Potential role of histone deacetylases in the development of the chick and murine retina

Saha, Ankita 04 September 2014 (has links)
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / The epigenetic state of any cell is, in part, regulated by the interaction of DNA with nuclear histones. Histone tails can be modified in a number of ways that impact on the availability of DNA to interact with transcriptional complexes, including methylation, acetylation, phosphorylation, ubiquituination, and sumoylation. Histones are acetylated by a large family of enzymes, histone acetyl transferases (HATs), and deacetylated by the histone deacetylases (HDACs). Acetylated histones are generally considered markers of genomic regions that are actively being transcribed, whereas deacetylated and methylated histones are generally markers of regions that are inactive. The goal of the present study was to 1) study the epigenetic state with regard to the presence of euchromatin and heterochromatin in the developing chick and murine retina, 2) study and compare the localization patterns of the classical HDACs in the developing chick and murine retina with respect retinal progenitors and early differentiated cell types 3) to test the hypothesis that overall HDAC activity is required for dividing retinal progenitors to leave the cell cycle and differentiate. Our results showed that the classical HDACs were ubiquitously expressed in the developing chick and murine retinas. Species specific differences as well as stage dependent variations were observed in the localization of the HDACs in the cell types that were studied in the chick and murine retina. Our preliminary results also showed that HDAC inhibition may lead to the inability of the cell types to leave the cell cycle and a subsequent increase in the number of progenitor cells present in the developing chick retina.
