    摘要: Provided herein is, inter alia, methods and compositions useful in therapeutic interrogation of complex physiologic pathways by massively parallel and permissive transcriptional screening. Thus, methods and compositions are provided herein that are useful for high-throughput functional analysis of complex, transcriptionally regulated physiological pathways. While examples are provided relating to nuclear receptors, the methods and composition can be generalized and applied to any class of transcription factor or any class of gene product that can regulate the activity of transcription. For example, in addition to nuclear receptors, the methods and compositions provided herein are generally applicable to all known transcription factors and any gene encoded product that modulates said transcription factor activity. Moreover, data obtained through the methods provided herein are directly comparable thereby facilitating high-throughput functional analysis.

    摘要: The present invention relates to the identification, isolation, sequencing and characterization of a new member of the histone deacetylase family, as well as its transcripts, gene products, associated sequence information, and related genes. The present invention also relates to methods for detecting and diagnosing carriers of normal and mutant alleles of these genes, methods for detecting and diagnosing diseases, methods of identifying genes and proteins related to or interacting with such genes and proteins, methods of screening for potential therapeutics for diseases, methods of treatment for diseases, and to cell lines and animal models useful in screening for and evaluating potentially useful therapies for diseases. In a particular aspect of the present invention, a novel family member, HDAC7, is described and its interaction with SMRT/N-CoR and mSin3A, its biochemical properties and subcellular localization are characterized. In addition, evidence is provided that the HDAC4, 5, and 7 deacetylases may mediate nuclear receptor repression. The findings described here indicate that two or more classes of histone deacetylases can collectively contribute to SMRT/N-CoR action and that at least some deacetylases may directly associate with SMRT/N-CoR in a mSin3A independent fashion.

    摘要: Disclosed herein are methods for enhancing one or more effects of exercise in a subject by administering a PPARδ agonist (e.g., GW1516) to the subject in combination with an exercise program. Also disclosed are gene expression profiles unique to the combination of agonist-induced PPARδ activation and exercise. Such profiles are useful, at least, in methods for identifying the use of performance-enhancing drugs in exercised subjects (such as, professional or athletes). Direct interactions between PPARδ and exercised-induced kinases (e.g., AMPK or its subunits, AMPK α1 and/or AMPK α2) also are disclosed. Such protein-protein interactions provide new targets for identification of useful compounds.
