Abstract
Protein C (PC) is a vitamin K-dependent factor that plays a crucial role in controlling anticoagulant processes and acts as a cytoprotective agent to promote cell survival. Several mutations in human PC are associated with decreased protein production or altered protein structure, resulting in PC deficiency. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms in human PC to prioritize and confirm the most high-risk mutations predicted to cause disease. Of the 340 missense mutations obtained from the NCBI database, only 26 were classified as high-risk mutations using various bioinformatic tools. Among these, we identified that 12 mutations reduced the stability of protein, and thereby had the greatest potential to disturb protein structure and function. Molecular dynamics simulations revealed moderate alterations in the structural stability, flexibility, and secondary structural organization of the serine protease domain of human PC for five missense mutations (L305R, W342C, G403R, V420E, and W444C) when compared to the native structure that could maybe influence its interaction with other molecules. Protein-protein interaction analyses demonstrated that the occurrence of these five mutations can affect the regular interaction between PC and activated factor V. Therefore, our findings assume that these mutants can be used in the identification and development of therapeutics for diseases associated with PC dysfunction, although assessment the effect of these mutations need to be proofed in in-vitro.

Abstract
Statins are potent lipid-lowering drugs. Large prospective clinical trials have shown the anti-thrombotic effect of statins, e.g., preventing deep vein thrombosis. However, the mechanism underlying the beneficial effect of statins in reducing thrombus formation remains to be established. We, thus, conduct this study to investigate the potential molecular mechanisms. The cultured human hepatoma cells (HepG2) were used as the in vitro model. The human protein C gene promoter was cloned into the luciferase reporter to study the transcriptional regulation of human protein C gene. Wistar rats fed with simvastatin (5 mg/kg day) were used as the in vivo model. We found that simvastatin increased the expression of protein C in hepatocytes (361 ± 64% and 313 ± 59% after 2 h and 6 h of stimulation, respectively, both p < 0.01). In the animal study, the serum protein C levels were increased in the simvastatin-treated group (7 ± 2.2 unit/ml vs 23.4 ± 19.3 unit/ml and 23.4 ± 18.2 unit/ml and 1 and 2 weeks of treatment, respectively, both p < 0.05). Regarding the possible molecular mechanism, we found that the level of hepatocyte nuclear factor 1α (HNF1α) was also increased in both the in vivo and in vitro models. We found that the protein C promoter activity was increased by simvastatin, and this effect was inhibited by HNF1α knockdown and constitutively active Rac1. Therefore, stains may modulate protein C expression through small GTPase Rac 1 and HNF1α.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Protein C deficiency is a genetic disorder caused by mutations in the protein C gene (PROC). More than 10% of nonsense and frameshift mutations carrying premature termination codons have been identified in PROC, but the exact molecular mechanisms of these mutations on the pathogenesis of protein C deficiency remain unclear. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study is to investigate whether nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) can be a mechanism accounting for protein C deficiency. METHODS PROC of genomic DNA was amplified and sequenced. Recombinant plasmids expressing wild-type (wt) and mutant EGFP-protein C (EGFP-PC) cDNA were constructed and transiently transfected into human embryonic kidney cells using lipofectamine. Expression of mRNAs and proteins of EGFP-PC and NMD factor UPF1 were analyzed by qPCR and Western blot. RESULTS DNA sequencing revealed a novel heterozygous nonsense mutation (p.Trp247*) in patient 1 and two compound heterozygous mutations (p.Phe181Val and p.Arg199*) in patient 2. Expression studies showed that cells transfected with the mutant plasmids expressed significantly lower levels of EGFP-PC mRNAs and proteins compared to cells transfected with the wt plasmid. A translation inhibitor cycloheximide and UPF1 small interfering RNA (UPF1 siRNA) significantly increased mRNA or protein expression of EGFP-PC in cells transfected with the mutant plasmids. CONCLUSION Two PROC nonsense mutations (p.Trp247* and p.Arg199*) trigger NMD, resulting in protein C deficiency.

