GATA - 4 transcription factor regulates hepatic hepcidin expression Marie -
Hepcidin, a hormone mainly synthesized by hepatocytes and secreted in plasma, controls iron bioavailability. Thus, by inducing the internalization of the iron exporter ferroportin, it regulates iron release from macrophages, enterocytes and hepatocytes towards plasma. Abnormal levels of hepcidin expression alter plasma iron parameters and lead to iron metabolism disorders. Understanding the mec...

متن کاملThe transcription factor GATA-6 regulates pathological cardiac hypertrophy.
RATIONALE The transcriptional code that programs maladaptive cardiac hypertrophy involves the zinc finger-containing DNA binding factor GATA-4. The highly related transcription factor GATA-6 is also expressed in the adult heart, although its role in controlling the hypertrophic program is unknown. OBJECTIVE To determine the role of GATA-6 in cardiac hypertrophy and homeostasis. METHODS AND ...
متن کاملInositol polyphosphate 4-phosphatase type I regulates cell growth downstream of transcription factor GATA-1.
Megakaryocytes lacking transcription factor GATA-1 fail to complete maturation in vivo and hyperproliferate. To define how GATA-1 regulates megakaryocyte cell growth we searched for mRNA transcripts expressed in primary wild-type, but not GATA-1(-), megakaryocytes. One differentially expressed transcript encodes inositol polyphosphate 4-phosphatase type I (4-Ptase I). This enzyme hydrolyses pho...
متن کاملThe GATA transcription factor GtaC regulates early developmental gene expression dynamics in Dictyostelium
In many systems, including the social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum, development is often marked by dynamic morphological and transcriptional changes orchestrated by key transcription factors. However, efforts to examine sequential genome-wide changes of gene regulation in developmental processes have been fairly limited. Here we report the developmental regulatory dynamics of GtaC, a GATA-ty...
