Abstract

The present study was aimed at investigating the metabolic regulation of insulin-like growth factor-I(IGF-I) expression in fasting animals. The expression of IGF-I gene was determined by a solution hybridization/RNase protection assay using total RNA from control, 4d-fasting, and 2d-fasting-refed rats. The levels of IGF-I transcripts were reduced in 4d-fasting than in control by decreasing its transcriptional rate, which was measured through nuclear nun-on assay. DNase I footprinting, which was performed using nuclear extracts from fasting rat, demonstrated protein binding to a sequence that extended from +179 to +210 (termed region B). These data suggest that the expression of IGF-I is transcriptionally regulated through DNA-liver enriched protein binding in a sequence which is located downstream from major transcription initiation site of IGF-I gene.

Insulin-like growth factor-I(IGF-I)은 성장호르몬의 여러 가지 성정촉진 작용을 매개하는 분열 유발성 폴리펩티드이며, 조직의 수선과 재생, 창상치유 및 골대사와 같은 과정들에서 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 알려져 있고, 비교적 여러 조직에서 발현되고 있는 IGF-I 유전자의 전사조절에 대한 정확한 분자적 기전과 호르몬 및 대사 상태가 그것을 어떻게 조절하는지 아직 밝혀져 있지 않다. 쥐를 절삭시키므로써 대사 상태를 변조시켰을 때, 간 조직내 IGF-I mRNA의 발현에 미치는 절식의 영향을 살펴보기 위하여 solution hybridizatioon/RNase protection 방법으로 분석 하였다. IGF-I의 exon 1 및 exon 2에 의하여 encode된 tran-scripts 모두가 감소된 결과를 얻었고, 이러한 감소는 전사 수준에서 일어난 것으로 nuclear run-on 분석에 의하여 확인하였다. 또한 절식시킨 쥐에서 IGF-I mRNA의 양을 조절하는 cia-acting elements를 IGF-I 유전자의 5'-flanking 지역과 exon 1과 econ 2에서 밝히고자 절식시킨 쥐의 신선한 간조직에서 핵 추출물을 얻어 IGF-I의 여러 가지 DNA fragments와 반응시켜 DNase I protection 분석을 한 결과, IGF-I 유전자의 주요한 전사 개 시점으로부터 downstream에 있는 sequences가 절식으로 변조시킨 대사상태에서 IGF-I의 발현 조절에 중요하며 이곳에는 전사인자인 C/EBP family의 isoform들을 포함한 간조직에 풍부하게 존재하는 여러 전사인자들이 결합할 것으로 제안하였다.
