Hypoxia promotes osteogenesis via regulating the acetyl-CoA-mediated mito-nuclear communication.


ABSTRACT: Bone-mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) reside in a hypoxic niche that maintains their differentiation potential. Although the role of hypoxia (low oxygen concentration) in the regulation of stem cell function has been previously reported, with normoxia (high oxygen concentration) leading to impaired osteogenesis, the molecular events triggering changes in stem cell fate decisions in response to high oxygen remain elusive. Here, we study the impact of normoxia on the mito-nuclear communication with regards to stem cell differentiation. We show that normoxia-cultured MSCs undergo profound transcriptional alterations which cause irreversible osteogenesis defects. Mechanistically, high oxygen promotes chromatin compaction and histone hypo-acetylation, particularly on promoters and enhancers of osteogenic genes. Although normoxia induces metabolic rewiring resulting in high acetyl-CoA levels, histone hypo-acetylation occurs due to trapping of acetyl-CoA inside mitochondria, owing to lower CiC activity. Strikingly, restoring the cytosolic acetyl-CoA pool remodels the chromatin landscape and rescues the osteogenic defects. Collectively, our results demonstrate that the metabolism-chromatin-osteogenesis axis is heavily perturbed in response to high oxygen and identify CiC as a novel, oxygen-sensitive regulator of the MSC function.
