From: Activity of the porcine gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor gene promoter is partially conferred by a distal gonadotrope specific element (GSE) within an upstream enhancing region, two proximal GSEs and a retinoid X receptor binding site

Figure 1

The -5118 porcine GnRHR promoter is cell-specific and functional in gonadotrope-derived αT3-1 cells. A, Cells were transfected with -5118pGL3, -m600pGL3 or pGL3. Unique letters indicate values that are significantly different from one another (P < 0.05). B, Transfections were performed with cell lines derived from gonadotrope or non-gonadotrope origin. Cells were transfected with -5118pGL3 (upper panel) or RSVpGL3 (lower panel) and expressed as activity over pGL3. An asterisk indicates values, within each test vector, that are greater than pGL3 (P < 0.05).
