Standard name HINATA_NFKB_TARGETS_KERATINOCYTE_UP
Systematic name M11951
Brief description Genes up-regulated in primary keratinocytes by expression of p50 (NFKB1) and p65 (RELA) [GeneID=4790;5970] components of NFKB.
Full description or abstract NF-kappa B regulates normal and pathological processes, including neoplasia, in a tissue-context-dependent manner. In skin, NF-kappa B is implicated in epidermal homeostasis as well as in the pathogenesis of squamous cell carcinoma; however, its function in the underlying mesenchymal dermis has been unclear. To gain insight into NF-kappa B roles in these two adjacent cutaneous tissue compartments, NF-kappa B effects on expression of 12 435 genes were determined in epidermal keratinocytes and dermal fibroblasts. Although NF-kappa B induced proinflammatory and antiapoptotic genes in both settings, it exhibited divergent effects on growth regulatory genes. In keratinocytes, but not in fibroblasts, NF-kappa B induced p21(CIP1), which was sufficient to inhibit growth of both cell types. Levels of growth inhibitory factor (GIF), in contrast, were increased by NF-kappa B in both settings but inhibited growth only in keratinocytes. These findings indicate that transcription factors such as NF-kappa B can program tissue-selective effects via both differential target gene induction as well as by inducing common targets that exert differing effects depending on cellular lineage.
