1 Feasibility of a novel positive feedback effect of 131I-promoted Bac-Egr1-hNIS expression in malignant glioma via baculovirus. Iodine-131 solute carrier family 5 member 5 Homo sapiens
2 PURPOSE: As intracellular iodine is released rapidly, increased expression of sodium/iodide symporter (NIS) is required for effective radioiodine treatment of tumor. Iodine-131 solute carrier family 5 member 5 Homo sapiens
3 As Egr1 promoter is activated by 131I and may promote human NIS (hNIS) expression, hNIS also induces 131I uptake and activates Egr1, so the existence of a positive feedback effect of 131I-promoted Egr1-hNIS expression is possible. Iodine-131 solute carrier family 5 member 5 Homo sapiens
4 As Egr1 promoter is activated by 131I and may promote human NIS (hNIS) expression, hNIS also induces 131I uptake and activates Egr1, so the existence of a positive feedback effect of 131I-promoted Egr1-hNIS expression is possible. Iodine-131 solute carrier family 5 member 5 Homo sapiens
5 As Egr1 promoter is activated by 131I and may promote human NIS (hNIS) expression, hNIS also induces 131I uptake and activates Egr1, so the existence of a positive feedback effect of 131I-promoted Egr1-hNIS expression is possible. Iodine-131 solute carrier family 5 member 5 Homo sapiens
6 As Egr1 promoter is activated by 131I and may promote human NIS (hNIS) expression, hNIS also induces 131I uptake and activates Egr1, so the existence of a positive feedback effect of 131I-promoted Egr1-hNIS expression is possible. Iodine-131 solute carrier family 5 member 5 Homo sapiens
7 To test 131I-promoted hNIS expression, human malignant glioma U87 cells were transfected with Bac-Egr1-hNIS, stimulated with or without 131I; the expression of hNIS protein was detected by immunofluorescence and flow cytometry test. Iodine-131 solute carrier family 5 member 5 Homo sapiens
8 In addition, the uptake and efflux of 131I were determined after the incubation of Bac-Egr1-hNIS-transfected U87 cells with or without 131I. Iodine-131 solute carrier family 5 member 5 Homo sapiens
9 CONCLUSION: Our results indicated that an improved transgene expression of 131I-stimulated hNIS in U87 cells using a baculovirus vector containing the Egr1 promoter is possible, and the increased expression of hNIS is responsible for a higher 131I uptake. Iodine-131 solute carrier family 5 member 5 Homo sapiens
10 CONCLUSION: Our results indicated that an improved transgene expression of 131I-stimulated hNIS in U87 cells using a baculovirus vector containing the Egr1 promoter is possible, and the increased expression of hNIS is responsible for a higher 131I uptake. Iodine-131 solute carrier family 5 member 5 Homo sapiens
11 CONCLUSION: Our results indicated that an improved transgene expression of 131I-stimulated hNIS in U87 cells using a baculovirus vector containing the Egr1 promoter is possible, and the increased expression of hNIS is responsible for a higher 131I uptake. Iodine-131 solute carrier family 5 member 5 Homo sapiens
12 CONCLUSION: Our results indicated that an improved transgene expression of 131I-stimulated hNIS in U87 cells using a baculovirus vector containing the Egr1 promoter is possible, and the increased expression of hNIS is responsible for a higher 131I uptake.
