Cím:	Transcriptional regulation of the TGF-β2 gene in choriocarcinoma cells and breast carcinoma cells : differential utilization of Cis-regulatory elements / Michelle Kingsley-Kallesen, Lance Johnson, Beáta Scholtz, David Kelly, Angie Rizzino
Dátum:	1997
Megjegyzések:	Previous studies have shown that the transcription of the TGF-beta 2 gene is controlled by at least one negative and two positive regulatory regions in differentiated cells derived from both embryonal carcinoma cells and embryonic stem cells. The use of TGF-beta 2 promoter/reporter gene constructs has also identified a CRE/ATF motif near the TATA box that appears to heavily influence the transcription of the TGF-beta 2 gene. In this study, two choriocarcinoma cell lines, JAR and JEG-3, and the breast cancer cell line, MCF-7, were used to determine whether differences exist in the transcriptional regulation of the TGF-beta 2 gene. We demonstrated that both similarities and differences exist in the transcriptional regulation of this gene. Common to all cells examined to date, the positive regulatory region just upstream of the TATA box contains an essential CRE/ATF motif that binds at least one transcription factor, ATF-1, in gel mobility shift assays. However, we did not detect ATF-2 binding to this site with any of the nuclear extracts used. We also determined that the effect of the region between -187 and -78 (relative to the transcription start site) is cell type dependent. Previous studies have shown that this region acts to reduce the activity of the TGF-beta 2 promoter in differentiated cells derived from embryonal carcinoma cells and embryonic stem cells. In direct contrast, this region acts as a strong positive regulatory region in JAR, JEC-3, and MCF-7 cells. The mechanisms responsible for these differing effects remain to be established. Interestingly, this region does not appear to contain sequence motifs that bind known transcription factors. Thus, this region is likely to bind one or more novel transcription factors or contain novel recognition sites for known transcription factors.

Cím:	Appearance of nuclear protease activity after embryonal carcinoma cells undergo differentiation / Beáta Scholtz, Kimberly Lamb, Edward Rosfjord, Michelle Kingsley, Angie Rizzino
Dátum:	1996
ISSN:	0012-1606
Megjegyzések:	Eppley Institute for Research in Cancer and Allied Diseases (Omaha, NE) Proteolytic systems are involved via multiple mechanisms in the regulation of gene expression, including tightly controlled metabolism of transcription factors. In this study, we demonstrate that differentiation of mouse embryonal carcinoma cells to parietal endoderm-like cells is accompanied by the appearance of nuclear protease activity. Interestingly, this nuclear-associated protease activity is not observed in the visceral endoderm-like cell line, PSA-5E, or in the differentiated cells derived from both mouse embryonic stem cells and the human embryonal carcinoma cell line NT2/D1. We also determined that this differentiation-associated nuclear protease activity causes proteolysis of a wide range of different transcription factors, including ATF-1, Sp1, NF-YA and B, and octamer-binding proteins Oct-1 and Oct-3. Based on the effects of specific inhibitors, the nuclear protease(s) can be classified as a cysteine protease; however, lack of inhibition by calpastatin and EGTA distinguishes this protease activity from the calpain family of proteases. Given the properties of the differentiation-associated nuclear protease(s), we discuss the possibility that this protease(s) plays a role in the metabolism of transcription factors during the differentiation of specific embryonic cells.