Abstract
Continuously increasing understanding of the molecular triggers responsible for the onset of diseases, paralleled by an equally dynamic evolution of chemical synthesis and screening methods, offers an abundance of pharmacological agents with a potential to become new successful drugs. However, before patients can benefit of newly developed pharmaceuticals, stringent safety filters need to be applied to weed out unfavourable drug candidates. Cost effectiveness and the need to identify compound liabilities, without exposing humans to unnecessary risks, has stimulated the shift of the safety studies to the earliest stages of drug discovery and development. In this regard, in vivo relevant organotypic in vitro models have high potential to revolutionize the preclinical safety testing. They can enable automation of the process, to match the requirements of high-throughput screening approaches, while satisfying ethical considerations. Cultures of primary hepatocytes became already an inherent part of the preclinical pharmaco-toxicological testing battery, yet their routine use, particularly for long-term assays, is limited by the progressive deterioration of liver-specific features. The availability of suitable hepatic and other organ-specific in vitro models is, however, of paramount importance in the light of changing European legal regulations in the field of chemical compounds of different origin, which gradually restrict the use of animal studies for safety assessment, as currently witnessed in cosmetic industry. Fortunately, research groups worldwide spare no effort to establish hepatic in vitro systems. In the present review, both classical and innovative methodologies to stabilize the in vivo-like hepatocyte phenotype in culture of primary hepatocytes are presented and discussed.

Abstract
Approximately, 4-11 % of the patients with idiopathic venous thrombosis (VT) show protein C (PC) deficiency. The molecular pathology of PC deficiency was analyzed in 102 patients; 98 healthy controls were also studied to assess the association of various polymorphisms with reduced PC levels. PROC gene mutations were detected only in 8 (7.8 %) patients with reduced PC levels. PROC promoter region CG polymorphisms showed statistically significant association with reduced PC levels (p < 0.001). PC deficiency in Indian VT patients can, thus, largely be explained by PROC gene promoter CG polymorphisms; only a small fraction of the patients show specific mutations in PROC gene.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Genetic variation in the Protein C gene (PROC) is associated with altered risk of adverse outcome for a number of diseases. Common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the promoter region and the adjacent 5' region of PROC are associated with Protein C expression. We tested the hypothesis that common SNPs (minor allele frequency >10%) between the frequently studied promoter SNPs -1654 (rs1799808) and -1641 (rs1799809), and the end of PROC intron 2 alter nuclear transcription factor binding. MATERIALS AND METHODS We used electrophoretic mobility shift assays with 25-mer oligonucleotides centered on each of the 10 SNPs assessed in this potential regulatory region of the Protein C gene to test for differential binding to nuclear factors isolated from Hep-G2 cells. RESULTS We found that the G-allele oligo of the intron 2 SNP rs2069915[G/A] bound nuclear factors more avidly than the A-allele (p=1.9 × 10(-9), n=24). Similarly, we found that the C-allele oligo of the intron 2 SNP rs2069916[C/T] bound nuclear factors more avidly than the T-allele, (p=3.7 × 10(-6), n=19). Cold competition and supershift assays suggested that the protein differentially binding to the C-allele of rs2069916 was USF1. Notably, we observed minimal nuclear factor binding to oligos containing haplotypes of the previously reported -1654 and -1641 SNPs. Luciferase reporter assays that showed the A-T haplotype of rs2069915 and rs2069916 drives transcription significantly more than the C-G haplotype (t-test, P=0.015, n=12). CONCLUSION Differential transcription factor binding occurs for common SNPs in the 5' intronic regions of PROC which may contribute to PROC regulation and reported PROC SNP - phenotype associations.

Abstract
We have developed a system rSNP_Guide, , predicting the transcription factor (TF) binding sites on DNA, which mutation-caused alterations may explain disease penetration. rSNP_Guide uses the detected alterations in the mutant DNA binding to unknown TF caused by diseases and, upon the DNA sequences, calculates the alterations in known TF sites so that to select only the known ones with calculated alterations in the best consistence with those detected. Our system has been control tested on the SNP's with known site-disease relationships. For practical aims, two TF sites associated with diseases were predicted and confirmed by the immune assay with anti-TF antibodies. In the case of tumor susceptibility, the GATA site in the second intron of mouse K-ras gene was truly predicted, whereas mutation damage of this site causes tumor resistance. In the case of alcohol dependencies and others behavioral diseases, the mutation-caused spurious YY1 site in the sixth intron of human tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO2) gene was successfully predicted. Finally, sixteen non-documented TF sites localizable at both orthologous and paralogous genes were first characterized by three rates "present", "weakened" or "absent", with significance estimated by rSNP_Guide relatively to six TF sites with known mutation-caused alterations in DNA/TF-binding.

