Gastrin regulates the TFF2 promoter through gastrin-responsive cis-acting elements and multiple signaling pathways.
Trefoil family factor 2 (TFF2) is expressed in gastrointestinal epithelial cells where it serves to maintain mucosal integrity and promote epithelial repair. The peptide hormone, gastrin, stimulates acid secretion but also induces proliferation of the acid-secreting mucosa. Because the relationship between these peptides of overlapping function is not understood, we chose to investigate the reg...
متن کاملGastrin induces c-fos gene transcription via multiple signaling pathways.
We previously observed that the trophic actions of gastrin (G17) on the AR42J rat acinar cell line are mediated by mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)-induced c-fos gene transcription via protein kinase C (PKC)-dependent and -independent pathways. In this study, we further investigated the signaling pathways that target c-fos in response to G17. G17 led to a sixfold induction in luciferase ...
متن کاملCharacterization of cis-acting and NS1 protein-responsive elements in the p6 promoter of parvovirus B19.
Parvovirus B19 infections are associated with diverse clinical manifestations, ranging from no symptoms to severe symptoms. The virus shows an extreme tropism for replication in erythroid progenitor cells, possibly due to the activity of the only functional promoter (p6) of the B19 virus genome in combination with both cell- and cell cycle-specific factors and the trans-activator protein NS1. A...
متن کاملHelicobacter pylori induction of the gastrin promoter through GC-rich DNA elements.
BACKGROUND Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection has been linked to the development of chronic gastritis, duodenal ulcer disease, and gastric cancer. Helicobacter pylori- infected patients and animal models develop hypergastrinemia, chronic gastritis, and gastric atrophy. Since gastrin is an important regulator of gastric acid secretion and cell growth, H. pylori regulation of this hormone ...
متن کاملHelicobacter and gastrin stimulate Reg1 expression in gastric epithelial cells through distinct promoter elements.
The gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori accelerates the progression to gastric cancer but the precise mechanisms that mediate carcinogenesis remain unidentified. We now describe how Helicobacter and gastrin stimulate the expression of a putative growth factor, Reg1, in primary gastric epithelial cells. RT-PCR and Western immunoblotting of human gastric corpus and antrum showed significantly in...
