Regulation of type I collagen genes expression

Abstract: Type I collagen is the major component of many extracellular matrices, and its accumulation characterizes most fibrotic processes. It is synthesized by a small number of discrete cell types, including fibroblasts, osteoblasts and odontoblasts. Analysis of transgenic mice harbouring different segments of the promoters of the mouse pro-alpha1 (I) and pro-alpha2 (I) genes has led to the conclusion that this tissue-specific expression is controlled by different cis-acting elements which are responsible for the exp… Show more

“…Within bone, Col3.6 is expressed in precursor cells in the suture mesenchyme, as well as in preosteoblasts and the fibrous layers of the inner and outer periosteum and their downstream progeny (24). In contrast, Col2.3 and Col3.2 are identified specifically in osteoblasts and osteocytes (26)(27)(28)(29). We surmise that the reported osteoporotic phenotype of Col3.6-Cre:Rosa-Nicd Tg/Tg may be caused by early and constant Nicd activation that likely interrupts physiological lineage transition from the preosteoblast into mature osteoblasts and osteocytes (15).…”

“…S3). To circumvent osteosclerosis resulting from the noninducible, persistent expression of Nicd by Dmp1-Cre, we selected Col3.2-CreERT2 to achieve a spatiotemporal control of Nicd activity in mature osteoblasts and osteocytes in bone, as previously reported (26)(27)(28)(29). Of note is that the expression of the 3.2-kb Col1a1 promoter is restricted to mature osteoblasts and osteocytes similarly to the 2.3-kb Col1a1 promoter, but is distinct from that of the Col3.6 promoter.…”

“…Whereas c-Fos expression in young and aged skin is unaltered, c-Jun expression is higher in aged skin than in young skin (8). Some recent reports have suggested that the major regulatory mechanism of procollagen expression involves transcriptional control (28)(29)(30)(31). Decreased procollagen expression is partly mediated by c-Jun, which is induced by UV light and interferes with procollagen transcription (9).…”

“…Type I collagen consists of three polypeptide chains in a triple helix and the helix consists of two ␣-1 and a single ␣-2 chain, each ϳ1050 aa in length (41,42). Type I collagen is widely distributed and is a major component of the anterior uveal tract (43,44).…”
