Description
Because insufficiency of the Runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2) limits skeletal growth, there is a great deal of effort to activate Runx2 for clinical use. In this study, we found that MS-275, the class I-specific HDAC inhibitor, activates Runx2 both transcriptionally and translationally. Therefore, we performed NGS analysis to gain accurate patterns of gene expression in mouse calvaria tissue through MS-275 administration. As a result, we could get insight that treatment of MS-275 increases genes related with osteoblast differentiation and cell proliferation, and decreases genes in field of causing apoptosis. Overall design: Mice calvarial mRNA profiles of embryonic day 17.5 wild type (WT) and Runx2+/- mice were generated by deep sequencing using Illumina NextSeq 500. Mice were administered MS-275 or vehicle. Three replicates per group.
