Abstract

Thioredoxin (TRX) is a dithiol-reducing enzyme that is induced by various oxidative stresses. TRX regulates the activity of DNA-binding proteins, including Jun/Fos and nuclear factor-kappaB. TRX also interacts with an intranuclear reducing molecule redox factor 1 (Ref-1), which enhances the activity of Jun/Fos. Here, we have investigated the role of TRX in the regulation of p53 activity. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay showed that TRX augmented the DNA binding activity of p53 and also further potentiated Ref-1-enhanced p53 activity. Luciferase assay revealed that transfection of TRX enhanced p53-dependent expression of p21 and further intensified Ref-1-mediated p53 activation. Furthermore, Western blot analysis revealed that p53-dependent induction of p21 protein was also facilitated by transfection with TRX. Overexpression of transdominant negative mutant TRX (mTRX) suppressed the effects of TRX or Ref-1, showing a functional interaction between TRX and Ref-1. cis-Diamminedichloroplatinum (II) (CDDP) induced p53 activation and p21 transactivation. The p53-dependent p21 transactivation induced by CDDP was inhibited by mTRX overexpression, suggesting that TRX-dependent redox regulation is physiologically involved in p53 regulation. CDDP also stimulated translocation of TRX from the cytosol into the nucleus. Hence, TRX-dependent redox regulation of p53 activity indicates coupling of the oxidative stress response and p53-dependent repair mechanism.

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.
