1 11046146 Thyroglobulin repression of thyroid transcription factor 1 (TTF-1) gene expression is mediated by decreased DNA binding of nuclear factor I proteins which control constitutive TTF-1 expression.
2 11046146 We show that the region between bp -264 and -153 on the TTF-1 promoter contains two nuclear factor I (NFI) elements whose function is involved in TG-mediated suppression.
3 11046146 Thus, NFI binding to these elements is critical for constitutive expression of TTF-1; TG decreases NFI binding to the NFI elements in association with TG repression.
4 11046146 In contrast to the contribution of NFI proteins to constitutive gene expression in other systems, we demonstrate that follicular TG transcriptionally represses all NFI RNAs (NFI-A, -B, -C, and -X) in association with decreased NFI binding and that the RNA levels decrease as early as 4 h after TG treatment.
5 11046146 We conclude that NFI binding to two NFI elements, at bp -264 to -153, positively regulates TTF-1 expression and controls constitutive TTF-1 levels.
6 11046146 TG mediates the repression of TTF-1 gene expression by decreasing NFI RNA and protein levels, as well as by altering the binding activity of NFI, which is redox controlled.
7 22028663 Global mapping of cell type-specific open chromatin by FAIRE-seq reveals the regulatory role of the NFI family in adipocyte differentiation.
8 22028663 Computational motif analyses of the adipocyte-specific FAIRE peaks revealed enrichment of a binding motif for nuclear family I (NFI) transcription factors.
9 22028663 Indeed, ChIP assay showed that NFI occupy the adipocyte-specific FAIRE peaks and/or the PPARγ binding sites near PPARγ, C/EBPα, and aP2 genes.
10 22028663 Overexpression of dominant-negative NFIA or siRNA-mediated knockdown of NFIA or NFIB significantly suppressed both induction of genes and lipid accumulation during differentiation, suggesting a physiological function of these factors in the adipogenic program.
11 22492282 Plasma adiponectin and adiponectin receptor (AdipoR1) in muscle are down-regulated in obesity.
12 22492282 Analysis of muscle-specific AdipoR1 knockout mice revealed the pivotal role of adiponectin/AdipoR1 in the regulation of mitochondrial biogenesis via AMPK- and SIRT1-mediated PGC-1α activation as well as Ca(2+)-dependent up-regulation of PGC-1α expression.
13 22492282 Reduced adiponectin/AdipoR1 signals in muscle in obesity appear to cause PGC-1α inactivation as well as down-regulation and consequently impaired mitochondrial biogenesis and insulin resistance.
14 22492282 Computational motif analyses of adipocyte-specific FAIRE peaks confirmed PPARγ and CCAAT-enhancer binding proteins (C/EBPs) on the top list, consistent with their crucial roles in adipogenic transcription, and also revealed NFIA and NFIB to be important regulators of proper adipocyte differentiation.
