Transforming growth factor β regulates clusterin gene expression via modulation of transcription factor c‐Fos
15 Jul 1999
Abstract excerpt
Transforming growth factor-beta (TGFbeta) induces gene expression of the glycoprotein clusterin in a variety of cell types via a consensus AP-1 binding site. Here, we demonstrate, by supershift analysis, that JunB, JunD, Fra1, Fra2, and c-Fos bound to AP-1 but that prior treatment of the cells with TGFbeta reduced dramatically c-Fos binding, suggesting that c-Fos might be playing a negative regulatory role in...
