Histone deacetylase inhibitor sodium butyrate (NaBu) can induce G(0)/G(1) arrest and erythroid differentiation in K562 cells, but the molecular mechanisms underlying this process are unclear. Here we show that both p18(INK4C) mRNA and protein levels were upregulated during K562 cell erythroid differentiation induced by NaBu. Moreover, the NaBu activation of p18(INK4C) was dependent on the integrity of Sp1 clusters in the promoter. NaBu caused hyperacetylation of histones H3 and H4 on endogenous p18(INK4C) promoter and enhanced binding of transcription factor Sp1 in vivo. Also, overexpression of p18(INK4C) in K562 cells resulted in G(0)/G(1) arrest and partial erythroid differentiation. Our results suggested that NaBumediated p18(INK4C) regulation played a role in cell cycle arrest and erythroid differentiation in K562 cells.
