The human granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor gene is autonomously regulated in vivo by an inducible tissue-specific enhancer.
The granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) gene is part of a cytokine gene cluster and is directly linked to a conserved upstream inducible enhancer. Here we examined the in vitro and in vivo functions of the human GM-CSF enhancer and found that it was required for the correctly regulated expression of the GM-CSF gene. An inducible DNase I-hypersensitive site appeared within ...
متن کاملVascular Endothelial Growth Factor Production is Regulated by Gene Polymorphisms
Background: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has a key role in angiogene-sis and in transplantation. The level of VEGF is related to the differences in the DNA sequence of its promoter region. Objectives: In this study, the association between the combination of VEGF –1154 G and –2578 C alleles and VEGF production by LPS-stimulated PBMCs was investigated. In addition; the relationship ...
متن کاملRunx1-mediated hematopoietic stem-cell emergence is controlled by a Gata/Ets/SCL-regulated enhancer.
The transcription factor Runx1/AML1 is an important regulator of hematopoiesis and is critically required for the generation of the first definitive hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in the major vasculature of the mouse embryo. As a pivotal factor in HSC ontogeny, its transcriptional regulation is of high interest but is largely undefined. In this study, we used a combination of comparative geno...
متن کاملTbx1 is regulated by tissue-specific forkhead proteins through a common Sonic hedgehog-responsive enhancer.
Haploinsufficiency of Tbx1 is likely a major determinant of cardiac and craniofacial birth defects associated with DiGeorge syndrome. Although mice deficient in Tbx1 exhibit pharyngeal and aortic arch defects, the developmental program and mechanisms through which Tbx1 functions are relatively unknown. We identified a single cis-element upstream of Tbx1 that recognized winged helix/forkhead box...
متن کاملExpression of the Distalless-B gene in Ciona is regulated by a pan-ectodermal enhancer module.
The Ci-Dll-B gene is an early regulator of ectodermal development in the ascidian Ciona intestinalis (Imai et al., 2006). Ci-Dll-B is located in a convergently transcribed bigene cluster with a tandem duplicate, Ci-Dll-A. This clustered genomic arrangement is the same as those of the homologous vertebrate Dlx genes, which are also arranged in convergently transcribed bigene clusters. Sequence a...
