The insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) gene is regulated in a complex manner, involving developmentally regulated use of four different promoters as well as transcriptional repression of the maternal allele due to genomic imprinting. It has been well documented that liver is an exceptional organ in

The influence of recombinant human interleukin-6, the major mediator of the inflammatory response in liver, on the glucagon-and insulin-dependent induction of the phosphoenolpyruvate carboqkinase and glucokinase gene, respectively, was monitored on the level of gene transcription, mRNA abundance and
## Abstract In the current study, we identified a regulatory factor for the transcription of aquaporin 3 (AQP3) whose expression is repressed by insulin. We constructed a luciferase reporter vector containing bp β1382 to β12 of the 5β²βflanking region of the AQP3 gene for a reporter gene assay and o
