Neocortical c-fos mRNA transcription in repeated, brief, acute seizures: Is c-fos a coincidence detector? [PDF]
The effect of acute brief seizures on neocortical c-fos expression was investigated in rats injected with 5 mg/kg 4-aminopyridine. Electroencephalography in freely moving animals with implanted neocortical electrodes detected an average of 2.67 tonic-clonic convulsions within 1 h following the 4-AP treatment.

Stimulus-specific combinatorial functionality of neuronal c-fos enhancers
The c-fos gene (also known as Fos) is induced by a broad range of stimuli and is a reliable marker for neural activity. Its induction mechanism and available reporter mouse lines are based exclusively on c-fos promoter activity.

Enhanced c-Fos expression in the central amygdala correlates with increased thigmotaxis in rats with peripheral nerve injury [PDF]
Pain is associated with affective, cognitive and sensory dysfunction. Animal models can be used to observe ethologically relevant behaviours such as thigmotaxis, giving insight into how ongoing sensory abnormalities influence natural rodent behaviours ...

c-Fos is a good biological marker for detecting the pathogenesis of central nervous system disorders. Few studies are reported on the change in myocardial infarction-induced c-Fos expression in the paralimbic regions. Thus, in this study, we investigated

c-Fos induction by gut hormones and extracellular ATP in osteoblastic-like cell lines [PDF]
It is widely accepted that the c-Fos gene has a role in proliferation and differentiation of bone cells. ATP-induced c-Fos activation is relevant to bone homeostasis, because nucleotides that are present in the environment of bone cells can contribute to

Papillomavirus-Associated Tumor Formation Critically Depends on c-Fos Expression Induced by Viral Protein E2 and Bromodomain Protein Brd4. [PDF]
We investigated the mechanism of how the papillomavirus E2 transcription factor can activate promoters through activator protein (AP)1 binding sites. Using an unbiased approach with an inducible cell line expressing the viral transcription factor E2 and ...

Intracellular Mediators of c-fos Induction
Transcription of the c-fos proto-oncogene is rapidly and transiently induced in cells exposed to a remarkably wide range of external stimuli, including growth and differentiation factors, neurotransmitters, drugs, and mechanical stimuli (for review, see Curran 1988).

c-Fos expression induced by electroacupuncture at the Zusanli point in rats submitted to repeated immobilization [PDF]
In laboratory animals, acupuncture needs to be performed on either anesthetized or, if unanesthetized, restrained subjects. Both procedures up-regulate c-Fos expression in several areas of the central nervous system, representing therefore a major ...
