Negative regulation of the erythropoietin gene expression by the GATA
transcription factors

We examined regulation of the human erythropoietin (Epo) gene through the
GATA sequence in the Epo promoter and showed that Hep3B and HepG2 cells
express human GATA-2 (hGATA-2) mRNA and protein. Nuclear extracts of QT6
cells transfected with hGATA-1, 2, or 3 transcription factors showed
specific binding to the GATA element in the human Epo gene promoter by gel
mobility shift assay. Transient transfection of Hep3B cells with hGATA-1,
2, or 3 showed that each of these transcription factors significantly
decreased the level of expression of Epo mRNA as assessed by a competitive
polymerase chain reaction. Transient transfection of Hep3B cells with
hGATA-1, 2, and 3 and an Epo-reporter gene (growth hormone [GH]) construct
showed significant inhibition of the Epo promoter. Antisense
oligonucleotide for hGATA-2 transcription factor significantly increased
the Epo protein in Hep3B cells under 1% O2 for 24 hours incubation.
Furthermore, transient transfection of Hep3B cells with hGATA-1, 2, and 3
and an Epo-reporter gene (luciferase) construct also showed significant
inhibition of the Epo promoter. However, transfection of the mutated GATA
sequence of the Epo- luciferase gene with hGATA-1, 2, and 3 interfere with
the inhibition of the Epo promoter. We conclude that the hGATA-1, 2, and 3
transcription factors specifically bind to the GATA element in the human
Epo gene promoter and negatively regulate Epo gene expression.
