Cord blood (CB) CD34+ cells have the potential to be used to achieve artificial hematopoiesis because of their ability to expand and differentiate in multiple directions. However, the mechanism and molecular changes underlying such differentiation are still unclear. The differentiation of CB CD34+ cells is generally driven by subtle changes in gene expression. A crucial method for examining gene expression is quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, but the accuracy of the results is dependent on the use of reliable reference genes. Here, the transcription levels of 10 novel candidate reference genes (EIF4G2,DYNC1H1,LUC7L3,CD46,POLR1D,WSB1,GAPVD1,HGS,LGALS8, andRBM5) and 8 traditional reference genes (GAPDH,YWHAZ,ACTB,B2MG,TBP,HMBS,PPIA,HPRT1) in CB CD34+ cells under different oxygen concentrations were screened and evaluated by using the geNorm and NormFinder algorithms. Comprehensive analysis conducted by RefFinder online tool showed thatTBP(a traditional reference gene) andEIF4G2(a novel reference gene) had the most stable expression, whereasGAPDHandHMBSwere the least suitable reference genes under these conditions. These results may serve as a basis for selecting reference genes with stable expression for more accurate normalization under different oxygen concentration stimulation during CB CD34+ cells differentiation.
