Mechanism of JmjC-containing protein Hairless in the regulation of vitamin D receptor function.

چکیده
The JmjC-domain-containing protein Hairless (HR) and the vitamin D receptor (VDR) play a critical role in the maintenance of hair growth. Mutations in HR or VDR cause alopecia in humans and mice. Here we show that HR interacts with VDR and induces VDR relocalization in the nuclei. HR associates and colocalizes with nuclear receptor co-repressor (N-CoR) which is localized to subnuclear structures termed matrix-associated deacetylase (MAD) bodies. It is found that the HR mutants (C622G, N970S, D1012N, V1136D), associated with alopecia universalis congenita (AUC) or atrichia with papular lesions (APL), exhibit an abnormal subcellular distribution in addition to the impaired co-repressor activity with VDR. Studies on deletion mutants of HR indicate that the JmjC domain contributes to the co-repressor activity of HR. Our work provides new clues and evidence for the understanding on the role of HR in hair growth.

Klotho is an anti-aging single-pass membrane protein that is mainly produced in the kidney. The level of soluble klotho decreases with age and the klotho gene is associated with an increased risk of age-related diseases, such as diabetes, skin atrophy, chronic kidney disease, ataxia and cancer. The klotho gene is composed of five exons and encodes a membrane glycoprotein located in the plasma ...
