1 | INTRODUCTION: The growth factor HBEGF is upregulated post-transcriptionally in the low O2 environment of the human placenta during the first 10 weeks of pregnancy. | Oxygen | heparin binding EGF like growth factor | Homo sapiens |
2 | We have examined the possible roles of HBEGF turnover and micro-RNA (miRNA) in its regulation by O2 in human first trimester trophoblast. | Oxygen | heparin binding EGF like growth factor | Homo sapiens |
3 | RESULTS: Protein turnover studies, using 10 mug/ml cyclohexamide, 1 mug/ml lactocystin, or 100 mug/ml MG132, demonstrated faster HBEGF degradation at 20% O2 than 2% O2, mediated by the proteasome. | Oxygen | heparin binding EGF like growth factor | Homo sapiens |
4 | RESULTS: Protein turnover studies, using 10 mug/ml cyclohexamide, 1 mug/ml lactocystin, or 100 mug/ml MG132, demonstrated faster HBEGF degradation at 20% O2 than 2% O2, mediated by the proteasome. | Oxygen | heparin binding EGF like growth factor | Homo sapiens |
5 | Nevertheless, HBEGF upregulation at 2% O2 was blocked when the miRNA-processing protein DGCR8 was silenced, suggesting a role for miRNA. | Oxygen | heparin binding EGF like growth factor | Homo sapiens |
