The p100 coactivator, first identified as a coactivator of the Epstein-Barr virus-encoded transcription factor, EBNA-2, in cultured cells, interacts with a number of transcription factors. However, the role of p100 in animals is unclear. We found that the abundance of p100 is closely associated with the lactating state in mammary tissue of mice and cows. Using two antibodies against independent parts of the protein, p100 immunoreactivity was localised to mammary epithelial cells, and was enriched in both nuclei and endoplasmic reticulum/organelle fractions. Stimulation of beta-casein expression in cultured mammary epithelial cells was associated with an increase in abundance of the p100 protein. The relative abundance of p100 mRNA was not altered in mammary tissue throughout the gestation-lactation cycle, indicating that the abundance of p100 is altered by a post-transcriptional mechanism. Further work is required to clarify the function of p100 in mammary epithelial cells.

Expression of transcription factors binding to the activating protein-1 (AP-1) site is induced by estrogens in association with epithelial proliferation in the uterus, but, in the oviduct, the relationship between cell proliferation and differentiation and AP-1 transcription factors is not well understood. In the developing rat oviduct, we found that proliferation and differentiation of epithelial cells were region-dependently regulated by 17beta-estradiol (E2). To determine the role of AP-1 transcription factors in the development of rat oviduct, we performed immunohistochemistry for epithelial c-jun and c-fos proteins in E2-untreated and -treated newborn rats. E2 increased the expression of c-jun and c-fos during proliferation of undifferentiated epithelial cells, but diminished both proteins during accelerated differentiation of ciliated epithelial cells. A pure estrogen receptor (ER) antagonist, ICI 182,780, inhibited changes in their expression during both cell proliferation and differentiation. Importantly, no reduction of c-jun was noted in the epithelial cells of the foxj1-deficient oviduct, which lacks cilia development. This study shows that c-jun and c-fos are regulated during epithelial cell proliferation and differentiation in a region-specific manner. This provides critical information for understanding the molecular and cellular mechanisms of the development of the neonatal oviduct.