Abstract
Hepatocyte nuclear factor 6 (HNF6) is one of liver-enriched transcription factors. HNF6 utilizes the bipartite onecut-homeodomain sequence to localize the HNF6 protein to the nuclear compartment and binds to specific DNA sequences of numerous target gene promoters. HNF6 regulates an intricate network and mediates complex biological processes that are best known in the liver and pancreas. The function of HNF6 is correlated to cell proliferation, cell cycle regulation, cell differentiation and organogenesis, cell migration and cell-matrix adhesion, glucose metabolism, bile homeostasis, inflammation and so on. HNF6 controls the transcription of its target genes in different ways. The details of the regulatory pathways and their mechanisms are still under investigation. Future study will explore HNF6 novel functions associated with apoptosis, oncogenesis, and modulation of the inflammatory response. This review highlights recent progression pertaining to the pathophysiologic role of HNF6 and summarizes the potential mechanisms in preclinical animal models. HNF6-mediated pathways represent attractive therapeutic targets for the treatment of the relative diseases such as cholestasis.

Abstract
SHP (small heterodimer partner; NR0B2) is an atypical orphan NR (nuclear receptor) that functions as a transcriptional co-repressor by interacting with a diverse set of NRs and transcriptional factors. HNF-6 (hepatocyte nuclear factor-6) is a key regulatory factor in pancreatic development, endocrine differentiation and the formation of the biliary tract, as well as glucose metabolism. In this study, we have investigated the function of SHP as a putative repressor of HNF-6. Using transient transfection assays, we have shown that SHP represses the transcriptional activity of HNF-6. Confocal microscopy revealed that both SHP and HNF-6 co-localize in the nuclei of cells. SHP physically interacted with HNF-6 in protein-protein association assays in vitro. EMSAs (electrophoretic mobility-shift assays) and ChIP (chromatin immunoprecipitation) assays demonstrated that SHP inhibits the DNA-binding activity of HNF-6 to an HNF-6-response element consensus sequence, and the HNF-6 target region of the endogenous G6Pase (glucose 6-phosphatase) promoter respectively. Northern blot analysis of HNF-6 target genes in cells infected with adenoviral vectors for SHP and SHP siRNAs (small inhibitory RNAs) indicated that SHP represses the expression of endogenous G6Pase and PEPCK (phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase). Our results suggest that HNF-6 is a novel target of SHP in the regulation of gluconeogenesis.

Abstract
Protein C (PC) is a key regulator of blood clotting and inflammation. Its inherited deficiency is associated with venous thromboembolism, and recombinant activated PC is currently used to increase survival in severe sepsis. The molecular basis of inherited PC deficiency is heterogeneous. Due to its multiple physiologic interactions and functions, and its modular structure, natural variants aid in the understanding of the relationship between critical residues and discrete functions. This knowledge has important therapeutic implications in the planning of a recombinant activated PC with a specific therapeutic target and devoid of major collateral effects. A way of predicting important functional consequences of residue variation is the use of molecular modeling and structural interpretation of amino acidic substitutions. A study of 21 out of 32 identified PC gene (PROC) variants is presented. For three of them, localized in the active site, electrostatic potential variation was calculated. For more than half of the studied variants, an explanation for the functional impairment could be derived from computational analysis, allowing a focused choice of which variants it is worthwhile pursuing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS The hepatocyte nuclear factor 6 (HNF6 or ONECUT-1) protein is a cell-type specific transcription factor that regulates expression of hepatocyte-specific genes. Using hepatocytes for chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays, the HNF6 protein was shown to associate with cell cycle regulatory promoters. Here, we examined whether increased levels of HNF6 stimulate hepatocyte proliferation during mouse liver regeneration. METHODS Tail vein injection of adenovirus expressing the HNF6 complementary DNA was used to increase hepatic HNF6 levels during mouse liver regeneration induced by partial hepatectomy, and DNA replication was determined by bromodeoxyuridine incorporation. Cotransfection and ChIP assays were used to determine transcriptional target promoters. RESULTS Elevated expression of HNF6 during mouse liver regeneration causes a significant increase in the number of hepatocytes entering DNA replication (S phase), and mouse hepatoma Hepa1-6 cells diminished for HNF6 levels by small interfering RNA transfection exhibit a 50% reduction in S phase following serum stimulation. This stimulation in hepatocyte S-phase progression was associated with increased expression of the hepatocyte mitogen tumor growth factor alpha and the cell cycle regulators cyclin D1 and Forkhead box m1 (Foxm1) transcription factor. Cotransfection and ChIP assays show that tumor growth factor alpha, cyclin D1, and HNF6 promoter regions are direct transcriptional targets of the HNF6 protein. Coimmunoprecipitation assays with regenerating mouse liver extracts reveal an association between HNF6 and FoxM1 proteins, and cotransfection assays show that HNF6 stimulates Foxm1 transcriptional activity. CONCLUSIONS These mouse liver regeneration studies show that increased HNF6 levels stimulate hepatocyte proliferation through transcriptional induction of cell cycle regulatory genes.

