Androgen Receptor Binding Sites Identified by a GREF GATA Model
doi:10.1016/j.jmb.2005.09.009 J. Mol. Biol. (2005) 353, 763–771 COMMUNICATION Androgen Receptor Binding Sites Identified by a GREF_GATA Model Katsuaki Masuda1, Thomas Werner2, Shilpi Maheshwari1 Matthias Frisch2, Soyon Oh1, Gyorgy Petrovics1, Klaus May2 Vasantha Srikantan1, Shiv Srivastava1 and Albert Dobi1* 1Center for Prostate Disease Changes in transcriptional regulation can be permissive for tumor Research, Department of progression by allowing for selective growth advantage of tumor cells. Surgery, Uniformed Services Tumor suppressors can effectively inhibit this process. The PMEPA1 gene, a University, Rockville, MD potent inhibitor of prostate cancer cell growth is an androgen-regulated 20852, USA gene. We addressed the question of whether or not androgen receptor can directly bind to specific PMEPA1 promoter upstream sequences. To test this 2Genomatix Software GmbH hypothesis we extended in silico prediction of androgen receptor binding D-80339 Munich, Germany sites by a modeling approach and verified the actual binding by in vivo chromatin immunoprecipitation assay. Promoter upstream sequences of highly androgen-inducible genes were examined from microarray data of prostate cancer cells for transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs). Results were analyzed to formulate a model for the description of specific androgen receptor binding site context in these sequences. In silico analysis and subsequent experimental verification of the selected sequences suggested that a model that combined a GREF and a GATA TFBS was sufficient for predicting a class of functional androgen receptor binding sites. The GREF matrix family represents androgen receptor, glucocorticoid receptor and progesterone receptor binding sites and the GATA matrix family represents GATA binding protein 1–6 binding sites. -
Eda-Activated Relb Recruits an SWI/SNF (BAF) Chromatin-Remodeling Complex and Initiates Gene Transcription in Skin Appendage Formation
Eda-activated RelB recruits an SWI/SNF (BAF) chromatin-remodeling complex and initiates gene transcription in skin appendage formation Jian Simaa,1,2, Zhijiang Yana,1, Yaohui Chena, Elin Lehrmanna, Yongqing Zhanga, Ramaiah Nagarajaa, Weidong Wanga, Zhong Wangb, and David Schlessingera,2 aLaboratory of Genetics and Genomics, National Institute on Aging/NIH-Intramural Research Program, Baltimore, MD 21224; and bDepartment of Cardiac Surgery, Cardiovascular Research Center, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI 48109 Edited by Elaine Fuchs, The Rockefeller University, New York, NY, and approved June 28, 2018 (received for review January 23, 2018) Ectodysplasin A (Eda) signaling activates NF-κB during skin ap- during organ development induce distinct BAF complexes to pendage formation, but how Eda controls specific gene transcrip- modulate gene expression. tion remains unclear.

We further reveal that Tfg is initially induced by Eda-mediated tein, Tfg (TRK-fusion gene). Thus, Eda/NF-κB signaling operates RelB activation and then bridges RelB and BAF for subsequent gene through a BAF complex to regulate specific gene expression in regulation. The BAF component BAF250a is particularly up-regulated in organ development, which may exemplify a more general paradigm skin appendages, and epidermal knockout of BAF250a impairs skin for gene-specific regulation in many other systems. -

Effect of Tnfα Stimulation on Expression of Kidney Risk
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Efect of TNFα stimulation on expression of kidney risk infammatory proteins in human umbilical vein endothelial cells cultured in hyperglycemia Zaipul I. Md Dom1,2, Caterina Pipino1,2,3, Bozena Krolewski1,2, Kristina O’Neil1, Eiichiro Satake1,2 & Andrzej S. Krolewski1,2,4* We recently identifed a kidney risk infammatory signature (KRIS), comprising 6 TNF receptors (including TNFR1 and TNFR2) and 11 infammatory proteins. Elevated levels of these proteins in circulation were strongly associated with risk of the development of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) during 10-year follow-up. It has been hypothesized that elevated levels of these proteins in circulation might refect (be markers of) systemic exposure to TNFα. In this in vitro study, we examined intracellular and extracellular levels of these proteins in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) exposed to TNFα in the presence of hyperglycemia. KRIS proteins as well as 1300 other proteins were measured using the SOMAscan proteomics platform. Four KRIS proteins (including TNFR1) were down-regulated and only 1 protein (IL18R1) was up-regulated in the extracellular fraction of TNFα-stimulated HUVECs. In the intracellular fraction, one KRIS protein was down- regulated (CCL14) and 1 protein was up-regulated (IL18R1). The levels of other KRIS proteins were not afected by exposure to TNFα. HUVECs exposed to a hyperglycemic and infammatory environment also showed signifcant up-regulation of a distinct set of 53 proteins (mainly in extracellular fraction). In our previous study, circulating levels of these proteins were not associated with progression to ESKD in diabetes. Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) is a potent pro-infammatory cytokine that exerts its pleiotropic efects on a wide variety of cell types and plays a vital role in the pathogenesis of infammatory diseases 1,2. -
