The forced expression of Nanog or Esrrb allows preserve ESC status in the absence of nucleostemin expression
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Nucleostemin (NS) gene is known to be expressed in stem cells in general including embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Previous knockdown and knockout studies have demonstrated that NS is important for the preservation of their self-renewality and high levels of pluripotent marker gene expression in mouse ESCs. In this study, we demonstrate that the forced expression of Nanog or Esrrb, but not other pluripotency factors, made NS expression dispensable in mouse ESCs. DNA microarray data deposited here underscored the notion that both Nanog and Esrrb could rather faithfully counteract the alteration of gene expression profile caused by NS expression ablation in ESCs.
