SCF induces γ-globin gene expression by regulating downstream transcription factor COUP-TFII
28 Apr 2009
Abstract excerpt
Increased fetal hemoglobin expression in adulthood is associated with acute stress erythropoiesis. However, the mechanisms underlying gamma-globin induction during the rapid expansion of adult erythroid progenitor cells have not been fully elucidated. Here, we examined COUP-TFII as a potential repressor of gamma-globin gene after stem cell factor (SCF) stimulation in cultured human adult erythroid progenitor...
