and immunofluorescence, three stages were analyzed: embryonic day 16 (E16), when astrocyte precursors are found in the optic stalk, postnatal day 5 (P5), when immature astrocytes and oligodendrocytes are found throughout the optic nerve, and P30, when optic nerve astrocytes and oligodendrocytes are mature. Acetylated and methylated histone H3 immunoreactivity was co-localized in the nuclei of most SOX2 positive glia within the optic nerve head and adjacent optic nerve at all developmental stages. HDACs 1-11 were expressed in the optic nerve glial cells at all three stages of optic nerve development in the mouse, but showed temporal differences in overall levels and subcellular localization. HDACs 1 and 2 were predominantly nuclear throughout optic nerve development and glial cell maturation. HDACs 3, 5, 6, 8, and 11 were predominantly cytoplasmic, but showed nuclear localization in at least one stage of optic nerve development. HDACs 4, 9 and10 were predominantly cytoplasmic, with little to no nuclear expression at any time during the developmental stages examined.Our results showing that HDACs 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, and 11 were each localized to the nuclei of SOX2 positive glia at some stages of optic nerve development and maturation and extend previous reports of HDAC expression in the aging optic nerve. These HDACs are candidates for further research to understand how chromatin remodeling through acetylation, deacetylation and methylation contributes to glial development as well as their injury response.
