Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) BB is a mitogen that stimulates bone resorption and increases collagenase 3 transcription in osteoblasts, although the mechanisms involved are as yet unknown. We examined the effect of PDGF BB on collagenase 3 transcription in cultures of osteoblasts from fetal
Bone cells are a prime target for the biological function of the fos/jun (activating protein-1 (AP-1)) transcription factor complex. Deregulated expression of c-fos or v-fos in bone cells induces tumorigenicity and the formation of non-metastatic osteosarcomas. In contrast, fos oncogenes transform f
Mutations in the presenilin-1 (PS-1) gene are responsible for many cases of autosomal dominant earlyonset inherited Alzheimer's disease (AD). PS-1 is expressed in neurons where it is localized primarily to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER); the normal function of PS-1 and its pathogenic mechanism in AD
## Abstract The effect of Cadmium (Cd) on the expression of cβJun __N__βterminal kinase (JNK), __cβjun__, and activator proteinβ1 (APβ1) has been investigated. We previously reported that Cd causes cell damage as indicated by increases in the cytotoxic parameters, lactate dehydrogenase and lipid pe
