چکیده: سرطان پستان دومین عامل مرگ مرتبط با سرطان در خانم ها است. از آنجا که سرطان پستان یک تومور وابسته به هورمون است، می تواند توسط وضعیت هورمون های استروئیدی شامل استروژن و پروژسترون تنظیم شود. استروژن نقش مهمی در توسعه و پیشرفت سرطان پستان ایفا می کند و تاثیر خود را روی بیان ژن های هدف از طریق گیرنده های استروژن اعمال می کند. اما گروه دیگری از گیرنده های هسته ای به نام گیرنده های مرتبط به ا...
15 صفحه اولSomatotroph- and lactotroph-specific interactions with the homeobox protein binding sites in the rat growth hormone gene promoter.
Nuclear extracts prepared from growth hormone-secreting (GC) and prolactin-secreting (235-1) rat anterior pituitary cell lines were compared for their ability to bind to the DNA sequences conferring tissue-specificity to the expression of the rat growth hormone (rGH) gene promoter. Cell-specific differences in the interaction of Pit-1, a tissue-specific member of the POU-domain transcription fa...
متن کاملThe Homeobox Gene GAX Activates p21 Expression in Vascular Endothelial Cells through Direct Interaction with Upstream AT-rich Sequences*
Tumors secrete pro-angiogenic factors to induce the ingrowth of blood vessels from the surrounding stroma, the end targets of which are vascular endothelial cells (ECs). The homeobox gene GAX inhibits angiogenesis and induces p21WAF1/CIP1 expression in vascular ECs. To elucidate the mechanism through which GAX activates p21WAF1/CIP1 expression, we constructedGAX cDNAswith deletions of theN-term...
متن کاملFoxa3 (HNF-3gamma) binds to and activates the rat proglucagon gene promoter but is not essential for proglucagon gene expression.
Members of the Forkhead box a (Foxa) transcription factor family are expressed in the liver, pancreatic islets and intestine and both Foxa1 and Foxa2 regulate proglucagon gene transcription. As Foxa proteins exhibit overlapping DNA-binding specificities, we examined the role of Foxa3 [hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-3gamma] in control of proglucagon gene expression. Foxa3 was detected by revers...
متن کاملThe rat androgen receptor gene promoter.
The androgen receptor (AR) is activated upon binding of testosterone or dihydrotestosterone and exerts regulatory effects on gene expression in androgen target cells. To study transcriptional regulation of the rat AR gene itself, the 5' genomic region of this gene was cloned from a genomic library and the promoter was identified. S1-nuclease protection analysis showed two major transcription st...
