Calu-6 cells were characterized for studying the transcriptional regulation of the human
renin
gene. Analysis of cis-acting elements of the
renin
promoter showed the highest activity within the first 582 bp in serum-free conditions and of the 892 bp in the presence of serum. cAMP activates
renin
mRNA synthesis parallel to
renin
production (20-fold increase) as well
renin
promoter activity (2-fold). cAMP response element and the (-77 to -67) element are both necessary for activation of the
renin
promoter but do not act independently. Functional analysis of
Intron A
revealed the presence of a silencer specific to
renin
-producing cells.
