Chemical genetics of regeneration: Contrasting temporal effects of CoCl2 on axolotl tail regeneration.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Background
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) regulate transcriptional responses to injury stimuli that are critical for successful tissue regeneration. Previously we showed that HDAC inhibitor romidepsin potently inhibits axolotl tail regeneration when applied for only 1-minute postamputation (MPA).Results
Here we tested CoCl2, a chemical that induces hypoxia and cellular stress, for potential to reverse romidepsin inhibition of tail regeneration. Partial rescue of regeneration was observed among embryos co-treated with romidepsin and CoCl2 for 1 MPA, however, extending the CoCl2 dosage window either inhibited regeneration (CoCl2 :0 to 30 MPA) or was lethal (CoCl2 :0 to 24 hours postamputation; HPA). CoCl2 :0 to 30 MPA caused tissue damage, tissue loss, and cell death at the distal tail tip, while CoCl2 treatment of non-amputated embryos or CoCl2 :60 to 90 MPA treatment after re-epithelialization did not inhibit tail regeneration. CoCl2 -romidepsin:1 MPA treatment partially restored expression of transcription factors that are typical of appendage regeneration, while CoCl2 :0 to 30 MPA significantly increased expression of genes associated with cell stress and inflammation. Additional experiments showed that CoCl2 :0 to 1 MPA and CoCl2 :0 to 30 MPA significantly increased levels of glutathione and reactive oxygen species, respectively.Conclusion
Our study identifies a temporal window from tail amputation to re-epithelialization, within which injury activated cells are highly sensitive to CoCl2 perturbation of redox homeostasis.
