Activating transcription factor-2 mediates transcriptional regulation of gluconeogenic gene PEPCK by retinoic acid.
All-trans-retinoic acid (RA) is known to increase the rate of transcription of the PEPCK gene upon engagement of the RA receptor (RAR). RA also mediates induction of specific gene transcription via several signaling pathways as a nongenomic effect. Here we show that RA upregulation of PEPCK promoter activity requires the cAMP response element (CRE)-1 in addition to the RA-response element and t...
متن کاملTranscriptional regulation of rat Na(+)/H(+) exchanger isoform-2 (NHE-2) gene by Sp1 transcription factor.
The rat Na(+)/H(+) exchanger isoform-2 (NHE-2) gene promoter lacks a TATA box and is very GC rich. A minimal promoter extending from bp -36 to +116 directs high-level expression of NHE-2 in mouse inner medullary collecting duct (mIMCD-3) cells. Four Sp1 consensus elements were found in this region. The introduction of mutations within these Sp1 consensus elements and DNA footprinting revealed t...
متن کاملRegulation of the mouse cartilage-derived retinoic acid-sensitive protein gene by the transcription factor AP-2.
The expression of cartilage-derived retinoic acid-sensitive protein (CD-RAP) is initiated at the beginning of chondrogenesis and continues throughout the cartilage development. In chondrocytes, CD-RAP is down-regulated by retinoic acid. To understand the molecular mechanism underlying this regulation and the cell-specific expression, the deletion constructs of the mouse CD-RAP promoter were tra...
متن کاملActivating transcription factor 2 mediates matrix metalloproteinase-2 transcriptional activation induced by p38 in breast epithelial cells.
Mounting evidence suggests a role for matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 in the malignant progression of breast cancer cells. We showed previously that H-Ras, but not N-Ras, induced invasion of MCF10A human breast epithelial cells through Rac-MKK3/6-p38 pathway resulted in MMP-2 up-regulation. Activation of p38 pathway by MKK6 caused a selective up-regulation of MMP-2. In this study, we aimed to ...
متن کاملTranscriptional regulation of activating transcription factor 3 involves the early growth response-1 gene.
Previously, our laboratory identified activating transcription factor 3 (ATF3) as up-regulated by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs using microarray analysis of mRNA from human colorectal cancer cells treated with sulindac sulfide. ATF3 is a transcription factor involved in cell growth, apoptosis, and invasion and is induced by a variety of anticancer and dietary compounds. However, the regu...
