Title: Apc a liens ppar.delta. pour medicaments de chimio-prevention
Inventor: HE TONG-CHUAN
IPC: C07K14/705
Filed: 2000-08-16
Abstract: PPAR delta  a été identifié comme une cible de la suppression d'APC par l'analyse des profils globaux d'expression génique dans les cellules humaines de cancer colorectal. L'expression de PPAR delta  est élevée dans les cancers colorectaux primaires, et notoirement réprimés par l'APC dans les cellules de cancer colorectal. Cette répression utilise une médiation de deux éléments réagissant au Tcf-4 dans le promoteur du PPAR delta . Les rapporteurs contenant ces éléments réagissant au Tcf-4 sont supprimés par le sulindac, un anti-inflammatoire non stéroïdien (AINS) capable de réduire la taille et le nombre des tumeurs du colon chez l'homme et les autres animaux présentant des mutations <i>APC</i>. En outre, le sulindac est capable d'annihiler spécifiquement l'aptitude du PPAR delta  à se lier à ses séquences de reconnaissance de cognat. Ces découvertes suggèrent un modèle où les AINS bloquent la carcinogenèse grâce à une modification post-transcriptionnelle d'un gène normalement régulée par l'APC. Cette nouvelle cible moléculaire des AINS convient à la mise au point de nouveaux chimio-préventifs pour les tumeurs colorectales.
