Human CYP3A7 and CYP3A4 are expressed in fetal
and adult livers, respectively, although the 5'-flanking regions of the
two genes show 90% homology. The purpose of this study was to clarify the mechanism(s) responsible for the transcriptional regulation of the
CYP3A7 gene in human hepatoma HepG2 cells that showed fetal phenotypes. Transfection studies using a series of the
CYP3A7 or CYP3A4 promoter-luciferase chimeric
genes identified a nuclear factor
B (NF-
B)-like element between
nucleotides
2326 and
2297 that conferred the transcriptional
activation of the CYP3A7 gene. A 1-base pair
mismatch within the corresponding region of the CYP3A4 gene
was sufficient for a differential enhancer activity. A gel shift assay
using nuclear extracts from HepG2 cells showed that Sp1 and Sp3 bound
to the NF-
B-like element of the CYP3A7 but not
CYP3A4 gene. Specific activation of the CYP3A7
promoter by Sp1 and Sp3 was confirmed by a co-transfection of the
p3A7NF-
B or p3A4NF-
B reporter gene with Sp1 or Sp3 expression
plasmid into Drosophila cells, which lacked endogenous Sp
family. Additionally, introduction of mutations into binding sites for
hepatocyte nuclear factor 3
, upstream stimulatory factor 1, and a basic transcription element in the proximal promoter attenuated
luciferase activity to 20% of the level seen with the intact
CYP3A7 promoter. Thus, we conclude that the expression of
the CYP3A7 gene in HepG2 cells is cooperatively regulated
by Sp1, Sp3, hepatocyte nuclear factor 3
, and upstream stimulatory
factor 1.
