Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Homo sapiens tumor necrosis factor TNFalpha induces GGT promoter transactivation, mRNA and protein synthesis, as well as enzymatic activity. Remicade, a clinically used anti-TNFalpha antibody, small interfering RNA against p50 and p65 nuclear factor NF-kB isoforms, curcumin, a well characterized natural NF-kB inhibitor, as well as a dominant negative inhibitor IkBa, prevent GGT activation at various levels. Over-expression of receptor of TNFalpha-1, TNFR-associated factor-2 TRAF2, TNFR-1 associated death domain TRADD, dominant negative IkBa or NF-kB p65 further confirm GGT promoter activation via NF-kB.Mutation of the NF-kB site located at 110 additionally inhibits TNFalpha-induced promoter induction up
