Identification of Sp2 as a Transcriptional Repressor of Carcinoembryonic Antigen-Related Cell Adhesion Molecule 1 in Tumorigenesis
1 May 2004
Abstract excerpt
Down-regulation of carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 1 (CEACAM1) tumor suppressor gene expression is common in several malignancies including prostate, colon, and breast cancer. The mechanism that mediates this down-regulation is not known. Here, we report that down-regulation of CEACAM1 expression in prostate cancer cells occurs primarily at the transcriptional level and is mediated by Sp2,...
