ABSTRACT The dual function of stem cells requires them not only to form new stem cells through self-renewal but also to form lineage-committed cells through differentiation. Embryonic stem cells (ESC), which are derived from the blastocyst inner cell mass, retain properties of self-renewal and the potential for lineage commitment. To balance self-renewal and differentiation, ESC must carefully control the levels of several transcription factors, including Nanog, Sox2, and Oct4. While molecular mechanisms promoting transcription of these genes have been described, mechanisms preventing excessive levels in self-renewing ESC remain unknown. By examining the function of the TCF family of transcription factors in ESC, we have found that Tcf3 is necessary to limit the steady-state levels of Nanog mRNA, protein, and promoter activity in self-renewing ESC. Chromatin immunoprecipitation and promoter reporter assays showed that Tcf3 bound to a promoter regulatory region of the Nanog gene and repressed its transcriptional activity in ESC through a Groucho interaction domain-dependent process. The absence of Tcf3 caused delayed differentiation of ESC in vitro as elevated Nanog levels persisted through 5 days of embryoid body formation. These new data support a model wherein Tcf3-mediated control of Nanog levels allows stem cells to balance the creation of lineage-committed and undifferentiated cells.

Introduction: Failure and recurrence in breast cancer treatment cause a great obstacle in cancer therapy and identification of cell population named cancer stem cells (CSCs) in the tumor can be led us to define it as target in novel therapeutic strategy. Objectives: The aim of this study is the finding of correlation between stemness and metastatic characteristic, also knowing CSCs as a potential target of therapy because of its developmental behavior and similarities with normal stem cells. Materials and Methods: Here, we focus on the expression of NANOG in breast CSCs, a key molecule in the physiological process of stem cells and the Let-7a that is involved in the differentiation of the cells. Results: In this work, we found that NANOG was highly expressed in SKBR3 and down-regulation of let-7a, as a differentiation miRNA, was found in MDA-MB-468 cells. Conclusion: It will be critical for the developing of effective anti-tumor drugs, utilizing mentioned concepts. Inhibition of NANOG in combination with Let-7a up-regulation can help to decrease the stemness and increase the differentiation of CSCs. The decrease of stemness and increase of differentiation initiate the apoptotic process. So, modification in the mechanism of apoptosis beside anti-cancer drugs provide a good preclinical study goal. However, in order to these drugs become clinical, the problems of their side effects and toxicity must be solved. Differentiation of CSCs provides an optimal condition to activity of immune cells which never let them escape from immune cells by alteration of immunogenicity.
