The activator protein-1 transcription factor in respiratory epithelium carcinogenesis.
Respiratory epithelium cancers are the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. The multistep natural history of carcinogenesis can be considered as a gradual accumulation of genetic and epigenetic aberrations, resulting in the deregulation of cellular homeostasis. Growing evidence suggests that cross-talk between membrane and nuclear receptor signaling pathways along with the activator...

متن کاملOxidative stress regulates the expression and activity of transcription factor activator protein-1 in rat conceptus.
The transcription factor activator protein-1 (AP-1), composed of the Fos and Jun families of proto-oncogenes, is induced in response to extracellular signals as part of an immediate-early gene response. We hypothesize that teratogens such as oxidative stress induce AP-1 activity in the rat conceptus and that this AP-1 response may either trigger abnormal development or protect the embryo agains...
متن کاملTargeting the activator protein 1 transcription factor for the prevention of estrogen receptor-negative mammary tumors.
The oncogene erbB2 is overexpressed in 20% to 30% human breast cancers and is most commonly overexpressed in estrogen receptor (ER)-negative breast cancers. Transgenic mice expressing erbB2 develop ER-negative mammary tumors, mimicking human breast carcinogenesis. Previously, we have shown that activator protein 1 (AP-1) regulates proliferation of ER-negative breast cancer cells. We hypothesize...
متن کاملCarcinogenesis in heterotopic respiratory epithelium in canine subcutaneous bronchial autografts.
Short bronchial segments obtained by pneumonectomy were implanted, 9-12 per dog, in the subcutaneous tissues of the back of seven dogs. These subcutaneous bronchial autografts (SBA) became vascularized, and they contained viable, histologically normal respiratory epithelium 4 wk after implantation. From 1-3 mo after implantation, 10% methylcholanthrene in steroid suspension medium was instilled...
