PDX-1 (pancreatic/duodenal homeobox-1 protein 1).
The homeodomain-containing transcription factor pancreatic duodenal homeobox 1 (PDX-1) plays a key role in pancreatic development and β-cell function. It is a major regulator of transcription in pancreatic cells, and transactivates the insulin gene by binding to a specific DNA motif in its promoter region. Glucose also regulates insulin gene transcription through PDX-1. It has been shown that P...
متن کاملSonic hedgehog and pancreatic-duodenal homeobox 1 expression distinguish between duodenal and pancreatic gastrinomas.
Some 80-90% of gastrinomas are located in the gastrinoma triangle, which includes the duodenum, the pancreatic head, and the hepatoduodenal ligament. The natural history of the tumors depends on their origin. Duodenal gastrinomas are much less aggressive than pancreatic primaries and infrequently develop liver metastases. The reason therefore is unclear. The transcription factor pancreatic-duod...
متن کاملNotch1 Activation Up-Regulates Pancreatic and Duodenal Homeobox-1
Transcription factor pancreatic and duodenal homeobox-1 (PDX-1) plays an essential role in pancreatic development, β-cell differentiation, maintenance of normal β-cell function and tumorigenesis. PDX-1 expression is tightly controlled through a variety of mechanisms under different cellular contexts. We report here that overexpression of Notch1 intracellular domain (NICD), an activated form of ...
متن کاملPancreatic-duodenal homeobox 1 -role in gastric endocrine patterning
The gastrointestinal tract is subdivided into regions with different roles in digestion and absorption. How this patterning is established is unknown. We now report that the pancreatic-duodenal homeobox 1 gene (pdx1) is also expressed in cells of the distal stomach. Positive cells include subpopulations of the three main endocrine (gastrin, somatostatin and serotonin) cell types of this region....
متن کاملInsulin stimulates pancreatic-duodenal homoeobox factor-1 (PDX1) DNA-binding activity and insulin promoter activity in pancreatic beta cells.
Pancreatic-duodenal homoeobox factor-1 (PDX1) is a homoeodomain transcription factor that plays an important role in linking glucose metabolism in pancreatic beta cells to the regulation of insulin gene transcription. Our previous results indicated that glucose activates PDX1 DNA-binding activity and insulin promoter activity via a stress-activated signalling pathway involving phosphatidylinosi...
