Androgen receptor dampens tissue factor expression via nuclear factor-κB and early growth response protein 1. [PDF]
Essentials Androgen deprivation increases the rate of venous thromboembolism in prostate cancer patients. We characterized androgen receptor-mediated tissue factor regulation in prostate epithelial cells. Androgen receptor is dampening tissue factor expression in prostate epithelial cells. Androgen deprivation could enhance tissue factor expression and

GnRH Regulates Early Growth Response Protein 1 Transcription Through Multiple Promoter Elements [PDF]
Pulsatile secretion of GnRH is the major regulator of gonadotropin (LH, FSH) gene expression and secretion. Recently, GnRH has been shown to rapidly stimulate the expression of early growth response protein-1 (Egr-1), a transcription factor that is essential for LHbeta gene expression in the pituitary. In this study, we examined the regulatory elements

Sustained Expression of Early Growth Response Protein-1 Blocks Angiogenesis and Tumor Growth [PDF]
Abstract Transient induction of the transcription factor early growth response protein-1 (EGR-1) plays a pivotal role in the transcriptional response of endothelial cells to the angiogenic growth factors vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), which are produced by most tumors and are ...

Examining the role of EGR1 during viral infections
Early growth response 1 (EGR1) is a multifunctional mammalian transcription factor capable of both enhancing and/or inhibiting gene expression. EGR1 can be activated by a wide array of stimuli such as exposure to growth factors, cytokines, apoptosis, and

Early growth response protein 1 acts as an activator of SOX18 promoter [PDF]
Sex-determining region Y box 18 (Sox18/SOX18) gene is an important regulator of vascular development playing a role in endothelial cell specification or differentiation, angiogenesis and atherogenesis. The aim of this study was to perform comprehensive functional characterization of the human SOX18 promoter, including determination of transcription ...

WNT11 is a direct target of early growth response protein 1
WNT11 is a member of the non-canonical Wnt family and plays a crucial role in tumor progression. However, the regulatory mechanisms underlying WNT11 expression are unclear. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFα) is a major inflammatory cytokine produced in the tumor microenvironment and contributes to processes associated with tumor progression, such as ...
