摘要
Sodium butyrate, an erythroid differentiation inducer and a histone deacetylase inhibitor, increases G alpha (i2), levels in differentiating K562 cells, Here we show that sodium butyrate induces Gal, gene transcription via sequences at -50/-36 and -92/-85 in the G alpha (i), gene promoter. Both sequences contain core sequence motif for Spl binding; electrophoretic mobility shift as well as supershift assays confirmed binding to Spl, Transcription from the G alpha (i2) gene promoter was also activated by two other histone deacetylase inhibitors, trichostatin A and Helminthsporium carbonium toxin (HC toxin), which also induce erythroblastic differentiation in K562 cells. However, hydroxyurea, a potent erythroid differentiation inducer in these cells, did not activate transcription from this gene promoter, indicating that promoter activation is inducer-specific, Mutations within the Spl sites at -50/-36 and -92/-85 in the Gai, gene promoter substantially decreased transcriptional activation by sodium butyrate, trichostatin A, or HC toxin, Transfection with constitutively activated ERKs indicated that this promoter can be activated through the MEK-ERK signal transduction pathway. Inhibition of the MEK-ERK pathway with U0126 or reduction in the expression of endogenous ERK with an antisense oligonucleotide to ERK significantly inhibited sodium butyrate- and HC toxin-induced transcription but had no effect on trichostatin A-induced transcription, Inhibition of the JNK and p38 MAPKs, using selective inhibitors, had no effect on sodium butyrate-induced transcription. In cells in which sodium butyrate induction of promoter activation had been inhibited by various concentrations of U0126, constitutively activated ERK2 reversed this inhibition. These results show that the MEK-ERK signal transduction pathway is important in butyrate signaling, which eventually converges in the cell nucleus.
