ABSTRACT: Steroid-induced avascular necrosis of the femoral head (SANFH) is closely associated with the imbalance between adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). Additionally, epigenetic regulation plays a critical role in this process. Our previous research found that during BMSC adipogenic differentiation, C/EBPα enhances the histone H3K27 acetylation modification at the PPARγ promoter, promoting sustained adipogenic differentiation of BMSCs, suggesting that Histone deacetylases (HDACs) may play an important role in BMSC adipogenic differentiation. However, identifying specific HDAC target genes requires further investigation. This study combines cell experiments with clinical specimen experiments to screen specific HDAC genes involved in BMSC adipogenic differentiation and explore their preliminary functions. Our findings indicate that HDAC10 influences the progression of steroid-induced avascular necrosis of the femoral head by regulating BMSC adipogenic differentiation, possibly through its association with PPARγ histone acetylation. These discoveries provide promising directions for the treatment of steroid-induced avascular necrosis of the femoral head.
