Development of Daily Molecular Rhythms in Human Cells Made from Stem Cells

Updated

Abstract

Human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) show no discernible circadian molecular oscillation.

  • The development of the circadian clock in humans may involve mechanisms similar to those observed in mice.
  • In vitro differentiation of human iPSCs requires a longer time than mouse cells for circadian oscillations to emerge.
  • CLOCK protein expression in undifferentiated human iPSCs is posttranscriptionally suppressed, despite mRNA being present.
  • This posttranscriptional suppression of CLOCK protein is consistent with findings in mouse embryonic stem cells and early embryos.
