چکیده
SOCS-3 gene induction by cAMP-elevating agents or the protein kinase C (PKC) activator, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), in primary HUVECs was found to require PKCη- and PKCε-dependent extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activation. The minimal, ERK-responsive element of the SOCS-3 promoter was localized to a region spanning nucleotides -107 to the transcription start site and contains conserved binding sites for AP-1 and SP1/SP3 transcription factors, as well as proximal and distal signal transducer and activator of transcription (pSTAT and dSTAT) binding elements. All three classes of transcription factor were activated in response to ERK activation. Moreover, representative protein components of each of these transcription factor binding sites, namely c-Jun, STAT3, and SP3, were found to undergo ERK-dependent phosphorylation within their respective transactivation domains. Mutational analysis demonstrated an absolute requirement for the SP1/SP3 binding element in controlling basal transcriptional activity of the minimal SOCS-3 promoter. In addition AP-1, pSTAT, and SP1/SP3 binding sites were required for ERK-dependent, PMA-stimulated SOCS-3 gene activation. The dSTAT site seems to be important for supporting activity of the AP-1 site, because combined deletion of both sites completely blocks transcriptional activation of SOCS-3 by PMA. Together these results describe novel, ERK-dependent regulation of transcriptional activity that requires codependent activation of multiple transcription factors within the same region of the SOCS-3 gene promoter.

متن کاملThe Role of Adiponectin in Prostate Cancer: A Narrative Review
Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common type of cancer among men over 60 years old. The aggressiveness and mortality of PCa can be correlated with obesity. Adipose tissue-derived cytokines such as adiponectin may explain the correlation between PCa and obesity. Since the correlation between adiponectin and aggressive PCa is still not fully evaluated, we aimed to investigate the probable role o...

Interleukin-5 (IL-5) is one of the major regulators of eosinophilic granulocytes in vivo. IL-5 exerts its pleiotropic effects by binding to the IL-5 receptor, which is composed of an IL-5-specific alpha chain and a common betac chain shared with the receptors for IL-3 and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor. Previous studies have shown that binding of IL-5 to its receptor triggers ...
