Positive regulation of the human macrophage stimulating protein gene transcription. Identification of a new hepatocyte nuclear factor-4 (HNF-4) binding element and evidence that indicates direct association between NF-Y and HNF-4.

Abstract excerpt

We previously reported that the transcription of the human macrophage stimulating protein (MSP) gene was positively regulated by the binding of NF-Y to the CAATT sequence in the promoter region of this gene. Here we confirmed our previous results and further characterized the MSP promoter. Luciferase assay with deletion constructs showed the importance of the region, +32 to +39, for the promoter activity in Hep3B...
