Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aims to determine molecular mechanisms through which transcriptional regulators that are required for skeletal formation regulate differentiation of skeletal progenitors. Chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) and expression profiling in mouse primary osteoblasts and chondrocytes identified binding regions and target genes of the regulators in a genome-wide manner. Bioinformatic analyses of the data set provided genome-wide evidences for modes of action of each factor and its biological significance. These findings may help us understand mechanisms underlying the regulation of skeletal formation and lead to basic knowledge to achieve skeletal regenerative medicine.
