Nuclear Myc Promoter-Binding Protein-1 (MBP-1) Expression Is a Prognostic Factor in Invasive Ductal Breast Carcinoma
2010
Identification of a prognostic gene signature associated with MBP-1 expression in ErbB2-negative breast carcinomas
2014
The ENO1 transcript, which encodes the glycolitic enzyme alpha-enolase, can be translated into a shorter nuclear protein called Myc-promoter Binding Protein-1 (MBP-1) by using an alternative translation start site. MBP-1 acts as a negative regulator of c-Myc, ErbB2 and Cox2 genes (1). Several evidences indicate that MBP-1 acts as a tumor suppressor in breast carcinoma and prostate cancer and its expression results in a reduced invasive ability (2). In our previous studies, we showed that MBP-1 is expressed and easily detectable in normal breast epithelial cells, but a loss of expression occurs in most primary invasive ductal carcinomas (IDC) of the breast. Furthermore, in these tumors MBP-1…
Relazione tra l’espressione del repressore trascrizionale MBP-1 e di miRNAs nel carcinoma mammario
2013
MBP-1 (Myc-promoter-binding-protein-1) è una proteina di 37 kDa, prodotta dalla traduzione alternativa del mRNA del gene ENO1, codificante per l’enzima glicolitico α-enolasi. MBP-1 svolge il ruolo di repressore trascrizionale agendo direttamente sul promotore di c-MYC, ERBB2 e COX2, tutti geni coinvolti in diverse fasi della progressione tumorale (1-3). Nei carcinomi duttali infiltranti della mammella (IDC), l’espressione di MBP-1 è inversamente correlata alla comparsa di metastasi linfonodali e di recidive (4). In diverse linee cellulari tumorali l’overespressione di MBP-1 risulta nella riduzione della proliferazione cellulare e dell’invasività e in un aumento nella morte cellulare per apo…

Nuclear myc promoter-binding protein-1 (MBP-1) expression is a prognostic factor in invasive ductal breast carcinoma
2010
Insulators are DNA elements that block the extension of a condensed chromatin domain into a transcriptionally active region or prevent the interaction of a distal enhancer with a promoter when placed between the two. Human c-Myc and Pvt-1 genes map close each other and are separated by an intergenic region rich of DNAseI hypersensitivity sites. Starting from the observation that PVT1 expression is restricted to a low number of normal tissues compared to the wide distribution of c-Myc mRNA we focus our studies on the function and structure of the regions surrounding the DHs present between the two genes. Stable and transient transfection, indicate that one of the regions (HB-2.8) has enhance…
