Parathyroid Hormone Controls Receptor Activator of NF-κB Ligand Gene Expression via a Distant Transcriptional Enhancer
16 Aug 2006
Abstract excerpt
RANKL, a protein essential for osteoclast development and survival, is stimulated by parathyroid hormone (PTH) via a PTH receptor 1/cyclic AMP (cAMP)/protein kinase A (PKA)/CREB cascade, exclusively in osteoblastic cells. We report that a bacterial artificial chromosome-based transcriptional reporter construct containing 120 kb of RANKL 5'-flanking region was stimulated by dibutyryl-cAMP in stromal/osteoblastic...
