Abstract excerpt
The transcription of the cytosolic form of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK-C) gene is differentially regulated in each of the several PEPCK-C-expressing tissues. In the kidney, it is regulated by glucocorticoids and acidosis. Previously, we reported that in LLC-PK1 and derived kidney cell lines, mutation of the hepatic nuclear factor 1 (HNF-1) binding site in PEPCK-C gene promoter markedly reduced both...