Abstract
Low levels of protein C (PC) predict outcome as early as 10 h after insult in a rat polymicrobial sepsis model and were associated with suppression of PC mRNA, upstream transcription factor FoxA2, and cofactor hepatocyte nuclear factor 6 (HNF6). Small interfering RNA suppression of FoxA2 in isolated hepatocytes demonstrated regulation of both its cofactor HNF6 and PC. Our data suggest that reduced FoxA2 may be important in the suppression of PC and resulting poor outcome in sepsis.

Abstract
There is substantial evidence to indicate that the pathologic processes of venous and arterial thromboembolism involve both genetic and environmental influences. Scientific progress over the past decade has revealed a growing number of genetic factors, such as factor V Leiden and the prothrombin gene variant, that are present in more than 1% of the population and increase the relative risk of venous thrombosis between two- and sevenfold. Furthermore, several of these factors have been demonstrated to interact adversely with environmental influences, such as oral contraceptives and smoking. Although these traits are present at relatively high prevalence in the population, the magnitude of the increased thrombotic risk associated with these factors is substantially less than that related to inherited deficiency of the natural anticoagulant protein antithrombin, and somewhat less than the elevated risk with protein C and protein S deficiencies. In contrast to the progress that has been made in understanding the genetic contributions to venous thromboembolism, much still remains to be learned about the genetic basis of arterial thrombosis. Despite the documentation of associations between several genetic polymorphisms with plasma procoagulant levels, consistent associations with arterial thrombotic disease have not been found.

Abstract
To investigate the regulational interaction of hepatocyte nuclear factor-1alpha (HNF-1alpha) and insulin promoter factor 1 (IPF1) on insulin gene expression, either or both of the expression vectors carrying each transcription factor were transiently transfected into HeLa cells, RINm5F cells and MIN6 cells together with the luciferase reporter construct driven by a human preproinsulin gene promoter (-1998 to +237) designated as, pINS-1998/luc. IPF1-transfection into HeLa cells strongly stimulated the luciferase activity to 725 fold that of the basal level. In contrast, HNF-1alpha-transfection resulted in only a 6.7 fold increase. In co-transfection experiments, increasing the amount of HNF-1alpha resulted in an 84.5% and 74.4% decrease in IPF1-stimulated luciferase activity in HeLa and RINm5F cells, respectively. Deletion constructs designated as pINS-248/luc, pINS-213/luc and pINS-185/luc were transfected into RINm5F cells to determine the role of the A3 element and its 5' flanking sequence in the inhibitory effect of HNF-1alpha. The results showed that the inhibiting effects of HNF-1alpha with pINS-213/luc and pINS-185/luc were significantly smaller than those with both pINS-1998/luc and pINS-248/luc. Transfection into MN6 cells with pINS-1998/luc in the absence of IPF1 resulted in constitutional transactivation of the insulin gene, and this transactivation was abolished by the co-transfection with HNF-1alpha. The present data indicate that IPF1 rather than HNF-1alpha predominantly transactivates the insulin gene, and that HNF-1alpha inhibits IPF1-dependent insulin gene transactivation mediated through the 5' flanking sequence of the A3 element. It is suggested that HNF-1alpha may be involved in insulin gene expression as a negative regulator.

