AP‐1 and Mitf interact with NFATc1 to stimulate cathepsin K promoter activity in osteoclast precursors
28 Feb 2019
Abstract excerpt
Cathepsin K (CTSK) is a secreted protease that plays an essential role in osteoclastic bone resorption and osteoporotic bone loss. We have previously shown that activator protein 1 (AP-1) stimulates CTSK promoter activity and that proximal nuclear factor of activated T cells cytoplasmic 1 (NFATc1)-binding sites play a major role in the stimulation of CTSK gene expression by receptor activator of NFκB ligand...
