چکیده

For insight into transcriptional mechanisms mediating physiological responses to GH, data mining was performed on a profile of GH-regulated genes induced or inhibited at different times in highly responsive 3T3-F442A adipocytes. Gene set enrichment analysis indicated that GH-regulated genes are enriched in pathways including phosphoinositide and insulin signaling and suggested that suppressor of cytokine signaling 2 (SOCS2) and phosphoinositide 3' kinase regulatory subunit p85alpha (Pik3r1) are important targets. Model-based Chinese restaurant clustering identified a group of genes highly regulated by GH at times consistent with its key physiological actions. This cluster included IGF-I, phosphoinositide 3' kinase p85alpha, SOCS2, and cytokine-inducible SH2-containing protein. It also contains the most strongly repressed gene in the profile, B cell lymphoma 6 (Bcl6), a transcriptional repressor. Quantitative real-time PCR verified the strong decrease in Bcl6 mRNA after GH treatment and induction of the other genes in the cluster. Transcriptional network analysis of the genes implicated signal transducer and activator of transcription (Stat) 5 as hub regulating the most responsive genes, Igf1, Socs2, Cish, and Bcl6. Transcriptional activation analysis demonstrated that Bcl6 inhibits SOCS2-luciferase and blunts its stimulation by GH. Occupancy of endogenous Bcl6 on SOCS2 DNA decreased after GH treatment, whereas occupancy of Stat5 increased concomitantly. Thus, GH-mediated inhibition of Bcl6 expression may reverse the repression of SOCS2 and facilitate SOCS2 activation by GH. Together these analyses identify Bcl6 as a participant in GH-regulated gene expression and suggest an interplay between the repressor Bcl6 and the activator Stat5 in regulating genes, which contribute to GH responses.

Diagnosis and Treatment B non-Hodgkin Lymphoma with System Biology Approaches

Lymphomas are solid tumors of immune system and Non-Hodgkin Lymphomas (NHL) is the most prevalent lymphomas; with wide ranges of histological and clinical features, it is so difficult to identify them. Herein, various bioinformatics tools (such as gene differential expressions, epigenetics and protein analysis) employed to find new treatment approach for NHL based on gene expression variation b...

Male-specific hepatic Bcl6: growth hormone-induced block of transcription elongation in females and binding to target genes inversely coordinated with STAT5.

The transcriptional repressor Bcl6 is a male-specific rat liver gene product and one of 24 early GH-response genes encoding DNA-binding proteins. Presently, the sex specificity of Bcl6 was shown to emerge at puberty, when hepatic Bcl6 mRNA was induced in males and repressed in females by the female plasma GH profile. Hepatic Bcl6 mRNA was increased to near-normal male levels in hypophysectomize...

Dynamic, sex-differential STAT5 and BCL6 binding to sex-biased, growth hormone-regulated genes in adult mouse liver.

Sex-dependent pituitary growth hormone (GH) secretory patterns determine the sex-biased expression of >1,000 genes in mouse and rat liver, affecting lipid and drug metabolism, inflammation, and disease. A fundamental biological question is how robust differential expression can be achieved for hundreds of sex-biased genes simply based on the GH input signal pattern: pulsatile GH stimulation in ...

Identifying growth hormone-regulated enhancers in the Igf1 locus.

Growth hormone (GH) plays a central role in regulating somatic growth and in controlling multiple physiological processes in humans and other vertebrates. A key agent in many GH actions is the secreted peptide, IGF-I. As established previously, GH stimulates IGF-I gene expression via the Stat5b transcription factor, leading to production of IGF-I mRNAs and proteins. However, the precise mechani...
