pubmed:abstractText |
C-fos promoter activity was examined in FRTL5 rat thyroid cells transiently transfected with a chimeric gene containing the c-fos promoter region linked upstream of the receptor gene chloroamphenicol acetyl transferase (CAT). Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) stimulation of transfected cells increased CAT activity 2- to 3-fold. TSH did not stimulate CAT activity driven by the Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) promoter. Both forskolin and 8-Br-cyclic AMP also stimulated CAT activity, and were not additive with TSH stimulation. The kinetics of c-fos-driven CAT activity in response to TSH and cyclic AMP inducers were similar, and stimulation was reversible. These data therefore provide the first evidence that TSH and cyclic AMP stimulate the activity of the c-fos promoter in FRTL5 cells.
