Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The current study suggests that the Mafb 3' untranslated region (UTR) is an essential region for its regulation by androgen. We identified 2 functional androgen response elements (AREs) in Mafb 3UTR. Androgen receptor is bound to such AREs in 3UTR during urethral masculinization. By using such identified UTR-enhancer, we revealed new candidate upstream gene for MafB regulation. Our ongoing study suggests such new transcription factor-AR interaction is essential for regulating MafB enhancer. CAF cells have been also suggested as playing essential role for prostate cancer. The current study gives insight for the regulation of bZip family gene function not only in embryonic mesenchyme cells but also for cancer associated fibroblast (CAF) cells.
