Inhibition of hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 transcriptional activity by the nuclear factor κB pathway [PDF]
HNF-4 (hepatocyte nuclear factor 4) is a key regulator of liver-specific gene expression in mammals. We have shown previously that the activity of the human APOC3 (apolipoprotein C-III) promoter is positively regulated by the anti-inflammatory cytokine TGFβ (transforming growth factor β) and its effectors Smad3 (similar to mothers against ...

ATF4 selectively regulates heat nociception and contributes to kinesin-mediated TRPM3 trafficking
The molecular mechanisms mediating nociception are unclear. Here, the authors show that the Activating Transcription Factor 4 (ATF4) is important for the response to heat nociception in mice and ATF4 role in mediating protein trafficking in dorsal root ...

OPA1 deletion in brown adipose tissue improves thermoregulation and systemic metabolism via FGF21
Adrenergic stimulation of brown adipocytes alters mitochondrial dynamics, including the mitochondrial fusion protein optic atrophy 1 (OPA1). However, direct mechanisms linking OPA1 to brown adipose tissue (BAT) physiology are incompletely understood.

The Metabotropic GABAB Receptor Directly Interacts with the Activating Transcription Factor 4 [PDF]
G protein-coupled receptors regulate gene expression by cellular signaling cascades that target transcription factors and their recognition by specific DNA sequences. In the central nervous system, heteromeric metabotropic gamma-aminobutyric acid type B (GABA(B)) receptors through adenylyl cyclase regulate cAMP levels, which may control transcription ...

Turnover and function of DNA methylation at transcription factor binding sites [PDF]
Cell type identity is largely determined by regulatory networks consistent of various transcription factors. Transcription factor activity requires interaction with DNA and thus critically depends on the accessibility of binding motifs.

Activating transcription factor 4 confers a multidrug resistance phenotype to gastric cancer cells through transactivation of SIRT1 expression. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Multidrug resistance (MDR) in gastric cancer remains a major challenge to clinical treatment. Activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4) is a stress response gene involved in homeostasis and cellular protection.
