Popis: | Aberrant epigenetic reprogramming is one of the major barriers for somatic cell reprogramming. Although our previous study has indicated that H3K27me3 demethylase KDM6A can improve the nuclear reprogramming efficiency, the mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we demonstrate that the overexpression of Kdm6a may improve induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) reprogramming efficiency in a demethylase enzymatic activity-dependent manner. KDM6A erased H3K27me3 on pluripotency- and metabolism-related genes, and consequently facilitated changing the gene expression profile and metabolic pattern to an intermediate state. Furthermore, KDM6A may promote IL-6 expression, and the secreted IL-6 may further improve iPSC reprogramming efficiency. In addition, KDM6A may promote PTEN expression to decrease p-AKT and p-mTOR levels, which in turn facilitates reprogramming. Overall, our results reveal that KDM6A may promote iPSC reprogramming efficiency by accelerating changes in the gene expression profile and the metabolic pattern in a demethylation-activity-dependent manner. These results may provide an insight into the relationship between epigenomics, transcriptomics, metabolomics, and reprogramming. |
