abstract：:We previously reported that hormones important for the normal growth and function of FRTL-5 rat thyroid cells, TSH, or its cAMP signal plus insulin or IGF-I, could transcriptionally suppress constitutive and gamma-interferon (IFN)-increased synthesis of the 90K protein (also known as Mac-2BP). Here we cloned the 5'-fl...
