| Abstract | Forkhead box protein A1 (Foxa1) is an evolutionarily conserved winged helix transcription factor that was traditionally considered to be involved in embryonic development and cell differentiation. However, little is known about the role of Foxa1 in oxidative-stress-induced apoptosis. In this study, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced apoptosis, upregulation of Foxa1, and the role of Foxa1 in the regulation of bcl2 gene expression were studied in A549 type II pneumocytes. H2O2 upregulated Foxa1 mRNA and protein in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Overexpression of Foxa1 promoted apoptosis, whereas Foxa1 deficiency, induced by antisense oligonucleotides, decreased A549 cell apoptosis induced by H2O2, as shown by flow cytometry. Moreover, Foxa1 overexpression decreased the expression of bcl2, while Foxa1 depletion increased the expression of bcl2. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay and chromatin immunoprecipitation revealed that Foxa1 bound to bcl2 promoter, and H2O2 promoted its DNA binding activity. Luciferase reporter showed that Foxa1 also decreased the transcription activity of bcl2 promoter under normal conditions and oxidative stress. These results indicate that Foxa1 plays a pro-apoptotic role by inhibiting the expression of anti-apoptotic gene bcl2. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
