Helicobacter pylori Activates Mitogen-activated Protein Kinase Cascades and Induces Expression of the Proto-oncogenes c-fos and c-jun [PDF]
Helicobacter pylori is an etiological agent in the development of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma and gastric adenocarcinoma. Patients infected with H. pylori carry a 3-6-fold increased risk of developing cancer compared with uninfected individuals. H.

Proto-Oncogene c-fos Is Transcriptionally Regulated by Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) and PTH-Related Protein in a Cyclic Adenosine Monophosphate-Dependent Manner in Osteoblastic Cells [PDF]
PTH and PTH-related protein (PTHrP) bind to the PTH-1 (PTH/PTHrP) receptor and produce anabolic and catabolic effects in bone. To investigate postreceptor mechanisms of action, MC3T3-E1 cells were induced to differentiate to optimize PTH-1 receptor expression, and differentiated MC3T3-E1 cells were treated with varying doses of PTH (1-34) for 1 h ...

Multiple mechanisms of growth hormone-regulated gene transcription [PDF]
Diverse physiological actions of growth hormone (GH) are mediated by changes in gene transcription. Transcription can be regulated at several levels, including post-translational modification of transcription factors, and formation of multiprotein ...

Transcriptomic and ChIP-sequence interrogation of EGFR signaling in HER2+ breast cancer cells reveals a dynamic chromatin landscape and S100 genes as targets. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:The Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR/HER1) can be activated by several ligands including Transforming Growth Factor alpha (TGF-α) and Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF).

Thrombin Protease-activated Receptor-1 Signals through Gq- and G13-initiated MAPK Cascades Regulating c-Jun Expression to Induce Cell Transformation [PDF]
Although the ability of G protein-coupled receptors to stimulate normal and aberrant cell growth has been intensely investigated, the precise nature of the molecular mechanisms underlying their transforming potential are still not fully understood.

KDM2B/FBXL10 targets c-Fos for ubiquitylation and degradation in response to mitogenic stimulation. [PDF]
KDM2B (also known as FBXL10) controls stem cell self-renewal, somatic cell reprogramming and senescence, and tumorigenesis. KDM2B contains multiple functional domains, including a JmjC domain that catalyzes H3K36 demethylation and a CxxC zinc-finger that

Activation of endogenous c-fos proto-oncogene expression by human T-cell leukemia virus type I-encoded p40tax protein in the human T-cell line, Jurkat [PDF]
We examined the ability of the trans-acting factor p40tax of human T-cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-I), which is thought to be a crucial molecule in T-cell transformation by HTLV-I, to activate expression of a set of endogenous cellular genes related to T-cell proliferation.

Exosome-mediated transfer of miR-222 is sufficient to increase tumor malignancy in melanoma [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Growing evidence is showing that metastatic cell populations are able to transfer their characteristics to less malignant cells. Exosomes (EXOs) are membrane vesicles of endocytic origin able to convey their cargo of mRNAs, microRNAs (miRs),

Hexachlorobenzene-Induced Early Changes in Ornithine Decarboxylase and Protein Tyrosine Kinase Activities, Polyamines and c-Myc, c-Fos and c-Jun Proto-Oncogenes in Rat Liver [PDF]
El hexaclorobenceno (HCB) es un compuesto químico lipófilo que se distribuye ampliamente en el medio ambiente. Se sabe que el HCB causa tumores hepáticos en animales de experimentación. En el presente estudio se investigó el efecto in vivo del tratamiento con HCB sobre las actividades de la ornitina descarboxilasa (ODC) y la proteína tirosina quinasa ...
