1 cAMP differentially regulates gamma-globin gene expression in erythroleukemic cells and primary erythroblasts through c-Myb expression. Cyclic AMP hemoglobin subunit gamma 1 Homo sapiens
2 Our previous studies demonstrated roles of cyclic nucleotides in gamma-globin gene expression. Nucleotides, Cyclic hemoglobin subunit gamma 1 Homo sapiens
3 We recently found that, upon activation of the cAMP pathway, expression of the gamma-globin gene is inhibited in K562 cells but induced in adult erythroblasts. Cyclic AMP hemoglobin subunit gamma 1 Homo sapiens
4 Here we show that c-Myb, a proto-oncogene product that plays a role in cell growth and differentiation, is involved in the cAMP-mediated differential regulation of gamma-globin gene expression in K562 cells and primary erythroblasts. Cyclic AMP hemoglobin subunit gamma 1 Homo sapiens
5 Together, these results show that the cAMP pathway blocks gamma-globin gene expression in K562 cells by increasing c-Myb expression and c-Myb plays a role in defining the mode of response of the gamma-globin gene to fetal hemoglobin inducers in erythroid cells. Cyclic AMP hemoglobin subunit gamma 1 Homo sapiens
