NDRG2 Regulates the Expression of Genes Involved in Epithelial Mesenchymal Transition of Prostate Cancer Cells
Background: Metastasis is the main cause of prostate cancer (PCa) death. The inhibitory effect of N-myc downstream-regulated gene 2 (NDRG2) on the invasiveness properties of PCa cells has been demonstrated previously. However, its underlying mechanisms have not yet been investigated. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of NDRG2 overexpression on the expression of genes involved i...
متن کاملHormonal regulation of steroidogenic enzyme gene expression in Leydig cells.
In normal mouse Leydig cells, steady state levels of mRNA of CYP11A, 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase Δ⁵- >Δ⁴-isomerase (3βHSD), and CYP17 are differentially regulated. There is high basal expression of 3βHSD and CYP11A mRNA, while expression of CYP17 mRNA is absolutely dependent on cAMP stimulation. cAMP is required for maximal expression of all three enzymes. The expression of CYP11A in normal...
متن کاملTranscriptional regulation of Tlr11 gene expression in epithelial cells.
As sensors of invading microorganisms, Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are expressed not only on macrophages and dendritic cells (DCs) but also on epithelial cells. In the TLR family, Tlr11 appears to have the unique feature in that it is expressed primarily on epithelial cells, although it is also expressed on DCs and macrophages. Here, we demonstrate that transcription of the Tlr11 gene is regulat...
متن کاملPaxillin-dependent regulation of IGF2 and H19 gene cluster expression
Paxillin (PXN) is a focal adhesion protein that has been implicated in signal transduction from the extracellular matrix. Recently, it has been shown to shuttle between the cytoplasm and the nucleus. When inside the nucleus, paxillin promotes cell proliferation. Here, we introduce paxillin as a transcriptional regulator of IGF2 and H19 genes. It does not affect the allelic expression of the two...
