Abstract: Objective:To evaluate the effect of histone deacetylase 8 (HDAC8) on osteoblast differentiation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). Methods:Rat BMSCs were isolated and cultured by the method of whole bone marrow adherent and transfected with HDAC8 overexpression lentiviral vector. Real-time PCR, Western blot were applied to estimate the change of osteogenic capacity after 7 days of osteogenic induction and Alizarin red stain was used to estimate the mineralization capacity after 14 days of osteogenic induction. Trichostatin A (TSA), one kind of histone deacetylase inhibitor, acted on BMSCs with HDAC8 overexpression and the change of osteogenic capacity of cells after 7 days of osteogenic induction was estimated by real-time PCR and Western blot. Results:For BMSCs with HDAC8 overexpression, the expression of osteogenesis-related genes at mRNA and protein levels were all lower than those in control group after 7 days of ostogenic induction and the capacity to form calcified nodules was lower than that of the control group after 14 days of ostogenic induction. The osteogenesis-related genes expression of BMSCs with HDAC8 overexpression which was treated with TSA were all higher than those in untreated group after 7 days of ostogenic induction (P<0.05). Conclusions:HDAC8 could suppress osteogenic differentiation of rat BMSCs.
