Abstract
Transcriptional regulation of binding interactions between nucleoproteins and the hormone response element (RE) of the rat haptoglobin (Hp) gene was investigated in adult and fetal livers of rats exposed to inflammation on day 19 of pregnancy. Nuclear extracts from the embryonal liver displayed a barely detectable binding-affinity for hormone RE, but in extracts from the adult liver it was noticeable. The acute phase reaction of the mother promoted an increase of Hp gene expression in both adult and fetal livers, relying on stage-specific changes in hormone RE binding activities of nucleoplasmic proteins. The results indicated that the elevation of Hp gene expression in fetal liver to the steady basal level found in adults required the induction of newtrans-acting proteins, whereas an overexpression of this gene in adult acute phase liver relied essentially on an increase in the binding-affinity of the preexisting hormone RE binding proteins.
