Beta-hydroxybutyrate enhances mitochondrial energy metabolism through histone beta-hydroxybutyrylation

Listed in NCBI GEO

Beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) regulates gene expression through modulation of post-translational histone modifications, including histone beta-hydroxybutyrylation.

Description

In human renal tubular epithelial cells challenged with hydrogen peroxide, pretreatment with sodium beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHBNa) significantly upregulated global histone beta-hydroxybutyrylation marks, specifically enhancing beta-hydroxybutyrylation at histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4bhb) compared to hydrogen peroxide treatment alone.

To investigate whether BHB enhances mitochondrial energy metabolism via this epigenetic mechanism, we performed chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) specifically targeting H3K4bhb.
