Phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase positively regulates the proliferation of chicken muscle cells.

ABSTRACT: Phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH) is the rate-limiting enzyme in the serine synthesis pathway. However, the regulatory role of PHGDH in muscle development is unclear. We report that the expression of PHGDH increased significantly during proliferation of chicken skeletal muscle satellite cells. Knockdown of PHGDH by an siRNA suppressed myoblast proliferation, whereas overexpression of PHGDH enhanced muscle cell proliferation. Furthermore, PHGDH promoted the expression of Forkhead box protein M1 (FoxM1). Knockdown of FoxM1 by an siRNA attenuated the proliferation of chicken muscle cells, whereas its overexpression significantly promoted proliferation. Additionally, siRNA-PHGDH inhibited pcDNA3.1-FoxM1-induced FoxM1 expression in chicken muscle cells. Moreover, PHGDH inhibition overcame
