DSHN is a novel activator of small heterodimer partner (SHP, NR0B2). DSHN transcriptionally activates SHP mRNA, but also stabilizes the SHP protein by preventing its ubiquitination and degradation.
ChEBI: 5-(diethylsulfamoyl)-3-hydroxy-2-naphthalenecarboxylic acid is a member of naphthalenes and a sulfonic acid derivative.
DSHN transcriptionally activated Shp mRNA, but also stabilized the SHP protein by preventing its ubiquitination and degradation. Second, this study identified Ccl2 as a new SHP target gene by RNA-seq. This study showed that activation of SHP by DSHN repressed Ccl2 expression and secretion by inhibiting p65 activation of CCL2 promoter activity, as demonstrated in vivo in Shp-/- mice and in vitro in HCC cells with SHP overexpression and knockdown._x000D_
