Prohibitin 2 regulates the proliferation and lineage-specific differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells in mitochondria.
<h4>Background</h4>The pluripotent state of embryonic stem (ES) cells is controlled by a network of specific transcription factors. Recent studies also suggested the significant contribution of mitochondria on the regulation of pluripotent stem cells. However, the molecules involved in t...

PHB2 was highly expressed in undifferentiated mouse ES cells, and the expression was decreased during the differentiation of ES cells. Knockdown of PHB2 induced significant apoptosis in pluripotent ES cells, whereas enhanced expression of PHB2 contributed to the proliferation of ES cells.

Interestingly, only PHB2 with intact mitochondrial targeting signal showed these specific effects on ES cells. Moreover, overexpression of PHB2 enhanced the processing of a dynamin-like GTPase (OPA1) that regulates mitochondrial fusion and cristae remodeling, which could induce partial dysfunction of mitochondria.<h4>Conclusions/significance</h4>Our results suggest that PHB2 is a crucial mitochondrial regulator for homeostasis and lineage-specific differentiation of ES cells.Megumi KownoKanako Watanabe-SusakiHisako IshimineShinji KomazakiKei EnomotoYasuhiro SekiYing Ying WangYohei IshigakiNaoto NinomiyaTaka-aki K NoguchiYuko KokubuKeigoh OhnishiYoshiro NakajimaKaoru KatoAtsushi IntohHitomi TakadaNorio YamakawaPi-Chao WangMakoto AsashimaAkira KurisakiPublic Library of Science (PLoS)articleMedicineRScienceQENPLoS ONE, Vol 9, Iss 4, p e81552 (2014) |
