| Research Abstract |
In this study, we found that intelectin-1 was expressed in malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) or intestinal metaplasia in stomach, but not in normal pleura and normal stomach. However, expression of other lesion markers was not similar. Therefore, intelectin-1 expression in MPM and intestinal metaplasia may be regulated by different gene regulatory mechanisms each other. The promoter and enhancer of intelectin-1 in MPM located on a region from -56 to +6 nucleotides including a TATA box element and from +263 to +293 nucleotides, respectively, for the transcription start site. Database analysis of the enhancer region suggested that Oct and Sox transcriptional factors might function as transcriptional factors of intelectin-1 in MPM.
