Abstract

To elucidate the mechanism underlying the suppressive regulation of hST8Sia I expression in retinoic acid (RA)-induced SK-MEL-2 cells, we characterized the promoter region of the hST8Sia I gene. Functional analysis of the 5‘-flanking region of the hST8Sia I gene by the transient expression method showed that the -1146 to -646 region, which contains putative binding sites for transcription factors c-Ets-1, CREB, AP-1 and NF-kB, functions as the RA-repressive promoter in SK-MEL-2 cells. Site-directed mutagenesis and ChIP analyses indicated that the NF-kB binding site at -731 to -722 is crucial for the RA-induced repression of hST8Sia I in SK-MEL-2 cells. In addition, the transcriptional activity of hST8Sia I suppressed by RA in SK-MEL-2 cells was strongly inhibited by extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK) inhibitor U0126 and protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor GO6976, as determined by RT-PCR and luciferase assay of hST8Sia I promoter containing the -1146 to -646 regions. These results suggest that RA markedly modulates transcriptional regulation of hST8Sia I gene expression through the PKC/ERK signal pathway in SK-MEL-2 cells.

흑색종세포주 SK-MEL-2에서 레티노이드에 의한 GD3합성효소(hST8Sia I)의 발현억제기작을 규명하게 위하여 hST8Sia I의 프로모터 활성을 조사해 본 결과 -1146에서 -646영역에서 레티노이드에 의한 활성억제를 나타내었다. 또한 부위특이적 변이와 ChIP분석은 -731에서 -722영역에 위치한 전사인자NF-kB 결합부위가 hST8Sia I의 레티노이드에 의한 활성억제에 중요하게 관여하고 있음을 나타내었다. 이러한 발현 억제는 PKC/ERK 신호전달경로를 통하여 일어난다는 것을 신호전달경로 저해제를 이용한 RT-PCR과 프로모터 활성조사에 의해 규명하였다.
