Abstract

Calbindin D9k (CaBP) is critical for intestinal calcium absorption; its in vivo expression is restricted to differentiated enterocytes of the small intestine. Our goal was to identify factors controlling the transcriptional regulation of this gene in the human intestine. Both the natural gene and a 4600-bp promoter construct were strongly regulated by differentiation (>100-fold) but not by treatment with 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D (<2-fold) in the Caco-2 clone TC7. Deletion-mutation studies revealed that conserved promoter sequences for cdx-2 (at -3158 bp) and hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-1 (at -3131 and at -98 bp) combined to control CaBP expression during differentiation. Other putative response elements were not important for CaBP regulation in TC7 cells (CCAAT enhancer binding protein, pancreatic duodenal homebox-1 (pdx-1), a proximal cdx-2 element). Mutation of the distal HNF-1 site had the greatest impact on CaBP gene expression through disruption of HNF-1alpha binding; both basal and differentiation-mediated CaBP expression was reduced by 80%. In contrast, mutation of the distal cdx-2 element reduced only basal CaBP expression. Whereas a 60% reduction of CaBP mRNA in the duodenum of HNF-1alpha null mice confirmed the physiol...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.
