Anti-NR4A1 (Early response protein NAK1, Nuclear hormone receptor NUR/77)

NR4A1(NUCLEAR RECEPTOR SUBFAMILY 4, GROUP A, MEMBER 1), also called NAK1, GFRP1, TR3, NUR77 or NGFIB, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NR4A1 gene, which is also a member of the Nur nuclear receptor family of intracellular transcription factors. The NR4A1 gene is mapped on 12q13.13. NR4A1 is involved in cell cycle mediation, inflammation and apoptosis. It plays a key role in mediating inflammatory responses in macrophages. In addition, subcellular localization of the NR4A1 protein appears to play a key role in the survival and death of cells. Nr4a1 was overexpressed in Wnt1 -transformed mouse mammary cells. Nr4a1 was also induced by lithium, a Wnt1 mimic, and the Nr4a1 promoter was activated by lithium and beta-catenin, a Wnt1 downstream effector. In contrast, human NR4A1 was not upregulated by beta-catenin, indicating that this gene is regulated differently in human and mouse cells. Adenoviral expression of Nr4a1 induced genes involved in gluconeogenesis, stimulated glucose production both in vitro and in vivo, and raised blood glucose levels.
