From the The vitamin D receptor (VDR) is a member of the
steroid/retinoid receptor superfamily of nuclear receptors that has
potential tumor-suppressive functions. We show here that VDR interacts
with and is regulated by BAG1L, a nuclear protein that binds heat shock 70-kDa (Hsp70) family molecular chaperones. Endogenous BAG1L can be
co-immunoprecipitated with VDR from prostate cancer cells (ALVA31; LNCaP) in a ligand-dependent manner. BAG1L, but not shorter
non-nuclear isoforms of this protein (BAG1; BAG1M/Rap46), markedly
enhanced, in a ligand-dependent manner, the ability of VDR
to trans-activate reporter gene plasmids containing a vitamin D
response element in transient transfection assays. Mutant BAG1L lacking
the C-terminal Hsc70-binding domain suppressed (in a
concentration-dependent fashion) VDR-mediated trans-activation
of vitamin D response element-containing reporter gene plasmids,
without altering levels of VDR or endogenous BAG1L protein, suggesting
that it operates as a trans-dominant inhibitor of BAG1L. Gene
transfer-mediated elevations in BAG1L protein levels in a prostate
cancer cell line (PC3), which is moderately responsive to VDR
ligands, increased the ability of natural

direct regulator of VDR, which enhances its trans-activation function
and improves tumor cell responses to growth-suppressive VDR ligands.
