项目摘要

ES cells have potentials to convert to any types of cells in the body when cells are induced to differentiate. Furthermore, as one of remarkable properties discriminating from other types of cells, these cells can propagate indefinitely when the cells are cultured under appropriate conditions. Because of these properties, one can expect that ES cells can be unlimited supplier for many types of differentiated cells which can be used for patients' treatment. However, as an unwanted property, ES cells produce tumor when the cells are introduced into body, albeit this property is restricted to pluripotent state ES cells. It is definitely important to understand the various remarkable properties of ES cells in molecular levels before performing clinical use of these cells. UTF1 is one of genes whose expression is restricted to pluripotent sate of ES cells. We have previously demonstrated from the analyses using Oct-3/4 and Oct-6 that UTF1 is involve in rapid growth and tumorigenic properties of ES cell, while other group suggested from experiments with RNAi that UTF1 is important for cell differentiation. However, these data were obtained either from ES cells which are under non-physiological conditions or knock down experiments which may knock down unexpected gene expression as well as that of UTF1 gene, we decided to examine the role of UTF1 in ES cells by generating UTF1 null ES cells. Our data implicate that UTF1 gene can be disrupted homozygously without affecting any ES cell-specific properties significantly.

当细胞被诱导分化时，ES细胞有可能转化为体内任何类型的细胞。此外，作为区别于其他类型细胞的显着特性之一，当细胞在适当的条件下培养时，这些细胞可以无限增殖。由于这些特性，人们可以预期ES细胞可以无限地供应多种类型的分化细胞，用于患者的治疗。然而，作为一种不需要的特性，ES细胞在被引入体内时会产生肿瘤，尽管这种特性仅限于多能状态的ES细胞。在临床使用这些细胞之前，在分子水平上了解 ES 细胞的各种显着特性绝对是重要的。 UTF1是其表达仅限于ES细胞多能状态的基因之一。我们之前通过Oct-3/4和Oct-6的分析证明UTF1参与ES细胞的快速生长和致瘤特性，而其他小组通过RNAi实验表明UTF1对于细胞分化很重要。然而，这些数据要么来自非生理条件下的ES细胞，要么来自可能敲低意外基因表达以及UTF1基因表达的敲除实验，我们决定通过生成UTF1无效ES细胞来检查UTF1在ES细胞中的作用。我们的数据表明，UTF1 基因可以被纯合性破坏，而不会显着影响任何 ES 细胞特异性特性。
