In humans, NKG2D ligands (NKG2DL) are encoded by MIC and ULBP proteins. NKG2DL exhibit highly restricted expression in healthy tissues but are widely expressed in tumors. However, regulation of each NKG2DL differs substantially in different cancer cells. In this study, we characterized the mechanisms that regulate the expression of ULBP1. We show that the transcription of ULBP1 strictly depends on the binding of Sp1 and Sp3 to a CRE(1) site located in the ULBP1 minimal promoter. The mutation or deletion of this Sp1/Sp3 binding site abolished the transcription of ULBP1. It also diminished the transactivation of ULBP1 promoter by Sp3 overexpression, but not by Sp1, indicating that Sp3 is the main transcription factor that regulates ULBP1 through the CRE(1) site. Experiments in SL2 cells showed that the ULBP1 promoter was inactive in the absence of the Sp proteins and indicate that Sp3 is the essential activator of ULBP1 transcription, because the overexpression of Sp3 up-regulated its promoter activity > 500-fold. Additionally, we demonstrated that AP-2alpha repressed the expression of ULBP1 in HeLa cells by interfering with the binding of Sp3 and Sp1 to the ULBP1 promoter. These data indicate that Sp1, Sp3, and AP-2alpha may play an important role in the immunosurveillance against cancer. Finally, the definition of ULBP1 regulation may have implications for development of new therapeutic strategies against cancer cells."xsd:string |
