... regulation β 2 -glycoprotein I hepatic nuclear factor-1α (HNF-1α) HepG2 cells Huh7 cells Abbreviations used: C/EBPβ, CCAAT/enhancer binding protein β; EMSA, electrophoretic mobility shift assay; β 2 -GPI, β 2 -glycoprotein I; HNF, hepatic nuclear factor; NF-1, nuclear factor-1; SV40, simian...

... cells with non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) liberated from HDL-phospholipids. For this purpose, HepG2 cells infected with adenovirus encoding human EDL (EDL-Ad), or with control β-galactosidase-expressing adenovirus (LacZ-Ad), were incubated with 14 C-HDL-PC. The analysis of the cellular lipids by TLC...

...Shigeru TAKAHASHI; Naomi MATSUURA; Takako KUROKAWA; Yuji TAKAHASHI; Takashi MIURA We reported previously that the 5′-flanking region (nucleotides −1976 to −1655) of the human haem oxygenase-1 ( hHO-1 ) gene enhances hHO-1 promoter activity in human hepatoma HepG2 cells, but not in HeLa cells...

... ovine adipocytes is associated with endogenous expression of PI transcripts throughout differentiation; PI transcripts are not detectable by RNase-protection assay in ovine preadipocytes, HepG2 cells or 3T3-F442A adipocytes. These data indicate the presence of repressor motifs in PI that are required...

... for comparison. In cultured rat hepatocytes glucagon and its second messenger cAMP increased luciferase expression 4–6-fold over basal levels. Insulin reduced this effect by 40–70%. Luciferase expression was also stimulated by the combination of dexamethasone and cAMP in HepG2 cells and this effect was inhibited...
