Functional Requirement of the Hypoxia-responsive Element in the Activation of the Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase Promoter by the Iron Chelator Desferrioxamine
Open accessAbstract
We have previously reported that a 19-base pair element of the 5'-flanking region of the inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) gene containing a sequence homology to a hypoxia-responsive enhancer (iNOS-HRE) mediates picolinic acid (PA)- or hypoxia-induced activation of the iNOS promoter in interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma)-treated murine macrophages. The iron chelator desferrioxamine (DFX) induces the activity of the human erythropoietin enhancer in Hep3B cells. We have investigated the influence of DFX on the activation of the iNOS promoter and iNOS gene expression in ANA-1 macrophages. We have found that DFX induced DNA-binding activity to the hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) consensus sequence of the iNOS promoter and activated the iNOS-HRE in murine macrophages. These activities of DFX were associated with a synergistic induction of iNOS mRNA expression and iNOS transcription in IFN-gamma-treated ANA-1 macrophages. Functional analysis of the 5'-flanking region of the iNOS gene demonstrated that IFN-gamma plus DFX activated the full-length iNOS promoter and that the iNOS-HRE was required for DFX-induced iNOS transcriptional activity. We also investigated the role of iron metabolism in the DFX- or PA-dependent induction of HIF-1 activity and iNOS expression. We demonstrate that addition of iron sulfate completely abolished DFX or PA induction of HIF-1 binding and iNOS-HRE activation and abrogated IFN-gamma plus either DFX- or PA-induced iNOS expression. These data establish that DFX is a co-stimulus for the transcriptional activation of the iNOS gene in IFN-gamma-treated macrophages, and they provide evidence that the iNOS-HRE is required for the DFX-dependent activation of the iNOS promoter. Furthermore, our results indicate that the iNOS-HRE is a regulatory element of the iNOS promoter responsive to iron chelation.

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.
