Androgen-dependent regulation of human MUC1 mucin expression.
MUC1 mucin is transcriptionally regulated by estrogen, progesterone, and glucocorticoids. Our objective was to determine whether androgen receptor (AR) activation regulates expression of MUC1. The following breast and prostatic cell lines were phenotyped and grouped according to AR and MUC1 protein expression: 1) AR+MUC1 + [DAR17+19 (AR transfectants of DU-145), ZR-75-1, MDA-MB-453, and T47D]; ...
متن کاملMUC1 mucin-mediated regulation of human T cells.
MUC1 mucin is expressed by normal human epithelial cells and is overproduced in underglycosylated form by malignant epithelial cells. A number of anticancer immunotherapeutic strategies are being designed with the goal of inducing humoral and cellular immune responses against MUC1 mucin. Newly synthesized MUC1 mucin is also expressed on polyclonally stimulated human T cells. An immunoregulatory...
متن کاملExpression of MUC1 mucin in full-term pregnancy human placenta.
PURPOSE MUC1 mucin is a component of glycocalyx in human endometrium and may play an important role in generation of "receptive window" at embryo implantation. Considering that MUC1 expression in human placenta is changed during pregnancy, and that MUC1 structure and function are not completely known in this organ, we have undertaken isolation of this mucin and detection of glycan epitopes, sin...
متن کاملSignificance of MUC1 and MUC2 mucin expression in colorectal cancer.
AIMS To compare the lineage specific distribution of MUC1 and MUC2 mucins in normal colorectal mucosa and adenocarcinoma and to identify pathological correlations. METHODS Paraffin wax sections from 51 colorectal cancers were examined for the expression of MUC1 and MUC2, non-O-acetyl sialic acid and the carbohydrate epitopes Lex, Ley, sialosyl-Lex, sialosyl-Tn, and Tn using standard histochem...
متن کاملDevelopmental expression of mucin genes MUC1 and MUC2.
The mucin gene MUC1, is expressed in a number of human ductal epithelia in vivo including those within the pancreas, mammary gland, kidney and genital ducts. Further it is expressed at a high level in certain tumours and tumour-derived cell lines. MUC2 was initially isolated from a human jejunum cDNA library and is thought to be one of the major intestinal mucin genes, though it is also express...
