چکیده

The oncoprotein c-Fos is a well-recognized AP-1 transcription factor. In addition, this protein associates with the endoplasmic reticulum and activates the synthesis of phospholipids. However, the mechanism by which c-Fos stimulates the synthesis of phospholipids in general and the specific lipid pathways activated are unknown. Here we show that induction of quiescent cells to reenter growth promotes an increase in the labeling of polyphosphoinositides that depends on the expression of c-Fos. We also investigated whether stimulation by c-Fos of the synthesis of phosphatidylinositol and its phosphorylated derivatives depends on the activation of enzymes of the phosphatidylinositolphosphate biosynthetic pathway. We found that c-Fos activates CDP-diacylglycerol synthase and phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) 4-kinase II α in vitro, whereas no activation of phosphatidylinositol synthase or of PtdIns 4-kinase II β was observed. Both coimmunoprecipitation and fluorescence resonance energy transfer experiments consistently showed a physical interaction between the N-terminal domain of c-Fos and the enzymes it activates.

c-Fos activates glucosylceramide synthase and glycolipid synthesis in PC12 cells.

It has been demonstrated that c-Fos has, in addition to its well recognized AP-1 transcription factor activity, the capacity to associate to the endoplasmic reticulum and activate key enzymes involved in the synthesis of phospholipids required for membrane biogenesis during cell growth and neurite formation. Because membrane genesis requires the coordinated supply of all its integral membrane c...

Buckwheat Rutin Inhibits AngII-induced Cardiomyocyte Hypertrophy via Blockade of CaN-dependent Signal Pathway

Buckwheat rutin has been found to be able to inhibit angiotensin II (AngII) - induced hypertrophy in cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes, but the mechanism remains uncertain. In this study, myocardial hypertrophy model was made by adding AngII to the medium of cardiac myocytes of neonatal rats, meanwhile, different concentrations of buckwheat rutin were applied to observe their effects. Intrac...

Postnatal development of spatial coding in the gravity sensing system

The critical maturation time of central otolith neurons in processing spatial orientations was examined in Sprague-Dawley rats. With the use of immuno-hybridization histochemical methods, we observed c-fos expression in vestibular nuclear neurons responding to transverse movement on the horizontal plane as early as P7 and those to antero-posterior stimulation as early as P9. In the inferior oli...
