Mitochondrial metabolism as a regulator of keratinocyte differentiation
Mitochondrial metabolism has traditionally been thought of as a source of cellular energy in the form of ATP. The recent renaissance in the study of cellular metabolism, particularly in the cancer field, has highlighted the fact that mitochondria are also critical biosynthetic and signaling hubs, making these organelles key governors of cellular outcomes.1-5 Using the epidermis as a model syste...
متن کاملNuclear Factor I/B: A Master Regulator of Cell Differentiation with Paradoxical Roles in Cancer
Emerging evidence indicates that nuclear factor I/B (NFIB), a transcription factor required for proper development and regulation of cellular differentiation in several tissues, also plays critical roles in cancer. Despite being a metastatic driver in small cell lung cancer and melanoma, it has become apparent that NFIB also exhibits tumour suppressive functions in many malignancies. The contra...
متن کاملHCaRG is a novel regulator of renal epithelial cell growth and differentiation causing G2M arrest.
We recently identified a novel calcium-regulated gene, HCaRG, that is highly expressed in the kidney and maps to a chromosomal locus determining kidney weight in rats. The mRNA levels of HCaRG negatively correlate with the proliferative status of the kidney cells. To investigate its role in renal epithelial cellular growth directly, we studied the human embryonic kidney cell line (HEK-293) stab...
متن کاملThe nuclear receptor PPARγ selectively inhibits Th17 differentiation in a T cell–intrinsic fashion and suppresses CNS autoimmunity
T helper cells secreting interleukin (IL)-17 (Th17 cells) play a crucial role in autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis (MS). Th17 differentiation, which is induced by a combination of transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta/IL-6 or IL-21, requires expression of the transcription factor retinoic acid receptor-related orphan receptor gamma t (ROR gamma t). We identify the nuclear receptor per...
متن کاملNuclear receptor corepressors and PPARγ
The nuclear receptor corepressors NCoR and SMRT repress gene transcription by recruiting a histone deacetylase complex. Their roles in PPARgamma action have been controversial. Recent evidence, however, suggests that NCoR and SMRT repress PPARgamma-mediated transcriptional activity on specific promoters in the adipocyte. In addition, by repressing PPARgamma action, these corepressors inhibit th...
