Enhanced expression of recombinant human cyclooxygenase 1 from stably-transfected Drosophila melanogaster S2 cells by dimethyl sulfoxide is mediated by up-regulation of nitric oxide synthase and transcription factor Kr-h1.

Recombinant human cyclooxygenase 1 (COX-1) was expressed from stably-transfected Drosophila melanogaster S2 (S2) cells. DMSO improved the expression of recombinant COX-1 by 180 %. DMSO increased the expression of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) at both the RNA and protein levels; NOS expression was closely correlated with the synthesis of recombinant COX-1 mRNA in stably-transfected S2 cells. DMSO also induced the gene encoding Kr-h1 which binds to the CACCC element of the metallothionein promoter to enhance the expression of recombinant COX-1. Therefore, DMSO improves the expression of recombinant COX-1 via NOS and/or the transcription factor Kr-h1.[1]
