The mRNA levels of two target genes were detected with real- time PCR. These two genes were down-regulated since the 48^th and the down-reg-lation continued with the extension of time, the interference efficiency reached 65% at 96^th hour （P 〈0.05）. With the down-regulation of cNanog or cPouV gene, cESCs showed differentiation and prolifera- tion rate of these cells slowed down, the domed colony of these cells disappeared gradually when the edge of colony became irregular. At 96^th hour after transfection, the alkline phosphatase （AKP） and stage-specific embryonic antigen-1 （ SSEA-1 ） were not be detected in cNanog gene-knecked out eESCs, but it was done in that with cPouV gene -knocked out. The cPouV-suppressing cESCs were again transfected with pSuper-cNanog, the pluripotency markers AKP and SSEA-1 were both not found expressing at the 48^th hour. The results showed that cPouV and cNartog genes played an important role in maintaining pluripotency and self- renewal in cESCs, and cNanog gene was dominant. To sum up, our results may provide insights into the molecular regulation mechanism of avian during development.展开更多
