Mammalian erythroblasts undergo enucleation, a process thought to be similar to cytokinesis. Although an assemblage of actin, non-muscle myosin II, and several other proteins is crucial for proper cytokinesis, the role of non-muscle myosin II in enucleation remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the effect of various celldivision inhibitors on cytokinesis and enucleation. For this purpose, we used human colony-forming unit-erythroid (CFU-E) and mature erythroblasts generated from purified CD34(+) cells as target cells for cytokinesis and enucleation assay, respectively. Here we show that the inhibition of myosin by blebbistatin, an inhibitor of non-muscle myosin II ATPase, blocks both cell division and enucleation, which suggests that non-muscle myosin II plays an essential role not only in cytokinesis but also in enucleation. When the function of non-muscle myosin heavy chain (NMHC) IIA or IIB was inhibited by an exogenous expression of myosin rod fragment, myosin IIA or IIB, each rod fragment blocked the proliferation of CFU-E but only the rod fragment for IIB inhibited the enucleation of mature erythroblasts. These data indicate that NMHC IIB among the isoforms is involved in the enucleation of human erythroblasts. (Blood. 201 2;119(4):1036-1044)
