1 Neuron-restrictive silencer factor regulates the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor 2B subunit gene in basal and ethanol-induced gene expression in fetal cortical neurons. Ethanol RE1 silencing transcription factor Homo sapiens
2 Treatment of cultured cortical neurons with 100 mM ethanol for 5 days caused a significant decrease in the NRSF mRNA and protein levels, NRSF/NRSE binding activity, and an increase in the promoter activity. Ethanol RE1 silencing transcription factor Homo sapiens
3 Treatment of cultured cortical neurons with 100 mM ethanol for 5 days caused a significant decrease in the NRSF mRNA and protein levels, NRSF/NRSE binding activity, and an increase in the promoter activity. Ethanol RE1 silencing transcription factor Homo sapiens
4 Therefore, our studies suggest that NRSF is a negative regulator of NR2B expression and may contribute to the ethanol-induced up-regulation of the NR2B gene in fetal cortical neurons. Ethanol RE1 silencing transcription factor Homo sapiens
