TGF-beta 1 and cAMP attenuate cyclin A gene transcription via a cAMP responsive element through independent pathways

I Barlat et al. Oncogene. .

Abstract

Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) is a potent inhibitor of the proliferation of many cell lines. The expression of Cyclin A is down-regulated by TGF-beta 1 in Chinese hamster lung fibroblasts and most of this effect is mediated at the transcriptional level through a cAMP-responsive element (CRE), but does not require a functional cAMP-dependent protein kinase. However, activation of the cAMP pathway in these cells gives rise to a strong inhibition of proliferation, paralleled by a down-regulation of Cyclin A promoter activity. This effect requires the integrity of the CRE, suggesting a role for CRE-binding proteins in late G1/S controls.
