Abstract

Enamel formation is a serial and complex biological process, during which related genes are expressed progressively in a spatiotemporal manner. This process is vulnerable to environmental cues, resulting in developmental defects of enamel (DDE). However, how environmental factors are biologically integrated during enamel formation is still poorly understood. Here, we investigated the mechanism of DDE elicited by a model endocrine-disrupting chemical, bisphenol A (BPA), in mouse incisors. We show that BPA exposure leads to DDE in mouse incisors, as well as excessive proliferation in dental epithelial stem/progenitor cells. Western blotting, chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing, and immunofluorescence staining revealed that this effect was accompanied by upregulation of a repressive mark, H3K27me3, in the labial cervical loop of mouse incisors. Perturbation of H3K27me3 methyltransferase EZH2 repressed the level of H3K27me3 and partially attenuated the excessive proliferation in dental epithelial stem/progenitor cells and DDE induced by BPA exposure. Overall, our results demonstrate the essential role of repressive histone modification H3K27me3 in DDE elicited by exposure to an endocrine-disrupting chemical.

摘要

釉质形成是一个连续而复杂的生物学过程,在此过程中相关基因以时空方式逐步表达。这一过程易受环境线索的影响,导致釉质发育缺陷(DDE)。然而,环境因素如何在釉质形成过程中进行生物学整合仍知之甚少。在这里,我们研究了模型内分泌干扰化学物质双酚 A(BPA)在小鼠切牙中引发 DDE 的机制。我们发现 BPA 暴露会导致小鼠切牙中的 DDE 以及牙上皮干细胞/祖细胞的过度增殖。Western blot、染色质免疫沉淀测序和免疫荧光染色显示,这种效应伴随着小鼠切牙唇颈环中抑制性标记 H3K27me3 的上调。干扰 H3K27me3 甲基转移酶 EZH2 抑制了 H3K27me3 的水平,并部分减弱了 BPA 暴露引起的牙上皮干细胞/祖细胞的过度增殖和 DDE。总的来说,我们的研究结果表明,抑制性组蛋白修饰 H3K27me3 在暴露于内分泌干扰化学物质引起的 DDE 中起着重要作用。
