The IGF-binding protein (IGFBP) family consists of six proteins that are expressed and secreted in different tissues. The proteins are regulators of physiological processes throughout the body by modulating the activity of IGF-I and IGF-II. In this article, we describe the coordinated expression of IGFBP5 and MN1 in meningiomas. MN1 is a transcriptional co-activator and we show that MN1 stimulates the IGFBP5 promoter in Hep3B cells. A CACCC-containing sequence, located 140 bp upstream of the transcription start site of the promoter, is required for MN1 action. This sequence matches with the CACCCAC consensus sequence that was selected in an oligonucleotide selection assay performed for MN1. The CACCC element has also been shown to be important for induction of the IGFBP5 promoter by retinoic acid (RA) and progesterone (Pg). We were unable to confirm the effect of Pg on the promoter in Hep3B and U2-osteosarcoma cells regardless of the presence of MN1. On the other hand, we show that induction of the promoter by RA depends on co-expressed MN1 in Hep3B cells. MN1TEL, a leukemia-related fusion protein containing parts of the MN1 and TEL (ETV6) genes, is capable of stimulating the IGFBP5 promoter but is unable to cooperate with RA in Hep3B cells. This suggests that the effects of RA can be negatively affected in leukemias caused by MN1TEL.

Background: Activator protein-1 (AP-1) represents a transcription factor family that has garnered growing attention for its extensive involvement in tumor biology. However, the roles of the AP-1 family in the evolution of lung cancer remain poorly characterized. FBJ Murine Osteosarcoma Viral Oncogene Homolog B (FOSB), a classic AP-1 family member, was previously reported to play bewilderingly two-polarized roles in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) as an enigmatic double-edged sword, for which the reasons and significance warrant further elucidation.

Background: In addition to being secreted into the intercellular spaces by exocytosis, insulin-like growth factor binding protein 5 (IGFBP5) may also remain in the cytosol or be transported to the nucleus. Depending on the different cellular context and subcellular distribution, IGFBP5 can act as a tumor suppressor or promoter through insulin-like growth factor -dependent or -independent mechanisms. Yet, little is known about the impacts of IGFBP5 on acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and its underlying mechanism.

Identifying tissue-specific molecular signatures of active regulatory elements is critical to understanding gene regulatory mechanisms. In this study, transcription start sites (TSS) and enhancers were identified using Cap analysis of gene expression (CAGE) across endometrial stromal cell (ESC) samples obtained from women with ( = 4) and without endometriosis ( = 4). ESC TSSs and enhancers were compared to those reported in other tissue and cell types in FANTOM5 and were integrated with RNA-seq and ATAC-seq data from the same samples for regulatory activity and network analyses.

The balance between the differentiation and self-renewal of satellite cells (SCs) is essential for skeletal muscle homeostasis and regeneration. Our knowledge of this regulatory process is incomplete. Using global and conditional knockout mice as in vivo models and isolated satellite cells as in vitro system, we investigated the regulatory mechanisms of IL34 in the process of skeletal muscle regeneration in vivo and in vitro.
