NF-κB and the Immunoglobulin κ Gene Enhancer
Enhancers regulate lineage choice and the developmental timing of antigen receptor gene rearrangements. The transcription factor NF-kappaB has been implicated as a key component of the recombination and transcription activation potential of the immunoglobulin kappa chain gene intronic enhancer. Here, I discuss the implications of the new observation that an NF-kappaB binding site-mutated enhanc...
متن کاملGene expression in the Gitr locus is regulated by NF-κB and Foxp3 through an enhancer.
Glucocorticoid-induced TNFR (Gitr) and Ox40, two members of the TNFR superfamily, play important roles in regulating activities of effector and regulatory T cells (Treg). Their gene expression is induced by T cell activation and further upregulated in Foxp3+ Treg. Although the role of Foxp3 as a transcriptional repressor in Treg is well established, the mechanisms underlying Foxp3-mediated tran...
متن کاملImmunoglobulin λ Gene Rearrangement Can Precede κ Gene Rearrangement
Immunoglobulin genes are generated during differentiation of B lymphocytes by joining gene segments. A mouse pre-B cell contains a functional immunoglobulin heavy-chain gene, but no light-chain gene. Although there is only one heavy-chain locus, there are two light-chain loci: kappa and lambda. It has been reported that kappa loci in the germ-line configuration are never (in man) or very rarely...
متن کاملStructural and functional analysis of the related transcriptional enhancer factor-1 and NF-κB interaction.
The related transcriptional enhancer factor-1 (RTEF-1) increases gene transcription of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) and enhances angiogenesis in endothelium. Both hypoxia and inflammatory factor TNF-α regulate gene expression of HIF-1α, but how RTEF-1 and TNF-α coordinately regulate HIF-1α gene transcription is unclear. Here, we found that RTEF-1 interacts with p65 subunit of NF-κB, a p...
متن کاملResveratrol suppresses hyperglycemia-induced activation of NF-κB and AP-1 via c-Jun and RelA gene regulation
Background: Resveratrol (RSV) provides several important biological functions in wide variety of cells. In this study, we investigated the molecular mechanisms underlying anti-inflammatory effect of RSV on HepG2 cells by assessing the gene expression of RelA and c-Jun- subunits of NF-κB and AP-1 transcription factors. Methods: HepG2 cells were settled in a serum- free medium...
