Coordinated activation of a cluster of MMP genes in response to UVB radiation
Abstract Ultraviolet (UV) B radiation is a dangerous environmental stressor, which can lead to photoaging, inflammation, immune suppression and tumour formation. A recent report has shown the transcriptional activation of several skin-specific genes including matrix metalloproteases (MMPs) in respon...

Abstract Ultraviolet (UV) B radiation is a dangerous environmental stressor, which can lead to photoaging, inflammation, immune suppression and tumour formation.

These findings suggest a coordinated transcriptional activation of genes in the MMP cluster at 11q22.3 and that acetylation of histone H3 at lysine 9 has an important role in the UVB-dependent enhancement of transcription of MMP genes in this region. |
