Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nuclear Receptors focuses on the structural analysis of nuclear receptors from the initial work using isolated protein domains to the more recent exciting developments investigating the conformational shape of full-length receptor complexes. The book also reviews the structure of key nuclear receptor co-regulatory proteins. It brings together, for the first time, a comprehensive review of nuclear receptor structure and the importance of receptor conformation underpinning allosteric regulation by different ligands (hormone, drugs, DNA response elements, protein-protein interactions) and receptor activity. The nuclear receptor superfamily, including receptors for steroid hormones and non-steroid ligands, are pivotal to normal physiology, regulating processes as diverse as reproduction, metabolism, the immune system and brain development. The first members of the family were cloned over 25 years ago, which heralded in the idea of a superfamily of intracellular receptor proteins that bound small molecule ligands: classical steroid hormones, vitamins, fatty acids and other products of metabolism. These signals are then transmitted through multiprotein receptor-DNA complexes, leading to the regulation of target genes, often in a cell-selective manner. The cloning of the receptor cDNAs also ushered in an era of unparalleled analysis of the mechanisms of action of these ligand-activated transcription factors.

Download or read book DNA Repair, Redox Regulation and Modulation of Estrogen Receptor Alpha Mediated Transcription written by Carol Dianne Curtis-Ducey and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interaction of estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha) with 17beta-estradiol (E2) facilitates binding of the receptor to estrogen response elements (EREs) in target genes, which in turn leads to recruitment of coregulatory proteins. To better understand how estrogen-responsive genes are regulated, our laboratory identified a number of proteins that associate with the DNA-bound ERalpha. Our studies demonstrate that the nonmetastatic protein 23 homolog 1 (NM23-H1) interacts with ERalpha, increases ERalpha-ERE complex formation, influences ERalpha-mediated transcription and associates with the promoter region of the endogenous estrogen-responsive progesterone receptor (PR) gene. Furthermore, we show that a second protein, Apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 or redox factor-1 (Ape1/Ref-1), interacts with ERalpha, promotes the ERalpha-ERE interaction, influences ERalpha-mediated transactivation, and selectively associates with endogenous, estrogen-responsive genes in MCF-7 cells. Our findings suggest that NM23-H1 and Ape1/Ref-1 are instrumental in modulating expression of estrogen-responsive genes. Interestingly, we demonstrate that Ape1/Ref-1 and NM23-H1, as well as the oxidative stress proteins Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1), thioredoxin (Trx) and protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) are overexpressed in human breast cancer tissues. These studies provide a novel link between DNA repair, redox regulation and modulation of ERalpha-mediated transcription.

Download or read book Gene Regulation by Steroid Hormones IV written by Arun K. Roy and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first Meadowbrook Symposium was held in 1978 and during the intervening ten years our knowledge concerning how steroid hormones function at the level of gene expression has advanced by leaps and bounds. In this volume, which sum marizes our fourth meeting, these advances are very evident. What seemed like science fiction ten years ago has become commonplace science. Who would have imagined that we could synthesize a nucleotide sequence that binds a specific steroid receptor and acts as a controlling element for gene expression? No one; but as is evident from the results reported in several chapters, this technique is yielding a wealth of information. Using these and other techniques it has become apparent that gene transcription is controlled by interactions between transacting factors and DNA recognition sequences (response elements). These transacting factors appear to be members of a large gene family that includes steroid hormone receptors, transcription factors, protooncogenes and homeobox proteins. Thus a great deal has been learned, but as usual, questions remain. Many of these questions are posed by the findings and observations found in several chapters in this volume. Non hormone binding forms of steroid receptors and their relevance to receptor down regulation, recycling and biological response remain a mystery. The quantitative relationship between receptor binding and biological response still presents agonizing problems. These and many other intriguing questions are discussed in this volume and set the stage for what should be a most rewarding time in endocrinology. Winter 1989 ARUN K.

This book was released on 2000-02-03 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some investigators have hypothesized that estrogens and other hormonally active agents found in the environment might be involved in breast cancer increases and sperm count declines in humans as well as deformities and reproductive problems seen in wildlife. This book looks in detail at the science behind the ominous prospect of "estrogen mimics" threatening health and well-being, from the level of ecosystems and populations to individual people and animals. The committee identifies research needs and offers specific recommendations to decision-makers. This authoritative volume: Critically evaluates the literature on hormonally active agents in the environment and identifies known and suspected toxicologic mechanisms and effects of fish, wildlife, and humans. Examines whether and how exposure to hormonally active agents occursâ€"in diet, in pharmaceuticals, from industrial releases into the environmentâ€"and why the debate centers on estrogens. Identifies significant uncertainties, limitations of knowledge, and weaknesses in the scientific literature. The book presents a wealth of information and investigates a wide range of examples across the spectrum of life that might be related to these agents.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to develop novel DNA ligands that offer the potential for the treatment of human breast cancer. The growth of many human breast carcinomas is regulated by the female hormone estrogen through the action of the estrogen receptor protein. The logic of our approach was to develop small, cell-permeable molecules that prevent the activation of downstream genes by the DNA-binding protein estrogen receptor. A series of pyrrole/imidizole polyamides have synthesized in the laboratory of Dr. Peter Dervan at The California Institute of Technology and supplied to our laboratory. These polyamides were designed to bind the 6 bp half-site recognized by estrogen receptor. Standard DNase footprinting methods were used to measure the binding affinities of the synthetic ligands for their target sequences. A series of polyamides were screened for binding affinities and sequence specificity. We have used recombinant human estrogen receptor protein in DNA binding studies with the same target ERE sequences. Using DNase footprinting methods and gel mobility shift assays, we optimized conditions for ER-DNA interactions and we have shown that the ERE-binding polyamides inhibit ER binding to EREs. Future studies will examine whether these compounds are effective inhibitors of ER-dependent gene transcription in breast carcinoma cells in culture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text summarizes recent progress on the regulation of target gene transcription by steroid hormone receptors. Steroid hormones travel via the blood stream to thier target cells which they enter by diffusion. Steroid hormone receptors exist in these cells in inactive forms either in the cytoplasm or nucleus. Upon binding to their respective hormone ligands, the receptors go through a transformation step and become activated. The activated receptor can then activate transcription of hormone response genes.
