Regulation of intestinal homeostasis and tumorigenesis by the transcriptional coregulator RIP140

چکیده
Colon cancer frequently results from mutations that constitutively activate the Wnt signaling pathway, a major target being the tumor suppressor gene adenomatous polyposis coli (APC). We recently identified the transcription factor RIP140 as a new inducer of APC gene transcription that inhibits colon cancer cell growth and impedes the Wnt signaling pathway by reducing β-catenin activation.

RIP140 increases APC expression and controls intestinal homeostasis and tumorigenesis.
Deregulation of the Wnt/APC/β-catenin signaling pathway is an important consequence of tumor suppressor APC dysfunction. Genetic and molecular data have established that disruption of this pathway contributes to the development of colorectal cancer. Here, we demonstrate that the transcriptional coregulator RIP140 regulates intestinal homeostasis and tumorigenesis. Using Rip140-null mice and mic...
متن کاملThe metabolic coregulator RIP140: an update.
RIP140 is a transcriptional coregulator highly expressed in metabolic tissues where it has important and diverse actions. RIP140-null mice show that it plays a crucial role in the control of lipid metabolism in adipose tissue, skeletal muscle, and the liver and is essential for female fertility. RIP140 has been shown to act as a ligand-dependent transcriptional corepressor for metabolic nuclear...
متن کاملThe RIP140 Gene Is a Transcriptional Target of E2F1
RIP140 is a transcriptional coregulator involved in energy homeostasis and ovulation which is controlled at the transcriptional level by several nuclear receptors. We demonstrate here that RIP140 is a novel target gene of the E2F1 transcription factor. Bioinformatics analysis, gel shift assay, and chromatin immunoprecipitation demonstrate that the RIP140 promoter contains bona fide E2F response...

RIP140 is a transcriptional coregulator involved in energy homeostasis, ovulation, and mammary gland development. Although conclusive evidence is lacking, reports have implicated a role for RIP140 in breast cancer. Here, we explored the mechanistic role of RIP140 in breast cancer and its involvement in estrogen receptor a (ERa) transcriptional regulation of gene expression. Using ChIP-seq analy...
متن کاملThe nuclear receptor transcriptional coregulator RIP140
The nuclear receptor superfamily comprises ligand-regulated transcription factors that control various developmental and physiological pathways. These receptors share a common modular structure and regulate gene expression through the recruitment of a large set of coregulatory proteins. These transcription cofactors regulate, either positively or negatively, chromatin structure and transcriptio...
