Histone deacetylases play key roles in the regulation of gene transcription. Studies have shown that expression of interleukins IL-2 and IL-8, and insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) are affected by treatment with histone deacetylase inhibitors. We have previously shown that the gene for histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) is upregulated following treatment with TSA. The murine homologue of this gene has been reported to be inducible by IL-2. In this study, we have examined the effects IL-2, IGF-II and TSA have on HDAC1 expression in the human hepatocellular carcinoma derived cell line Hep3B. Our results indicate that in contrast to the mouse, HDAC1 is not inducible by IL-2. However, in TSA treated cells, IL-2 and IGF-II were found to act synergistically to reduce TSA induced HDAC1 mRNA levels almost to normal.
组蛋白去乙酰化酶在基因转录调控中起关键作用。研究表明,白细胞介素IL-2和IL-8以及胰岛素样生长因子2(IGF2)的表达受组蛋白去乙酰化酶抑制剂处理的影响。我们之前已经表明,用曲古抑菌素A(TSA)处理后,组蛋白去乙酰化酶1(HDAC1)基因会上调。据报道,该基因的小鼠同源物可被IL-2诱导。在本研究中,我们检测了IL-2、IGF-II和TSA对人肝癌衍生细胞系Hep3B中HDAC1表达的影响。我们的结果表明,与小鼠不同,HDAC1不能被IL-2诱导。然而,在经TSA处理的细胞中,发现IL-2和IGF-II具有协同作用,可将TSA诱导的HDAC1 mRNA水平降低至几乎正常。