Abstract
We report here the characterization of the Drosophila homolog of the onecut homeobox gene, which encodes a protein product with one cut domain and one homeodomain. We present evidence that D-Onecut can bind to similar DNA sequences with high specificity and affinity as other Onecut proteins through the highly conserved cut domain and homeodomain. Interestingly, the cut domain alone can mediate DNA-binding, but the homeodomain cannot. However, depending upon the promoter context, we observed cooperative interactions between the two domains to confer high DNA-binding affinity and specificity. D-Onecut appears to be a moderate transcriptional activator and functions as a nuclear protein in neuronal tissues of both the CNS and PNS during development and in the adult. In the eye, D-Onecut expression is independent of glass, a transcriptional regulator of R cell differentiation. Taken together, our results suggest a role for D-Onecut in the regulation of some aspects of neural differentiation or maintenance. In support of this notion, overexpression of a putative dominant negative form of D-Onecut during eye development does not affect early cell fate specification, but severely affects photoreceptor differentiation.

Abstract
Transcription factors of the ONECUT class, whose prototype is HNF-6, contain a single cut domain and a divergent homeodomain characterized by a phenylalanine at position 48 and a methionine at position 50. The cut domain is required for DNA binding. The homeodomain is required either for DNA binding or for transcriptional stimulation, depending on the target gene. Transcriptional stimulation by the homeodomain involves the F48M50 dyad. We investigate here how HNF-6 stimulates transcription. We identify transcriptionally active domains of HNF-6 that are conserved among members of the ONECUT class and show that the cut domain of HNF-6 participates to DNA binding and, via a LXXLL motif, to transcriptional stimulation. We also demonstrate that, on a target gene to which HNF-6 binds without requirement for the homeodomain, transcriptional stimulation involves an interaction of HNF-6 with the coactivator CREB-binding protein (CBP). This interaction depends both on the LXXLL motif of the cut domain and on the F48M50 dyad of the homeodomain. On a target gene for which the homeodomain is required for DNA binding, but not for transcriptional stimulation, HNF-6 interacts with the coactivator p300/CBP-associated factor but not with CBP. These data show that a transcription factor can act via different, sequence-specific, mechanisms that combine distinct modes of DNA binding with the use of different coactivators.

Abstract
Growth hormone (GH) controls gene expression in liver. Recent work suggests that this can result in part from the stimulation by GH of the synthesis of liver-specific transcription factors, one of which is HNF-6. The liver-specific factors HNF-4 and C/EBP alpha respectively stimulate and inhibit transcription of the hnf 6 gene. Upon GH stimulation, the affinity of HNF-4 for the hnf 6 promoter is increased and the binding of C/EBP alpha is decreased. GH therefore controls hnf 6 by a combination of stimulatory and derepressive mechanisms. On the other hand, HNF-6 stimulates transcription of the hnf 3beta and hnf 4 genes, the stimulation of hnf 4 resulting most likely from the GH-induced increase in HNF-6 concentration. We conclude that in liver GH is likely to control the synthesis of a whole set of proteins whose genes are regulated by a GH-sensitive network of transcription factors, which regulate each other by feed-back and autoregulatory loops.

Abstract
HNF-6 is a tissue-restricted transcription factor that participates in the regulation of several genes in liver. We reported earlier that in adult rats, HNF-6 mRNA concentration in liver drops to almost undetectable levels after hypophysectomy and returns to normal after 1 week of GH treatment. We now show that this results from a rapid effect of GH, and we characterize its molecular mechanism. In hypophysectomized rats, HNF-6 mRNAs increased within 1 h after a single injection of GH. The same GH-dependent induction was reproduced on isolated hepatocytes. To determine whether GH regulates hnf6 expression at the gene level, we studied its promoter. DNA binding experiments showed that 1) the transcription factors STAT5 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 5) and HNF-4 (hepatocyte nuclear factor 4) bind to sites located around -110 and -650, respectively; and 2) STAT5 binding is induced and HNF-4 binding affinity is increased in liver within 1 h after GH injection to hypophysectomized rats. Using transfection experiments and site-directed mutagenesis, we found that STAT5 and HNF-4 stimulated transcription of an hnf6 gene promoter-reporter construct. Furthermore, GH stimulated transcription of this construct in cells that express GH receptors. Consistent with our earlier finding that HNF-6 stimulates the hnf4 and hnf3beta gene promoters, GH treatment of hypophysectomized rats increased the liver concentration of HNF-4 and HNF-3beta mRNAs. Together, these data demonstrate that GH stimulates transcription of the hnf6 gene by a mechanism involving STAT5 and HNF-4. They show that HNF-6 participates not only as an effector, but also as a target, to the regulatory network of liver transcription factors, and that several members of this network are GH regulated.

