Nat Rev Cancer 3:859-68. 2003
Liver tumor development. c-Jun antagonizes the proapoptotic activity of p53Robert Eferl
Research Institute of Molecular Pathology IMP, Dr Bohrgasse 7, A 1030, Vienna, Austria
Cell 112:181-92. 2003..These data indicate that c-Jun prevents apoptosis by antagonizing p53 activity, illustrating a mechanism that might contribute to the early stages of human HCC development...
Activator protein 1 (Fos/Jun) functions in inflammatory bone and skin diseaseRainer Zenz
Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Cancer Research, Währinger Strasse 13a, A 1090 Vienna, Austria
Arthritis Res Ther 10:201. 2008..These new data provide a better molecular understanding of disease pathways and should pave the road for the discovery of new targets for therapeutic applications...
Role of heterodimerization of c-Fos and Fra1 proteins in osteoclast differentiationLatifa Bakiri
Research Institute of Molecular Pathology IMP, A 1030 Vienna, Austria
Bone 40:867-75. 2007..We propose that Fra1 together with a dimerization partner different from Jun proteins can rescue osteoclast differentiation in c-Fos-deficient precursors...
Fos/AP-1 proteins in bone and the immune systemErwin F Wagner
Research Institute of Molecular Pathology IMP, Vienna, Austria
Immunol Rev 208:126-40. 2005..We also attempt to put potential therapeutic strategies for inflammatory bone diseases in perspective...
Development of pulmonary fibrosis through a pathway involving the transcription factor Fra-2/AP-1Robert Eferl
Research Institute of Molecular Pathology, Doktor Bohr Gasse 7, A 1030 Vienna, Austria
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 105:10525-30. 2008....
The Fos-related antigen Fra-1 is an activator of bone matrix formationRobert Eferl
Research Institute of Molecular Pathology IMP, Vienna, Austria
EMBO J 23:2789-99. 2004..These results uncover a novel function of Fra-1 in regulating bone mass through bone matrix production by osteoblasts and chondrocytes...
Mice lacking JunB are osteopenic due to cell-autonomous osteoblast and osteoclast defectsLukas Kenner
Research Institute of Molecular Pathology, Dr Bohr Gasse 7, A 1030 Vienna, Austria
J Cell Biol 164:613-23. 2004..Thus, these data reveal a novel function of JunB as a positive regulator controlling primarily osteoblast as well as osteoclast activity...
Rhabdomyosarcoma development in mice lacking Trp53 and Fos: tumor suppression by the Fos protooncogeneAlexander Fleischmann
Research Institute of Molecular Pathology, Dr Bohr Gasse 7, A 1030 Vienna, Austria
Cancer Cell 4:477-82. 2003..Moreover, Fos is able to repress Pax7 expression in rhabdomyosarcoma cell lines and primary myoblasts, suggesting a molecular link to genetic alterations involved in human rhabdomyosarcomas...
The AP1 transcription factor Fra2 is required for efficient cartilage developmentFlorian Karreth
Research Institute of Molecular Pathology I M P Vienna, Austria
Development 131:5717-25. 2004..In addition, these mice suffer from a kyphosis-like phenotype, an abnormal bending of the spine. Hence, Fra2 is a novel transcription factor important for skeletogenesis by affecting chondrocyte differentiation...
Psoriasis-like skin disease and arthritis caused by inducible epidermal deletion of Jun proteinsRainer Zenz
Research Institute of Molecular Pathology, Dr Bohr Gasse 7, A 1030 Vienna, Austria
Nature 437:369-75. 2005..Thus, these data support the hypothesis that epidermal alterations are sufficient to initiate both skin lesions and arthritis in psoriasis...
c-Jun/AP-1 controls liver regeneration by repressing p53/p21 and p38 MAPK activityEwa Stepniak
Research Institute of Molecular Pathology IMP, A 1030 Vienna, Austria
Genes Dev 20:2306-14. 2006..These data demonstrate that c-Jun/AP-1 regulates liver regeneration through a novel molecular pathway that involves p53, p21, and the stress kinase p38alpha...
c-Jun regulates eyelid closure and skin tumor development through EGFR signalingRainer Zenz
Research Institute of Molecular Pathology IMP, A 1030, Vienna, Austria
Dev Cell 4:879-89. 2003..Thus, using three experimental systems, we show that EGFR and HB-EGF are regulated by c-Jun, which controls eyelid development, keratinocyte proliferation, and skin tumor formation...
Induction of DNA synthesis in primary mouse hepatocytes is associated with nuclear pro-transforming growth factor alpha and erbb-1 and is independent of c-junElisabeth Schausberger
, University of Vienna, Borschkegasse 8a, Austria
Carcinogenesis 24:835-41. 2003....
Osteoclast size is controlled by Fra-2 through LIF/LIF-receptor signalling and hypoxiaAline Bozec
Research Institute of Molecular Pathology I M P, Dr Bohr Gasse 7, A 1030 Vienna, Austria
Nature 454:221-5. 2008..Thus placenta-induced hypoxia during embryogenesis leads to the formation of giant osteoclasts in young pups. These findings offer potential targets for the treatment of syndromes associated with increased osteoclastogenesis...
Distinct functions of junD in cardiac hypertrophy and heart failureRomeo Ricci
Institute of Molecular Pathology, A 1030 Vienna, Austria
Genes Dev 19:208-13. 2005..These data suggest that junD promotes both adaptive-protective and maladaptive hypertrophy in heart, depending on its expression levels...
