摘要
Cripto-1 and OCT4, expressed in stem cells and cancers, play important roles in tumorigenesis. Here, we demonstrate that Cripto-1 expression is regulated by OCT4 in human embryonic carcinoma NCCIT cells. The endogenous expression of Cripto-1 and OCT4 is significantly reduced during differentiation. Cripto-1 expression is increased by OCT4 overexpression, but decreased by shRNA-mediated OCT4 knockdown. OCT4 overexpression significantly activates Cripto-1 transcriptional activity. A 5'-upstream minimal promoter sequence in the gene-encoding Cripto-1 is significantly activated by OCT4 overexpression. Mutation of the putative OCT4-binding site abolishes OCT4-mediated activation of the Cripto-1 promoter. The OCT4 transactivation domains mediate transcriptional activity of the Cripto-1 minimal promoter through direct interaction. Taken together, OCT4 plays an important role as a transcriptional activator of Cripto-1 expression in NCCIT cells.
