POU2AF1 promotes MSCs adipogenesis by inhibiting HDAC1 expression.

ABSTRACT: Excessive production of visceral adipose is a major risk factor of many diseases. Inhibiting the adipogenesis of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) will be an efficient way to block adipose production. We illuminated POU class 2 homeobox associating factor 1 (POU2AF1) may promote MSCs adipogenesis by histone deacetylases 1 (HDAC1) signalling. Human retroperitoneal adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells were isolated from overweight and control groups of patients. IncRNA microarray was used to identified gene expression levels. Adenovirus transduction and cellular small-interfering RNA transfection were used to achieve overexpression and interference of POU2AF1 or HDAC1. Adipogenesis was identified by Oil-red O staining, triglycende, cholesterol assay, real-time PCR and Western Blot. POU2AF1 expression was upregulated in retroperitoneal adipose tissue of overweight patients, and increased during adipogenesis. Overexpression of POU2AF1 promoted spontaneous adipogenesis without adipogenic treatment. Silencing of endogenous POU2AF1 in MSCs inhibited adipogenesis. Overexpression of POU2AF1 alleviated the translocation of HDAC1 to the nucleus. The mRNA level of HDAC1 was also reduced. Co-transfection of Ad-POU2AF1 and Ad-HDAC1 partially reversed the promotion effect of POU2AF1 overexpression in MSCs spontaneous adipogenic differentiation. POU2AF1 involves in the natural differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells. Overexpression or silencing POU2AF1 could effectively induce or inhibit the adipogenesis by HDAC1 signaling.

Project description:BackgroundRecent studies have shown that activated pyroptosis in atopic dermatitis (AD) switches inflammatory processes and causes abnormal cornification and epidermal barrier dysfunction. Little research has focused on the interaction mechanism between pyroptosis-related genes and human keratinocyte differentiation.MethodsThe AD dataset from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) was used to identify differently expressed pyroptosis-related genes (DEPRGs). Hub genes were identified and an enrichment analysis was performed to select epithelial development-related genes. Lesions of AD patients were detected via immunohistochemistry (IHC) to verify the hub gene. Human keratinocytes cell lines, gasdermin D (GSDMD) overexpression, Caspase1 siRNA, Histone Deacetylase1 (HDAC1) siRNA, and HDAC1 overexpression vectors were used for gain-and-loss-of-function experiments. Regulation of cornification protein was determined by qPCR, western blot (WB), immunofluorescence (IF), dual-luciferase reporter assay, co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP), and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP).ResultsA total of 27 DEPRGs were identified between either atopic dermatitis non-lesional skin (ANL) and healthy control (HC) or atopic dermatitis lesional skin (AL) and HC. The enrichment analysis showed that these DEPRGs were primarily enriched in the inflammatory response and keratinocytes differentiation. Of the 10 hub genes identified via the protein-protein interaction network, only GSDMD was statistically and negatively associated with the expression of epithelial tight junction core genes. Furthermore, GSDMD was upregulated in AD lesions and inhibited human keratinocyte differentiation by reducing filaggrin (FLG) expression. Mechanistically, GSDMD activated by Caspase1 reduced FLG expression via HDAC1. HDAC1 decreased FLG expression by reducing histone acetylation at the FLG promoter. In addition, GSDMD blocked the interaction of Potassium Channel Tetramerization Domain Containing 6 (KCTD6) and HDAC1 to prohibit HDAC1 degradation.ConclusionThis study revealed that GSDMD was upregulated in AD lesions and that GSDMD regulated keratinocytes via epigenetic modification, which might provide potential therapeutic targets for AD.