Abstract
Glucocorticoids exert their effects on gene transcription through ubiquitous receptors that bind to regulatory sequences present in many genes. These glucocorticoid receptors are present in all cell types, yet glucocorticoid action is controlled in a tissue-specific way. One mechanism for this control relies on tissue-specific transcriptional activators that bind in the vicinity of the glucocorticoid receptor and are required for receptor action. We now describe a gene-specific and tissue-specific inhibitory mechanism through which glucocorticoid action is repressed by a tissue-restricted transcription factor, hepatocyte nuclear factor-6 (HNF-6). HNF-6 inhibits the glucocorticoid-induced stimulation of two genes coding for enzymes of liver glucose metabolism, namely 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase. Binding of HNF-6 to DNA is required for inhibition of glucocorticoid receptor activity. In vitro and in vivo experiments suggest that this inhibition is mediated by a direct HNF-6/glucocorticoid receptor interaction involving the amino-terminal domain of HNF-6 and the DNA-binding domain of the receptor. Thus, in addition to its known property of stimulating transcription of liver-expressed genes, HNF-6 can antagonize glucocorticoid-stimulated gene transcription.

Abstract
The present study was designed to analyze the thrombomodulin proximal promoter region spanning nucleotides -293 to -12 to search for polymorphisms that could modify thrombomodulin gene expression in patients with venous thromboembolic disease. The study population comprised 205 patients and 394 healthy subjects of similar age and sex distribution. No polymorphisms and only 1 point mutation (G-33A) were found. The G-33A mutation was present at the heterozygous state in 2 patients and in 1 control. Being more frequent in the patients (0.97%) than in the controls (0.25%), the G-33A mutation might be a risk factor for venous thrombosis. To investigate the effect of this mutation on the thrombomodulin promoter activity, the proximal promoter region of the gene (bearing or not bearing the G-33A mutation) was inserted into a promotorless expression vector, upstream of the firefly luciferase gene, and transiently transfected into EA.hy926 endothelial cells. Under the conditions of the assay, the G-33A mutation mildly decreased the promoter activity. This study confirms that abnormalities of the thrombomodulin proximal promoter are not frequent in patients with venous thromboembolism.

Abstract
Hepatocyte nuclear factor 6 (HNF-6) is the prototype of a family of tissue-specific transcription factors characterized by a bipartite DNA-binding domain consisting of a single cut domain and a novel type of homeodomain. We have previously cloned rat cDNA species coding for two isoforms, HNF-6alpha (465 residues) and beta (491 residues), which differ only by the length of the spacer between the two DNA-binding domains. We have now localized the rat Hnf6 gene to chromosome 8q24-q31 by Southern blotting of DNA from somatic cell hybrids and by fluorescence in situ hybridization. Cloning and sequencing of the rat gene showed that the two HNF-6 isoforms are generated by alternative splicing of three exons that are more than 10 kb apart from each other. Exon 1 codes for the N-terminal part and the cut domain, exon 2 codes for the 26 HNF-6beta-specific amino acids, and exon 3 codes for the homeodomain and the C-terminal amino acids. The transcription initiation site was mapped by ribonuclease protection and 5' rapid amplification of cDNA ends. Transfection experiments showed that promoter activity was contained within 0.75 kb upstream of the transcription initiation site. This activity was detected by the transfection of liver-derived HepG2 cells, but not of Rat-1 fibroblasts, suggesting that the promoter is sufficient to confer liver-specific expression.
