The zinc finger transcription factor Egr-1 activates macrophage differentiation in M1 myeloblastic leukemia cells.
We previously have shown that the zinc finger transcription factor Egr-1 blocked granulocytic differentiation of HL-60 cells, restricting differentiation along the monocytic lineage. Egr-1 also was observed to block granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)-induced differentiation of interleukin-3 (IL-3)-dependent 32Dcl3 hematopoietic precursor cells, endowing the cells with the ability to ...
متن کاملZinc finger transcription factor Egr-1 activates Flt-1 gene expression in THP-1 cells on induction for macrophage differentiation.
Activation of macrophages is a hallmark of atherosclerosis. Stimulation of human monocytic leukemia THP-1 cells with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) is known to induce a variety of genes whose function is relevant to activated macrophages. Flt-1, a receptor tyrosine kinase for vascular endothelial growth factor, is expressed in macrophages as well as in endothelial cells and mediates the ...
متن کاملThe zinc finger transcription factor Egr-1 potentiates macrophage differentiation of hematopoietic cells.
Previously we have shown that the zinc finger transcription factor Egr-1 is essential for and restricts differentiation of hematopoietic cells along the macrophage lineage, raising the possibility that Egr-1 actually plays a deterministic role in governing the development of hematopoietic precursor cells along the monocytic lineage. To test this hypothesis, we have taken advantage of interleuki...
متن کاملThe Novel Zinc Finger-Containing Transcription Factor Osterix Is Required for Osteoblast Differentiation and Bone Formation
We have identified a novel zinc finger-containing transcription factor, called Osterix (Osx), that is specifically expressed in all developing bones. In Osx null mice, no bone formation occurs. In endochondral skeletal elements of Osx null mice, mesenchymal cells, together with osteoclasts and blood vessels, invade the mineralized cartilage matrix. However, the mesenchymal cells do not deposit ...
متن کاملFOG, a Multitype Zinc Finger Protein, Acts as a Cofactor for Transcription Factor GATA-1 in Erythroid and Megakaryocytic Differentiation
The hematopoietic transcription factor GATA-1 is essential for development of the erythroid and megakaryocytic lineages. Using the conserved zinc finger DNA-binding domain of GATA-1 in the yeast two-hybrid system, we have identified a novel, multitype zinc finger protein, Friend of GATA-1 (FOG), which binds GATA-1 but not a functionally inactive mutant lacking the amino (N) finger. FOG is coexp...
