Cyclical regulation of the insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 gene in response to 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D 3
18 Sept 2010
Abstract excerpt
The nuclear receptor vitamin D receptor (VDR) is known to associate with two vitamin D response element (VDRE) containing chromatin regions of the insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 (IGFBP3) gene. In non-malignant MCF-10A human mammary cells, we show that the natural VDR ligand 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1α,25(OH)(2)D(3)) causes cyclical IGFBP3 mRNA accumulation with a periodicity of 60 min, while in...
