Inhibition of hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 transcriptional activity by the nuclear factor kappaB pathway.
HNF-4 (hepatocyte nuclear factor 4) is a key regulator of liver-specific gene expression in mammals. We have shown previously that the activity of the human APOC3 (apolipoprotein C-III) promoter is positively regulated by the anti-inflammatory cytokine TGFbeta (transforming growth factor beta) and its effectors Smad3 (similar to mothers against decapentaplegic 3) and Smad4 proteins via physical...
متن کاملHistone deacetylase inhibition down-regulates cyclin D1 transcription by inhibiting nuclear factor-kappaB/p65 DNA binding.
Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors are emerging as a promising new class of cancer therapeutic agents. HDAC inhibitors relieve the deacetylation of histone proteins. However, little is known about the nonhistone targets of HDAC inhibitors and their roles in gene regulation. In this study, we addressed the molecular basis of the down-regulation of the nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB)-respons...
متن کاملInhibition of nuclear factor kappaB by phenolic antioxidants: interplay between antioxidant signaling and inflammatory cytokine expression.
Phenolic antioxidants inhibit the induction of inflammatory cytokines by inflammatory stimuli. Here, we analyzed the mechanism by which the antioxidants inhibit LPS-induced expression of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) in macrophages. Hydroquinone and tert-butyl hydroquinone, prototypes of phenolic antioxidants, block lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced transcription of TNFalpha and a nucle...
متن کاملNuclear factor-kappaB activation by the photochemotherapeutic agent verteporfin.
The nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappaB) gene transactivator serves in the formation of immune, inflammatory, and stress responses. In quiescent cells, NF-kappaB principally resides within the cytoplasm in association with inhibitory kappa (IkappaB) proteins. The status of IkappaB and NF-kappaB proteins was evaluated for promyelocytic leukemia HL-60 cells treated at different intensities of photo...
متن کاملInhibition of nuclear factor-kappaB activity by temozolomide involves O6-methylguanine induced inhibition of p65 DNA binding.
The alkylating agent temozolomide, commonly used in the treatment of malignant glioma, causes cellular cytotoxicity by forming O(6)-methylguanine adducts. In this report, we investigated whether temozolomide alters the activity of the transcription factor nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB). Temozolomide inhibits basal and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha)-induced NF-kappaB transcriptional a...
