A potentiating effect of PMA has been reported in thyroid carcinoma cells [ 20 ] but, in contrast to LS1034 cells, normal IFNg response in those cells was only partially lost as a result of malignant transformation.
We have therefore begun to examine ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), which are preinvasive malignant lesions derived from epithelial cells, and fibroadenomas, which are non-malignant tumors composed of epithelial and stromal cells [ 32 33 ] . So far we have analyzed one DCIS, which was BP1-positive, and two fibroadenomas, both of which were BP1-positive, compared with no expression in the matched normal tissue for each fibroadenoma (data not shown).
The latter cohort of patients was part of a clinical trial of erlotinib for patients with bronchioloalveolar carcinoma.
Our lung metastasis models in the rat also represent these two main patterns: the L44 (adenocarcinoma) shows a diffuse architecture and the L42 (squamous cell carcinoma) grows with a basal histological architecture.
C/EBP is previously reported to be an important accessory factor for transactivation by several other transcription factors [ 26 ] . C/EBPβ was shown to transactivate the α1-acid glycoprotein gene promoter even when mutated in the DNA-binding domain, and this activation appeared to depend on protein-protein interaction with glucocorticoid receptor through the leucine zipper region [ 27 ] . Recently, a conserved domain in C/EBPα and C/EBPβ was shown to mediate cAMP responsiveness, strengthening the fact that C/EBP may be characterized as a cAMP-responsive nuclear regulator [ 28 29 ] . On the COX-2 promoter in granulosa cells, cAMP-mediated regulation was shown to be mediated primarily by an E-box that bind USF1 and USF2 isoforms in a manner resembling the RIIβ E-box in Sertoli cells [ 30 ] . Transactivation of the COX-2 gene in skin carcinoma cells is highly dependent on this E-box together with a C/EBP binding site that bind C/EBPβ and C/EBPδ [ 31 ] . These data strengthens a model of formation of a cAMP-responsive unit (CRU) containing USF and C/EBP.
