Abstract

To study the regulation of SIRT1 by transcription factor SREBP-1 in adipogeneic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSC). Oil red O staining was used to identify the adipogenic differentiation of BMMSC; the mRNA transcription levels of AP2, LPL, SREBF-1, SIRT1 gene were detected by RT-PCR; the expession level of SREBP-1 was determined by Western-blot. The chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay was used to investigate the binding of SREBP-1 to SIRT1 promoter. BMMSC exposed to adipogenesis inducing medium become mature adipocytes at day 14; the mRNA transcription levels of AP2, LPL, SREBF-1, SIRT1 genes were up-regulated in adipocyte differentiation of BMMSC; the protein level of SREBP-1 was higher obviously; SIRT1 gene sequences was succesfully amplified from the genomic DNA immunoprecipitated by SREBP-1 antibody. SREBP-1 can bind to the promoter region of the SIRT1 gene in adipogenesis of BMMSC, and may be involved in the transcriptional regulation of the SIRT1 gene.
