Effects of 5-azacytidine-2’- deoxycytidine on the proliferation, cell cycle, and apoptosis of fetal bovine fibroblast cells

Fetal bovine fibroblast cells (FBFCs) are widely used in cellular reprogramming and methylation. In this study, the effects of 5- azacytidine-2’- deoxycytidines (5-Aza-CdR), a DNA methylation inhibitor on the physiological characteristics of FBFCs were investigated. The FBFCs derived from a bovine f...

description Fetal bovine fibroblast cells (FBFCs) are widely used in cellular reprogramming and methylation. In this study, the effects of 5- azacytidine-2’- deoxycytidines (5-Aza-CdR), a DNA methylation inhibitor on the physiological characteristics of FBFCs were investigated. The FBFCs derived from a bovine fetus were treated with 5-Aza-CdR at different concentrations for 24, 48 and 72 h, respectively, to determine the changes of cell proliferation, viability, cell cycle distribution and apoptosis rates. The results demonstrated that 5- Aza- CdR treatment in the FBFCs resulted in a decrease of cell proliferation, cell viability, and an increase of total cell apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner. The best treatment strategy for 5-Aza-CdR was less than 0.1 μmol/L for 24 h, which showed minimal adverse effects on FBFCs. The above results indicate that the low dose DNA demethylation inhibitor treatment in FBFCs is beneficial for cell reprogramming.
