Abstract excerpt
We investigated the effect of c-Fos and/or c-Jun co-expression on transcription activation by the progesterone (PR), glucocorticoid (GR) or androgen (AR) receptors using three different reporter genes and four different cell lines. We found that c-Fos could only inhibit, while c-Jun could either inhibit or further stimulate receptor-induced transcription. All these effects were receptor, promoter, and cell type...
