Abstract

c-Myc plays a vital role in cell-cycle progression. Deregulated expression of c-Myc can overcome cell-cycle arrest in order to promote cellular proliferation. Transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) treatment of immortalized human keratinocyte cells inhibits cell-cycle progression and is characterized by down-regulation of c-Myc followed by up-regulation of p21 CIP1 . A direct role of c-Myc in this pathway was demonstrated by the observation that ectopic expression of c-Myc overcame the cell-cycle block induced by TGFβ treatment. The induction of p21 CIP1 transcription by TGFβ was blocked in human keratinocyte cells stably expressing c-Myc. Furthermore, overexpression of c-Myc in NIH 3T3 cells repressed the basal levels of p21 CIP1 mRNA. Repression of p21 CIP1 transcription by c-Myc occurred at the promoter level in a region near the start site of transcriptional initiation and was independent of histone deacetylase activity. These data suggest that the down-regulation of c-Myc after TGFβ signaling is important for subsequent regulation of p21 CIP1 and cell-cycle inhibition. Thus, repression of the cell-cycle inhibitory gene p21 CIP1 plays a role in c-Myc-dependent cell-cycle progression.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
