Overexpression of tyrosine hydroxylase in dopaminergic neurons increased sensitivity to methamphetamine
2023, Neurochemistry InternationalL-DOPA-induced dyskinesia is associated with a deficient numerical downregulation of striatal tyrosine hydroxylase mRNA-expressing neurons
2016, NeuroscienceCitation Excerpt :A similar regulatory response with steady TH mRNA levels but elevated TH protein expression has been described in individual cell bodies of surviving nigral DAergic neurons in early symptomatic MPTP-treated mice (Kozina et al., 2014). The fact that mechanisms other than transcription may predominantly control general levels of TH and the subsequent biosynthesis of neurotransmitter has already been reported in 1991 by Kaneda et al. (1991) showing TH transgenic mice with a 50-fold increased TH mRNA content but only a two- to threefold elevated TH immunoreactivity and enzyme activity. Interestingly and in contrast to highly active phosphorylated TH in nigral neurons, the enzyme activity of TH in murine intrastriatal neurons has been demonstrated to be low in the state of DAergic denervation, as the TH protein is in a non-serine-phosphorylated state (Depboylu, 2014).
Epigenetic, transcriptional and posttranscriptional regulation of the tyrosine hydroxylase gene
2011, International Journal of Developmental NeuroscienceCitation Excerpt :The 5 kb of the human TH gene promoter is not sufficient to achieve correct expression of the reporter gene in transgenic mice (Sasaoka et al., 1992). The region located on the 3′ side of the human TH gene exhibits the characteristics of a cell-specific enhancer (Gandelman et al., 1990; Kaneda et al., 1991). The species-specific regulatory site was mapped in the 261-bp region downstream the last exon of the human TH gene.
Isolation of an enhancer from the rat tyrosine hydroxylase promoter that supports long-term, neuronal-specific expression from a neurofilament promoter, in a helper virus-free HSV-1 vector system
2007, Brain ResearchCitation Excerpt :However, the binding sites for these transcription factors are located proximal to the transcription start site in the TH promoter, and are not present in the initial upstream fragment of the TH promoter (− 0.6 to − 6.8 kb) that supports long-term expression from the NF-H promoter. Studies in transgenic mice have shown that large fragments of the TH promoter, up to 9 kb, are required for catecholaminergic neuron-specific expression (Banerjee et al., 1992; Kaneda et al., 1991; Min et al., 1994; Sasaoka et al., 1992). Of note, transgenic mice containing 0.15 or 2.4 kb fragments of the rat TH promoter (Min et al., 1994), or 0.2 or 2.5 kb fragments of the human TH promoter (Sasaoka et al., 1992), did not support catecholaminergic neuron-specific expression.
