The PDGF family of ligands is comprised of A, B, C, and D chains. Here, we provide the first functional characterization of the PDGF-C promoter. We examined 797 bp of the human PDGF-C promoter and identified several putative recognition elements for Sp1, Ets Egr-1, and Smad. The proximal region of the PDGF-C promoter bears a remarkable resemblance to a comparable region of the PDGF-A promoter (1). Binding and transient transfection analysis in primary vascular smooth muscle cells revealed that PDGF-C, like PDGF-A, is under the transcriptional control of the zinc finger nuclear protein Egr-1 (early growth response-1). Electrophoretic mobility shift analysis using both smooth muscle cell nuclear extracts and recombinant protein revealed that Egr-1 and Sp1 bind this region of the PDGF-C promoter (Oligo C, -35 to -1). Egr-1 competes with Sp1 for overlapping binding sites even when the former is at a stoichiometric disadvantage. Reverse transcriptase PCR and supershift analysis demonstrate that fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) stimulates both Egr-1 and PDGF-C mRNA expression in a time-dependent and transient manner and that FGF-2-inducible Egr-1 binds the proximal PDGF-C promoter. FGF-2-inducible PDGF-C expression was completely abrogated using catalytic DNA (DNAzymes) targeting Egr-1 but not by its scrambled counterpart. Moreover, using pharmacological inhibitors we demonstrate the critical role of ERK but not JNK in FGF-2-inducible PDGF-C expression. These findings thus demonstrate that PDGF-C transcription, activated by FGF-2, is mediated by Egr-1 and its upstream kinase ERK."xsd:string
