Repressing the repressor: Fra1 controls plasma cell generation
B cell differentiation from the early commitment into the B lymphoid lineage in the bone marrow up to the differentiation into antibody secreting plasma cells is tightly controlled by a transcriptional program dominated by a cascade of repression. Indeed, each step of B cell differentiation to mature B cells appears to depend on transcription factors that, in addition to promoting differentiati...
متن کاملA review of Biology and clinical use of Mesenchymal stem cell: an immune -modulator progenitor cell
Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs), which also called mesenchymal stromal cells, are multipotent stem cell. Human MSCs typically are positive for the surface markers CD44, CD73, CD90, CD105, CD106, and also negative for hematopoietic markers CD34 and CD45.These cells can be isolated from postnatal bone marrow, adipose tissue, placenta, and scalp tissue, as well as from various fetal tissues. ...
متن کاملThe AP-1 transcription factor Fra1 inhibits follicular B cell differentiation into plasma cells
The cornerstone of humoral immunity is the differentiation of B cells into antibody-secreting plasma cells. This process is tightly controlled by a regulatory gene network centered on the transcriptional repressor B lymphocyte-induced maturation protein 1 (Blimp1). Proliferation of activated B cells is required to foster Blimp1 expression but needs to be terminated to avoid overshooting immune ...
متن کاملWidespread FRA1-Dependent Control of Mesenchymal Transdifferentiation Programs in Colorectal Cancer Cells
Tumor invasion and metastasis involves complex remodeling of gene expression programs governing epithelial homeostasis. Mutational activation of the RAS-ERK is a frequent occurrence in many cancers and has been shown to drive overexpression of the AP-1 family transcription factor FRA1, a potent regulator of migration and invasion in a variety of tumor cell types. However, the nature of FRA1 tra...
متن کاملDysregulation of Fra1 expression by Wnt/β-catenin signalling promotes glioma aggressiveness through epithelial–mesenchymal transition
Aberrant expression of Fos-related antigen-1 (Fra1) is commonly elevated in various malignant cancers and is strongly implicated in invasion and metastasis. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying its dysregulation in human glioma remain poorly understood. In the present study, we demonstrate that up-regulation of Fra1 plays a crucial role in the glioma aggressiveness and epithelial-mesenc...
