The transcription factor Ap-1 regulates monkey 20α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase promoter activity in CHO cells

Abstract: BackgroundMonkey 20α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (20α-HSD) is a catabolic enzyme responsible for converting progesterone into biologically inactive 20α-hydroxyprogesterone, thereby playing a key role in the estrous cycle or pregnancy and allowing ovulation and parturition to occur in most mammalian animals. Monkey 20α-HSD was highly abundant in ovarian and placental tissues during the pre-ovulation and pre-parturition phase and was primarily localized in the syncytiotrophoblast of the placenta. In this study,… Show more

“…41 The AP-1 family of TFs were previously implicated in regulation of 20α-HSD gene promoter activity in the monkey. 42 In this study, we determined that the 5′ flanking region of AKR1C1 (−860 to +43) is responsive…”

“…41 The AP-1 family of TFs were previously implicated in regulation of 20α-HSD gene promoter activity in the monkey. 42 In this study, we determined that the 5′ flanking region of AKR1C1 (−860 to +43) is responsive to LPS and TPA. Moreover, blocking NF-кB or AP-1 activity, using specific inhibitors, attenuated AKR1C1 promoter activity suggesting that both TFs regulate human AKR1C1 transcription.…”

“…In accordance, apoptosis signals were stronger in pseudomales than in males. Moreover, the rnf34 promoter clone has an obvious activity, and it is expected that there are multiple transcription factor binding sites related to apoptosis, such as JUN and SP1 [32,33]. Whether W spermatocyte/spermatozoa undergo apoptosis needs further study.…”

“…The PCR conditions were: 1 cycle of pre-denaturation at 95 °C for 5 min; 30 cycles of denaturation at 94 °C for 40 s, annealing at 64 °C for 40 s, extension at 72 °C for 50 s; 1 final cycle of extension at 72 °C for 10 min; and cooling to 4 °C. Primers for the glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate gene ( GAPDH ) were used for normalization of EGFP expression, and the primer sequences were forward primer (5′-ACC ACA GTC CAT GCC ATC AC-3′); and reverse primer (5′-TCC ACC ACC CTG TTG CTG TA-3′) [2] . The PCR product (10 uL) was analyzed using gel electrophoresis, and the expected size was 400 bp.…”
