Serum response factor and cAMP response element binding protein are both required for cocaine induction of ΔFosB.
The molecular mechanism underlying induction by cocaine of ΔFosB, a transcription factor important for addiction, remains unknown. Here, we demonstrate a necessary role for two transcription factors, cAMP response element binding protein (CREB) and serum response factor (SRF), in mediating this induction within the mouse nucleus accumbens (NAc), a key brain reward region. CREB and SRF are both ...
متن کاملMuscle specificity encoded by specific serum response factor-binding sites.
Serum response factor (SRF) is a MADS box transcription factor that regulates muscle-specific and growth factor-inducible genes by binding the consensus sequence CC(A/T)6GG, known as a CArG box. Because SRF expression is not restricted solely to muscle, its expression alone cannot account for the muscle specificity of some of its target genes. To understand further the role of SRF in muscle-spe...
متن کاملGrowth hormone regulates ternary complex factors and serum response factor associated with the c-fos serum response element.
For insight into the mechanisms of gene regulation by growth hormone (GH), the regulation of transcription factors associated with the serum response element (SRE) located upstream of c-fos was examined. The SRE can mediate induction of reporter expression in response to GH. For insight into the mechanism by which GH regulates transcription factors, regulation of SRE-associated proteins by GH w...
متن کاملCell fasting: Cellular response and application of serum starvation
Humans suffer transient or persistent starvation due to a lack of food intake, either because of fasting, voluntary dieting, or due to the scarcity of available food. At the cellular level it is possible to possess pathological starvation during ischemia and solid tumors. Blood provides many nutrients to our cells, and researchers provide these nutrients to cells in culture in the form of en...
متن کاملSerum Response Factor in Muscle Tissues: From Development to Ageing
Skeletal, cardiac and smooth muscle cells share various common characteristic features. During development the embryonic mesodermal layer contribute at different proportions to the formation of these tissues. At the functional level, contractility as well as its decline during ageing, are also common features. Cytoskeletal components of these tissues are characterized by various actin isoforms ...
