Background: Identification of regulators for aging-associated stem cell (SC) dysfunctions is a critical topic in SC biology and SC-based therapies. Periodontal ligament stem cell (PDLSC), a kind of dental mesenchymal SC with dental regeneration potential, ages with functional deterioration in both in vivo and ex vivo expansion. However, little is known about regulators for PDLSC aging.Methods: Expression changes of a potential regulator for PDLSC aging, histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6), were evaluated within various models. Senescence-associated phenotypic and functional alternations of PDLSC in loss-of-function models for HDAC6 were examined using HDAC6-specific pharmacologic inhibitors or RNA interference-based knockdown. Involvement of p27(Kip1) in HDAC6-associated aging was demonstrated by its acetylation and stability changes along with overexpression or functional inhibition of HDAC6.Results: Expression of HDAC6 decreased significantly in replicative senescence and induced SC aging models. Loss-of-function experiments suggested that pharmacologic inhibition of deacetylase activity of HDAC6 accelerated PDLSC senescence and impaired its SC activities, which showed reduced osteogenic differentiation and diminished migration capacities. Examination of markers for proliferative exhaustion of SCs revealed that protein level of p27(Kip1) was specifically elevated after HDAC6 inhibition. HDAC6 physically interacted with p27(Kip1) and could deacetylate p27(Kip1). Importantly, acetylation of p27(Kip1) was negatively regulated by HDAC6, which correlated with alteration of p27(Kip1) protein levels.Conclusion: Data suggest that HDAC6 plays an important role in PDLSC aging, which is dependent, at least partially, on regulation of p27(Kip1) acetylation.
