Abstract
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) technology holds great potential in both scientific research and clinical applications. It enables the generation of naïve and primed iPSCs from various cell types through different strategies. Despite extensive characterizations of transcriptional and epigenetic factors, the intricacies of chromatin landscape dynamics during naïve and primed reprogramming, particularly in humans, remain poorly understood. In this study, we employed ATAC-seq and RNA-seq analyses to delineate and compare the chromatin landscape of naïve and primed pluripotency through the human secondary reprogramming system. Our investigations revealed several key transcriptional and epigenetic factors pivotal for reprogramming-associated chromatin remodeling. Notably, we found two isoforms of PRDM1, PRDM1α, and PRDM1β, bind to distinct genomic loci and play different roles in the naïve reprogramming process. We proposed an auto-regulatory model explaining the distinct functions of PRDM1α and PRDM1β. Overall, our findings highlight the complexity and diversity of transcription factors in shaping chromatin landscape dynamics and directing the fates of pluripotent cells.
期刊介绍:
Cell Death Discovery is a multidisciplinary, international, online-only, open access journal, dedicated to publishing research at the intersection of medicine with biochemistry, pharmacology, immunology, cell biology and cell death, provided it is scientifically sound. The unrestricted access to research findings in Cell Death Discovery will foster a dynamic and highly productive dialogue between basic scientists and clinicians, as well as researchers in industry with a focus on cancer, neurobiology and inflammation research. As an official journal of the Cell Death Differentiation Association (ADMC), Cell Death Discovery will build upon the success of Cell Death & Differentiation and Cell Death & Disease in publishing important peer-reviewed original research, timely reviews and editorial commentary.
Cell Death Discovery is committed to increasing the reproducibility of research. To this end, in conjunction with its sister journals Cell Death & Differentiation and Cell Death & Disease, Cell Death Discovery provides a unique forum for scientists as well as clinicians and members of the pharmaceutical and biotechnical industry. It is committed to the rapid publication of high quality original papers that relate to these subjects, together with topical, usually solicited, reviews, editorial correspondence and occasional commentaries on controversial and scientifically informative issues.
