Gene expression of TWIST1 and ZBTB16 is regulated by methylation modifications during the osteoblastic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells
24 Sept 2018
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Osteoblastic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) is the principal stage during the restoration and regeneration of bone tissue. Epigenetic modifications such as DNA methylation play a key role in the differentiation process of stem cells. In this study, the methylation status of the promoter region of ZBTB16 and Twist1 genes and their role in controlling osteoblastic differentiation in...
