1 18951876 Insulin gene is a target in activin receptor-like kinase 7 signaling pathway in pancreatic beta-cells.
2 18951876 In this study, human insulin promoter was activated by Smad2, Smad3 and the pancreatic and duodenal homeobox factor-1 (PDX-1) in the ALK7 pathway.
3 18951876 Phosphorylated Smad2/Smad3 and PDX-1 were bound to insulin gene with Nodal and Activin AB, and the phosphorylated Smad2/Smad3 interacted with PDX-1.
4 18951876 These results indicate that one of the direct target genes of Nodal and Activin AB signals is the insulin gene in pancreatic beta-cells and that PDX-1 is directly involved in the ALK7-Smad pathway.
5 18951876 Insulin gene is a target in activin receptor-like kinase 7 signaling pathway in pancreatic beta-cells.
6 18951876 In this study, human insulin promoter was activated by Smad2, Smad3 and the pancreatic and duodenal homeobox factor-1 (PDX-1) in the ALK7 pathway.
7 18951876 Phosphorylated Smad2/Smad3 and PDX-1 were bound to insulin gene with Nodal and Activin AB, and the phosphorylated Smad2/Smad3 interacted with PDX-1.
8 18951876 These results indicate that one of the direct target genes of Nodal and Activin AB signals is the insulin gene in pancreatic beta-cells and that PDX-1 is directly involved in the ALK7-Smad pathway.
9 21353873 A type I receptor, which is a component of the complex, is known as an activin receptor-like kinase (ALK); currently seven ALKs (ALK1-ALK7) have been identified in humans.
10 21353873 Activins signaling, which is mediated by ALK4 and 7 together with ActRIIA and IIB, plays a critical role in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, development/neogenesis, and glucose homeostatic control of pancreatic endocrine cells; the insulin gene is regulated by these signaling pathways via ALK7, which is a receptor for Activins AB and B and Nodal.
11 23518926 Further study of Dicer-KO adrenals demonstrated a significant loss of steroidogenic factor 1-expressing cortical cells that was histologically evident as early as E16.5 coincident with an increase in p21 and cleaved-caspase 3 staining in the cortex.
12 23518926 Consistent with the absence of Dicer and the associated loss of miRNA-mediated mRNA degradation, we observed an up-regulation of a small subset of adrenal transcripts in Dicer-KO mice, most notably the transcripts coded by the genes Nr6a1 and Acvr1c.
13 23518926 Indeed, several miRNAs, including let-7, miR-34c, and miR-21, that are predicted to target these genes for degradation, were also markedly down-regulated in Dicer-KO adrenals.
