• The genesis of the hair follicle relies on signals derived from mesenchymal cells in the dermis during skin morphogenesis and regeneration. Multipotent skin-derived precursors (SKPs), which exhibit long term proliferation potential when being cultured in spheroids, have been shown to induce hair genesis and hair follicle regeneration in mice, implying a therapeutic potential of SKPs in hair follicle regeneration and bioengineering. However, the hair-inductive property of SKPs declines progressively upon ex vivo culture expansion, suggesting that the expressions of the genes responsible for hair induction are epigenetically unstable. In this study, we found that TSA markedly alleviated culture expansion induced SKP senescence, increased the expression and activity of alkaline phosphatase (AP) in the cells and importantly restored the hair inductive capacity of SKPs. TSA increased the acetylation level of histone H3, including the K19/14 sites in the promoter regions of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) genes, which were associated with elevated gene expression and BMP signaling activity, suggesting a potential attribution of BMP pathway in TSA induced recovery of the hair inductive capacity of SKPs.
