摘要： Secondary hair follicles (SHFs) in the Angora rabbit exhibit classic cyclic hair development, but the multiple molecular signals involved in hair cycling are yet to be explored in detail. In the present study, we investigated the expression pattern, methylation and histone H3 acetylation status of Wnt10b, as a molecular signal participating in hair cycling, during the SHF cycle in the Angora rabbit. Expression of Wnt10b at the anagen phase was significantly higher than that at both the telogen and catagen phases, suggesting that Wnt10b might serve as a critical activator during cyclic transition of SHFs. Methylation frequency of the fifth CpG site (CpG5-175 bp) in CpG islands at the anagen phase was lower than that at both the catagen and telogen phases. The methylation status of the CpG5 site was negatively correlated with Wnt10b expression. This indicated that the methylation of CpG5 might participate in Wnt10b transcriptional suppression in SHFs. Furthermore, histone H3 acetylation status in the regions-256 similar to-11 bp and 98 similar to 361 bp were significantly lower at both the catagen and telogen phases than at the anagen phase. The histone H3 acetylation level was significantly positively correlated with Wnt10b expression. This confirmed that histone acetylation was likely involved in upregulating Wnt10b transcription in SHFs. Additionally, potential binding to the transcription factors ZF57 and HDBP was predicted within the CpG5 site. In conclusion, our findings reveal the epigenetic mechanism of Wnt10b transcription and provide a new insight into epigenetic regulation during the SHF cycle in the Angora rabbit.
