Physical Interaction Between Retinoic Acid Receptor and Sp1: Mechanism for Induction of Urokinase by Retinoic Acid

Yasuhiro Suzuki, Jun Shimada, Koichi Shudo, Masatoshi Matsumura, Massimo P. Crippa, and Soichi Kojima

From the Laboratory of Molecular Cell Sciences, Tsukuba Life Science Center, The Institute of Physical and Chemical Research (RIKEN), Tsukuba, Ibaraki, Japan; the Institute of Applied Biochemistry, University of Tsukuba, Tennoudai, Tsukuba, Ibaraki, Japan; the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, University of Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan; and the Laboratory of Molecular Genetics, DIBIT-H. S. Raffaele, Milano, Italy.

Induction of urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) by retinoic acid (RA) is the initial event preceding certain subsequent biological changes in vascular endothelial cells. We investigated the molecular mechanism by which RA stimulates the expression of uPA, which lacks a canonical RA receptor (RAR)-responsive element, in bovine and human aortic endothelial cells. Upon stimulation with RA, mRNA levels of RARalpha and beta  transiently increased in parallel with the induction of uPA, and this increase was inhibited by cycloheximide. Results of transient transfection of RAR/RXR cDNAs and experiments using specific agonists and antagonists suggested that uPA induction is dependent upon RAR (initially, RARalpha ) with the help of RXRalpha . Deletion analysis of the uPA promoter suggested that RAR/RXR acts on GC box region within the uPA promoter. This was further supported by inhibition of Sp1 binding to this region. Coimmunoprecipitation studies, glutathione S-transferase pull-down experiment, and mammalian two-hybrid assays suggested a physical interaction between RAR/RXR and Sp1. Furthermore, gel shift studies showed that the binding of Sp1 to the uPA GC box is significantly potentiated in the presence of RARs/RXRs. Finally, Sp1 and RAR/RXR synergistically enhanced the transactivation activity of the uPA promoter. These results suggest that (1) RA induces RARs mainly via RARalpha and that (2) RAR/RXR physically and functionally interact with Sp1, resulting in a potentiation of uPA transcription.
