From the B-MYB is a ubiquitously expressed transcription
factor involved in the regulation of cell survival, proliferation, and
differentiation. In an attempt to isolate B-MYB-regulated genes that
may explain the role of B-MYB in cellular processes, representational
difference analysis was performed in neuroblastoma cell lines with
different levels of B-MYB expression. One of the genes, the
mRNA levels of which were enhanced in B-MYB expressing
cells, was ApoJ/ClusterinSGP-2/TRMP-2 (ApoJ/Clusterin),
previously implicated in regulation of apoptosis and tumor
progression. Here we show that the human ApoJ/Clusterin gene contains a
Myb binding site in its 5' flanking region, which interacts with
bacterially synthesized B-MYB protein and mediates B-MYB-dependent transactivation of the ApoJ/Clusterin
promoter in transient transfection assays. Endogenous ApoJ/Clusterin
expression is induced in mammalian cell lines following transient
transfection of a B-MYB cDNA. Blockage of secreted
clusterin by a monoclonal antibody results in increased apoptosis of
neuroblastoma cells exposed to the chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin.
Thus, activation of ApoJ/Clusterin by B-MYB may be an important step in
the regulation of apoptosis in normal and diseased cells.
